I found the collection at Spasation (specifically the one inside Edmonton's Londonderry mall) selling them for $10 CDN per bottle and picked up Teenage Dream (the pink glitter one) and Black Shatter ("deep asphalt black with a shattered texture").
The quality is pretty good and I couldn't wait to get home to try it out. "Teenage Dream" is super glittery and would be super fun to wear to a party, although might be a little too "loud" to the office.
The inside of the black tag on "Black Shatter" says to "apply one coat of Black Shatter over any completely dry Katy shade for an irresistible "shattered" look. The polish must have some paint thinner or something that separates when painted over another polish. I initially painted Black Shatter over Teenage Dream but felt Teenage Dream lost a lot of the glitter when Black Shatter was painted over top. I then used American Apparel's matte purple Dynasty and got this effect.
Overall, I love both shades and I suspect Black Shatter will be a very popular "shade" to get a hold of. So if you find it in stores, pick it up asap! My only hope for future releases is that OPI possibility releases Black Shatter in other shades as well. Black can be harsh to carry off at times.
