Hello!
This month's Polish Pickup collection is right around the corner, and this month's theme is Horror Movies--right on time for some awesome polishes to find their way to you in time for Halloween! Today I have a beauty to show you from The Lady Varnishes, inspired by Phantom of the Opera!
The Lady Varnishes Red Death is a blood-red scattered holo:

This is two coats with topcoat, and the formula/application was perfect.
I've spent much of my time as a polish fanatic seeking out the perfect red holo, and in terms of scattered holos, this is it. This red has a coppery edge to it because of the shimmer and the light that the holo throws, and it's a lovely deeper type of red for fall. I'm obsessed, and you can be sure you'll see this polish again both for Halloween and Christmas nail art.
I had to do a negative-space image with this to show off the gorgeous holo in some nail art, so I stamped over it with Dixie Plates Mega Mani Mix 02 with Kaleidoscope White:

And I couldn't resist seeing how the holo flecks looked matted:

I do like this matted, but have to admit, I think this one's prettier in its full shiny glory! What do you think?
You can pick up this beauty between September 7th and 10th during Polish Pickup's sale (see what I did there?!), and in the meantime you can check out the other lovelies The Lady Varnishes whips up here. And both Polish Pickup and The Lady Varnishes have Facebook groups if you want to keep up with upcoming events and such. :)
