Hello!
I've got another Polish Pickup polish for your viewing pleasure today: 6 Harts Riverdale Road Signs!
You might remember that this month's theme is 'Urban Legends', which I think is super cool and fun for October, and I'm learning about a bunch of spooky urban legends I've never heard of before...I'm embarrassed to say I'd never heard of Riverdale Road in Colorado, which apparently is not just the basis for a single urban legend, but a whole cluster of them. Ghosts that talk to you and disappear, mysterious disappearances, the whole nine. But my favorite of all the stories is something that's most definitely not a legend--there are 'gates of hell' on the road, iron gates build by a man who lost his mind and burned down his mansion while his family was asleep inside! He was never caught...

Description and review: Riverdale Road Signs is a silver metallic with red flakes and a spray of holo sparkle. I love this for the inspiration--the silvery white is like a ghost, and the red flakes are like the blood of the road's victims...And it could also be flakes of rust from those rusty gates of hell...
The polish also made me think of another urban legend, the Bloody Mary legend. When I was growing up, the legend was that if you said 'Bloody Mary' three times in a mirror, she'd appear--and possibly kill you! This polish looks to me like a foggy mirror with splashes of blood on it, so I had to do my very own Bloody Mary mani:

I'm gonna just admit it--this creeped me out a little bit when I was editing it! That face, if you stare at it too long, is just spooky...
You can buy 6 Harts Riverdale Road Signs during October's Polish Pickup sale from Oct. 4-7th. It's a bargain at only $10.00, and there are only 80 bottles available, so SET THAT ALARM. In the meantime you can check out 6 Harts other beauties here, and come hang out with the Polish Pickup Pack here.
