Victorian Varnish Clockwise Divination - a sheer light blue with magical metallic-like flakies that range in blues, silvers, aquas, and violet at extreme angles, with a gorgeous large particle shimmer in pink, violet, peach, and bronze. This can be used as a topper over Devine Consortium.

LynB Designs: POTM - The Nightmare Persists

If you are looking for a polish that transition perfectly from a sophisticated daytime look to a fun nighttime surprise, the latest Polish of the Month from LynB Designs is one you need to see. While we often focus on monthly collaboration shops, this particular beauty is a solo release that is already available for you to grab right now at https://lynbdesigns.store/

Nightmare Persists - dark magenta linear holo with pink glow in the dark. I was so smitten by this when I swatched it, that I completely missed taking a glow-in-the-dark shot. There are some on the shop site though, thank goodness. It is the perfect balance of moody and playful, making it a great addition to your collection for any season.
