We're All Mad Here is a violet toned orchid jelly with red/green chameleon flakes, red/green aurora, chameleon iridescent glitters and holographic pigment. Inspired by Alice in Wonderland.

That purple and those flakes had me at hello. Fantastic formula, opaque enough for my liking in two coats.

Addicted to Love is a sheer cool pink base with a strong red/violet to gold shifting glass fleck shimmer, a soft holo, and pink-gold-green colour shifting iridescent flakes. Inspired by the scene from Harry Potter where Hermione Granger and Ginny Weasley are looking at the love potions at Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes.

Flash! Bang! Boom! is a deep red linear holo with gold shimmer. Inspired by DC Comic's The Flash superhero.

One coater with a fantastic formula.






A Gem of Many Talents is a linear holo with a pearlescent-like effect created by an iridescent shimmer that shifts from teal to blue to pink-violet, filled with holo flake and iridescent flakes in blue-green-pink-gold. Inspired by Steven Universe.

Has an ethereal iridescence that's hard to capture under bright lighting since the base is almost white. Good formula, opaque in two coats.

Swamp Water has a swampy green base infused with a fine linear holo pigment and loaded with a coppery, golden shimmer to represent a beautiful sunrise. Inspired by New Orleans.

Love the hit of coppery shimmer and the effect of the holo makes it look 3D, super difficult to capture in a still shot. Fantastic formula, opaque in one coat.

Sultry but Damaged is a forest green base with a burnt orange/red multichrome shimmer, scattered holographic pigment, and iridescent chameleon flakes that shift between aqua/green/purple and red/gold/copper. Inspired by Kady Orloff-Diaz of "The Magicians", and the apt (but also tongue-in-cheek) name assigned to her by Professor Mayakovsky during her time at Brakebills South.

Is it green or copper or ? Such a morphing polish, Karen has really outdone herself with this! Fantastic formula, opaque in two coats.

Raspberry shades like this are my favorites, the blue sparks really make the polish pop. Fantastic formula, opaque in two coats.

Poor Unfortunate Souls is a black jelly representing Ursula's dress with its gelatinous appearance. Holographic flakies, and purple translucent flakies to represent her skin. Inspired by Ursula, a female villain.

The flake and holo are super bright and not hindered by the dark base at all. Magic in a bottle. Fantastic formula, opaque in two coats.
