The January shop is almost here, and it is the perfect place to find something spooky even in the middle of winter. Wishlisting opens on January 18th, giving you a few days to browse the site and plan your haul before the shop officially opens on the 22nd at 12 PM Pacific. Today I have a few stunning highlights to share from Victorian Varnish and LynB Designs that are sure to haunt your wishlist.
Just a reminder that the shop closes on the 30th. If you place multiple orders using the same email address, the shop will combine them for you. Orders of three or more will just have a small dollar handling fee per combined order.
Let’s dive into the swatches.
When You’re Good to Mama - blackened plum to pale pink thermal base filled with red to purple shifting flakies and added cherry red holo glitters
Cadou Claws - Magnetic that shifts from gold/aqua/cyan/green/blue at extreme angles when magnetized reveals a beautiful vintage reddish brown base with a Victorian twist - micro red glitters make this polish pop! I used Captivate with this, keep scrolling to find out more about Captivate!
Captivate - Captivate was created to stop the bulk of adding more polish to re-activate and captivate or achieve the magnetic effect with magnetic polishes.
Apply on top of dry or nearly dry mangetic polish by using a very light swipe or "floating" technique, and then remagnetize easily in 30 to 60 seconds! The design will hold well when dry and then you can top coat as usual. You can also magnetize after top coat, but I didn't find the need to do that with this magnetic polish - keep in mind though that some more/fasterv particle spread than others.
Sanguis Virginis - A vampy blood red base gives way to a massive sparkle filled with different sizes of red glitters

All of my swatches are shown in two thick coats with topcoat and had no formula issues unless otherwise stated. All photography uses a neutral color temperature bulb with white bounce card. My nails are natural with no enhancements and no blurring/cream base, I have a fairly prominent VNL.
