Hella Handmade Creations: October 2026

Welcome back to the blog! This month's Hella Handmade Creations (HHC) shop opening is an exciting one! This massive post features 14 products across 53 photos, featuring their Holiday special editions, their charity event for Imagination Library, the usual monthly pre-orders, encores, and overstock!

That's a lot, are ya'll still with me?
My review includes these new items from Hula Moon, Nirvana Lacquer, LynBDesigns, and Victorian Varnish. It's a very nice variety of shimmering solar polishes and rich glitters to luxurious body cream and acetone additives, grab a cup of tea, coffee, boba, or other beverage and dig into all the swatches and details with me!




200 Cap
Be Careful John, Lest You Suffer Vertigo From The Dizzying Heights Of a Your Moral Ground has a brown orange base with shimmer that gives a bronzey caramel finish. I really love this butterscotch shade, its perfect for fall!

200 Cap
It’s Beginning to Cost a Lot Like Christmas! has micro holo flakes and green shimmer in a green base that give a bright grinch green vibe. The second polish this month of Hula Moon's with this finish, which I adore and that vibrant shade of green has me!

I Will Always Love You is a peachy polish with prismatic silver holographic flakes and white shimmer. Such an unusual finish and rather difficult to describe because it is certainly unique. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say it is kind of like twinkle fabric. It shimmers but..in a totally different way. Definitely worth a grab to experience this new finish!

200 Cap
Ice, Ice, Maybe? is an icy light blue base with micro flakies and iridescent shimmer. I so love the denim, yet somehow icy vibe of this polish. What a "cool" concept!

200 Cap
Red Shoes & Rhinestones is a rich ruby red with shifting shimmer and subtle reflective sparkle. This is a kind of de-saturated berry-leaning red which I love. It reminds me of a cozy Christmas, watchin the snow fall (could you imagine holo snow flakes!?!) outside the window.

150 Cap
Evergreen Envy is a holly green with olive undertones, a glistening shimmer ranging in green/gold/bronze, and beautiful metallic green glitters in assorted sizes that dazzle. My gosh, this polish! It is so pretty and reminiscent of a Christmas tree glistening with golden lights (that shimmer, ya'll!).

300 Cap
My Little Butterfly Wings is a SOLAR Polish- Pink ( indoors) to Purple outdoors (UV light) with a beautiful delicate wing like shimmer running throughout. I used a UV light to turn this shade purple and lemme tell ya, the effect barely lasted long enough for me to move the light away and snap a photo. I had to be fast like The Flash! You will definitely want to be out in the sun to see it longer.
$4 per bottle sold will be donated to Imagination Library.

300 Cap
Til Death Do Us Part is a bright red jelly with assorted glitters in metallic reds and blacks. Comes with a small baggie of skulls to decorate your mani! ... and I totally spaced and didn't photograph the skull glitters. I am so sorry ya'll, that polish was just mesmerizing!! Yep, that's my story I'm stickin to! (There are pictures of them in the HHC listing or check for pictures on Valerie's IG, she took some stunning shots of them!)
