Victorian Varnish Do Not Waste My Tear
Cap: 60
A stunning red-violet copper magnetic. When magnetized, it reveals a deep dark purple base loaded with scattered holo and holo flakies.
The lighting and camera truly makes this polish look totally different! I used a cool magnet combo to get a halo and a glass bead on the middle two nails. See how I did it in the video below!

Little Box of Horrors: April 2026

PR Sample

I’ve been spending some quality time with this beauty from Victorian Varnish lately. Sometimes a polish is so complex that you just have to wear it for a few days to really appreciate the depth. I finally have the full swatch gallery ready for this stunning gift from VV! For those that ordered it, I know the wait for shipping can feel like forever, so hopefully these photos give you a little excitement for your upcoming mail day. It is definitely worth the wait. Polish name checks out, it is otherworldy!

This shade was a limited release at Little Box of Horrors and is currently sold out, but keep an eye on VV's site and socials for similar magical finishes!

Another Dimension - dark smoky blue base with silvery blue line once magnetized reveals a teal/aqua/green shimmer. Very shifty and shimmery!
