Not only are these shades pretty but they're a game changer. They pick up and transfer perfectly for stamping the first time, every time I stamped. They roll off the stamper beautifully, and clean up is a breeze. You need these, it would be crime not to have them in your stash.

Blush Lacquers: Bane of My Existence

Bane of My Existence is the November Polish Pickup contribution from Blush Lacquers.

Blush's fandom theme is Batman. More specifically the polish is inspired by Batman's rival, Bane, played by Tom Hardy in the Dark Knight Rises.
