Halloween Ugly-Pretty

 This is my first post using Nostalgic Lacquer!  Hooray!  I was recently able to snatch up some of her Halloween limited edition polishes as well as regular polishes I've been wanting for some time now.
 I ordered them from the Nostalgic Lacquer shop site here.  The hard part is that you have to have perfect timing in terms of when the shop is stocked.  I got lucky and was tipped off on a nail polish forum.  I expect you can also get updates on Facebook (I'm merely speculating).
 Here I've used three somewhat generous coats of B*tchcraft polish, topped with two coats of Butter London top coat.
 When I first started painting my nails, I was a little taken aback by the ugliness of the base color.  I say that with a lot of love for all colors, I really do!  I was just worried at how it was going to turn out all on its own, without any underwear.
 By the time I was done painting, I really loved it!  It's so ugly it's PRETTY!  This polish rocks.  I love the glitters and the jelly base.  Despite having a few small bubbles, I'm really pleased with this polish and mani.  Also, the application was quite easy.
I got several compliments on it today, so that is always a good feeling.  Do you love it, or maybe not so much?

P.S.  My previous mani, with Hits Borealis, lasted a whole entire week.  A WEEK!  That is absolutely nutso.  I still can't believe it.  :)  I think that is a personal record!

  3. Love it! The glitters make the base color wearable. I need to track this color down.
