Carrie
This is my first polish from Cupcake Polish, and it’s a doozie.
Cupcake Polish “Carrie” is inspired by Carrie, specifically her blood spattered look at the end of Prom Night. At first, I thought it was just a red sparkle glitter part in a clear base…but I was wrong. It’s a thermal nail polish! Check out my ring finger and pinky – the base of the polish turned black!
Initially, I thought – of course, Carrie is vintage Halloween because it was made in 1976…but then I remembered that I ALSO was made in 1976. Does that mean I am vintage, too? I need to rest…
With all this glitter, I was expecting it to be a pain in the ass to remove…and it was. Have the exfoliating cotton rounds ready for scrubbing with this polish.
This is two coats of “Carrie” over Cuticula Mic Drop Base Coat in “Melt Down” and under Cuticula Limitless Top Coat in “Champagne Toast“.
Polish Pickup September 2024 – Vintage Halloween
Halloween, Halloween…my favorite holiday! I love Halloween so much that I made it my wedding anniversary. This September’s Polish Pickup theme is “Vintage Halloween”, and the polishes did not disappoint. I wanted them all, but I tried to be selective and only select polishes that were inspired by things I really love, as well as not obvious dupes for others in my collection…
Cadillacquer “The Evil Dead” ($14) is inspired by…DUH…The Evil Dead.
Cupcake Polish “Carrie” ($13.50) is likewise inspired by Carrie.
Hit the Bottle Polishes “Elvira” ($9.50) is inspired by the Mistress of the Dark herself…Elvira.
Last, but not least, Cuticula Limitless Top Coat in “Zombie Juice” ($10) is inspired by…the juice that comes out of zombies? Unfortunately, the bottle I received seems to have come from a bad batch – it doesn’t dry. I’ve reached out to Cuticula directly for a resolution…hoping for a replacement bottle soon!
I am so excited about trying ALL of these polishes!
