Forget Me Not Friday- STARRILY: The Headless Horseman

Pin It
Starrily The Headless Horseman

Hey guys! IT'S FRIDAY! YOU MADE IT! YAYYYY! Today I have a super fun polish for this week's edition of Forget Me Not Friday. It's a multichrome with some contrasting glitter swimming in it. It's a Halloween polish, but I say we should have a little more Halloween all year long ;] Check it out below, it's a pretty sweet polish!

Starrily The Headless Horseman is a polish that "shifts from blue/green to violet. Contains matte and holo orange and purple glitters". This shifty polish is super pretty and the contrasting hex glitters make it a lot of fun. It's a little on the sheer side, but you can build it up. I chose to layer it over a darker color to cut down on the whole visible nail line problem I have when my nails are longer. I did have a super hard time getting a lot of the hexes out :[ They really enjoyed sticking to the sides. I even rolled and shaked it a little bit.

This was released as part of a Halloween collection, by the way. I've never tried this brand. But I saw this polish back in October and knew I HAD to have it! It comes with a super cute unicorn head box. I'd show it to you, but Scout (my dog) thought it was a nice snack! At least he's a picky eater and the bottle was unharmed *phew*

I did 2 coats of The Headless Horseman over Pure Ice Party Hard (which is a deep, navy blue).  It really came alive once I layered it over the darker color! It had a nice smooth application and covered nicely. The only issue I had, again, was the glitter enjoying the sides of the bottle.  The dry time was alright. I think next time I might wait a little bit because I smudged it pretty good RIGHT after I finished my swatches.
