Happy Friday! (Unless you're like me... sick and studying for midterms. BLECH)
Now that Halloween is less than two weeks away, I wanted to bring you two polishes from the Hocus Pocus Collection by 365 Days of Color! BUT I had to wait until they were re-stocked so you could enjoy them too!
The Hocus Pocus Collection is named after the famed Disney movie, starring Bette Midler, a pre-SATC Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Naijimi.
So let's take a look!

Swatch and Review: Zoya Ornate Collection
It's here! It's FINALLY here! I've been so excited for this collection from the moment the press release hit my inbox.
The Zoya Ornate Collection features six shades, three scattered holographic polishes, two foils, and a bar glitter. That's a pretty awesome variety for a seasonal release, which is usually saved for the same silver, gold, green, red, blue, and white shimmer/glitter bombs from year to year.
Also... five out of the six polishes share names with superheroes. So, that's not exactly a negative for me!
Warning, this is going to be a pic-heavy post!

Nfu Oh 52 and butter LONDON Bluey
It's football Sunday... and I've already changed my mani since yesterday! Well, sort of.
On Saturday, I reviewed butter London Bluey and wasn't blown away by the color. However, not inclined to take off the polish and do it over (and let's be honest, with a research report due Monday morning at 9am), I reached for an effects top coat.
And grabbed Nfu-Oh 52!
Nfu-Oh 52 is a blue jelly base with emerald flakies. They're really multi-dimensional and change based on the shade they're layered over.
I feel like the ocean is literally on my nails.
Are you still aboard the flakie train?
