Lurid Lacquer has a lot coming our way in November! This post will be covering the November collection, which is Waiting for Someone Who Never Comes, as well as the individual shades from the Halloween Countdown Calendar – also known as “An Unshakable Sense of Foreboding Part I’ … AND the Cracked Polish x Lurid Lacquer duo!
To see all 23 shades in this post swatched live, be sure to check out my YouTube channel below:
Content warning on content in this post, November’s collection deals with deep grief, suicide, loss of a sibling.
The November collection is all brand new, and that’s an 8 piece collection. Lurid Lacquer’s poem, Waiting for Someone Who Never Comes, is about her family’s first holiday gathering after the loss of her brother.
Returning to the shop (in a sense) is the An Unshakable Sense of Foreboding, Part I – also known as the Halloween Countdown Calendar. While you were able to purchase this as a set previously – now the polishes will be available individually, as well as the GWP’s that came with the set. I have 2 GWPs because I bought a set, and I got a set to share as PR.
Finally – I also have all 3 of September’s Color of the Month shades, and the color for September was Black Cherry!
Let’s jump in and take a look. We will start with the main collection, and again – content warning on this collection.
