The angels have the phonebox...

Welp, if you're still here, that means that you're prepared for the final installment of the "Oi, Spaceman" polish swatch-travaganza! Today I'm bringing you the appropriately named "Don't Blink" by NerdLacquer which was named after one of the creepiest alien species ever. The Weeping Angels. While they aren't so scary at first glance, the Weeping Angels instantly became classic baddies in the Doctor Who universe. Know what isn't bad, but should be considered a classic? This polish! Ugh, I'm so in love that I'm verging on waxing poetic.

Roses are Red. Violets are blue. I like this polish a lot.

 Don't Blink is a creamy gray reminiscent of stone (and creepy angel statues) with a mix of what looks like silver and black glitters. Being suspended within the cream base gives the glitter an interesting depth and visual texture. I say visual texture because after two coats, the application was flawless, opaque, and smooth to the touch without a top coat.

VISUAL TEXTURE - ooooooooh! aaaaaaaaaaah!
 Don't Blink was the polish that I most wanted from NerdLacquer, and honestly it's the reason why I bought the trio - this beauty sold out so quickly that the only way I could get my hands on it was to get it as part of a set. No complaints here - totally worth it!

Based off of the three polishes that I was able to try, I am excited to see what else NerdLacquer will be coming out with in the future with the hope that I'll be able to get my hands on it. Beautiful application, unique colors, and nerdy inspiration - what is there not to love???
