a-England Bridal Veil

a-England Bridal Veil is a black scattered holo from one of my all-time favorite polish collections, The Legend Collection. I've sung the praises of the Legend polishes up and down, but realized I've never shared this one with you! It's a gorgeous polish in its own right, but equally fun to use as an alternative to basic black for layering or nail art, like I did with my mani using the Born Pretty zipper decals last week.



The formula, as usual with a-England's polishes, is a dream to work with. I used two coats here. The intensity of the holo in Bridal Veil is easily the weakest of all the Legend holos, but I like how the holo peaking through the vivid black base creates a "night sky" effect. It's very pretty and the glossy smooth finish of Bridal Veil only adds to that effect all the more. If you're looking for a true linear black holo though, I highly recommend Color Club Beyond from the newest Halo Hues set!

Sadly, a-England can no longer ship outside of the UK directly from their online store (Such a shame because they had some awesome promo deals every few months!) but they do have a very helpful "Where to Buy" page on their website where you can find other sites to purchase their polishes from in your country.

  1. This is really pretty! I don't even care that the holo isn't that strong.

    1. I am not a big fan of black polish either, but this is just so smooth-looking and beautiful!
