Today I have 1850 Artisan Polish’s contribution to August Polish Pickup! Keep reading for more details on this stunning shade.

Every month, PPU has a theme voted on by fans. Tons of indie makers then create a polish inspired by that theme. You can order as many shades from any maker participating that month for a flat rate of $3 shipping in the U.S. You can learn more about PPU on their website here! This month’s theme is “At the Carnival”, and this shade will be available from August 2nd-5thth on the Polish Pickup website.

This shade was inspired by the character Madame Lulu from The Carnivorous Carnival from the Series of Unfortunate Events books. Madame Lulu will retail for $12.50 and has no cap.

Madame Lulu has a dark periwinkle base with copper and turquoise shimmer and emerald/orange/pink/purple/gold shifting iridescent flakies. My swatches show this shade in two coats of polish.


The polishes shown in this post were sent to me for free in exchange for swatching and my honest review. Thank you so much for reading!
