About 2 weeks ago I uploaded a video and did a blog post for a new brand launching and their debut collection. It was for Apocalypse Polish Very Strange Things Collection… and SURPRISE.. there’s a Volume Two already ready to go.
To see Volume One – check out this blog post HERE and the video is linked below.
For the Volume Two video on Youtube, you can check it out here:
Anyways, Volume Two will be available on March 15th, however there is a standalone polish called The Bridge that released yesterday, and I also show that shade in this post, as well as in the video above.
For the fine details, I do use Apres Gel X Nails in Extra Short Stiletto which are clear nails. I do not use blurring base coats (unless I’m reviewing them) or anything to increase opacity of the nails – and it shows during my YouTube videos especially. With the clear nails, if you can see through the tip still – then odds are you will also see VNL through the polish I have on. If you cannot see through them, then opacity was likely reached.
I work during the day in a medical office, and on weekends I enjoy day time shenanigans with my son – so most of my swatching is done at night in studio lighting. I also use a fairly basic, older point and shoot camera (Nikon L830) and I don’t do any fun frills to be fancy.
Let’s jump in… Volume Two has 6 polish total, then The Bridge means we’re looking at 7 polishes.

Another great collection, that’s technically a continuation of the previous. I do like some of the moodier blues here though.
