Paint your way into the dark world of academia. Whether you’re feeling like a curious first year getting acquainted with campus, or an ambitious intellectual intent on challenging the academic order, this eight-piece set holds the key to unlocking your pedagogical potential. Try on three rich new crèmes and a provocative oxblood crelly shade as introductory fall material, or aim for the highest order of formulas with four distinguished specialty polishes. The choice is yours… what sacrifices are you willing to make for your future? 

Collection includes: Ivory Tower, Foreshadow, Head Hunter, Devil's Advocate, Silent Library, Secret Society, Inkwell and Ivy League.

    • Includes four specialty polishes in deeply sophisticated shades, one oxblood red crelly (aka formula is in between a crème and a translucent jelly), and three full-coverage crème polishes. 
    • Apply 2-3 coats for full coverage 
    • Polishes include a medium-width rounded brush 
    • Pro quick-dry tip: Finish off with a Glossy Taco for a quick-dry glossy finish to make your mani last longer without chipping.
    • Designed by Simply Nailogical 
    • Made in USA of globally sourced ingredients 
    • 12ml / 0.4 fl oz each 
    • 10-free 
    • Super-pigmented shades may cause staining depending on the porousness of the nail and the use of a protective base coat. Polish should be stored in a cool, dark place to keep it at its best for longer and to prevent the colour or consistency from changing. 
    • Batch variability: Please note specialty polishes are created using unique pigments that may vary slightly between batches. 
    • Due to metallic pigments which are prone to tarnishing, the overall colour or tone of metallic-based formulas may fade or change over time.

Great Collection

Loved every one of these shades. A couple were a little too similar to each other for my taste, but I really liked the vibes of the ox blood and the silent library

This needs MORE than 5 stars! ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!!

I love everything about this bundle! Every color is perfection! The build of Devils Advocate I can’t get enough of! I am also super thrilled about the switch to thicc brushes!! Too amazing!!! I highly recommend this moody color story!! Head Hunter just might be my all time favorite solid color I’ve ever had on my nails!!

Incredibly spooky

First collection where I bought the whole thing and I'm so happy I did! All of the polishes go together so well and are great for nail art. I love Silent library so much the formula is so cool and interesting I hope more polishes are made in this formula.
