Pomegranate Nail Lacquer Blue Screen of Death

Today, I'm interupting Holo Month once more because I have a very special polish to show you guys! This baby below is Blue Screen of Death from Pomegranate Nail Lacquer.

According to their website, Pomegrante Nail Lacquer is a high-quality, long-wearing, chip-resistant nail polish made in the USA. All their lacquers are 4-free, which means they don't contain toluene, formaldehyde, dibutyl phthalate (DBP) or camphor.



For all you lucky people who have yet to see a Blue Screen of Death, here's what it looks like.

The Blue Screen of Death is "the error screen displayed by the Microsoft Windows family of operating systems upon encountering a critical error, of a non-recoverable nature, that causes the system to crash". (Taken from Wikipedia) I have only seen the mysterious Blue Screen of Death once and I hope I'll never have to see it ever again.

But back to the polish, the moment it, I knew I had to have it, if not for its gorgeous shimmer, then for it's super cute name! The shade of blue that the polish is, is actually quite spot on and speaking of its gorgeous shimmer, look how they shine in this bottle shot!


Blue Screen of Death is a cobalt blue jelly polish with a stunning turquoise shimmer. The shimmer doesn't really photograph well but trust me when I tell you it looks a million times better in person.


Application was easy peasy. Two quick coats and you're done! Dry time was also great - I was able to apply Lemony Flutter all around my cuticles and fingertips in under ten minutes without smudging anything.


This was my best effort at trying to get the shimmer to shine. Pomegranate Nail Lacquer has miraculously manage to make the Blue Screen of Death something I actually love!


Brush-wise, Pomegranate's brush is about the same width as the Essie brush but because it is slightly longer, the brush fanned out better and that made application much easier.


Pomegranate Autumnesque is now available on Star Trinkets, their first international stockist. Non-US fans of the brand can now lay their polished claws on the brand more easily! YAYYYY! For those living in the US, you can also purchase Pomegranate Nail Lacquer directly from their website.

  1. This is super pretty, but it reminds me a lot of Orly Royal Navy which I own so I'd have to pass on Blue Screen of Death.

  2. I don't own the Orly but I noticed they did look similar when i was doing my "research" on the polish and came across this post: http://www.jennafroggy.com/2012/08/i-got-it-again.html. Thanks for dropping by! :)

  3. Luckily you have seen it only once. The BSOD is unfortunately a 'good' friend of mine :(
    Lovely polish though! I wanted it to commemorate, uh, my 'good' friend but I already have it in the form of Royal Navy.
