When I learned that Finger Lickin' Lacquer was coming out with a Queen themed collection I got pretty excited. There was a time where all I would listen to is classic rock.

Here's part two as promised! Jolly Holly Jolly Holly is a deep green jelly with red hexes and white stars. I love this interpretation on holiday decorations!

I saved the most Christmasy (roll with it) colors for last. Jack Frost Jack Frost is an icy white polish with a hint of blue shimmer and blue flecks.
