Cuentos de Medianoche — Stories at Midnight
An 8-Piece HEMA-Free & TPO-Free Gel Polish Collection
When the sun disappears and the world grows quiet, the stories begin...
Cuentos de Medianoche (Stories at Midnight) is an 8-piece gel polish collection inspired by the legends, creatures, spirits, and supernatural tales that have been passed down through generations throughout Mexico and Latin America.
Each shade tells its own story—from creatures hiding in the darkness and spirits wandering after midnight to shapeshifters, witches, and mysterious beings protecting ancient lands. The colors were chosen to capture the personality and atmosphere of each legend, creating a collection that is spooky, beautiful, and deeply connected to the stories behind it.
🌙 The 8 Shades of Cuentos de Medianoche
El Chupacabra — A translucent, buildable strawberry red with incredible depth. One of our year-round best sellers.
El Cucuy — A deep plum, translucent and buildable shade inspired by the creature generations of children have been warned about. Along with El Chupacabra, it has remained a customer favorite all year—not just during spooky season.
La Lechuza — A copper Seashell Gel Polish that creates a dimensional metallic finish. Its versatility makes it beautiful for full-coverage manicures, layering, gradients, accents, and detailed nail art.
El Sombrerón — A rich black gel polish scattered with silver shimmer, reminiscent of a dark night illuminated by tiny flashes of moonlight.
El Nahual — A vivid royal purple gel polish inspired by the mysterious shapeshifter of Mesoamerican tradition.
La Hora Bruja — A bold magenta-purple inspired by the Witching Hour, when the veil between our world and the supernatural is said to become its thinnest.
El Alux — A vibrant neon lime green inspired by the mischievous guardian spirits of Mayan folklore.
La Llorona — A translucent pale yellow that transforms into an incredibly bright neon green in the dark. Its powerful, long-lasting glow has made La Llorona our best-selling glow-in-the-dark gel polish.

🎨 Original Artwork
The artwork for Cuentos de Medianoche is especially meaningful to us. The original illustrations featured throughout the collection were created by my Son-in-Law, Eibar Garrido, and Eris. Their artwork gives each legend its own face and personality, helping us tell these stories through more than color alone.
Cuentos de Medianoche isn't just a spooky-season collection. It's a celebration of the stories many of us grew up hearing—the ones whispered between generations, the ones that made us afraid of the dark, and the ones that continue to be told long after midnight.
Eight colors. Eight legends. One collection of stories that refuse to stay buried. 🌙💀
