Plump and Polished: Beauty Quartet Box - Out with the Cold, In with the Hue [April 2015]

Press Sample

Hey, babes! I can't believe it's been so long. I have lots of material to share with you, but the universe is against me. I'm serious here. I finally got a new computer so I'm good to go now, but it was rough without one for over a week!

I'm so excited to share the Beauty Quartet Box with you! This is my first and I couldn't be more pleased. The BQB includes Philly Loves Lacquer, Smokey Mountain Lacquers, Digital Nails, and special guest Rica. It's four full size polishes and four extras. You don't want to miss out on this!

Philly Loves Lacquer

Screw You, Groundhog!

Super creamy formula that needed just two coats for full opacity. No issues with application and it dried quickly.

Digital Nails

To Thine Own Self Be True

deep periwinkle crelly

iridescent blue hexes and squares

Digital Nails
To Thine Own Self Be True

This crelly is pretty opaque, but I preferred it with three coats for more glitter coverage. It dried quickly and needed just one coat of top coat to smooth it out.

Smokey Mountain Lacquers

Electric Sun

bright yellow creme

yellow shimmer

Two easy coats and this yellow is good to go. I was pleasantly surprised by the ease of application. Add a little top coat and it's perfect.

Rica

Rica

one coat Rica Glossy Glam

Rica

You're No April Fool

Two highly pigmented coats that were so easy to apply. This one dried quickly, but a little matte. You'll definitely want to add some Glossy Glam to finish it off.

The Extras

Philly Loves Lacquer

This holo top coat is EVERYTHING. The holo is super fine, but really strong. It doesn't overpower the base. Plus, who doesn't love Chandler?

On the left is the original polish and one the right is the holo top coat. How amazing is that? You even make a holo polish MORE holo!

Digital Nails

Bitter Almond Soap

This soap is handmade. It's gorgeous with different shades of purple and blue. There's a tiny bit of lustre in it, too. It smells great and the scent lasts a good bit after using it as hand soap. I'd love to get my hands (har har) on a large chunk of this!

Smokey Mountain Lacquers

Chocolate Angel Cake Cuticle Oil

This oil was perfect for in between swatches for me! It has a rollerball which is easy to use, and it absorbed quickly. If you like chocolate, you'll love the scent. I've never been a fan of chocolate (I know, I know!) so the scent isn't for me. A friend loved it though!
