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!

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

     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.

     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.

      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 - Could It BE Any Sunnier?

     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






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






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!






Rica - Glossy Glam

     So, I didn't get a picture of GG on its own. I don't know how I missed it. 

     If you've been a reader for a while, you know how much I love Glossy Glam. It's my favorite top coat ever.

  2. Thank you! I wish my cats hadn't dropped the box on my office floor. They ruined all the bottles for me. :(
