May "What's In-die Box" revealed, swatched and assessed





Firstly I have to confess, I did buy the box purely because it was a holographic polish box month haha. :-) Naughty me and I have to say I was not at all disappointed.


Every single one of these shiny, sparkly gems are to die for.

Where to start, where to start, now these are not in any particular order of preference cause really I loved all of them but if you twisted my arm and held a gun to my head I would have to choose 
 @peitaspolish as the holographic sparkle is sooo mesmerising even my aunties cat was fascinated by my nails and Dan has the attention span of a nat so that’s sayin something. :-)

 @peitaspolish “beauty is a drag”

  
@celestical “tess tosterone”


@glitteringelements “queen fierce”


@lilypadlacquers “fashion whore”


@hollishnails “my middle name is fabulous”

12/10 for this box ladies I applaud you on making a fabulous indie box

SugarBaby polish review



Did a trip to Myer Aust as I heard a rumor they had a sale on so of course I had to check it out “just in case” there was any polishes in the clear out section, and to my joy I came across sugarbaby polish packs in the clearance section.


I don’t actually own any SugarBaby polishes but I have seen pics of them so I thought I might as well give them a crack, and let me say I am so glad I did grab them as WOW they are excellent.
In the pic below you can see (from left to right)

First finger has 2 coats no top coat and has full coverage, no streaks, and is fully opaque….
The next finger has 1 coat no top coat but for some reason comes up matte so will need a top coat
Next finger has only 1 thin coat but for 1 coat I thought it was excellent
Next finger has 2 coats so you could nearly get away with only 1 coat of this colour.

And of course I had to do a little bit of nail art :-)


So to sum up if you see a sugarbaby polish get it, you won’t be disappointed :-) @sugarbabybeauty
