MOTM: August!

This month's theme is very outdoorsy and inspired.  I am so excited to see these every month to see what amazing ideas are in this box!

This month the box contained:

From Dream Polish

  •  A 5 ml Gem Smooth Base Coat
  • A 5ml Gem Glam Top Coat in Into the Woods
  • A full sized cuticle balm in Into the Woods

From Heather's Hues 
  • A polish mini in Cuddling by the Campfire
  • A full sized polish in Chasing Fireflies

From Nails Redesigned 
  • A sheet of vinyl fireflies
  • A sheet of vinyl star masks 
  • A sheet of vinyl flames
  • An assortment of gems 

Chasing Fireflies is an amazing amazing royal purple jelly with several colours of tiny glitters, including glow-in-the-dark so it really does look like tiny glowing fireflies.  It is opaque in two coats and as usual I use three thin layers for glitter depth. 


Oddly, the stand out polish for me this month is actually Cuddling by the Campfire!  This one is a gorgeous dense metallic with micro glitters of copper/rose/gold/orange/pink/etc that just flickers like flame. It's nice and opaque in two careful coats, but again!  I used three thin ones for depth.


 Hey, Heather.  Can I get a BIG bottle of this?!

The scent from Dream Polish this month is so different than anything she's done before.  It's a very manly cologne scent that I am really liking.

This month has probably my favourite vinyls to date!  There are clear star masks, silver dragonflies, and amazing flame guides!


Also included are some AB finish coral colured crystal gems to accent.

There was a chance to get one of two different guest indie cuticle oils this month!


The cuticle oil from Got Nail comes in a tiny little doe foot!  I love these things, I tend to refill them because they slip easily into even the smallest pocket so I can take it with me where ever.  This particular scent is in Mountain Rain which is a great crisp green scent, almost grassy.  I like the formula of this oil, it's not overly greasy but does a nice job.

The second option you could have received was a cuticle oil from Northern Star Cosmetics in Summer Nights.  It's a lovely floral, I'm guessing it's based on lily.  This is another nice formula, although this was 'borrowed' by my cousin who loved the scent, I will probably never get it back...

The next box goes on sale Monday, August 3 for the September box, make sure you set an alarm!
