nailbox // may 2015

nailbox* // £15

yet another monthly subscription box to add to your list to choose from - and i'll give you three guesses as to what the this one's speciality is (clue: heavily acetone based).

inside the box: essie status symbol, rimmel lucky lilac, nicole by opi alex by the books, orly fiery orange and an elegant touch cuticle pusher and nail cleaner. the retail value of the box adds up to an impressive £38, but i'd bear in mind that it's very easy to find nail polish at a heavily discounted price. despite me not being the biggest fan of most nail polish colours that aren't black, nude or burgundy, i'm quite drawn to the Essie shade and it'd look lovely on my feet with sandals (that is, if anything can ever look lovely on a pair of feet ever), maybe if it plays its cards right then it'll end up on my fingernails too.

there's no fancy outer packaging to show you, instead the polishes come securely packaged in a plain brown box. each month's box contains five products, at least three of which are nail polishes. also if you shimmy on over to their website, they're hinting that june's box will contain the legendary seche vite top coat which is like a tenner on its own - not bad.
