Hi everybody today I am back with a review of the September ‘Nails and the City’ manicure box from Coloristiq. Coloristiq are a new brand to me who also provide a nail polish rental service, which is certainly an interesting concept :).
The box itself is £15 (excluding p&p), which is a great price as the contents is worth £33. You don’t have to sign up to a monthly subscription which is fab and means you can buy the boxes you like. In the box was Essie ‘Fifth Avenue’, Mini OPI ‘Worth a Pretty Penne’ form the Venice collection, Indie Nail polish Brand Danglefoot ‘Bluedapest’ and Nails inc ‘The Mall’.
I was quite impressed with the selection of polishes and the fact there was an Indie brand in there, which was new to me. I was very impressed with the Danglefoot polish.
I didn’t have a chance to swatch all of these on my nails, but I think this shows a good colour representation, remembering that colours photograph very differently on different skin tones. To see how these look on a fairer skin tone go check out Brit nails swatches of this box, her nails and swatches are divine.
I concentrated on the polish which caught my eye most in this box and that was ‘Bluedapest’ from Danglefoot polish. Which you can only get in this box.
I absolutely love this beautiful polish. It has a fantastic coverage and is packed full of tiny holo glitters and larger scattered gold glitters. It is just gorgeous and I would probably pay £15 just for this polish, so the others in the box were a plus.
It is a perfect polish and I am sure I will be purchasing more Danglefoot polishes in the future.
I decided to do some nail art using ‘Bluedapest’ as the base, the OPI Mini ‘Worth a Pretty Penne’ as a stamping polish and Cassella ‘Keep it Matte’.
I hope you like the nail art 🙂 I will post a tutorial on my Youtube Channel tomorrow.
This box is only available in limited quantities from the Coloristiq website, so snap it up while you can.
