SquareHue December Box Review & Swatches

This month's SquareHue box was inspired by the Finnish town of Rovaniemi, which is supposedly the hometown of Santa Claus. Not surprisingly, the three shades in this box are Christmas-themed!

Joulupukin Pajakyla is a beautiful ruby red with a stunning red shimmer. Great formula and coverage in two easy coats.

Sampokeskus is a textured straw gold with glitter. It dries more matte than textured, but still very pretty. This first picture is two coats with no top coat and the second is with one coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Revontuli is my favorite color in the trio, but had the worst formula. It dries to a pretty suede finish, but the formula is thick and doesn't even itself out. I like it best with top coat, as seen in the second photo. It has so much dimension when it's shiny! This is two coats.

Are you digging these shades? I have to say that I love them even though the formula was a bit lacking this month.  You can sign up for your own SquareHue box by visiting their website, www.squarehue.com!

SquareHue November 2014 Box Swatches & Review

Look who is all caught up on SquareHue boxes! I didn't get October's box, so we are going to skip right to November (the current box!). Yay! This box was influenced by Prague and has three incredible shades that I'm dying to share.

Na Prikope is a beautiful sage green that is so unique in my collection! As always with SquareHue, the formula was amazing. This is two coats.

Vaclavske Namesti is a stunning smokey plum with silver microshimmer. This is so incredibly gorgeous in person! I'm wearing two coats.

Parizska is an awesome medium gray with silver glitter. It dries a little gritty, so expect to use one to two coats of top coat to even it out. This is two easy coats of color.

I know I sound like a broken record every month, but I am seriously so impressed with SquareHue. I absolutely love all three of the shades this month and can't wait to wear them throughout the winter! Usually there's one shade each month that I don't really care for, but this month I'm loving them all. What about you? Did you get this box and love it? Are you jealous that you missed it?

But anyway, I have the SquareHue September box to share with you today. The theme is Sydney and these three shades are stunning!

King Street is a dark brick shade that has a fantastic formula. This is two coats.

Oxford Street is a warm golden orange shimmer polish. Two coats here.

SquareHue August 2014 Box Swatches & Review

Hey guys! I have yet another awesome SquareHue box to share with you today. This time it's the August box, which is taking us to Beverly Hills!

Rodeo Drive is a gorgeous warm gold shade. I don't typically like silver or gold shades on myself but this one is so pretty! I will definitely be putting it to good use around the holidays. This is two coats.

Wilshire Boulevard is the most amazing deep sapphire blue. Bordering on metallic because of the microshimmer, it just glows! I'm so beyond excited to stamp with this... it'll look incredible over black. This is two coats, although it is definitely a one-coater.

Canon Drive is a lovely deep orchid shade that unfortunately suffers from a little bit of brushstroking in the finish, although I can totally look past it as it isn't really that bad. This is two coats.

If you aren't familiar, SquareHue is a subscription service that sends you three expertly created nail polishes each month for $19.99 shipped.

SquareHue July 2014 Box Swatches & Review

Hola! Today I have SquareHue's July box to share with you and the theme for this month is Barcelona. I'll give you the run down about the SquareHue subscription service at the end of the post, but for now let's get to the swatches!

Plaça Catalunya is a beautiful hot pink with silver micro shimmer. The formula on this one shows a bit of brushstroke, but the coverage was great in two coats.

Rambla de Raval is a fiesty warm orange with golden micro shimmer. Same slight brush stroke issues at the first shade and also a little more sheer. This is two coats but a third would probably have been wise to make sure everything was totally opaque.

Passieg de Grácia is by far the stunner in this set. This deep, vampy purple just takes my breath away! Absolutely flawless formula makes this polish a total knockout. I'm wearing two coats.

SquareHue June 2014 Box Swatches/Review

Hey guys! I have perhaps the best SquareHue shades ever made to share this morning. The June box totally and completely knocked it out of the park with three full-coverage, perfectly "summer" shades! This box was themed around Maui and I'll tell you what, I would wear any single one of these shades on a tropical vacation!

Wailea is warm peachy color, one of those classy neutral type of shades. This is two easy coats.

Ka'ahumanu is an incredible shade of turquoise. Seriously, if one color could epitomize the perfect ocean water, it would be this one. Two coats here as well. (And do me a favor and ignore that icky fuzz on my pinkie, okay? Cool.)

And last, but certainly not least, is the shimmery sky blue goodness of Ala Moana. So, so perfect. You guessed it, two easy coats.

Unbelievable. Seriously, how incredible is this collection? If you need a little push to sign up for your own SquareHue subscription, I think this is it. Go ahead and click on any of the links in this post and sign yourself up because honestly, $14.99 for these three polishes is a STEAL.

SquareHue May 2014 Box Swatches/Review

Good morning! I have the polishes from SquareHue's May box to share with you today. If you aren't familiar with SquareHue already, it is a monthly subscription service where you get three full-size polishes delivered to you each month for $14.99. They curate the box each month based on current trends, so you'll never receive the same color twice.

Ipanema is a shimmery medium shade of yellow. This is SO not my color, but it has a fantastic formula and great coverage for a yellow! This is two coat.

Leblon is a stunning, absolutely glowing emerald green shade. You can see a teensy bit of brushstrokes here but seriously, who cares?? Look at this color!! This is two easy coats.

Copacabana is an ocean blue jelly with blue and silver glitter. This is three coats here and you can still see my nail line so if you want this one to be opaque, you're going to have to layer it.

Interested in signing up for your own box? Of course you are! Who can resist awesome nail polish showing up at your door once a month? Head on over to SquareHue's website to get started and enjoy!

Champagne Toast is a festive pale gold metallic polish. I used three coats here with no application issues. This is a really elegant color that would look great at any holiday party.

Sugar Plum is a rich, royal purple shimmer. I only needed two coats here but again, no formula issues.

Holly Berry is a bright, shimmery, holiday red that was perfect in two coats.
