Opening August Nailboxuk

With the end of the month comes an exciting package; August edition from Nailboxuk!  You will have seen my previous posts on opening these items and I'm happy to share the next one with you now.

Now this was an exciting box for me because of the inclusion of CND Vinylux top coat and colour.  I've never tried this brand so I love when I get something new to try out!  There was also a small packet of Lovehearts included (which for some reason I managed not to photograph!!).  This months nail item was an elegant Touch toenail clippers.

So lets talk first about the polish I was most excited to try; Wisteria Haze by CND Vinylux.  This product is called a weekly polish.  It claims to be, as the name suggests, a week long wearable polish thats remains chip free for 7+ days.  It is also a two step system, they say no base coat is required.  Simply apply your choosen colour then apply topcoat.  For the picture I've done two layers of colour, though one coat was actually pretty opaque, and then used their topcoat to finish.  Application was nice and smooth, the colour is vibrant and I have no complaints about it.  I did only swatch the polish so can't comment on how the wear on it is, but overall I have no issues with wear on any of my polishes that I use.

Next up we have a classic China Glaze colour; Flip Flop Fantasy.  I already own this shade but I'm happy to have another as my bottle is have used and I love the colour!  It actually has a bit of a matte look to it when it dries but I used a glossy topcoat over it.  Once again this is 2 coats of colour.  I adore China Glaze as a brand and own LOADS of their polishes and I even went with them for my gel polish range.

Last colour we have is by NailsInc; Seven Dials (gel effect).  This is a gorgeous creamy yellow.  The application is brilliant on all of the Nailsinc polishes I've tried thanks to the shape of the brush; it has rounded bristles which help to give a crisp finish by the cuticle.  

Until I had tried these boxes from Nailboxuk, I had never owned Vinylux, Nailsinc or even Essie.  I love that I can pay £15 a month to get items I know for a fact I will love and I'm yet to be disappointed!  The next plus side is getting shades I would not normally buy myself.  For example I would not have thought to pick a colour such as Seven Dials but when I swatched it I fell in love with it and can't wait to use it for a future nail art design.
