Crème à la Mode Box Spring 2016 Swatches and Review

Press Sample

Hi everyone! I hope you had a great Easter/weekend!  Today I have the new Spring 2016 Crème à la Mode Box.  As a recap, the Creme a la Mode box is collaborative effort between four brands: Digital Nails, Literary Lacquers, Indigo Bananas, and Octopus Party Nail Lacquers.  It contains four creme polishes, retails for $26 USD + s&h, and is released quarterly at CremeAlaMode.bigcartel.com.

Let's take a look!

Digital Nails Water You Wading For?  I'm calling this a bright cornflower blue.  It gives me Sally Hansen Pacific Blue (the original) vibes.  Application and formula on this is flawless!

This is 2 coats.

Indigo Bananas Smoke on the Otter.  This is a grayed off white creme.  It's almost a dove gray color.  I can see this being a great base for nail art!  The formula on this is a tad thin but still workable and great for a white based polish.

This is 3 coats.

Literary Lacquer Salmon Chanted Evening.  This is a gorgeous bright coral creme and I love how it pops against my skin!  My bottle had a funky brush, so I won't comment to much on formula, but I did like the consistency.

This is 3 coats, but I suspect it would be fine in 2 without the brush issue.

Octopus Party Nail Lacquer The Algae-atic Sea.  This is a beautiful and bright pastel green creme. The application is flawless and the formula is easy to work with.

This is 2 coats.

And there we have it!  Everyone did a fabulous job with these polishes.  I can see myself wearing each and everyone!

These will only be available for pre-order until April 3rd so be sure to hurry and get yours!
