Crème à la Mode Box Winter 2015

Press Sample

Hi everyone!  Today I have the Winter Crème à la Mode box to show you.  The box is released quarterly and includes four creme polishes from the indie brands Digital Nails, Literary Lacquers, Indigo Bananas, and Octopus Party Nail Lacquer.

Indigo Bananas Scarlet Night.  This is a deep, kind of a brick red color.  It has a slightly sheer formula giving more of a jelly/creme look.  It does go on sheer, but eventually builds up and has an easy formula.

This is 4 coats.

Digital Nails Arboreal.  This is such a pretty aqua.  I love how it's darker than your average aqua polish!  The formula on this is perfect!

This is 2 coats.

Literary Lacquers Breathing Dreams Like Air.  This is a dusty grayed purple creme.  This one is on the thick side and I had a bit of a hard time with the formula.  I seem to be the only one, so maybe it was just user error.

This is 2 coats.

Octopus Party Nail Lacquer Malibu Stacy's Mom.  This is a beautiful bright nearly neon barbie pink.  And I love it because it's so squishy.  No formula complaints about this one!

This is 3 coats.

This fall's box is available for pre-order from November 15th - November 21st from CremealaMode.bigcartel.com and retails for $26 USD.  And if you happen to miss the box, each polish will eventually come to each individual makers shop!
