They ship out the packages every three months or so, you have to think about quality over quantity sometimes. That's actually a really good thing to go by.
I've been bored consistently with subscriptions and that's so disappointing to me. I haven't been bored with No More Dirty Looks so there's that :)
The Box: No More Dirty Looks
The Cost: $25 + Tax
The Products: Clean and Organic Beauty products
The Information Card:
I'm not sure what the theme this month is but I know it's about nail maintenance.
Glass File from Czech Glass: Value $8.99
We're going to assume you aren't the type of girl who files her nails on planes and trains. But were you that kind of person, this would be the file to use because it's the coolest-looking one we could find, and it's kinder to your nails, too. Glass files are more precise for shaping and way less harsh than emery or steel on your nails. Even better, because they're non-porous and easy to clean, they're more hygienic. You can use the back to push back your cuticles, and if you're ginger with it, you can exfoliate your cuticles, too. Finally, and this is important to us: They last forever. We aren't big fans of disposable anything, and when you can get a file that looks this good, and works this well, why would you bother?
I have used glass filers before and they work extremely well. Definitely better than cardboard (I know it's called emery. but what ever), they just damage your nails. Which totally makes me sad. I didn't know you can exfoliate your cuticles so I'm definitely trying that. I have to be gentle though because messed up cuticles are really ugly. The orange gradient is actually very pretty, bright and colorful, makes me smile just a bit.
RGB Nail Lacquer in Punch: 12 mL Value $16
Depending on the luck of your draw, you will have in your box either Too Red, which is an amazing bright blueish red; Coral, a jumpy orangey hue; Punch, a blushy nude; or Pink, a true bubblegum pop of color. We chose them because, well, they're all super fun and because we're more excited about summer brights than we are about the current trend to wear sorbet-colored lacquer on your nails. This brand is five-free (that means no formaldehyde, tolulene, DBP, formaldehyde resin, or camphor) favorite of ours, it dries with a high shine, lasts longer than a lot of three- and five-free lines out there, and it doesn't wash off in the shower (you'd be surprised).
Mmm I always had a thing for RGB nail lacquers especially their nail tints (so good). I received the one in Punch, a blushy nude, on my nails they look a bit coral. It's very pretty but I'm not into it. I like it but not currently, I can't explain it.
Priti NYC Soy Nail Polish Remover: 10 wipes Value $9.99
OK, so you know how we said we don't like disposable things? That's still true, but as anyone who's ever gotten a manicure knows, sometimes your paint chips- or you get an invitation that requires for a different look- at the exact wrong moment. It's helpful to have these in your bag, and it's also helpful to know they're not going to destroy your nails (or your brain cells) with super harsh volatile organic compounds. These nontoxic wipes also smell nice, which is more than we can say about most nail polish removers. Best of all, they don't leave your nails parched and ready to crack.
I love these nail polish remover wipes!
*triple spins in a circle*
I used to use acetone (yeah, yeah I know) but what ever, it worked well and fast. But they did dry the hell out of my nails. These wipes are so so good! the cloths are saturated with product and they don't smell too bad, oily and removes nail polish so so well! Like super duper good! Mmm! I had to wash my hands after using the cloth because it was so oily feeling, my nails looked like I never even painted my nails (not ever but you know) and my phalanges look great. I love it.
