Festival Lights BlackBox

First let me start by saying that I LOVE THIS BLACKBOX! The polishes are absolutely stunning, and look perfect together! I mean, just look how pretty!

The Polishes


I absolutely LOVE this "holo"! It's my first holo, so I am just in awe! I can't believe I haven't purchased any before this! In the mani pictured above, I used 3 thin coats of Coachella with no colored base coat to achieve full opacity. You could probably get away with 2 coats, but I wanted it to be SUPER opaque(; And you must be thinking, "I thought these were supposed to be one coat polishes?" Well, Coachella is a holo top coat! So it's not expected to be opaque in a single coat(;

This is a beautiful Coral color! The formula is so creamy, it really was opaque in a single coat! I was honestly shocked that it was so opaque in a single coating. I was also pleasantly surprised at how quickly this dried on my nails. I accidentally bumped it into my desk, and was worried I was going to have to redo my nail, but nope! It was already dried! Lucky me! haha.

Like I said in my First Impressions post the other day, this could be just another purple you have on your shelf, but for me, it's the shade I've been waiting for! I have a few shades lighter, and a few darker, but none this specific color. This was also opaque in a single coat. The formula is very consistent with Laguna, very creamy. Very easy to apply. Great all around in my book!





One last thing I would like to add about these polishes, I adore the bottles they come in. The square bottles look so chic on my wall rack, I love it!

The Brushes


I have been using the angled brushes like crazy! I really love the tiny one! It has helped me improve my cuticle clean up by at least 70%! My big angled brush however, has not kept its shape. When I attempt to clean my cuticles with it, the bristles kept getting pushed into the metal base, rending it useless to me. The small one is perfectly fine though. And that fan brush...I took on a test run, and so far so good! I'm excited to use it for future manis!




Final Verdict


I believe that the Festival Lights BlackBox is so worth the very reasonable price of $9.99! The products are amazing! There may have been a little hiccup with one of the brushes, but that doesn't deem this box unworthy. The 3 polishes are A++ in my book. The formula, the bottles, the application brushes, and even the label are all on point! So if you would like to purchase this box, all you have to do is CLICK HERE! Enjoy ladies!
