Parallax Polish April Box Review

Hello, lovelies! I am excited to have the honor of reviewing a special new product for you! Parallax Polish http://parallaxpolish.storenvy.com/ sent me a complementary April subscription box. Included in this package were the following: "April Pink" holo polish, "April Almond" cuticle oil, and a prototype of one of the scientist trading cards with cool facts (I got Grace Hopper). My overall impression is positive. The pricing is very reasonable ($14, plus $3 shipping), and you are able to see this month's items before you purchase the box. Another interesting characteristic of Parallax Polish's sub box is that you can customize it! If you don't care for holo in your polish, you can knock the price down. Just want the cuticle oil and not the polish? There's an option for that too. Furthermore, there is no automatic billing, so you never end up paying for something you do not want.

Okay, now on to the product testing! First up, enjoy my swatch of this hot pink holo baby. Application was smooth, and dry time was relatively quick. You can get full coverage easily in 2-3 coats. The finish is a little matte, but I wore glossy topcoat in this photo. Cleanup was neat - no staining of the nails, although it was a little stubborn around my cuticles so I just used an extra cotton ball. I love the bright color and will be wearing it again soon!

Pardon my stained nails, but I wanted you to get the most accurate impression of this oil that I can offer. As you can see, my cuticles look wonderfully moisturized! What you can't see is how great they smell. This nourishing cuticle oil has a subtle almond aroma which is just fantastic. It isn't an overwhelming scent but it's definitely nice-smelling. The consistency is also nice; it is not runny or goopy. I applied a small amount around each nail (a little bit goes a long way), gently massaged it in, then finished with my regular lotion. My hands are feeling so soft.

There you have it! I recommend you check out Parallax Polish if you like the sound of this type of subscription box. I've been enjoying mine! I think that with the flexibility in the ordering process, you can make sure to get exactly what you want.
