le Monthly Mystery - November 2015
Disclosure: This bag was sent to me in exchange for a review. All opinions are my own.
What is le Monthly Mystery?: le Monthly Mystery is a monthly subscription bag brought to you by le Polish, a new indie polish brand. Each month will include a full size limited edition polish (seasonally appropriate) and a hand-care or beauty product (can include a cuticle balm, lotion, or soap). You have until the end of the previous month to get the following month's bag!
How Much is le Monthly Mystery?: le Monthly Mystery is $13/month with free shipping. You can get it for a discounted rate with a longer subscription.
This is the first month of this bag, and I'm so excited and honored to get to review it first.
This month came packaged super nice. It only took three days (including a Sunday) to get to me, which is ridiculously fast shipping.
Info card. We all know how big of a fan I am of info cards.
Pass the Pumpkin Pie - A Thanksgiving themed polish full of shimmer and tiny brown glitter.
Yes, this is Thanksgiving/fall in a bottle. It's a great orange base and the brown glitter make it look copper in indirect light. It applied so smoothly and the glitter reflects to make it super shimmery. I'm not one that's typically a fan of more metallic finishes, due to their nature of not working on me, but this one is perfect. And best part, only one coat to perfection!
Swatch, one coat!!
Vanilla Whipped Cream Sugar Scrubbies - A cute scrubby in the shape of a squirt of whipped cream with a cool vanilla scent.
This is so great. It's like a lip scrub, but for your hands. It only takes a little bit for each use, and it scrubs dead skin to make your hands feel silky smooth. And yes, it's like I bathed my hands in a pool of sweet vanilla, wonderful. I never would have thought of a product like this, and now I can't imagine not having it around.
I also love the inclusion of candy, huge win for me, and the ninja is the most adorable thing. It's something super cute and simple to throw in, and cute for kids or for my desk!
Overall, I loved this bag. It's great that it includes a polish perfect for the season, and I love that a product is included as well. For the price, it can't be beat! Indie bags are a great way to try out new colors/finishes that you might not have thought you would like, and this definitely did that! I didn't know how I would feel about this polish when I first saw it, but I'm glad I tried!
As always, let me know what you thought of this bag in the comments!
