CrowsToes Even Sugar Melts in the Devil's Mouth for February's A Box, Indied

*Press Sample*

Hi everyone! Today I have the CrowsToes exclusive for February's A Box, Indied to share with you.
The theme of this box is "A Box, Candied", so all of the polishes are candy-themed. The other contributors to this box are Hare Polish, Elevation Polish, Serum No. 5, and Black Cat Lacquers. February's box will launch on January 26 at 12 PM and 7 PM Mountain time. Keep a watch on Llarowe's Facebook page to see the offerings from the other contributors to the box!

CrowsToes Even Sugar Melts in the Devil's Mouth is a black jelly filled with tiny red flake shimmer and larger translucent white flakes. Formula was really nice and built up easily in 3 thin coats. According to Pointless Cafe's post, this one was inspired by black rock candy, and I think it matches that inspiration perfectly! Leave it to Madam Crow to go for a darker theme when candy is her source of inspiration! LOL! This polish though...so gorgeous! The shimmering depth is just insane! I feel like this polish is the dark, moody (dare I say...devilish?) sister of That Boy is a P-I-G Pig! when Lauri was showing off a bit of her feminine, delicate side. I guess flakes can be ethereal AND evil! 

A Box, Indied is available from Llarowe for $50 each. Each box contains 5 polishes and/or products that are exclusive to that box and will not be available individually. You can sign up to receive a box each month or you can purchase the boxes individually when they are released. Follow Llarowe's Facebook page for announcements of exact dates and times of releases (the box for the next month is usually released around the end of the previous month.) She will also give previews of the products and makers that will be in the box (there is a rotation of makers that are included, it isn't always the same). Thanks for looking everyone!

2014 Mainstream Favorites

Hi everyone! Today I have a wrap-up of my favorite mainstream polishes this year. Surprisingly, there were a ton of cremes on the list this year, but I really thought there were some excellent ones!

My Top Indies of 2014

*Some items in this post were provided for review*

Hi everyone! I'm sorry for not doing my "favorites" posts earlier, but I finally have the time to get them together this weekend. My indie post is going to be quite extensive since I'm largely an indie blogger, but in order to keep this list as short as possible, I trying to limit myself to only two polishes from my favorite brands (and I mostly did ok with that). I was aiming for 25, but you got 26 (and considering the amount of indies I have, that's pretty good narrowing down for me). So here they are in no particular order!
