I wasn't sure if I was getting a box this month because I unsubscribed in January and didn't know when they charged for the next box. I received some emails regarding shipping but still haven't even received the tracking information for this box. I went to get the mail anyways and there it was! Here's what I got in this month's Luxe Box.

I've decided to try and attempt chevron nails without using tape because it can be hard cutting tape without it sticking together. I looked around my room and found those hole punch stickers which I never ever use. Turns out that they're really good because you can use the edges as a guide to cut the corners and will almost always end up with the perfect V. I finally remembered to take pictures along the way to share how I did it. So here are my results and picture tutorial :).

How to cut the stickers:

My boyfriend recently purchased a Julep gift card for me when they had the buy $50 for $25 promo so I was waiting to spend some of it in the Secret Store since the gift cards are not valid on subscriptions. Julep's Secret Store is open on the 1st of every month an contain a lot of good package deals. The catch is that the store is "supposed" to be only open for those who purchased that month's subscription box. Sneaky me, I got into it without the subscription >:) hehe. Once in, the Pastel Paradise immediately caught my eye, especially since Easter and Spring are soon approaching and I can't wait! :) Here's what was included in the Pastel Paradise set.

Sample: Glycolic Hand Scrub

Sally - American Beauty: Antique ivory crème

What was your best deal at the Secret Store?

And it might be just me, but does anyone else miss the glitter pots? They were so cute!

This week I kept it simple with Julep's Lynn and Sally Hansen's Golden-I for my accent nail. When I initially saw Lynn, I wasn't very fond of the colour because it seemed like a sheer and shimmery pink. I hate polishes that go on sheer because it looks so nice in the bottle but takes 10 coats on the nails for the same colour. Lynn proved me wrong, I only needed 2 coats of Lynn to make it opaque and the colour is a gorgeous nude-pink. I've never been so in love with a pink before and am so glad I got this in Cupid's Mystery Box.

Spring is right around the corner and I think transitioning from deep to vibrant polishes is the best way to start off the season! Here I am wearing My Lifesaver by OPI which is a beautiful opaque mint blue. On my ring finger, I drew a cherry blossom branch, mimicking Arizona's Green Tea design.

Last week, Pink Beryl emailed Loose Button past and present subscribers and offered a free pair of stockings for 24 hours. I jumped on the chance and was amazed that when they meant free, they literally meant free! No shipping charges or additional monthly purchases needed. For those who don't know, Pink Beryl is a monthly subscription for stockings where you can choose 1 pair a month ($12) or 2 pairs a month ($20). To determine your style, you take a quiz when you sign up, but don't fret if it doesn't match you because you always have the option to choose from a list of styles :).
