Magic 8 Box Review & Swatches

Hello everyone!

Today I have the Magic 8 Box to share with you! The theme for this box is The 80's Love Song!! 

So here is what you'll get in your Magic 8 Box! It will contain products from 8 brands, 4 permanent brands and 4 guest makers. I will swatches of the four permanent brands first then move on to the guest makers. I will also provide links to all brands! 
The price: This box retails for $59 plus shipping! That's about $7.38 per polish (not including shipping). Not a bad deal at all! Plus I know some people on Facebook are dividing the cost and splitting the polishes! 
Release date: The Magic 8 box will be releasing this Monday 2/8 in the Philly Loves Lacquer shop! For more information make sure to check out @phillyloveslacquer on Instagram! 

Alright lets get started!
Philly Loves Lacquer (permanent maker for the Magic 8 Box) This is "This Much is True-oo", which is an ode to True by Spandau Ballet! It's a luscious grey crelly filled with UCC flakies, gold flakies, and other sparkly goodness. Here you see 3 coats + topcoat!
This is my second ever owned polish from Philly Loves Lacquer and I am very impressed! I loved that the flakies were still very visible within this grey crelly! The gloss to it was also a plus! 




Rica Polish (permanent maker for the Magic 8 Box) This is "Time After Time" a mix of sparkly microglitters (I see gold, and different pinks) This polish dries slightly textured but I used Glossy Glam topcoat to smooth it out. Here you see 3 coats +topcoat 

I love the pop of colors! It's gorgeous! Application takes patience but definitely worth it!





Smokey Mountain Lacquer (permanent maker for the Magic 8 Box) This is "Faithfully" a light grey/blue with subtle holo sparkle. Here's 3 coats +topcoat.

The perks about these types of boxes is that you get to try different polishes and different brands. This is actually a brand I have never tried before and I really liked it! 






My Indie Polish (permanent maker for the Magic 8 Box) This is "Purple Rain" a medium purple with flakies and glitters! Here's 3 coats +topcoat. 

This brand is also new to me and I have actually never seen this brand before. My first thoughts were "who are you?! I want more from you!" 





Delush Polish (Guest maker) This is "Never Gonna Give You Up" a light blue crelly with neon glitters! Here's 3 coats +topcoat. 

Glitters were a bit hard to get out of the bottle but not impossible! These colors make the perfect combination! My favorite picture is the macro because you can really see how the colors peak through.





Pipe Dream Polish (Guest maker) This is "Cherish" a medium blue cream with silver flakies! Here's 3 coats +topcoat

Application was wonderful and the color is ammmazzzinnng!




(Guest maker) This is "Can't Fight This Feeling" a deep navy blue jelly with flakies! Here's 3 coat +topcoat.

This box is a whole lot of flakies! Isn't wonderful?! 
This polish is so beautiful!




Native War Paints (Guest Maker) This is "Never Tear Us Apart" a fuchsia with blue shimmer. Here's 3 coats +topcoat. 
Not gonna lie, I was super excited to swatch this one! The shimmer looks amazing under the light!! 






So what are your thoughts on this box? Planning on getting it? I really like that this box has a little of everything! Different colors, different finishes, different glitters! Make sure to follow these brands on instagram and also don't forget this will be releasing Monday 2/8! 
Here's what they all look like together

Until next time,
