I'm super-excited to be a guest blogger for the Monthly Awareness Polish Box for December 2017! This box supports a different charity every month and is hosted by Courtney of Swatch Me Go, Lindsay of Night Owl Lacquer, Virginia of Pretty Beautiful Unlimited, and Angie of Sassy Pants Polish. The guest contributors this month are L. J. of All Mixed Up Lacquers, Crystal of PoSHlish, and Issa of Starlight and Sparkles. This month, proceeds will go to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. I always love a good charitable excuse to buy polish and have bought from most months of the Monthly Awareness Polish Box so far. A nice aspect of this box is that you can buy all six for $52, pick four for $40, or purchase individual polishes for $11 each. It's nice to be able to chip in as you are able to! Let's have a look...

All Mixed Up Lacquers Always On My Mind is an Amazon green creme-jelly with gold holo glitter dust and blue and pink microflakes. I wore it in four thin coats, but fewer would do. This has a nice, quick-dry formula. Due to the glitter dust, it needs top coat to be smooth and shiny.
Night Owl Lacquer Never Lose Hope is a grape jelly with strong linear holo, blue and bronze shimmer, pink holo shred microglitter, and indigo iridescent duochrome microglitter. This one packs a mega punch and is sure to dazzle you in person! I wore it in four thin coats, though fewer would do. Great formula. It requires top coat to be perfectly smooth.
PoSHlish Bring Them Home is a deep pink-to-white thermal jelly. I wore it in four thin coats. It has a nice, quick dry time and is on the thick side in terms of consistency. First I show it in its cool state, and second in the warmer state, where my tips are oddly the warmest part, looking almost pure white!
Here it is warm - note my tips are the color it appears in the warmest temperature.
Pretty Beautiful Unlimited Stay Vigilant is a rose red with holo microflakes and shimmer and red-to-green multichrome iridescent glitters. This has a wonderful, quick dry time and covers in one or two thin coats. Due to the glitter, it needs top coat to smooth, but one coat will do the trick.
Sassy Pants Polish Buddy System has scattered holo in a dark aqua shimmer base. I wore it in three thin coats. Great, smooth formula. This one doesn't show many brush strokes for a shimmer.
Finally we have Starlight and Sparkles Never Forgotten. This is a process cyan creme-jelly with a rainbow of duochrome microflakes. I wore it in four thin coats. This dries super-quick and spreads perfectly.

The polishes are all available for pre-order now through December 11. I have been buying from this box since the beginning and the coordinators offer such good service and support amazing causes. I can't recommend it highly enough and have always been delighted with my purchases. I hope you find some to love here, too!
