Press Sample of May 2016
Magic 8 Box

Tonight I have another collaboration box to share with you! This is the May 2016 Magic 8 Ball collab box and the theme this month is Musical Movies!

Here’s the breakdown for the Magic 8 Box (if you are new to it): it will contain products from 8 brands. 4 will be permanent brands (Philly Loves Lacquer, Smokey Mountain Lacquers, Rica and My Indie Polish) as well as 4 guest makers. For May the guest brands are Seventy Seven Nail Lacquer, Top Shelf Lacquer, Paint Box Polish and Blue Eyed Girl Lacquer.

The theme is Musical Movies, so all 8 polishes are inspired by exactly that.

Let’s jump in, and all purchasing info will be located at the bottom of the post.

May 2016 Magic 8 Box Overview

The May 2016 Magic 8 Box has a great mix of finishes and colors all in one spot. I love the Musical Movies theme (I was always into musicals) so that’s a hit too. Almost as much as I loved 80’s Music from the March box! I’m also pretty familiar with all 8 makers in this box, and knew when I saw the lineup that I’d be happy.
