Sorry about the stupid sideways picture guys... Kept trying to fix it and it is absolutely not working.

All "Midori" scented cuticle balm, rollerball perfume and a cooling gel. The cooling gel is pretty awesome, I couldn't tell if it actually cooled my skin, per say, but it smells pretty and has sparkles.

Thanks for the pictures! The middle polish looks like it might be my favorite out of the bunch.

I really love all of the colors, they are all so different. The purple color is called Chemical Plant and I think it's awesome, I have a huge fascination with power plants, and nuclear accidents so this color was right up my alley.

The extras this month smell amazing! Like rubbing kool-aid on yourself, lol.

looks great!!

 

[biancardi]

totally digging the scent they gave us this month. And I have to put chemical plant on NOW!!

What a great month!

Got mine too. I like the colors, especially Chemical Plant. I think I've decided that the chunky glitter polishes aren't for me though. I think I may have to cancel.

Mine won't be here til tomorrow. I accidentally saw a spoiler on IG. This is the first time I have seen what's in it before it gets to me. Can't wait to smell the scent and really excited about another cuticle balm. I've used my other one daily for the last month. Love them so much more than lip balms.

Ooh, got mine, too!  I guess they must use more-natural perfume oils for their fragrances than non-indie fragrance companies because I think this is another alcohol-containing fragrance I can wear!  So far, they're three for three on that front, although I lost Summer Juice after wearing it just a couple of times.  I also think I love this gel.  Sparkles!

But my favorite part:  The Mix Tape collection discount.  I'm planning on getting the whole thing.  I'm of The Age where mix tapes were very, *very* important for high school and college.  I don't think the playlist generation really understands how much we agonized over the perfect mix tape!  I just hope they do a mini version of the collection.  I want them all, but I'm not sure I can really justify *full-sized* versions of everything.

ANYWAY.  Although I was initially hoping for a wider variety of non-polish items, I think they have really hit a groove with a fragrance, a balm (either lip or cuticle), and some sort of body product in one or two coordinating scents.  I don't need a new lip/cuticle balm every month, but maybe if I know I'm probably going to get a cuticle balm at least every other month, maybe I'll actually *use them* instead of saving them for when I "really need it."  Prevention, gang!  I just seem to forget that part!  (I have no such problem with lip balm.  I constantly use that stuff, and I always love to get another one in a sub.  I really love the fact that the one we received in May was oval because that means it won't just roll off my table/nightstand.)

I'm right there with you on the mix tapes... I've just about gone blue in the face trying to explain to young people how a mix CD or playlist is NOT THE SAME THING. And how we used to sit by the radio waiting for a song to come on so we could record it for our mix tapes... and then would get so angry when the DJ started talking before the song was over! I can't wait to see a few of them based on the descriptions, and I'll definitely be snagging a full-size of Waves.

Oh, yes, the *timing*.  And sequencing?  You want *this* song after *that* song?  Yeah.  Right.  Good luck with that.  Have you ever seen _High Fidelity_?  There's a scene in there where Rob is trying to put together the perfect mix tape for a girlfriend.  It took me back.  I'm sure it's in the book (which I actually own but have yet to get around to actually *reading*), but because of my age, seeing JOHN CUSACK embody those actions really carved it in stone.

I'm a little young for the mixtape thing, but High Fidelity is one of my favorite movies. I show it to all my real friends  B)

My "Mr. Sensitive Ponytail Man" boyfriend ("Singles" reference) my freshman year in college broke up with me by mixed tape.  He went to Georgia Tech and I went to the University of Oklahoma.

It was full of so much early 90s angst - "Black" by Pearl Jam, "Too Far Down" by Hüsker Dü, "Different Drum" by Lemonheads . . . on and on it went until it closed with U2's "One".

I still have a knee-jerk reaction to punch a wall when I hear "One".   /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />   Of course I got my revenge almost 20 years later when I found out he had triplets and was divorced.  I ended up married to the next guy I dated, 18 years of bliss, and two adorable sons.  I win!   /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

My tracking just updated to push it out another day but it does say it's "out for delivery"... can't contain my excitement... this is by far my favorite part of the month..

 

[Christa W]

The color of the month for July is Neon Blossom from the May subscription bag.  I don't purchase high enough quantities of RH polishes to be getting it with order but have they done this before?

The items in our mystery bag are new items - ones that might be up for sale later on their site or maybe never.

So, that is normal. May's Neon Blossom was a possible nail color for future months. It was not on their site before now.

As far as I can tell, this *is* the first time a mystery bag color been a COTM. I was very surprised (and disappointed) when it happened.
