First things first – I squovaled my nails again for the time being, I think I had enough of the round shape for now. It was great for preventing them from splitting though, but I just feel like wearing them square with brighter colors, and that’s exactly what we got in our April SquareHue Box. This time we are invited to experience the 1930’s, a decade that changed the lives of everyone in the nation forever.
HOW IT WORKS: For $14.99/month + Shipping & Handling, SquareHue subscribers receive a limited edition collection of 3 carefully curated season-appropriate nail polish colors. Each month has a distinct personality to suit a variety of dress needs. Quick drying “5-Free” Clean formula does not contain Formaldehyde, Toluene, DBP, Camphor or Formaldehyde Resin.

The first color is called Boardgame 1934, a warm reddish carrot creme [it’s almost a SquareHue orange!] with high gloss finish and semi-sheer coverage. It took me 3 thin coats to achieve the desired opacity, but the result was well worth it – a beautiful bright hue that will be perfect for summer, especially on my toes. This shade was inspired by Monopoly board game that became the favorite pastime in families across America at the height of the Great Depression, and now you will be hard pressed to find a household that doesn’t have it in their game cabinet.
The next color is called WPA 1935, a cool-toned minty green, with semi-glossy finish and opaque finish. It can be a one-coater, but I prefer to apply at least two coats for more even coverage. WPA was inspired by the famous program launched by Roosevelt in April 1935, that provided employment for over 8.5 million people across the country.
And lastly, we have a beautiful Tomorrowland 1939, a radiant orchid purple creme with high gloss finish. Like WPA it’s also a one-coater, but I just prefer using 2 coats or more for that nearly-flawless finish. This nail polish was inspired by 1939 World’s Fair Tomorrowland exhibit that introduced innovative methods of transportation.
THE VERDICT: I think my favorite color of the three is Tomorrowland, I just have a thing for these beautiful lilacs and lavenders that look both fun and classy on the nails.
