Square Hue stash

I thought I had exactly 25 SquareHue polishes, but as usual, there are strays. The lovely 5x5 grid is not actually correct. It matches the number on my spreadsheet, but what I finally figured out was that I didn't add the three I got most recently to the spreadsheet, so the numbers are off. I actually have 28, and I'll add those in later on.
My SquareHues are scattered chronologically all over the past several years - I bought a few sets in late 2014, cancelled in early 2015, subscribed again for a few months at the end of 2015 and into early 2016, and have started up again this year. And I also bought one 2016 set in a sale recently. So I have at least a couple of sets for every year since 2014. 2014 had a city theme, 2015 went decade by decade, 2016 was an adventure theme, and 2017 is various kinds of dances. I have them separated below by color, not by set, though.

I always try to take pictures of Square Hue bottles from the back, because the front label covers the polish up.

This is Odhani (from 2017), Lake Louise (2016), Akamai (2016), Lodgepole Pine (2016) and Na Prikope (2014):


Vaclavske Namesti (2014), Baby Baby Baby (2015), Victorian End (2015), Ikaika (2016), Gibson Girl (2015):


Nani (2016), Bird Fling (2015), Limeña (2017), Vogue (2015), Y2K (2015)


First Flight (2015), Parizska (2014), Hurricane (2015), Never Forget (2015), Idol (2015)


Johnston Canyon (2016), Via Sant'andrea (2014), Desert Storm (2015), Olympiad (2015), Via Montenapoleone (2014)


For the record, here are the sets I have. I have the full set of three for all of them except the 2017 ones - those I only have two of each three.
The three polishes that weren't in these pictures were from the oldest and the newest sets, as it happened; they were Via Della Spiga, from the Milan set in 2014, and then Norteña, from Marinera, and Lengha from Kalbelia, both from this summer.

(I'mna have to think about favorites. I'll do another entry for that, when I decide something.)


Note that the link above for Via Della Spiga is a destash post and I remembered that, but it wasn't in the box with the rest of the destash candidates. But it's a really pretty red and I think I had been waffling and that's why it wasn't there. I suspect it's staying for now.
