Julep ~ Margaret

Hi!!! This time for you I have one of my Julep Maven polishes. This one is by far my favorite. Margaret was a flawless application with a glassy smooth finish. For these picture I did NOT use topcoat!! This dusty cornflower blue is just the most perfect spring color. It had an average dry time but everything else about it was A++++++!!! Lets get right to it. I cannot wait to show you these!! I used 2 coats of this luscious crème.  Let me know what you think :)





Julep ~ Lizanne

Who got their Julep Maven box?!?! Well, hopefully everyone has because it took me a week or so to get to posting this. I am an it girl :) What type of box do you get? This month I was actually going to cancel my box but forget, then it showed up! I am actually super glad it did because I absolutely love the colors this month! I did also get a cotton candy flavored old fashioned candy stick but my 8 year old daughter pulled the wrapper off and shoved it in her mouth before I could even read the label!! So for this post I will have Lizanne. Lizanne is a dark greenish teal color with a green shimmer. I drooled over this in the bottle... wasn't so happy with the final outcome on the nail. It lost a lot of shimmer even when I applied Glisten & Glow H K Girl fast drying & super shiny clear top coat (which as you shall see in an upcoming post on my experience)!! I even tried to use a matte top coat, as you will see on my pinky, also to no avail. Still, it is a nice color and from what I have seen so far (I don't own it) it looks a lot like O.P.I's   Amazon...Amazoff. Just more on the green side. This polish applied OK. It wasn't finicky but it wasn't nice either. Dry time was average. I used 2 coats of this crème polish for these pictures. Check them out and let me know what you think in the comments :)

Julep ~ Myrtle

Hi!! I usually dont do red and to me red is red. I know there are different shades and all that but its just not a favorite of mine. That being said, this polish is the perfect red. Rich enough for holidays but bright enough for anything!! Love it!! For this swatch i used 3 coats no top coat. Their polish must have top coat built in because its sooooo shiny :) and again the polish was a dream to work with. Went on smooth and dried quick. If you are looking for the perfect red look no more because this one is it!!

Julep ~ Elle

Hello!! This time i have Elle!! A very dark royalty type purple. Didnt like this so much in the bottle but its magic on the nails. Again a very superior formula. Two super easy coats without top coat!! Dries nicely and timely. What do you think??

Julep ~ Libby

Hey everyone!! Sorry about the lack of posts. Its the holidays so it's just been busy!! I hope everyone is ready for Christmas only a few days left!!!!! Anywho, here we have Libby a beautiful teal creme. Totally opaque in two coats. Probably the best formula in any polish brand I have ever tried!!! It went on like butter and shined like I had top coat on when I didn't. I have actually heard conflicting reviews for the julep polishes. Well my review is amazing it was awesome. Besides the fact that I just woke up to a julep box with 7 polish is in it as a surprise from my mother :) the dry time isn't bad either. Overall a super high quality polish. Checkout Libby!! enjoy :D
