Julep Review - Tracy


July 28, 2013

Tracy is from my July Maven box.  I absolutely love, love, love this color!  This color is described by Julep as a "Sparkly Ocean Blue Sea Salt".  Sea Salt is Julep version of a textured polish.  Since it dries textured and matte, you can always apply top coat to make it shiny and smooth.  This was my first time trying a textured polish and I loved it.  I didn't think I would, but I did!  In fact I ordered some Zoya Pixie Dust polishes since I heard they are similar.  I will let you know.

I wore Tracy for two days straight.  The first day was overcast so the sparkly did not really come through outside.  The second day was sunny and my nails were so sparkly!  I received a lot of compliments inside without the sparkle.

Julep Review - Audrey

July 25, 2013

I wasn't going to do it.  I wasn't going to buy a Julep Mystery Box.  There are too many colors in my collection that I need to try, but I caved.  I went with the big summer box.  For $39.99, I received 7 nail polishes, an eyelash curler, and makeup brush.  I think I did pretty good - there was a big box that had 17 polishes in it...maybe one day.

The first of the nail polishes I tried was Audrey which is part of the "Classic with a Twist" collection.  It is described by Julep as a "Soft light pink micro-shimmer".  Like Cassie, the last polish I tried from Julep, this is very sheer.  Again, like Cassie, I really like this color in the bottle, but do not think it looks that good with my skin tone.  I think I am too pale to pull it off...maybe I need to get more sun!  Unlike Cassie, this had some glittery shimmer going on.

Julep Review - Cassie


July 12, 2013

Happy Friday Everyone!

Cassie is part of the "Classic with a Twist" collection.  It is described by Julep as a "Soft coral sheer" and it is very sheer.  I had to use three coats to get it opaque and I can still see my nail line.  The formula is not as thick as the other Julep polishes I have used.  After two days, I had a little tip wear.  I really like this color, but not with my skin tone.

Julep Review - Joanna


July 10, 2013

Julep describes Joanna as a "Lilac Frost". The color looks very silver in the bottle - That must be the frost showing through.   It is a really beautiful color and I have enjoyed wearing this one.   In fact, I got quite a few compliments on it.  I painted on two coats, but could have just done one since it was very opaque.  The formula was on the thicker side, but very easy to work with.  I had this color on for two days with no tip wear.  Joanna is part of the "Bombshell" collection.  To learn more about the different collections, look towards the bottom of this post.
