#NOTD Julep - Brittany


Hey There,

Happy Thursday! 

Today I just wanted to pin point a popping color from www.julep.com (some shades are also available at Sephora).  

But I just have to say that this Julep Color Treat Nail Polish in the shade Brittany (Classic with a Twist) 

 I have received two compliments and couple of other second glances (which never happens) when I wear polish.

 My goal is to become a little better at painting my nails and take better care of my nail beds so that my nail shots can be a little more on point :) I'm working on it. 

But I used the Sephora brand Formula X System along with this Julep polish. 

This Brittany shade is described as a Bleached apricot ghost shimmer crème.
Let me know what you think. Do you have a similar nail color from a different brand?

This is a shade that I will probably use all year round. 

Thanks for Reading!!!

Julep June Maven Box

Greetings Show Off's, 

So, when I received this Julep Maven box in the mail last week, the girls were standing right behind me as I opened and of course the two lollipops inside were really appealing to them. So, I had to hurry up and go and grab my camera and take pics so that they could hurry up and have them. SMH.  So, these pics may not be as good as I may have wanted :) I though that was cute though (that this box came with lollipops).

This seemed to be a Limited Edition box because inside was: 
Lori (left) and Jacqueline (right)
and these are limited edition polishes. 
Lori (Classic with a Twist) and Jacqueline (Classic with a Twist) are both apart of the month of "The Deep End Collection".

Breakthrough Oxygen Technology powers this fast-drying, long-lasting nail polish to get nailshealthy and more beautiful at the same time. Our proprietary 5-free, vegan-friendly formula also includes strengthening Hexanal and antioxidant green coffee extract. You'll never look at nail polish the same way again.
Pro Tip
from julep.com
  1. Start with a base coat. This protects your nails from damage and staining, and creates a smooth base for your nail polish.
  2. Apply nail polish in thin layers, and give each coat time to dry before applying the next. This helps your color dry evenly and quickly.
  3. To extend the life of your manicure, start each layer by sealing your free edges. Lightly brush nail polish across the edge and under the tip of each nail.
  4. To make your nail polish pop, apply a layer of white polish between the base coat and color.
  5. Finish with a top coat to protect your nail polish against chips. Reapply every couple of days to keep your manicure looking fresh.

The Lori color is labeled as a Jelly polish which is described as Pressed marionberry jelly. It brushes on very sheer.

The Jacqueline color is described as a Bright grenadine shimmer.
(Please excuse the pen marking on my hand. The lady that did my pedicure yesterday randomly read my palm and told me that I was very kind/good, lucky, and will have too much money next year, lol)

The box also came with a Limited Edition lip gloss. This gloss is in the color Candy Apple.
Details 
from julep.com
What it is:
Enriched with natural ingredients that soothe, hydrate, and plump lips, this silky-smooth treatment delivers major moisture with a hint of tint.
What it does:
Cooling Zamac tip soothes lips and boosts microcirculation
Omega-rich pumpkin seed oil boosts lipids & helps retain elasticity
Healing oil blend enhances definition & locks in hydration
Vitamin E unleashes protective antioxidants to prevent collagen loss
Pro Tip
from julep.com
Apply liberally before bed for an intensive overnight treatment. Your lips will absorb the moisture while you sleep. and you'll wake up with a full, lovely pout.
Review
I love that this gloss and a metal applicator. I have never seen this before. I also love that it is not sticky like most glosses can be.  It goes on really smooth and feels really moisturizing. I don't have any liner on in this picture, however, I think this gloss would go great with some brown liner.

Review: Julep May Birthstone Welcome Box for New Maven Subscribers


***This is a monthly subscription offer***

Greetings Beauties! 


and Happy Mother's Day to all of the Beautiful Mothers :) 


So I recently became a new Julep Maven and today I am reviewing my Free 4-Piece May Birthstone Welcome Box for New Maven Subscribers.

The box is  filled with three Julep nail colors and one fan favorite beauty product. This welcome box is valued at $58.00, but it is free for new subscribers, where you only pay $2.99 for shipping. As a Julep Maven you get brand-new, can't-miss color and beauty each month. I was especially excited to become a New Maven this month because this is the twin's birthday month, and the color inside this box Cher - Emerald for May is really pretty. I painted their nails with it already :) The other colors in the box are awesome as well.





Shelly - It Girl 
\

Jahnavi - Classic with a Twist

Cher - Emerald for May

I love all of these. I also love that the ingredients in these polishes are made with Vegan ingredients. 

Again, the box also came with a fan favorite beauty product which was a gel eye glider in the shade Smoky Taupe Shimmer. This eye pencil glides on really smooth and is very pigmented. The swatch that I applied to my hand stayed there all day long. That's how I could tell this is a quality beauty product, and I understand why it is a fan favorite.  



Here is how it appears applied to the eyes.
