Shimmer Makes Everything Better

Today I was playing with some of my nail polishes, so I have a couple of Julep swatches for you.

The first is Julep's Mischa. It's a red orange color with shimmer.

I love this color. It's super gorgeous and easy to work with.

I also painted my nails with Julep's Maggie and Julep's Mila.

Julep's Maggie is a dark purple with shimmer. Since it's so dark, I think that the shimmer enhances the look of the polish and makes it prettier.
Julep's Mila is a full coverage glitter polish. Although it's more silvery than anything else, it also has red, green and gold glitter in it.

I used these two colors to do a sort of reverse manicure.

This is how it turned out:

What do you guys think?

I love silvery glittery with purple polishes. I think they go so well together.


By the way, if you like this nail polish and want to know more about the Maven subscription box program, you can do an introductory box for a penny. If you want to do this, just go to the website (Click Here)  take the quiz and put in the code COLORS4ONE during checkout. This is good for only the first month though. However, you can always cancel after that if you aren't satisfied with the polishes.

Purple Bling

I have a formal company party this weekend. This is a fun annual event that allows everyone in the company to get together and celebrate their hard work for the year.

I have my dress, shoes and today, my nails are ready as well.

I needed a polish to match my cute purple dress.

I decided on Julep's Morgan, which I got in my June subscription box.

However, my dress not only is purple, but it also has a one shoulder strap with a bit of bling, bling on it, so I needed something sparkly on my nails as well.

I decided to put on Julep's Mila, which came in my July box.

This manicure looks perfect with my dress.

After I had put on my topcoat and finished drying, I put on Shea Terra Organics Mango whipped shea butter on my hands to moisturize them.

I got this sample with my July Glossybox and it is great. This Shea Butter has vitamins A & E and it makes my hands super smooth.
