Julep May Box

Julep May: The Fresh Twist Collection
This was my first time buying the whole collection. The diversity of the shades and the gorgeous shimmer polishes made it worth it to me.
Maddy- a bold hot pink with silver shimmer.
Romana- a very pale pastel lavender.
Kam- a pastel spearmint green creme. 
Jules- a soft basic pink shade. A girl can never go wrong with a polish like this.
Iona- a bold blue that leans purple.
Jeanne- a bright baby blue creme.
Paulette- a medium lilac with gold shimmer .
Laree- this shade is a mixture between coral and dark pink with gold shimmer.
Sayaa- a peach pastel with gold shimmer.

Julep Alice & Rosa

This is two coats on its own. It has a lovely soft silver shimmer to it.

I added Julep "Rosa" using the tape technique.

Coral & Gold Glitter Gradient

For this look I used Julep "Minnie" & "Oscar."
I made this look by sponging on the glitter focusing the most glitter to the tip of the nail.

Julep Maven April Box

The Vivid Collection.
I went a little bit overboard with this months box. For the main items I went with the It Girl box. From top to bottom the colors are Maren, Flora, Bailey, & Felecia.
Maren is a bubblegum pink with blue shimmer. 
Flora is a bright magenta purple with blue shimmer. 
Bailey is a neon blue jelly. This is three coats over two coats of China Glaze "Snow."
Felecia is the special add-on polish for this month. It is a mint green cream with small black glitter speckles.
I got two blushes and a bronzer from this months collection too. From left to right are the blush in Peach Bellini, blush in Petal Pink, and the bronzer in Light Golden Bronze.These are very powdery. As you can see on the edges of the pans, a lot flakes off as soon as a brush touches it. Peach Bellini does not blend well, it looks a bit blotchy on my cheeks. Petal Pink, however, works really well.

Julep Holly

I got this polish as part of a special Oscar's promotion that Julep was having a few weeks ago. I must admit that I am a bit let down by this polish. It looks nothing like the swatch that they posted which was much more dense and had a metallic finish. This shimmer is so sheer that at four coats it still was not opaque. This is not the Julep quality that I am used to.

Accent Nails

For this look I used Sation's "The One & Phony" over Butter London "Trout Pout" as glitter accent nails. I bordered it with Julep "Cleopatra."

Floral Nails ft Julep

Today I have this floral design to show featuring all Julep nail polishes. Please forgive me for the bad cuticles/ paint on my skin. This is from three years ago. For the base I used "Miranda," this inside of the roses is "Carrie," lining of the roses is "Carmen," and the leaves were made using "Stephani."

Jewelmint

This is the rose gold "Kitty's Ring" from Jewelmint. I thought it was too cute not to share.
I have Julep "Betty" on my nails in the picture.
