Julep Spring 2012 Mystery Box

I Love Julep Mystery boxes!!!! ACK! ADDICTED!!!

Here's what I got this time:



From left to right: Brooke, Basecoat, Cuticle Oil, Marisa, and Melissa.

Brooke, left, is a gorgeous purple glitter. It won't stand on it's on two feet, but I'm excited about layering it over other colors. In fact, I just put it over the blue Marisa and it's freakin' awesome! However...it does not photograph well! I wish I could show you!

The cuticle oil from Julep is the best I've ever tried. It really softens up those cuticles like no other!!! Marisa, the blue, is awesome. There are swatches below. It's got tiny little shimmers in it and this is going to be my go-to polish for the Fourth of July!! Melissa is one I already own and unfortunately it's not one of my favorites. It's meant for layering over other polishes to make them a pearlescent light green, but I've found that it really takes over. I like layered polishes to improve the base one, not overcome them. Oh well!

This is a great box!

Here are the Marisa swatches:




Thanks for reading!!

  1. That Marisa, sure is beautiful. I have Brooke and it looks beautiful on top of a lilac colour. If you check out my blog I have it layered on an accent nail a couple posts down. Nice blog! :)
