March Julep Maven Box

Hey guys

Today I have the March Julep Maven box to show you guys!
There were a lot of jellies and soft springy colours in this month's collection but I decided to go with this trio, along with their new invisible lip liner, Get In Line, which I HATED. It felt waxy and made my lipstick clump.
Anyways for polish swatches click for more after the jump

OPI - Don't Speak

Hey guys,

So every Christmas lately OPI seems to be coming out with a 18k gold topcoat of some sort. Last year it was Mariah Carey's Pure. This year it was Gwen Stefani Don't Speak.
OPI has previously put out a yellow gold topcoat in Man with the Golden Gun which I don't have, so I can't compare the two. However my NPBFF did swatch it on her blog so go check that out here
Every Christmas (okay for the last two) my NBFF Melissa and I always agree to buy them for each other, because this makes more sense than buying it for ourselves right?
From what I see this is a much more dense gold flake. With a base gold shimmer.

What do you guys think of this one compared to MWTGG?
This is one coat over black.

Julep - Liza - March Birthstone

Hey guys,

Today I have the newest of the Julep Birthstone collection to show you. So like I've said before. I thought this year was alternate birthstones like Onyx and Rose Quartz well apparently they are also doing "re-do's" of birthstones people weren't 100% happy with. I won't lie I like the finish on this Aquamarine polish way more than last year's. This one was way more shimmery and pretty.
This was one coat over Beautifully Disney's This Way, That Way.

Lacquer Lust - Aquamarine - March Birthstone

Hey guys,

Well it happened. After almost ALL our snow had melted it snowed again last night

Yep everything is snowy again. Yay spring.

Today I have the March Lacquer Lust birthstone holo to show you guys. I love these holos! I so badly am wishing for a restock at Harlow and Co so I can grab the ones I am missing! Otherwise we'll have to skip May and October. Anyways this is gorgeous with great application.
This was two coats.

Julep - Sawyer

Hey guys,

So over the past few months since I've gotten busier in my life obviously I have cut down how often I post. But I have also tried to just quit buying as much polish, which is HARD! Especially when you have impulse control problems and insist upon buying the whole Morgan Taylor Cinderella collection because you're obsessed with the movie. OR being quite tempted to order the entire Julep April collection. (THEY'RE JUST SO PRETTY AND BRIGHT) Anyways I'm the worst and my bank account hates me.

Today I have a super neat polish my best friend gave me, this is a bronzey-gold duochrome. At first I was kind of like yeah that's pretty. And then I put it on and I LOVE IT!!!

Zoya - Gilda

Hey guys,

So Spring has almost sprung here! Well I mean that as for the most part the snow is melting and there is actually some green grass sprouting. Of course I was all excited about that until my friend sent me pictures of what it looks like in Vancouver right now and all the blooming cherry blossoms. I told her to shove it. It was a gorgeous picture.

Today I have a pretty shimmery iridescent pink polish to show you. This is so bright and fun and perfect for spring. I love this, This was three coats.

Julep - Joanne

Hey guys,

So today I did the unthinkable - I started a personal blog. Yeah after 3+ years of boring you guys on here I've decided (maybe with a bit of a push) to air my thoughts and rants elsewhere. So if you want to check that out (no pressure) you can click here.

Today I have a really pretty muted plum polish to show you guys. This was a present from my bestie Nicole, and I love this. I feel like loving cremes is a sign of maturity. Is it just me?
Anyways this was almost a one coater but I did two for good measure.

Julep - Ilsa

Hey guys,

So in the past week I have seen a MASSIVE influx in Likes on my facebook page for the blog. Like my fanbase has doubled in the past week. I'm shocked. It's awesome, so grateful. If anyone wants to let me know where that influx is coming from please do!

Today I have a gorgeous midnight blue to show you. And this was a ONE COATER. Man I wish I had a bell to ring when that happens. Or maybe start some kind of one coater list. We'll see.

Crabtree & Evelyn - Pomegranate

Hey guys,

Sorry for the lack of posts this week, the week just totally got away from me, it's shaping up to be a busy couple weeks. I'm going to try my best not to let that happen again though.

Today I have a polish to show you from a brand I've never heard of before, but according to their website looks to be a pretty well established brand . This was a pretty shimmery berry with nice application.
This was two coats.

Essie - Under The Twilight

Hey guys,

So I know I've talked before about how I sort of gave up on Essie after just a run of polish disappointments. As a rule Essie mostly does creme polishes, which is great but if that is your thing then your formula and pigmentation should be spot on. Which I find is hit and miss with Essie.

This polish was given to me by my bestie Nicole and I am happy to report this Essie was everything I wanted it to be, great application and nice pigmentation.  For a dark blue it didn't stain either.
This was two coats.
