January Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

Today I have my January maven box to show you. This months theme was Chrysalis which means change. There are some changes to the maven program this year, they're going to really start focusing on beauty products as much as polish instead of polish with a side of beauty products. We'll see how this goes.

Lacquer Lust - Butt Bootie Naked

Hey guys,

Today I have a squashed lemming to show you! I've wanted this nude holo for a long time now and it was always sold out when I went to go buy it so I decided to grab it when I saw it in stock at Harlow & Co and I'm glad I did because man do I love this! There is something about a nude holo that I just love

My Beauty Spot - "Cranberry"

Hey guys,

 So this is a brand I have seen several times at Winners, usually in some faux Ciate type packaging. I am always leery of buying brands I've never really heard of. That being said I acquired this one from my bestie Nicole, I'm pretty sure she got it in a subscription box. I tried googling it and really can't find anything about this brand other than a post or two here and there.

This colour is right up my alley and this was a colour the BF chose when I told him to grab a polish off the table for me to wear. I have to say this polish smells really bad. I couldn't find an ingredients list or anything so I have no clue if it is 3 free or not I just tried not to inhale. Otherwise application was nice.

Julep - Geena - January Birthstone

Hey guys,

Today I have the first polish from Julep's 2015 Birthstone collection. I didn't think they would be making another one, but I'm actually not surprised because there are usually alternate birthstones and some people were unhappy with the choices so hopefully this year they'll be able to wrap up the alternates and make everyone happy. This is a pink shimmer with a blue flash, it's quite pretty not something I would likely wear all the time but pretty none-the-less
This was three coats.

Julep - Bette

Hey guys,

Wow so I have really sucked about the whole posting on Mondays and Wednesdays then weekends thing. Of course Mondays and Wednesdays are busy days for me good job Caitlin. Sorry guys please bear with me. Anyways so I've never really been super into make up or products without chemicals, I mean I'm not against it but I've never really cared but I spent some time in Lush today and they do a lot of Vegan products (I'm so not a vegan) and I tried one of their shampoos (totally weird for me to put sea salt in my hair) and I LOVED it. I may be a convert. But still not a hippy

Today I have a bright Julep polish to show you. This is a fluorescent purple, which obviously isn't a super fluorescent color so this is about as bright as it gets. This dried semi-matte and when a top coat was added had a jelly effect. This was three coats.

Nicole by OPI - I Lilac Gumdrops

Hey guys,

Today I have one of NOPI's textured gumdrops polishes to show you. This was a birthday gift from my friend Jazmin and I was super excited to try this one out. It reminds me a lot of China Glaze's Sea Goddess collection i loved this shimmery lilac, the texture of this was fairly fine. This was two coats.
