January 2012 Julep Maven Box

If you love getting to try out new nail polishes then I suggest you sign up for Julep’s Maven Program! I’ve been getting the boxes for a few months now ($19.99 a month) and have found that I love their polishes and hand products!

Here are some photos of the polishes I’ve received the past few months:

I’ve also gotten full size hand care and nail care products and samples of other hand/nail care products.

I thought I would just do a quick post on what I got for this month’s box and by all means if you’re interested go and sign up! I would love it if you did it via my affiliate link: Julep Maven because I can then earn rewards. I’m all about reward systems! Once you become a Julep Maven, you get a personalized 20% code that you can use on any/all of your Julep purchases.

So this is what I got in January’s “It Girl” box!

• nail polish in Megan (Mediterranean aquamarine shimmer)
• nail polish in Hayden (bold and bright neon peach creme)
• nail polish in Leah (grass green with a hint of shimmer)
• nail therapy
• nail polish remover pad

I did some quick swatches (which is why it’s a bit sloppy and I didn’t even bother with my thumb). I found the formula of Megan and Leah to be the best but Hayden was a nightmare. I had to redo it FOUR TIMES and pretty much gave up at the end. The formula of Hayden was just super streaky for me. Megan is SUCH a gorgeous polish though, so shimmery and with Leah it’s very bright but I think is a great Spring color.

If you have any questions about any of the products or anything really, let me know!

My Nail Polish Collection

I know I’ve posted my collection a few months ago but I’ve got a lot new polishes since then and I wanted more consistent photos!

The list/photos are by brand and are not in any sort of order. If you have a question on a polish, feel free to ask! Also, by ALL means if you have any polish recommendations, share!

Watching the Snow

Just a few quick snowflake shots and a few shots of the little one watching the snow, thought I’d do some black and white photos for a change!
