Julep Sea Salt Mystery Box Arrived!

Hey Guys!
Happy Wednesday!

My mystery box arrived!

 So as you can see I got a nail file and toe seperator thingies as a bonus gift.

So as the description says, we are going to get one of the new Seal Salt Finish polishes in this box. There were three colors and I really was good with any color I was gonna get and I have zero textured polishes so I was excited to try one out. 

And for polishes:

I got three dupes in this box. One was  Vivienne but  I really like so that was not as disappointing. Another dupe was the Matte Top Coat which ehhhhh.....and the third was Simone. To be honest.....I didn't even realize I already had Simone till I went to put on my racks. LOL

 From top to bottom:

Descriptions from Julep site:

Vivien: "'Champagne bubbles'- a full coverage multi-dimensional gold glitter"

Jill: "Smoked beige Sea Salt Finish"

Claudette: "Smoky brick red crème"

Simone: "Soft pastel lilac opalescent shimmer"

Matte Top Coat: "Apply to create an ultimate matte suede finish."

 Here is the way that Jill came out with the texture.

I applied one thin coat, waited for it to dry completely then applied another thin coat.

 I did not use a base coat with this. 

I wasn't sure how I would like the textured feel and look but....I gotta say that I'm kinda digging it.

You know I'm gonna try stamping over this too...Ill keep you updated on that.

Alrighty guys that is all for today but thank you for taking time to stop by and

 I hope you have a great day!

Julep Maven March It Girl Box Mani

Hey Guys! Happy Monday!

As promised, here is the mani I came up with using

 the colors in the Julep Maven March It Girl Box.

These colors are just perfect for spring!

 I decided to use a sponge technique to get the watercolor like background.

I also could not wait to use my new Winstonia Plates!

Here I used W111

 From Top to Bottom:

Julep Freedom Polymer Top Coat

Julep Simone

Julep Teri

Julep Shenae

I forgot to take picture of it but used Sally Hansen Insta Dri in Silver Sweep for the stamping.

I really love how these came out and I hope you do too.

Thank you for checking these out and I hope you have a fantastic rest of your week!

Julep Maven March "It Girl" Box

Happy Saturday Everyone!

I know it has been a while and I am so sorry. I had gotten into a car accident. I was driving and hit some water, hydroplaned and hit a tree. 

Luckily the only injuries I sustained was a super sprained wrist and I broke my tibia and ankle.

My beautiful Challenger was totaled but I am just so thankful that these were the only injuries!

Ok so onto the Julep Maven March Box!

 This month's theme is Get Ready to Play.

 I totally think I will be taking inspiration for the card and doing a look with a matte topcoat to mimic this chalk idea in the card.

As a bonus they included this Strawberry -Mint Lip Balm

Oh my goodness is this tasty!

It is super soft and very moisturizing!

Here are the three colors and the descriptions are from Julep's site:

From Top to Bottom:

Julep Simone: "Soft pastel lilac opalescent shimmer"

Julep Teri: Tropical coral pink crème"

Julep Shenae: "Pastel mint green opalescent shimmer"
