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 $200 value Maven November Box


 Happy Wednesday!
I would see on other blogs how the lovely ladies got the big mack daddy $200 maven box and I would think.....no way I would get that.
But I did!

I knew the second I saw the size that it was something special!

 I ripped into it immediately when got the package. lol


 I went and put it back together after I realized....Oh crap, I gotta take pictures. Hehehehe....




 The Julep Pink Grapefruit Body Frosting and Body Scrub with the scrub cloth and mitt.
Smells soooooo good. The frosting is whipped and absorbs really niclely.

The body scrub is also whipped and I can not wait to try in my shower tonight!

 I'm beyond thankful for this surprise. When I was looking at the choices, I was having a hard time to decide. Its like Julep knew I wanted them all. ;-)

Hailee (Khaki)
Minka (Oxblood red)

 I put a top coat on tips to try to show the difference but didn't show up to great.


Trina (Deep aubergine shimmer)
Donna (Smokey peacock blue crème)
Matte Top Coat

Used the matte top coat on the tips so you can see the difference. 
These two colors are so rich and luscious looking. just plain beautiful!
