On my nails is Brooke from this month’s Julep Maven Box. It’s a shimmery purple that’s very sheer and is a duochrome. Since the polish is very sheer, the duochrome is only obvious after two to three coats, but it is nevertheless pretty.
The duochrome contains hints of pink and very light ice blue? I’m wearing it alone in the photo below, but it would make for a very lovely accent on top of your solid polishes.
My March Julep Maven box arrived a week ago. Honestly, I totally forgot about the program and didn’t get a chance to switch my box.
I’m just glad that I like both shades I received and you can’t lose with Organic Argan Oil (I use it Josie Maran’s Argan Oil daily as a moisturizer). Anyway, the two polish shades included in this month’s box are:
Brooke sheer shimmery purple. Perfect for adding a bit of punch to other shades I already have.
Jennifer nude pink. It’s very sheer and is opaque after two or three layers, but it’s not streaky so that’s a plus! I was actually thinking of getting a nude polish so this came just in time.
The other shade I got recently from Julep’s Maven program is Maya, a pearlized champagne peachy-pink. Doesn’t it look so pretty?? Too bad it’s super close to my skin tone; gah, my hands look very washed out. Julep’s Maya goes opaque after two layers, but it’s a little on the streaky side although it’s not so visible in the photograph below.
I’m not so sure if it’s due to my nail polish applying skill (or lack thereof), but I redid my left hand twice and both attempts yielded the same streaky result.
