Color Club Nail Polish - Mrs. Robinson










The perfect color for Spring! The bright Fuschia creme color goes on smoothly and dries quickly. I used 2-3 coats for full coverage. The nail polish lasted 3-4 days without a top coat before I got chips.

Mayfair Soap Foundry Body Crème in Sea Lily Jasmine






The rich body cream is enriched with shea butter, cocoa seed butter, safflower oil, and sunflower oil. The sweet-scented lotion had scents of white lily, jasmine, and rose. The luxurious body cream left my skin feeling soft and delicately scent. A definite treat for anyone who loves the floral scent.

Julep Nail Polish - Julianne










Ah, I am so sad that Julep is closing down their Maven program. I used to be a member for a few years and liked that they offer an affordable option to get two nail polish and a skincare/makeup item for around $25 a month. I liked that you were able to customize and skip a month. If I had known they were going to discontinue the program, I would have definitely stocked up during their sales. Although the store is still open, I feel like the inventory won't last or they won't add new products. Granted I feel $14 normal price is a bit expensive for this nail polish as it has less than a product than it's competitors. I am usually able to get three uses of two coats before the nail polish becomes goopy. And maybe another two uses before the bottle is done while other brands I get at least 10 or more uses. Well enough of my diatribe and on to my review!

The smokey grey creme nail polish goes on smoothly. However, it goes on a bit thick than other colors. One coat does give semi-full coverage with a few opaque spots but, two coats provide full coverage. However, any more than two coats cause the nail polish to become very thick and takes forever to dry. I consider this a neutral (compared to my bright neons and colorful glitter nail polishes) that perfect to wear for work.

Nivea Soft Moisturizing Creme










I have used Nivea products in the past few years but, I believe this was the first time I have tried this product. I read that it got so many good reviews, I figured I would give it a shot since I have terrible dry skin. The light formula is enriched with Vitamin E and Jojoba Oil to promote soft, smooth and supple skin. While the creme promises to be fast absorbing,  I felt that my skin was still a bit greasy afterwards albeit moisturized though.

Julep Nail Polish - Keena










The white creme nail polish went on smoothly during the first coat but clumpy after the second. It was slightly opaque on the first swipe while the second coat provided full coverage and high glossy shine. However, the nail polish was a bit clumpy, hard to dry and dented/chipped/stained quite easily. Julep's website noted the color as "Lily White with Peach Ghost Shimmer", but I didn't notice any Peach Ghost Shimmer. Maybe, because it's a ghost, it's hard to see unless you believe they really exist.
