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.

Lauren B. Beauty Nail Polish - Love








Apologies, but my camera apparently didn't save the swatch photo. The Love nail polish is part of the Lauren B. Bridal Collection. It is a sheer petal pink that is buildable to give full coverage. The nail polish went on smooth but, a bit streaky. The final result was professional polished looking nails even when doing it yourself. Plus, the generous size bottle will last for several uses.

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.

Julep Nail Polish - Tanya









The carbon matte (reminds me of graphite from pencil lead) nail polish provided a full coverage after two coats. The carbon matte shimmer was a pretty effect. I found that the polish lasted 2 - 3 days before chipping. However, the polish was a bit thicker than other colors.

Julep Nail Polish - Rae












Well, I am late for this review, this nail polish is apparently from 2014! The Radiant Orchid Creme finished nail polish was the Pantone® 2014 Color of the Year. It was a lush color and provided full coverage with one swipe, but was gorgeous with two.

Julep Nail Polish - Dahlia












Julep listed this nail color as a "Goldenrod Micro Glitter", I called it liquid gold. The nail polish provided full coverage after one coat, but it could be a bit streaky. With two coats, it took a bit too dry and it still smudged easily after 30 minutes of dry time. A bit different from usual colors, but not my favorite.

Nailtiques Protein Nail Lacquer 309 Tahiti








The Nailtiques 2-in-1 nail treatment and color promises to make nails stronger and healthier by providing extra protein. The bright coral color is perfect to give your nails a well deserved treatment and color. The color lasted around 3 days before I got any chips, but I didn't notice my nails being any stronger as they still break when they get too long.
