Easter Nails

This is my first attempt at nail art so please be gentle :) Here is another festive mani featuring a cute little Easter bunny:

Theses are the colors that I used to achieve this spring look: 

Julep Leila, Renee, Carrie, and Susie

I also used a black polish and a white striper polish (sinful colors brand). What are you wearing on your nails this holiday? I hope everyone has a great weekend and a Happy Easter!

Butter London Lovely Jubbly

I finally received the two polishes I bought at the Ulta Butter London sale & I couldn't be more excited! Te two I got was BL Lovely Jubbly and Union Jack Black. I was originally going to get Lovely Jubbly and Fiver but unfortunately that was sold-out. I figured $9 for a decent black was a good investment and I couldn't be happier with my decision. It took only two coats to get a opaque rich, shiny black! Here is the mani I did with my new colors:

   

Lovely Jubbly is an amazing multi glitter polish that I just love! This is two coats UJB and two coats Lovely Jubbly topped with Seche Vite.

Julep Spring Mystery Box 2013

 

I got two mystery boxes for the price of one using the Julep 1/2 price gift card deal. I was originally saving it in the hopes of a Saint Patrick's Day mystery box but unfortunately Julep didn't do them this year. Sad but I am pretty happy with my boxes overall. So without further ado, here is my boxes this month:

Every mystery box came with a three chocolate eggs, a Julep nail file, three neon hair ties, and one packet of nail polish remover pads (ten pads). I was super lucky enough to get boxes number 7 & 2! This means that I got the pomegranate body products and these lovely polishes:

#7: Marie, Sarah, Sienna, and Camille (The new mystery color) 

#2: Portia, Camille, Niecy, and Blake

I do have a few duplicates from these two boxes that I will be trading out but I am excited for Camille, Marie, Blake and Sarah. I am also interested in trying the pomegranate body scrub to see how it is. Not to mention I could always use another nail file (or two)! Did you get a mystery box? Love or hate it? As always, thanks for reading!

Saint Patrick's Day Mani

Here is a picture of my festive mani:

 Sorry for the messy cleanup I had to do this quickly so I could clean for a guest I have coming tomorrow. This is 2-3 coats of Julep Cindy with an accent nail of Julep Sienna and Vivien. I topped it all off with their Freedom topcoat and that's it! Simple, but festive for the coming holiday. Here is a closer look at what I used for this look, I love all of these colors: 

Hope you all have a great weekend and Saint Patrick's Day! Make sure to wear green even if it is just on your nails, don't want to get pinched ;) -LL+M

Julep Popova Swatch

Julep Sasha Swatch

I love Sasha, it is so pretty! This is about two to three coats and is topped with Julep's Freedom Topcoat.
