Are You Watching the Olympics?

I have been watching the Olympics as much as my schedule will allow me.  How about you? The United States is doing an awesome job.
To pledge my support I altered my manicure in red, white and blue.
I choose Julep's America glitter polish.  I'm sorry to say that polish is very hard to apply.  I struggled to just get it out of the bottle.  In my opinion this polish was very dry.  It's as if Julep put too much glitter in the bottle.  The dryness caused the brush to glop together and become stiff.  It was as if I was using a stick.
I did take photos of this and I must say it looks pretty good.  I applied two coats of SV and I need to apply another coat as the glitter is still rough on my nails.
In my opinion, the application far out weighs the end result.  I will never use it again unless I would put polish thinner with it.
I would love to know if anyone has used this polish and what is your feelings about it.
OK, let's look at the photos.




I wish you great Olympic viewing.  GO USA!!!!

It's Your Time to Sparkle with July's Julep Mavin Box

Yesterday was a "good" day!  I received my July's Julep Mavin Box. My selection is the It Girl series and this month's theme is based on "It's Your Time to Sparkle".
Sparkle it does!!  The polishes included are Daphne, Kate and Mila.  PLUS this month I received the America polish which is a gorgeous red, white & blue glitter in a red base.  America is the free item that was sent this month.
Thank you Julep for this super monthly consignment box.
I've included some photos for you to check the box out yourself.  I hope you enjoy!





It's a great deal. The box is just $19.99 monthly. The best is when you sign up for your first shipment the cost is only $ .99. Yes you heard me right!

Talk to ya later.
