I really woulnd't mind seeing another curated Julep collection. ngl that would be pretty cool
Why do I think I have heard of this set? Was it on QVC? Are y'all absolutely sure it is new? If it is, I agree with whoever said something about the Yellow Brick Road ... totally missed opportunity for another yellow!!!

 
September's colors:



Based on just swatching, I'm wondering how Daria (the gray) performs.  It seem more sheer than the other colors.  The shimmers are gorgeous. 

An alternative for Padma may be Sephora by OPI's Just A Little Dangerous, which I'm wearing on my toes at the moment.  There is a slight pink shimmer in it but it's still a blackened purple.  Plus, it's on sale for $4.50 (or $3.33 if you buy 3 polishes) right now.



 
I am schedule to receive my box today.  The thrill is gone, lol

 
JALD has a lot more shimmer, it doesn't even look close to creme. I think I posted this one another post regarding BL Pitter Patter vs. JALD



BUT this is a good reminder I don't need more dark purple polish XD I have two bottles of JALD now since I wanted to get an extra in case I ran out.

I can't really make out the shimmer in Just a Little Dangerous, at least on my toes.  It almost looks black.  I'm guessing in the right light the shimmer comes out more.

Daria, just swatching on a couple of nails, looks like it is going to be a one-coater for me. Beautiful, basic color.

I was surprised by Daria. It seemed boring to me & I ordered it Bc I wanted Karmen. Then, I got it in my fingers & fell in love! I wish I felt the same love for Karmen...I'm not crazy about it.

Good to hear!  I love a good gray.

Same here ... I ordered because of Karmen ... don't like it on my nails at all ... but love Daria!

 
I thought Julep was slipping, but last night confirmed it ... I got my shipping notices for Carly, Barbara, and Faye. I had almost forgotten that I ordered them. Shipping notice was so many days after order was placed ... used to get shipping notice within 24 hours of order.

 
Back to the wizard of oz collection for a minute.  I am not sure but that red sure could be Karmen.  I put it on for today and it sure looks like some ruby red slippers.

Karmen has gold in it. The red in the Oz set does not.

Duh ... I went back to the original post on this from gypsymagic ... and it is QVC ... I knew I had heard about it before. I really want to order ... just to have as a keepsake of the movie, more than anything ... but I wish they would offer it to Mavens at a discounted price.

 
Anybody biting on Julep's emails this week profiling someone who is each type: It Girl, Boho Glam, etc. with a free gift for the first 250? Just not interesting to me at all.

There were a couple of sets I was interested in, but none of the GWP really interested me.  So I skipped it.

Maybe the (dare I say it...) Mystery Box will look interesting.

Yeah the pricing was a little steep for me to bite.

Maybe ... should be out next week, right? Around the 12th? I didn't get August's after the big letdown I had over the Golden Mystery Box. But I loved July's. So maybe they are due for another great one? Maybe this is where the green is that wasn't in this month's collection???

I've deleted every one but the first without even looking at them. lol
