(Spoilers) Julep March 2014

[jennm149]

Got my maven box today and can't believe how much I love Lizanne, especially with Tania over it. Also like it as a base for Bad Catholic, from Llarowe's A Box, Indied that also arrived today. I just slapped these on over my existing polish, so please excuse the mess!

Did anybody else get the text offer today for 50 percent off the resort collection? It gives a tiny link but I don't have data on my phone. I tried looking at Abigail but it is showing $11.20 pricing.

I got the same text and the link leads to the mini resort collection (3 mini polishes and Freedom top coat) that I think was an add on in January.

Thanks. I was thinking that whole collection was called the Resort not just the mini set.

Do you mean the March collection in general?  That was the Riviera collection.  The Resort collection is this specific set:  http://www.julep.com/shop/new-arrivals/resort-collection.html

So pretty!  I may have to copy this wearing Alice and Cameron.

Some reason, I found Monaco very thin and I needed 3 coats.

It looks thin in the bottle going by the pic above.

I'm going out to look at wedding dresses and venues tomorrow, and I swear to all I hold holy if I do not have my box tomorrow, I will make molotov cocktails out of my nail polish bottles.

I don't know if I haven't been paying attention to descriptions or what, but all the Julep cremes I try lately are disappointingly sheer. Today I learned Hannah is at least a 4-coater. I quit after 3 because I have to take it off tomorrow anyway.

Julep needs a middle ground. They went from having nail polish the texture of silly putty to runny messes. Hopefully they're getting it figured out, or Monaco was a bad batch, because for such small bottles, anything over 3 coats is too much. Especially for someone like me, who has talons /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Mystery boxes are up.

Did anyone have trouble with the goopiness of Elisa? I was going to do some geometric designs with several colors I just got, but Elisa was so goopy and thick I don't think I can do as many colors over it as I had planned. May just do Elisa and Harriet. This may be the final straw that gets me to buy some nail polish thinner.

I got mine! I can't stay away from the mystery boxes. I love the surprise! I got Aislynn (I think thats how you spell it) and I added on the Major Mystery add on. I can't wait to get it! I've made about four purchases from Julep this month, haha. Good thing tomorrow is my birthday so I have a good excuse for my hubs!

I got Taryn! But I did not get any add-on options??? Which is probably for the best, cause I shouldn't have spent the $$ on the one I was getting haha. I have had a cart full of polish for over a week now and I can't pull the trigger... Maybe I'll get some of my wish list in the mystery box? Here's hoping!

Anybody know any codes that work on the mystery box?

I'm seriously never going to do a mystery box again, they look so appealing, but I ALWAYS end up getting burned. They used to be great, but now I feel like they're just shipping out garbage. The addon last month was in savvy deals for $16. For that price, I'd rather pick my own couple of polishes from the clearance (for $2.99, I could get 3 for less than the mystery addon and I'd end up with just as much stuff). These markups are getting ridiculous :icon_frow
