March Julep It Girl Box

Back-to-back Julep posts were necessary as you are now aware from reading through my last post. ;) I really love the colors I got in my March box, and I'm pretty sure you will, too. Check them out!

First, we have Margaret. It is a nice pale blue creme. It's not a dupe for anything I own, which made me very happy.

Next is Princess Grace. This name made me giggle. In high school, I had a biology teacher who always called me Princess Grace. I'm still not really too sure why. It cannot possibly be that he was actually comparing me to The Princess Grace. I always thought it had to do with how clumsy I was, like a sarcastic nickname. It is another creme and is the same color as orange sherbet or a creamsicle. It went on very nicely. This is two coats.

Last, we have Lizanne. It is a lovely green, leaning slightly teal, with a pretty shimmer. It went on so smooth and this is just two thin coats. It's definitely my favorite from this box.

These colors would all look awesome together, too. Hooray for more nail polish!!! Have a great day everyone!

Golden Oldie Thursday - Yellow

Good evening. I have to make this quick because as usual, I'm running behind and need to get to bed so I can wake up for the gym/work in the morning! This is China Glaze Kalahari Kiss. I never wore it on it's own because it looked a bit ugly, and like it would be terrible with my skin. It did turn out to be pretty ugly - "baby poop" is what my husband called it, but it was surprisingly neutral-looking. It could be a nude on someone with less pink in their skin. I don't hate it. It would definitely look good paired with another color and some fabulous nail art.

The other yellow I have to show you is Sally Hansen Lite. I had originally planned to do nail art with the two, but it just looked really bad. This is two coats of Lite over Kalahari Kiss. It is VERY thin, so you would have to paint it over some white/cream/pale yellow color to use it effectively. It's a nice, fun, bright color, so I like it.

I added a quick bit of nail art with these flowers I got in a nail art goodie bag years ago. They wouldn't lay flat liked I hoped they would, but I'm trying not to let that get me down! I'm trying to think Spring over here. I know everyone in America is complaining about the weather, but the winter just drags on for SO long here, and we are OVER it. It will be better by the end of April; it always is.

 

I'll be back this weekend with my March Julep box. Have a great Friday everyone!
