I haven't ordered a Julep box since May because I just haven't been interested at all. None of the colors nor cosmetics that they offered really piqued my interest until this month.
I went with the Bombshell box which contained Cleopatra, described as a black latex creme, Valerie, a teal with an iridescent microglitter, and their new Kajal eye glider. I haven't had a chance to try the eyeliner nor Valerie yet but I thought I'd bring you my thoughts on Cleopatra.
Ok.
I wanted to love this polish.
I REALLLLY wanted to love this polish.
But I just don't.
The formula was smooth like most of Julep's polishes and didn't have much trouble during the application. It was a little streaky and I had to keep trying to fix the brush marks that were left visible after the polish dried. It dried fairly quickly butttt it also chipped extremely quickly! I had it on for about 45 minutes before I noticed 4 chips on one hand. I wear matte finish polishes often (like my favorite, Mentality) and don't have issues with the immediate chipping.
My accent finger is Adella by Sealore Polish
( 2 coats, no top coat in direct sunlight)
It was just eh. I had such high hopes for the polish. Will I keep it in my collection? Yes. I like the finish of it, the latex look is pretty cool but as far as one that I can rave about? That's not happening. I am usually head over heels with Julep's polishes so maybe this one was just a fluke.
Did you get a Julep box this month? Which did you get?!
