I have been craving chocolate-covered coffee beans all day, so I will have to contend with having equally delicious-looking nails! Julep-Olivia is described as a “rich and graceful, dark chocolate truffle crème” and could have been opaque in one coat, but I always feel better doing two. The formula of this polish was ever slightly more watery than other Julep polishes I have used so my cuticles needed a bit more clean-up than usual as the polish would bleed into them. Other than that, this is a beautiful espresso brown and is a fantastic “cold-weather” polish. I just wish fingerprints didn’t show up quite so easily!
Hope everyone is having a Happy Hump Day!

These are sooo beautiful!
ReplyDeleteIs there anywhere else to get Julep other than sephora?
You can get the Julep polishes through Julep.com!
DeleteI once tried out a brown that I absolutely hated. Now I 'm a bit afraid to even dabble in that sort of thing. But it does look lovely on you! :)
ReplyDeleteI know, this is probably the second dark brown I own. They aren't normally my favourite to wear, but I can imagine Olivia with gold on top which would be really pretty!
DeleteI absolutely love this colour! I normally hate brown polishes but this is one I think I would like!

It's very chocolatey which is what made it very appetizing to look at! I'm normally not a brown polish lover either!
DeleteOh this is a nice rich colour, I like it! I hate watery polishes though
ReplyDeleteThe wateriness was surprising I must say! I really didn't expect it with a Julep polish, but then again, every colour is different.
DeleteSuch a gorgeous brown! I love these expresso browns, so dark and rich! :)
ReplyDeleteIt was a pleasant surprise how rich the colour was!
DeleteWhat a beautiful shade! Your nails look lovely!
ReplyDeleteAww, thank you! It's so much work to maintain them!
DeletePretty! It's a very flattering shade! Reminds me to bring out Essie Little Brown Dress more often :) x
ReplyDeleteI know, we don't wear a lot of dark browns eh?
DeleteGorgeous brown!
ReplyDeleteThank you Meredith!
DeleteThis colour makes me crave chocolate covered raisins!
ReplyDeleteLOL, you are so right! Mmmm, now I'm hungry!
