Julep Chloe - redeeming the nubbins

Hello Ladies! Happy Friday!! I apologize for my lack of posting lately. It's been busy busy here and I've fallen behind. I have another few posts to share before I'm all caught up. Hopefully I'll be able to post those over the weekend.

Today I am sharing the polish that made me ok with my nubbins again - Julep Chloe. Chloe is a perfect black jelly with (what I would call) Aubergine microglitter. On the nail, the glitter looks more red, which I was a-ok with. I fell in love with this girl in the bottle, and even more so on my nails. The minute I began to apply this, I breathed a sigh of relief! Not only was I happy with the polish, but wearing Chloe made me love my nubbins again! They're by no means perfect; the shape is still far from my preference, my cuticles and fingertips are still a bit dry (at least when I wore this mani. They did improve, but I've been wearing a gel mani the past few days and removal really messed up my cuticles and skin.), and they're still too short to even be called nubbins, but this polish took away my sadness over them. In fact, I couldn't stop staring at my nails! Yay! I wore Chloe on her own for 2 days, and then I added some glittery red lightning bolt tips since I didn't want to take this off, but needed a little change. But that's for another post. Let's focus on Chloe!

Details:
1 coat Julep Nail Therapy
1 coat Orly Bonder
2 coats Julep Chloe
1 coat Seche Vite

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!  If you love vampies/glitter, you NEED this polish!

Formula:
As with 99% of my Julep polishes, this baby was flawless. Perfect consistency, perfect opacity, perfectly even disbursement of glitter. I have absolutely no complaints here. I love Julep's polishes. I really need to wear mine more often. I just love them so much that I tend to save them for special occasions.

Application:
Again, zero complaints. Chloe glides onto the nail like butter. The polish stayed right where I put it with no streaking, bubbling, dragging or balding (impressive for a glitter jelly!). I did do some cleanup, but that's because my OCD insists that I try to make my lines as clean and uniform as possible. However, I did not NEED cleanup at all. I'm used to at least a little mess or a little dribble here and there, but this baby was flawless.

I can't say enough about Julep Chloe. I'm one of those polish addicts that just loves Julep. I do get the Maven boxes (I'm an "It Girl"), but I also purchase them outside of those. This is one that I picked up by itself, along with Alfre and Boris and Nicole, and a bottle of Nail Therapy (that stuff rocks!). I still need to wear both of those polishes! In fact, I think I will start wearing my Juleps starting now. I'm trying to show you all the Color Shows, but I think I'll alternate with Julep since Chloe reminded me of why I love Julep in the first place.

I hope you're all having a great day and have a fabulous weekend! Thanks for stopping by, and as always....Happy Polishing!
