Julep Helena and Lynnderella Boy-Girl Party

Here is another beautiful combination..  I wasn't going to take pictures of  Julep Helena alone, but it's such a pretty blue-toned fuchsia, I had to include some pics of her on her own..

Julep Helena:

I intended on applying the Lynnderella right away, but I wore Helena alone for a day because I love this color so much.  Helena is definitely my favorite Julep!!

Here is Boy-Girl Party over Helena:

This combo is so pretty... I think it's my favorite combo using a Lynnderella.  The formulas with both Helena and Boy-Girl Party were perfect!  I'm impressed with Lynnderella's glitters in this last collection.  They're really smooth and not hard to remove at all.  I only applied one coat of Boy-Girl Party over Helena just so the beautiful fuchsia shinned through.  When you glance at the bottle of Boy-Girl Party, it looks mostly pink and blue, but there is so much more going on in there with red and aqua glitters of all kinds of shapes.  I applied a quick coat of Gelous, then China Glaze Fast Forward topcoat.

Have a great weekend, Everyone.. and don't forget to enter my 700 Follower Giveaway!!

Skeptical Saturday Mani.. Julep Jodie

Happy Weekend!!  It's time for another Skeptical Saturday Mani... Each week I pick a color I'm not too sure about, swatch it, and give my review... then I'd love to hear what you think. :)

If you know me, you know why I had to have Julep Jodie.  My name is Jodi (of course no one ever spells it the way I do.)  Anyway, my friend, Destany was kind enough to swap me for Julep Jodie.  I'm kinda "skeptical" about this color, so I thought Jodie would make a perfect Skeptical Saturday Mani Post..

Julep must have already discontinued Jodie.  I just went to their website to see how they describe her and she wasn't there anymore :(  Anyway, Jodie is a coppery, dusty pink.  I usually don't go for coppers, but the pink part of Jodie makes me like her just a little bit. ;)  Application with Jodie was easy.  Above  pictures are two coats with no topcoat.

Should I be skeptical of Jodie??  Nah... She's just not a color I wouldn't choose for myself, but I'm glad I have her just for the name..  If I could choose a color to represent "Jodi", I think it would be a deep pink (almost hot pink) cool toned holo! :)  Do you have any polishes that share your namesake?  What do you think about it?  I'm just waiting for Zoya to come out with an amazing JODI!!  ;)
