Since I am always on the lookout for great nail polish and manicure solutions I was thrilled to be contacted by Julep. Julep is a hand, nail and foot care brand with four boutique nail parlors in the Seattle area, as well as an online boutique.

Julep Nail Vernis Review – Maya & Taylor

Julep sent me the introductory “Classic With a Twist” Maven Box, which included two full size polishes – Maya and Taylor, and the Glow On Age Defying Hand Brightener (I love this lotion!). Since I love nude tones, the color Maya, a shimmery pink pearl, immediately caught my eye. Surprisingly, I found that I preferred Taylor, a deep periwinkle. I’m not particularly sure why, but you can decide for yourself from these pics.

Here is a breakdown of my experience with Julep Nail Vernis.

*While a one-time purchase from the Julep Nail Vernis line results in a more expensive cost per fluid ounce, a Julep Maven membership will reduce the price per ounce considerably and is a great fit for those of us who love the idea of receiving a customized package that includes two new polishes along with other goodies each month.
