Julep Maven Box!

Hey! I received my new julep maven box for the month of April!
Can you believe it's April already? I can't!
That means I will be graduating college in a month! :D
Anyway, I thought the colors I received in this box were so beautiful.
They were very spring-y colors.
I got the color Susie - a very pale mint green/blue (think of a robin's egg)
Next, I got the color Mandy - a bright coral pink.
Mandy looks super similar to Essie - Meet Me At Sunset,
but Mandy is more pink and Meet me at Sunset is more red/orange.
I also received a really awesome foot cream called... The Best Pedi Creme Ever! :p
It sure lives up to its name! I tried it twice so far and I can feel my feet getting softer.
I'm an athlete so I struggle to keep my feet soft and smooth so this product really helps!
Finally, I received two toe separaters and five chocolate eggs.
I am honestly so obsessed with Julep Maven boxes.
They theme their boxes around the month which is so adorable
and I always love the little extra's they throw in there.

District 4 - Fishing

Hey! Here is yet another Hunger Games inspired mani.
Today's manicure is based on District 4 - Fishing.
I get most of my inspiration from the District posters if you were wondering.
Today I used quite a few colors including:
Essie: Mezmerised (base)
OPI: Who the Shrek are you? (seaweed)
Essie: Set in Stones (glitter)
Julep: Meryl (anchor)
OPI: Bubble Bath (fishies)
:)

District 3: Technology

Hi again!
Here is my take on District 3 from The Hunger Games.
Since District 3 is technology I put a power button, a technology board, a techy looking number 3, and a gear (from inside the factory).
The colors I used are: My Private Jet by OPI for a base on pointer, middle, and ring fingers and also as the gear on the pinky. What's With The Cattitude by OPI for the power button and pinky base. Who The Shrek Are You by OPI for the powerboard. Lemon Fizz by China Glaze for the 3. Finally, Mesmerized by Essie for the gear detail.

District 2: Masonry

Day 2 of my Hunger Games adventure.
District 2 is Masonry. I tried to portray that by adding a hammer (terribly drawn, if you ask me) and a brick wall (also not so nice :p), but I decided to post it anyway.
For a base I used Julep Meryl
(by the way you can get julep for 1 cent this month:
http://julep.com/?r=19060511 and enter the code SHAREONMARCH at checkout)
On my pointer finger I used OPI Black Shatter
On my middle and ring finger I used a flat black from OPI (unsure of the name)
And on my pinky I used OPI Silver Shatter.

District 1: Luxury

Hi! I'm finally back with a really cool idea that I think some of you will enjoy.
I am going to be doing a manicure with a theme related to each of the districts from...
The Hunger Games!
If you are anything like me, you are dying for the movie to come out and you
absolutely adored the books. I am obessesed with these books.. I read through them in a week!
I used a basic white nail polish from OPI. I'm not sure of the name because it came in a mini kit, but it was the Halloween minis so maybe that helps. On the ring finger I used Nicole by OPI Rainbow in the S-Kylie.
So here it is... District One: Luxury.

Shine On

Today I decided to give myself a litte manicure using my two newest polishes from Julep. I adore these colors and the formulas and I am SUPER excited to get my March box! :]
Can you believe it's March already!? I only have 2 more months (or 68 days) until I graduate college, not that I'm counting or anything :D
So, here are my nails.
The colors are Meryl (grey) and Oscar (gold).
I did a little gold glitter highlight nail for some glitz!
