My Julep Collection with Swatches

Now for those of you who ARE julep mavens, or who are just interested in the colours, here are some swatches of their colours. They retail for 14.00 each and if you are a maven member you get 20% off everything and free shipping anywhere in Canada or in the United States.
1. lucy - described as a modern, dark burgundy. Elegance and excitement
2. demi - described as an elegant burgundy, like a fine wine. Transcends time and trends. So sexy on all ages.
3. catherine - described as THE classic, go-to red. Perfect for date night. Known to enhance the appearance of busty-ness. Wear with loose, sexy waves
4. helena - described as an ultra-saturated fuchsia. Looks great on all skin tones. A favorite of Seattle Magazine's beauty editors
5. gloria - described as a modern, coral rose. Transports you to the tropics
6. alicia - described as a sunny salmon, perfect for beach pedicures and fresh, modern manicures
7. jennifer - described as a beautiful, sheer polish with just a hint of pink. Effortless elegance. A manicure favorite in our parlors and a must-have for every woman, from brides to working girls. One coat does the trick when rushed for time
8. whitney - described as a mushroom grey-beige. The perfect neutral
9. anette - described as a subtle, dove grey. Ultra-chic as a manicure
10. dendrie - described as a modern, dove grey
11. alfre - described as a royal metropolitan purple with hint of shimmer
12. anne - described as an ultra-saturated violet. A tribute to one of our beautiful celebrity guests! Eye-catching on a pedicure and head-turning on a manicure--especially if your wardrobe is heavy on blacks and neutrals.
13. maggie - described as a frosty amethyst. Gemstone in a bottle. An alternative to red for the red carpet and date nights
14. jamie - described as an ultra-saturated, dark turquoise. Opulent jewel tone adds elegance to your manicure and pedicure
15. amy - described as a smoky turquoise

With the exception of alfre, lucy and jennifer these are all one coat. The other three are two coats. While I am thoroughly unimpressed with Julep service and organization, the polishes really are AMAZING and great quality.
