Valentine's Day Mani with my January Julep Maven Box - Madison and Grace Swatches

Happy Valentine's Day!

This is the simple, easy mani I am rockin' for Valentine's Day!  I decided to break into my January Julep Maven Box for this look and then I added 1 coat of OPI Nothin' Mousie Bout It from the Minnie Mouse Collection to my ring finger.  Keep reading if you want to see everything I got in my January Julep Maven Box :)

January was all about Neons and Nudes and I chose the Classic with a Twist Box this month.

These are the free extras included for the month.  The neon hair ties are fun and I can always use more hair ties. But, I was really excited about the Swatch Me stickers! All of the new bottles of polish come with these stickers on the tops of the lids.  So, I can use these stickers on the polishes I have already.  It is a great idea.  I store my polishes vertically and now I can see the color I want quickly.

All of the Maven selections (aside from The It Girl) came with a Hand and Cuticle Stick.  The Classic With A Twist came with Madison and Grace.

Julep says...

Madison - Electric Neon Hot Pink Creme

Grace - Classic 'go-to' Light Pink Sheer

The Hand and Cuticle Stick is really nice.  It is very soft and melts right into my skin.  It smells good too, although I can't quite put my finger on the scent.  The only thing I don't like is the packaging.  It is a lot of packaging for the product which seems to be in the top 1/3 of the tube.

I used 3 coats of each polish with no top coat so you can see the finish.  You can see Madison is not quite matte, kind of a vinyl looking finish.  Madison is looking just a bit more red here than in does irl. It is an interesting color that dances the line between red/orange/coral/pink depending on the lighting.  I really like it.  It is going to be amazing for the summer months! I can't wait for the warm weather!  

Grace is a sheer light pink, perfect for french manis or jelly sandwiches.  It is not a color I would wear alone to I decided to jazz it up a bit by adding 1 coat of OPI Nothin' Mousie Bout It from the Minnie Mouse Collection.  It is perfect for Valentine's Day!
