Red Flowers and Golden Glitter

Monica - Dark pink, almost red polish with blueish-purple and silver micro glitters. 
I added no topcoat on this one.  See how it shines under the sun? (What a beautiful day we are having by the way! I wish it's always like this ;)  The texture is a bit grainy because of the glitters, but still very comfortable, not rough.
 Monica really pops.  Julep claims that they made this "chip-resistant."
I was able to put that to the test.  Wearing it for five days now and only have little signs of wear on the tips, no chips (my, that rhymes... lol).  I did do my regular cleaning jobs (yes, I clean a few home for a living ;)  and my own household chores.  Yup, it does have pretty good chip-resistance.  If it matters on the durability factor, I did apply 2 coats of polish over 2 coats of Nail-Envy from OPI as a base.  I bought this bottle from Julep's Savvy Shop for US$2.99.


Next, I have Wendy.  This is from the "Jelly Glaze" family - sheer, tinted polishes from JulepOn the nails I have one coat.  The formula is thick but easy to apply.  This reminds me of the Sheer Tints from OPI.  I wished I had a few more colors of this polish but I did not purchase this until it was available in the Savvy Deals for only US2.99.  This polish is perfect for layering ('pond mani').

I added one coat of Paris for some bling. I purchased Paris as part of a Trio and I paid $14.99 for all three polishes.  Plus, I had a coupon code that got me free products.  Please see more about the haul and more on Paris here >>>


And finally, some flowers on the accent nail using different spring-colors also from Julep.  I used a dotting tool to pick a single Paris glitter and placed it on the center of the flower.  I also used this yellow polish on a glitter gradient before.  Please visit Sally here >>>


And there you have it!  What do you think of this design?  Too glittery perhaps?  Or beautiful?
