Current Polish - Sinful Colors and Nail Rock


I'm wearing two coats of Sinful Colors Whipped with Nail Rock as an accent. I'm not sure what the name of the Nail Rock color is but it reminds me of Dorothy's Slippers from the Wizard of Oz. I picked both of these up at Walmart on clearance (yay!) 

I bought Whipped thinking I was just buying black polish but to my delight I found that it is a matte finish. The finish is perfect but it did shrink away from my free edge and am already noticing some wear on the edges, and it's only about an hour old!

Nail Rock...what can I say, I now obsessed with this polish. I really wasn't expecting much but it is gorgeous and was so easy!!!

Julep Ta Da! Quick Dry Drops

Juleps website claims:  Reduces polish dry time Nourishes nails and cuticles with botanical oils and vitamin E Scented with lavender and ylang ylang I really can't vouch for this product reducing drying time. I have yet to try a quick dry product that actually does. I do however love the herbal scent of this product as well as the fact that the product helps to moisturize the cuticle. This is especially important for me since my cuticles tend to be very dry after I polish. Because I don't use this product to dry my nails I have actually banished it to my desk at work and use it throughout the day to keep my cuticles healthy.

Julep Mighty Nail & Cuticle Serum

For the first time I am truly disappointed by a Julep product. After years of having short, brittle, paper thin nails I decided to do everything possible to grow my nails and improve their health. I purchased Julep's Mighty Nail and Cuticle Serum back in January and have used it religiously every day, twice a day as instructed. Today I finally ran out, took one look at my nails and realized...that was totally not worth it. My nails are no longer, healthier, stronger than when I started.  When I purchased the product I was expecting either a think cuticle cream or cuticle oil. In reality the product is very thin. This does help the product to soak in very quickly and does not leave behind any residue but doesn't seem to do much.  Living in "The Mile High City" we deal with very, very dry air so I'm chalking this product failure up to just needing something with more moisturizers. 

Orly Cuticle Oil

I purchased Orly's Cuticle Oil on Amazon thinking that I was getting the full sized bottle. I received the package last night and was a bit disappointed to find that what I purchased was a 1 oz. bottle of Orly Smart Gels Cuticle Oil. Luckily I only spent $5 for it and I actually really like this oil! This oil is very think, almost like a gel but absorbs wonderfully. My favorite part is that it has a fruity scent (Watermelon?) which is much more pleasant than the lavender scented Julep Cuticle oil I have been using. The downside...this is yet another oil that doesn't provide enough moisture to keep my cuticles soft and looking healthy. Living in Colorado has really done a number on my skin and I am finding that I need products that not only moisturize but hold the moisture in.
