If You Were a Booger




Julep Leah

This is another polish I got from my first Julep Maven box. Leah is such a pretty, bright green in the bottle, but I'm not sure how I'm liking it on my nails. It's the kind of green that makes me think of aliens, boogers, acid, and Nickelodeon goop!

The formula wasn't terrible, but it's not the best out there. It was quite runny and thin for a creme, so a second coat was needed to make up for my uneven first coat. A subtle shimmer is evident in the bottle, but it doesn't translate onto the nails--my camera picked up on it better than my eyes did! I hate to say it, but I would definitely not shell out the original price of $14 for this polish. It's very pricey, especially considering that it only contains approximately half the amount of your average OPI/Orly polish!

this was in my first Julep box too. Its ok but nothing special - still Im not sure if I have anything else like it. Good for nail art though! I never even knew it had shimmer!

Nickolodeon goo! I loved that show You Can't Say That On Television. I loved when people got slimed. I wonder how many on stage showers they had! =)

Ohmigosh, it's the exact same color as Nick Slime! I'm not sure how I'd feel about that color on my fingers, either... but now I'm feeling nostalgic for Marc Summers and Double Dare!

I like the color in the bottle, but you're right it doesn't look that good on nails. I just don't like green though. I never tried this brand before!

LOL your post titles! Despite the gross pattern in your titles, this shade is lovely on you. It's a very nice alternative to the usual mint greens! (:

Haha I love the title of this post lol. And I agree with you, greens like this can be somewhat tricky to pull off on the nails, but on the toes I think it would be cute. :)

It's odd, but I kinda like this xD I probably wouldn't wear it myself, I'm not such a big fan of green (but that doesn't stop me from getting green np lol)

Haha your description of boogers and aliens is spot on! Regardless of that, it's a really nice green on you! :D
