Julep Ashley

my major goal this week is to get loads of swatching and the bare bones of posts done... i have no idea how long we're going to be on the road from Virginia to California, and i know i won't have time to paint my nails everyday, much less actually blog about it! having posts somewhat pre-done will definitely help alleviate some of my stress... i do love to have a post per day :)

i'm going to take a break from reviewing the Layla Hologram Effect collection and instead go ahead and swatch my May Julep polishes. first up is Ashley, a beautiful warm orange shimmer. i used two thick coats for full opacity, but it did want to bubble... i think three thin coats would probably be best!

one coat Julep Basecoat, two coats Ashley, one coat Seche Vite.

i am trying out Julep Basecoat while i am on my swatching mission, review on that to follow i'm watching Ru  Paul's Drag Race right now... i loveeee Queens! Ria :)
