Nail Polish in November

I've been going gradient crazy here lately.
Water marbling has finally taken the back burner.
A while ago, I shared my first gradient with you guys.
I think I've mastered it now.
I'll let you guys decide.

A little fall inspired gradient:

This is Julep's Dakota and Stefani.  I don't think I ever did a post about them.

• Dakota: Rose gold metallic chrome.
• Stefani:  Gold flecked grey metallic.

A little winter inspired gradient:

This one was done with Kylie and Lisa.

Both of these lead me to even neater business:

As always, I'm super excited about my monthly Maven Box arrival!

This month, however was a bit of an adventure.

Julep launched a new site recently and I was unable to even preview my box.

This also meant I was unable to choose my box.  =(

By default, I received the American Beauty box.

I'm not disappointed, but I do already have colors kind of similar to these:

• Amber: Golden bronze suede.
• Brit: Graphite silver suede.

I feel like Julep has been sending me quite a few grays lately.

So basically keep your eyes peeled for an upcoming giveaway ;)

My box also came with this grapefruit body frosting.

I don't like that they called it frosting.

It's totally the consistency of frosting, but it's really an awesome nourishing body butter.

It smells so good and feels UHHHHmazing!

I also received a few packs of one time use polish remover pads.

Handy, indeed!

I believe if you hurry, you can still get your first box for just a penny by using the code COLOR2012.

That's how I tried out the Maven Program and I can't say I regret it in the least.
