I've had these swatches of Julep Daisy for ages so I thought I would pop them up now. Obviously I cannot get Julep easily in Ireland but I did manage to win 2 in a giveaway last year. I didn't know you could buy them separately but apparently you can. Now whether or not I think they are worth the price is up for debate.

Julep Daisy is very sheer polish.which is fairly typical with yellow nail polishes. Daisy seems to be one of the worst yellow polishes I have tried so far unfortunately. In the bottle it is a gorgeous sunflower yellow but on the nail it looks like pus. Yup that's the best word I could find to describe it. That also sums up the formula quite nicely too. This is 3 coats and you can still see the nail . Dry time was just as bad. It took a while to dry so you'd need to layer this over a white or another yellow polish. Kind of defeats the point :P

From this alone I would not recommend Julep. The polish is not great at all and the formula only leads to frustration. In the bottle Daisy is gorgeous but on the nail it just looks dirty. Very disappointing.

I have to agree with you on that color. ^_^; Although, now that I think about it, I have never had a good experience with yellow nail polish. The whole process of applying frustrates me so much and painting my nails shouldn't be a stressful event. Now I'm just put off buying yellow nail polish in general .
ReplyDeleteSame! It drives me mental. You wouldn't mind but yellow is such a gorgeous colour.
DeleteEw!! Ew ew ew ew ew! I honestly think your top photo looks especially gorgeous and I love the idea of a yellow jelly but THE P WORD. D: I've got nothing else, lol.
ReplyDeletehahaha sorry but that's exactly what it reminded me of! :P x
DeleteHeh, that really is an unfortunate shade of yellow..
ReplyDeleteha! it is indeed! x
DeleteOh dear, looks a little witchy or something, like you've been smoking a lot!! Definitely not Daisy like, our bunny is called Daisy so she'd be offended by this!!:)
ReplyDeleteIt really does look like smokers nails :O Good point! Awh poor bunny :( I'm 100% sure Daisy the bunny is far better :P x
DeleteIt's a shame about the formula, but I have to say, your VNL kind of makes it look like you've created a fancy gradient ;) x
ReplyDeleteAwh thanks! Jeez I wish I could do a flawless gradient like that :P xx
DeleteOh dear - will be steering clear of this one, so!
ReplyDeleteI think you're better off to be honest :P x
DeleteOh god, you had to say pus!!!!!!!!!! It looks like gone-off watery mustard to me!! Awful colour. You could keep it for Halloween ;-)x
ReplyDeletehaha it's all I could think of! Oooh actually that's a good idea. You are a wise one miss Sharon ;) x
