Julep Nail Growth Revitalizing System

For the past few years, I've ignored the whole New Year's resolution thing.  However, this year, i was determined to set a few for myself simply because i felt a tremendous need for a fresh start of sorts.  One is to take better care of my body by detoxing which i will chat with you about at a later date.  The other is to take better care of my nails and cuticles.  You see, as a mommy of twins, I'm constantly washing my hands or washing somebody's hands, which can take a toll on your hands, particularly in the heart of winter!  I don't have time for regular manicures so i often find myself painting my nails after the girls' have gone to sleep.  By then, I'm usually exhausted and ready to just polish and be done!

As part of my New Year's resolution, I've turned to the experts for some help!  Julep's Nail Growth Revitalizing System is the perfect answer to my resolution needs!  I keep this set on my nightstand and have committed to using it every night.  I've definitely noticed a difference in my nails.  They're growing fast and my nails feel stronger then ever.  This two-step system has cutting-edge peptides that stimulate keratin genes and cell proliferation to boost the growth of stronger nails.  The Nail Therapy strengthens and nourishes the nails with Vitamin E.  So now I'm bidding farewell to my weak and often neglected nails/cuticles and saying hello to a fresh new start!  Cheers to New Year's Resolutions and happy nails!

So lets chat!  What are your go-to nail treatments?  Have you tried Julep's Nail Growth Revitalizing System?   What are your thoughts?

Thank you SO MUCH for reading!  XOXO Carla - FMM

Julep - Classic... With a Twist!

For many years, I've considered myself to be classic with a twist.  This is why I'm a huge fan of stores like J.Crew that embody what my personal style is all about!  You'll find wonderful classic pieces with interesting color combinations and stand out accessories that give your otherwise outfit, well... a twist!  Last Spring, i discovered Julep!  In doing so, i was asked to take a profile quiz to determine what kind of "maven" i was.  Well, naturally i knew that i was Fashion Maven Mommy... but we need more clarity when it came to nail polish colors! So, i carefully selected all my favorite celebrity dos, accessories, looks, etc... and what do you know?  Even Julep knew that i am a 'classic with a twist' maven!  You'd think we've known each other for years right?  Well, I've been a loyal maven ever since and have loved all of my wonderful monthly selections! 

So i thought it'd be fun to highlight three colors that totally embody the "classic with a twist" look i love so much! 

Lets begin with Olivia... i fell instantly in love with this color not only for it's name (one of my twin girls is named Olivia), but because of the rich chocolate hue.  I mean, what girl doesn't love chocolate right? 

 



The next color, a rich plum, is called Gayle.  I've become a huge fan of deep aubergine hues and have been rocking them often this Fall. 

Doesn't it look gorgeous against this coffee cozy my mommy made for me?

 

 

The third color Catherine, is the epitome of classic... red that is!  Every maven needs a great red polish and this one does not disappoint!  Pair it with a great animal print or metallic for  a fun twist!

So these are my go to classic with a twist nail colors.  What are your go to colors?  Are you a Julep Maven yet?  If so, what kind of Maven are you?  If not, then stop reading and go sign up!!!!
