Julep Boris & Nicole + Nyx Gilded Glitter Topcoat

Happy Thursday! Are you ready for some footballlllll??? I know I'm not, lol. Every year I promise Hubby I'll learn the game but I never do. I'm so silly because I know I can learn the game if I actually put forth effort, or at least I hope I can if a 7 year old can learn the game. I'm not ready for football but I'm ready for more great performances and commercials :)

Tonight I'm sharing the polish from my September Julep box, Boris & Nicole. I was excited to get this polish because it's named after a glamorous Hollywood couple but I was a little disappointed once I seen it in real life. It was not as red as I had hoped but my disappointment was immediately relieved after I applied the polish because it's quite gorgeous. Boris & Nicole is a warm brownish-red with dark golden shimmer that gives it a slight glow. I used 2 coats to get it opaque.


To add a little more glam I added 1 layer of Nyx Gilded Glitter a golden glitter-flakie topcoat. I love the combination.


That's all for tonight. Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the game if you're watching :)

  4. Wow, gorgeous combo!! I wish I had gotten this one in my Maven box!

    I'm with you on the football. My bf has tried to teach me, but then gets frustrated since I should "know this stuff". So I tell him to teach me like he's teaching a 5 year old...lol!! Still after 10 years don't understand football!!

  8. oooh i love this layering.. i'm going to try red and gold more. hmm the only thing i know is tight ends.. "yeah. that tight end is doing a good job..." yes that's what i usually say.. and everyone agrees..and then we eat some party snacks and some football beer...and when everyone starts yelling "go go go" you do it too.
