Of course the name Billie Jean will forever bring up the sounds of Michael Jackson singing about himself being the one and the kid not being his son but this Julep nail color is definitely “the one”.
I love it. It went on beautifully with two coats and I am really digging the matte look for this one. As you can hear I was pretty excited when I made this mini video the other day (the photo colors are truer than the video color):
Anyway, if you follow me on Twitter/Instagram/Facebook then you probably know I decided to paint the kitchen wall Friday and that involved a lot of taping and well, paint. The polish did not chip but it did wear off on the tips from where the tape stuck and of course I had grey wall paint on a few nails. Last night I added another coat of Billie Jean and just for kicks I added Jordon to the tips for a little sparkle which just makes the whole Micheal Jackson analogy even more perfect no?
I think the sparkle looks great with the matte. This is the super easiest nail art, even easier than dots.
The Billie Jean pink really seems to suit my skin tone too. This one definitely moves to my top coveted favorites.

When I saw this video I knew I had to share it with you. It is so bloody easy! All you need is two complimentary colors of nail polish and a little bit of saran wrap! You apply one coat of the first color and let it dry. You apply one coat of the second…
Every since Sarah Conley from Style It posted in her Instagram and blog post about Jin Soon’s Blue Iris nail polish I have been coveting it from afar. After a few weeks I went to the Jin Soon website with every intention of buying the polish, I had it in the cart and it was…
Today is the 50th Anniversary of the Doctor Who series. I remember fondly watching with my Aunt Ida and Uncle John (he wasn’t a real uncle, just a tenant — but still kind of funny because I loved him more than my real Uncle John, anyhooo…). Doctor Who was in reruns a few times over…
I do not get particularly excited about neutral colors so when my Julep’s Lois arrived in my Mystery Box I put it aside as a, “someday I will get around to it” nail polish. Well it happened last week and I am really glad it did. I am surprised how much I liked this pale…
For the longest time I was using Revlon’s basecoat but then someone said I had to try Zoya’s basecoat so I picked up a bottle. I am quite fond of it. It is a bit watery and spreads on in a thin coat. I found myself just wearing it alone a lot over the last…
