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 think of summery nails the first thing to pop into my mind is pale hues of blue, yellow, green, and of course pink. I came across this great shade from L’Oreal called Butterfly Kisses — even the name is beautiful. I love the pale pink with almost a hint of lavender in it….
One of my favorite nail polish brands is O.P.I. One of my favorite animated movies… Shrek. Put them both together and you have O.P.I.’s color take on the latest installment in the Shrek animation — Shrek Forever After. He’s a sneak peak if you haven’t seen it yet (best part is near the end): Back…
Have you seen Oz the Great and Powerful yet? If you want to channel your inner Glinda then try giving CreativeNailArt’s Glinda nails a try. It looks a little more complicated with the addition of the bedazzle but you could always skip that part. My favorite part is actually the graduating sparkle on the tips….
I ordered some clear empty nail polish bottles on Etsy so I could make a glue base coat. If you haven’t already heard what that is, basically it’s mixing glue with water and applying it like a base coat. It was initially used underneath difficult to remove glitter nail polishes so they can be peeled…
I was really excited to receive Belvada Nail Polish Remover Pads in one of my Top Box subscription beauty boxes. It was a purse size sampler with 28 pads, lemon scented, and acetone free. The ingredients are listed as: propylene carbonate, parfum, propylene glycol. The saturated pads are quite thin which I find awkward to…
The past few weeks I have been playing with Halloween Nail Art courtesy of a great how-to video on YouTube that I have been watching over and over. So far, I have completed three of the five designs created by the fabulous Miss Jen. I don’t think I will get the other two done before…
