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.

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…
You may have read my tweet on Twitter that Shopper’s Drug Mart was having a nail art contest on their site (ended on 12th) called “Nail the Look”. They have four video looks with color suggestions and we, the viewer, have to “nail” them — love the double pun. I did the first look last…
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 last year my nail situation has been dire. I have been pick, pick, picking at them and the cuticles so much that I am embarrassed to show my fingers in public let alone online in a photo. Nope, not showing you. You’ll have to take my word for it. Last week I decided…
