The other day I posted the contents of my April 2013 Julep Maven box and this was one of the nail polish shades I received. Isn’t it awesome! I love the bright sunshine lemon yellow color. I’ve gotten so many compliments on this one in just a couple days of wearing it.
Julep Abbie is a cream shade with no shimmer or sparkle. The formula on this one was a bit thick and goopy but I just took my time applying it. I applied two thicks coats and it evened out nicely.

After many disappointing months with Birchbox, I decided to go back to the My Glam bag which is now Ipsy. It had been almost a year since I got my last My Glam bag but I’d been following their progress and noticed that they were sending out much better bags since I was last subscribed. So I cancelled Birchbox and decided to give Ipsy another try.
I have to say that the April 2013 Ipsy bag was impressive. For the $10 subscription price, everyone received 3 full sized products and one deluxe size sample. The three full sized products were all shades of pink which I love!

Let’s take a quick look at the Urban Decay Wasteland Glide-On Shadow Pencil ($20). Wasteland is a deep, dark brown color with a slight golden shimmer.
The formula for this shade is a bit on the dry side and isn’t very creamy for a shadow pencil. It does however make is easier to use it as an eyeliner.
