Julep Maven polishes have recently gotten a lot of raves in the online beauty community lately, due to the launch of their Julep Maven program. The Julep Maven program is like any other beauty subscription program where for $20 a month, you get sent a box with polishes and other treats from Julep.
The latest polish that I received in my Julep Maven Box is the shade in Meryl, which is a very creamy gray colored polish. I have to say that I don't have a color like this in my nail collection, so it's quite nice to have something new.
The Julep polishes have a reputation of being very creamy, opaque, and true to color. I have to agree that the color payoff of this shade is amazing. It is an opaque color and the color is a beautiful gray that isn't a flat gray color. I absolutely love grays and shades like this for transitioning between seasons.
The only negative thing I have to say about the polish itself is the application. Although it is a creamy polish color, it is also a runny polish. So if you have very small or short nail beds, the polish will run all over the place once you apply it if you are not careful.
The wear of the polish is like any other higher end polish. It wears pretty well with a nice top coat over the shade.

hello itsniina: yeah it's a little too much sometimes
I wish Julep polishes weren't so runny because I really like the colors and it applies smooth and without streaks. I recently tried one of their polishes and I'm considering purchasing more, but the runny formula is making me hesitate.

gorgeous color!! Really chic and perfect for this winter :)

love the gray color
Looks like a good shade to sport shame about the application though. Even with the formula being like that I still think it seems good.
