Review: Julep One-Step Polish Remover Pads

Two days ago I received my November Mace box. This month it came with 3 remover pads, a  matte top coat, Nora, and Hallie. I will have swatches later in the week but I though I would start with the polish remover first.

One-Step Polish Remover Pad
I opened the envelope, reached in to pull out the pad, and it took some of my polish of already.
After using the pad on all ten nails. Please excuse how gross my nails look :P


Overall this product worked well but you have to work quickly because the minute the pad makes contact with the air it starts to dry out. I used this on nail that had glitter and it took off easily. I don't know if I would purchase this myself but it was nice to try it. I found that it didn't dry out my skin as much as traditional remover which is always a perk.

China Glaze Haul


Oreo
Hey girls and guys! The reason I haven't posted in a while was because school had started again and then my pet guinea pig, Oreo, died. I know a guinea pig doesn't sound like a big deal but Oreo was like a dog to me. He would follow me around the house and I would say his name or walk by his cage and he would start chirping as if he knew what I was saying. He was a little over four years old when he passed. Guinea pigs live up to 5 years so he lived a long and happy life. So enough of the sob story and lets get to the haul.
