Review of Julep's "Jane"

What I hate more than anything is when you want to love a product, but you just can't. That's what's happening to me with "Jane" by Julep. I was so excited to try my first rose gold polish, but I'm finding myself severely disappointed. Sophia Bush, whose style I adore, has been rocking quite a few rose gold accessories. Because of this, I thought she'd love this, but now I'm second guessing that.

In my personal opinion, despite the gorgeous accents in the polish, it appears to be more of a copper gold rather than rose gold.

There are just so many thoughts that I have about this polish. Attempting to cut everything down could be difficult, but I'm still going to attempt it.

Jane Park, who is the founder of Julep, finally put her name on something and because she liked it so much, I thought I would have liked it as well. At first, it seemed like it was going to apply beautifully. Again, another disappointment. Unlike most glitter polishes (which I love) it applied very roughly. It refused to coat all of my nail which is why there are some missing pieces.

I applied two coats which I thought would have been could enough. Perhaps applying three coats would have got it to hold better. It was really rough, which I hated. I ran my finger across the polish and I was so worried it was going to flake off. My top coat, which is their Freedom Top Coat, helped make it smoother which I'm really thankful for.

For me, the best part was seeing the various colors under a better light like in the photo above. The rose glitter, if it were more concentrated, could have some real potential. It almost seems like the gold overpowered the color and because of that made it reflect more like copper.

With any luck, this color will grow on me, but unfortunately, I can't say I really see that happening and that's really upsetting.

For those of you who have tried this color, what are your thoughts? Love it or leave it?
