I'll only be reviewing the nail polish from the June 2016 collection and not my added polishes!

And here are some added bonuses:

So firstly we got some Necco sweets, I really didn't like these...they tasted a tad strange! Had two and threw the rest away, maybe it's an acquired taste. But definately not for me and I would rate 1/10.
Secondly we also got some chevron nail stencils. Not bad, enough to do your entire hands and who doesn't like chevron nails eh! I would give these 6/10

Up first we have Naveena - Wonder Maven. I loved this colour when I saw the sneak preview and I still love it now. Even though the swatch was only one coat, it's definitely a beautiful colour! I'd give this a 8 / 10

Next we have Luella - colour of the Year 2016. This is a lovely baby pink shade, perfect for weddings! I wasn't too keen on this colour when I first saw the preview, but then as I swatch it..I immediately fell in love with it. It's a perfect shade for those lazy nude days. I'd give this a 9 / 10.

Up next is Lindsey - Boho Glam. This is another pink shade for this collection, but leaning more towards coral colour. Again, I'm pretty shocked with the colour...very nice for the summer! And these dry super quick too! I'd give this 9/ 10

Up next we have Lorraine - Classic With a Twist. This colour was okay, it's described as a mulberry colour and I agree. It's a shimmer finished which is nice. I think I'm less impressed with this because of the two pinks before hand. I'd give this a 6 / 10.

Next we have Matilda - Colour of The Year 2o16. This was one of the three colours that I was really looking forward too and sadly this colour I was slightly disappointed with. The preview showed a nice pastel shade of blue, and this is close enough...but for me it's missing that slight pastel finish. It's still nice but not what I thought it would be. 5.5 / 10.

Next we have Alaina - Classic With a Twist. This was another shade I was looking forward too, a really nice mushroom nude colour. Finding the perfect nude is difficult for me...how about you guys? I was super excited to see this and I'm impressed that it matched that mushroom nude shade...but it's not my ideal perfect nude shade. This colour is very creamy and is great for weddings as well. I'd give this a 8.5 / 10.

Finally the last shade in the collection, Adrian - Boho Glam. This was the one shade that completely grabbed my attention and my goodness this colour is gorgeous! This is such a creamy yellow shade, perfect for summer and the pool! I love how this shade is not in your face and it's a calm yellow tone! 10 / 10.
I did get some added bonus, which I will write another review with my other Julep polishes.
So did you like your Julep 2016 box?
