Julep TSV

Katilein — Tue, 15 Aug 2017 13:29:20 GMT

I ordered this kit because it was too good of a deal to pass up. I have bad nails, and need something to help them. In the presentation last night it was never really explained how to use them. I mean can I use the clear therapy under the color treatments? They were too busy talking about the value instead of how they're helping the nails. My cuticles are very torn on most of my fingers, my Derm. said I have dermatitis on my fingers and prescribed a cream to apply. Nails are getting thin but do grow. Doctor also put me on a daily antibiotic to help inflammation around nails. I hope this tsv will help.

They just said you can use under other nail polishes (the clear). They are all nail treatments 2 color and 1 clear. Results in 2 weeks. You can try if you are not happy, return. The oil is for your cuticles. Good luck. I was just reading the description and I find it rather confusing. The clear is a "stronger" product so I am not sure when you wear that unless it is twice a week.

I also purchased the TSV, and watched the online presentation TWICE to try to figure out how to use it. I have used Perfect Formula in the past, and liked the way it looked on my nails, but it did nothing to help my nails grow or get any stronger. Hope this one works

I am tempted. I just wish they would do a better job in explaining what order to use the products. I think it's cuticle oil, clear, and then one of the other colors. I am sort of gun shy because a few years ago I tried a Perfect Nails TSV, and it was awful. If anything it made my nails split and it was not expensive enough to bother with returning. I don't feel like wasting my money again.

I did order the TSV - I need addidtional help with weak, brittle, peeling nails, and because I like the sheer colors that they offered. I watched the presentaation with Amy and the vendor, and they did say that you can use the clear coat under one of the colors. I thought it was pretty clear. I just hope it helps. Went with Auto Delivery, but in case it doesn't seem to be helping I can always cancel. Some of the things coming with the next shipments seemed interesting as well.

Been using the line for awhile now and love it! Dries fact , gives the nails a nice clean look with the American msnicure. I gave long natural nails, always hsve , but with age it was harder to keep them long tne way I lime them . Once I started this line not a problem any longer. I still wear co,or now and then, but with the julep as base coat , I actually just like the pink or ivory nail for most if the time though it looks so pretty and clean.

I think they said "you can use under nail polish". It didn't say specifically under the TSV polishes since they're a treatment. So I wasn't sure. Thank you

I already have the Julep Oxygen Nail Therapy Treatment and use it as my base coat. I apply whatever brand of polish I have (OPI, China Glaze, etc.) over it. It isn't a miracle worker, but my nails do seem to be better. I used Perfect Formula for a while, but it didn't seem to do anything. I did order the TSV since it is a good value. I wish the polishes were a little deeper in color though. I plan to use the TSV polishes over the nail therapy treatment.

I am interested in purchasing the TSV as well. I got the impression that the pink, pearl, and clear colors were all treatment polishes and could be worn alone, or with the clear as a basecoat. I really do like soft colors. I don't wear nail polishes at all, and these would give me the chance to wear a little bit of color on my nails as well as address this irritating breaking, thinning, and chipping I am experiencing.

I got my Julep TSV yesterday and used it for the first time today. My nails instantly look much better. In the video, they must have had several coats of the pink on because their nails looked real pink. I have two coats on which is barely pink. I do like the look though.

My nails instantly look healthier and my cuticles look moist and not dry and cracking. I wrote the date on a piece of paper and put it in the bag with my set and will use this stuff religeously for 2 or 3 weeks. If I keep getting good results I'll keep the set. If I don't, I will send it back.

So far my nails look pretty impressive. It was a good value.

I purchased the TSV and used Be Strong as the base coat then followed with 2 coats of Sheer Pink. It looks very nice and I will decide about keeping it once I see how well it lasts. I have life-long peeling nails and only had good results with OPI's Gel Break Trio. Unfortunately Gel Break has been difficult to find so I thought I would try this.

Does anyone know if the auto-delivery is exactly the same as the first delivery? Sometimes A-Ds have different colors in subsequent deliveries, and Julep does have one or two other "Take a Breather" shades.

Been having trouble with nails not growing. I have been using Julep Oxygen Nail Therapy (which is clear in color) and then applying my polish over it. Bought the TSV and I don't think they made it clear that the light colors (Take A Breather) should be used alone. I put the pink one on yesterday and it just looks clear after two coats. That is not a good look for me. I will probably still keep the TSV since returns are so costly. These light colors on me look nothing like the demos on QVC. Also, they didn't explain that for best results with these two that you should not use a color polish over it. Will cancel my AD.

I highly recommend Sally Hansen Miracle Growth, gold top, gold bottle. This is clear and will be your base coat.

This is correct. It wouldn't make any sense to put the clear under the treatment products. I think they were very careful in their use of the words "nail polish" and "treatments"

@acter I hate it when QVC removes product info on A/D's when the A/D sells out, for this exact reason. You can locate the video, though, and see the presentation with Mary Beth. She said the future shipments will still have the pink treatment in both of them. Instead of the ivory one, the second shipment will have a sheer orchid color and the third will have sheer pearl. Also, the oil is only part of the first kit. The second will have remover pads and the third will have a cuticle cream. All kits will still have the file and the clear. I hope that all makes sense.

Mini update from me...

My kit arrived last week, around Tuesday or Wednesday, but I didn't open it until Thursday late afternoon/early evening. I washed my hands, applied the cuticle oil and massaged it in. Then I waited just a little while and applied one coat of the pink treatment. There was just a tint of color and it had a satiny kind of finish - not overly glossy. Mind you, my nails are practially non-existent and so short you can't see any white at the tips. I also have ridges on the tops and a very bad habit of picking at the dry cuticles, pull them off, and they end up sore. In my experience of trying assorted polishes that are supposed to help nails grow, I've found that the product chips and/or peels within a day or two. In only a few days of using the Julep kit, my cuticles are softening and repairing and I'm seeing a tiny bit of white tips on several of my nails. I'm really impressed by the kit and very pleased that my first application of the treatment is still like new w/o any chipping or peeling. This kit gives me hope.

Thanks. I'm going to buy that today.

Thank you for the information on the contents of subsequent deliveries. Julep was not a bad product but OPI's Gel Break lasted longer for me. I think it needs a top coat. I wanted to know what the remaining deliveries will include and called customer service however no one could tell me. I didn't care for the ivory color so am glad to know I will receive something different.
