I have been anxiously awaiting the arrival of the much talked about
+Julep Maven Plie Wand since
Julep announced it in January. If you have not heard of it, it is a new polish application tool that is supposed to help you apply polish better...even with your non-dominant hand!!
Here is what Julep says about it:
Kit includes: Plié Wand, Plié overcap, Precision brush $20
What it is:
An ergonomic nail polishing tool designed to solve common polishing pain points and give you better results. Imagine if you’d spent your whole life writing with a pen cap and then someone finally handed you a full-size pen. That’s what it feels like to polish with the Plié Wand.
What it does:
Long, balanced design improves leverage, comfort, and control
Flexible handle twists and bends so you can get a better grip
Plié overcap fits on any Julep nail polish and attaches to Plié Wand
Precision brush lets you polish closer to your nail

Here's what I think...I absolutely love it!!! I was seriously surprised and shocked at how well it actually worked. I won't lie, when they first announced it, I was skeptical. But the nail polish addict in me would not let me pass up trying it out. Plus, I have problems with my hands and after a long day at work I have difficulty polishing my nails, so I was hoping and praying it would work. I am right-handed, and my right hand is always messier in terms of polish application. But when I used the Plie wand, I polished my right hand perfectly! And I really do mean perfectly...no polish on my skin or anywhere other than on my nails.
I will say that it is a little awkward to hold and get positioned just right in my left hand, but it still worked great. And make sure your nail area is clear, because I was knocking stuff over with the wand. I am not used to polishing with a wand that long.
I definitely recommend the Julep Plie Wand!!!! Julep deserves a huge pat on the back for this product.
If you would like see it in action, check out my demonstration video below applying 2 of the new colors from the May Bombshell box, Laree & Saaya.
