Breaking away from the reds today! :) Julep Helena is one intense purple! She sort of borders on neon. She's very pretty, and a lot brighter than I would normally wear. I got a lot of shocked looks when I wore Helena - people weren't used to seeing me in such a bright, shocking color hahahah My main motivation for owning this color is that my favorite band, My Chemical Romance, has a song called Helena.

**DISCLAIMER**  I was not paid for this review by anyone. I either purchased these polishes myself or were given gifts as friends because I could not find the particular shade I wanted myself.  I am not a professional nail tech, nor do I want to be. I'm just someone who enjoys polishing my own nails :)
