December Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

So since December is my birthday month and I was into this month's box I decided to treat myself and use my Jules for a full polish upgrade (ALL THE POLISH) and then a couple add ons of their new Whipped Lip mousses, and a cuticle oil which I love.

October Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

So I was kind of hoping to fall head over heels for the entire October collection because of Halloween, and maybe use my points to get the whole collection, but sadly there was only a few polishes I was smitten with, and when I say smitten - I promise you I mean smitten.

September Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

Today I have this past month's Julep Maven box to show you. I've been looking for a good highlight powder for a while now so I thought I might give Julep's a chance. I was definitely quite happy with this month's box so click for more after the jump.

August Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

Today I have my August maven box to show you guys, I really liked the colours in this months box, not enough to get the whole collection (although I think I thought about it)
Not even one day into swatching and wearing these polishes I had a mishap that caused my ring fingernail to break right off, I didn't even notice it happen until I was like wait something is WRONG.
So just incase you're wondering that's what happened.

June Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

So to be honest I definitely wasn't super stoked on this month's box, lots of Jellies which aren't always my bag, I would rather bright vibrant colours when it comes to months like June, but I don't have a lot of jellies so I figured why not lets grab a couple of those and then throw in a minty colour too for good measure.

May Julep Maven Box

Well it's the end of another month. So today I have the May Julep Maven box to show you.
I wasn't super sold on this whole collection but I managed to pick out two colours I liked and then I added one of the Plush Pout lip crayons since I love them so much.

April Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

Today I have Julep's April maven box to show you guys. I love spring colours! I wanted to love this whole collection and upgrade. However there was a few dupes in the collection so instead I just picked two polishes that stood out, and got the sea salt spray for hair which I've wanted to try for a while. Then added on their new silver holo. Why did I do that? because I'm crazy

March Julep Maven Box

Hey guys

Today I have the March Julep Maven box to show you guys!
There were a lot of jellies and soft springy colours in this month's collection but I decided to go with this trio, along with their new invisible lip liner, Get In Line, which I HATED. It felt waxy and made my lipstick clump.
Anyways for polish swatches click for more after the jump

February Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

Today I have my February Julep box to show you. Initially when this month's window popped up I had intended to skip this months box well somehow that turned into me taking the box AND adding three add-ons. Let me tell you I'm sure happy I did, this month's box was CHOCK full of freebies.

Along with my 6 polishes I ordered I got 2 surprise polishes (one not pictured since I had it already), the special Valentines day polish, and 5 extra bottles of the Valentines day polish to give to friends.

January Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

Today I have my January maven box to show you. This months theme was Chrysalis which means change. There are some changes to the maven program this year, they're going to really start focusing on beauty products as much as polish instead of polish with a side of beauty products. We'll see how this goes.

December Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

So today we wrap up 2014, wow what a year lots of ups and lots of downs. I'm excited for 2015 hopefully we all have a fantastic year ahead of us all.

So I have the last Julep box of the year. I'm torn on this month's collection I found it to be kind of all over the place and not have a really strong personality. Although it's pretty glitzy and ritzy which is always good for December however I would have loved more rich jewel tones opposed to the more metallic colours, but that's just me.

November Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

 

So remember how last month I talked about how long it took for my box to get to me. Well this month was the exact opposite, I usually get my Julep boxes about mid month but this month my box arrived within days of me getting the shipping confirmation. All in all I was super impressed! If Julep is turning over a new leaf with their shipping department then I know a LOT of people will be happy.

 

I loved this month's box such great colours.

October Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

Happy Halloween!! I hope everyone is having a spooky day!

Today I have my October Julep Maven box to show you guys. Honestly I didn't think I was going to get my box this month it just showed up earlier this week WAY later than normal. Hopefully this doesn't become a thing because I'm impatient and all that jazz. This month was full of dark vampy colours, last October I got the full collection but this year I just went with normal box selections.

September Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

 Well it's the end of another month and you guys know what that means WEEEEE another Julep box to show you! This month's box was the real first Fall colour box of the year. Honestly after the fun bright colours we've been seeing for a couple months this box disappointed me even though I love dark and vampy colours.

August Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

I hope you all are enjoying your weekends! I am just now wrapping up my Marvel movie marathon (I had a few interruptions, for instance what was supposed to be a movie date last night with a friend turned into a 6 1/2 hour conversation. Which was awesome)

Today I have my August Julep Maven box to show you guys! So many people had a lot of issues with their boxes this month. Including my best friend who has started up her own blog reviewing subscription boxes which you can check out here) Thankfully however my box was received fully intact.
This month the boxes included a screen cleaner which is awesome, I have a screen protector for my phone so it doesn't work as well but it is still awesome.
Honestly the colours in this box were amazing, I probably should have upgraded.

July Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

We're taking a brief one day hiatus from Digital Nails Week to bring you this post.

I have my July Julep Maven box to show you guys today! This was the first time since it was introduced that I really took advantage of the My Maven swap feature. I wanted to try the Body Milk lotion (I love it! it smells and feels so nice!) so I made sure that was in my box since it would have costed more as an add on. 

I loved this collection, full of bright cremes perfect for July!

June Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

So I really didn't want this to happen, I told myself I would be good. Then it happened. I upgraded my Julep box AGAIN. This month Julep introduced their new My Maven program. All existing Mavens would have the choice to continue with their current subscription program which is you choose which box you want then you can have up to three add-ons. Or upgrade to "My Maven" and pay $25 a month and be able to customize their box, which I actually like because you can swap out a polish you don't want for one you do want. Or you can upgrade to the Maven Luxe box and pay $40 a month and get to choose more products in your box. I upgraded to the My Maven, but after looking at this month's collection I splurged. I blame the fact that this month's collection is whimsical. It's very A Midsummer's Night Dream.

May Julep Maven Box

Hey guys,

So a couple months ago Julep announced their crowdfunded campaign for their new Plie wand which they stated would revolutionize the way you apply polish. You could choose several levels if you wanted to donate each with different rewards or incentives. One of the levels was you could pre-pay for your May Julep box. I figured I was going to wind up getting this wand anyways and would likely get my box so that was the level I chose. At first Julep was going to be changing the caps of all their polishes to make them compatible with the wand. This threw people into a tizzy, the idea of changing the caps or having mismatching caps was not their best idea. However they changed the design and made it compatible with the current caps. Good job Julep.
