Yes..I'm a Maven... A Julep Maven

Over the past two months I got two Julep maven packages and I'm happy to say... I love it! I've never joined a monthly program before but i've used Julep polishes before in my Pink Sundae Mani. My co-worker Jennifer bought me some Julep polishes to try when she went to Seattle and I really liked their polishes so I didn't hesitate to sign up to be a Maven.


So..what is the maven program? According to Julep for 19.99$ a month you get..

Being a Maven, gives you exclusive access to COLOR! You get it first, and YOU decide how often you want to receive your beauty editor Sneak Peek Box
You receive over $40 worth of trendsetting polish colors and cutting-edge treatment products each month customized in a gift-able Sneak Peek Box
Each Sneak Peek Box features new, never before released colors and treatments FIRST to you, before anyone else
Your box also includes hits and cult favorites - the products we like to keep on the top of editors' minds

20% off all julep.com purchases
FREE shipping on ALL your purchases
Each box also comes with a surprise and delight element- something to look forward to!
Receive additional membership perks throughout the year



 To join all you have to do is take a simple style quiz to determine what colors would match you most and then Julep personalizes boxes for you each month. My result was "Classic with a Twist"

Without further ado..here's what I received in the past two months...

Each box looks like this and inside is the bag with a pretty bow tied on (the first picture)...

Inside the intro box I got there was a really nice personalized letter welcoming me to the maven program..I really liked this small touch.

The two polishes I recieved in my first box was Alfre..a really nice pearlescent lavender color (a fall color thats just released!!) and Carrie which is a nice creamy pink.

Also I recieved a base coat..



Theres also a glycolic hand scrub ( I didn't try this one yet but I've heard great reviews on it...) and 2 small samples as well.. one of the scrub and one of a SPF30 hand cream.

My Septemberbox came in just today :)

Look at what I got :) I was so happy/surprised!

I got a glass nail file for being one of the first mavens~ I thought that was a nice gesture...

This month's box included a cuticle oil..which smells great btw...it has a woodsy nutty smell...i like! and its very convenient...its a rollerball :)


The polish that I got this month is Toni which looks like a distant relative of Alfre..it's a creamy brownish purplish color..

Lastly in this month's box was the SPF 30 hand cream which I can' wait to try...

This is one coat of the three polishes I recieved so far... Alfre on top, Carrie in the middle, and Toni on the bottom



Here's two coats of each color L-R Alfre, Carrie, toni








If you're interested in being a maven feel free to click on my referral link here: http://www.julep.com/AP.aspx?ID=520&EID=14695815

as part of the Julep Maven program you can get a referral code as well...and if someone becomes a maven by clicking your link you get $15 credit from Julep. There has been problems with the referral program previously but it should be all sorted out now... in my experience Julep had great customer service.. Living here in Hawaii, mail takes a looong time and after my first box took a while I email customer service and they were very friendly and fast with letting me know what was going on. I figured out that since I live on a rock in the middle of the sea my box usually comes in a week after the expected delivery date on the tracking they send me...

Hope you guys like this program and try it out as well!!
