Julep Maven, nail polish subscription box!

After a crazy day yesterday I was pleasantly surprised to come home to my Julep Maven intro box! I cannot tell you how excited I was to receive this box. This is one subscription box that is right up my alley. Here is a picture, sorry I had already opened it, but it came adorably wrapped with a cute red ribbon.

I was thrilled by this box. The nail polishes were both lovely. One of them was called Charlotte, it is a beautiful purpley color. They other is called Jennifer, it is a very sheer pinkish color. I love Charlotte, it is very opaque in one coat and is a lovely color. I would have bought this color in a heart beat, I am drawn to anything pink or purple. The other polish I could do without. I am not a fan of extremely sheer polishes, especially one that takes 4 coats to be opaque. I might use it for an accent nail with a glitter topcoat, or under a crackle. I can tell you that I will never wear this polish on it's own though, it's far too much work for very little payoff. However, that has no reflection on the box itself. It isn't their fault I don't care for the polish.

The next item in my box was the Facial for Hands glycolic hand scrub. I really like this product. It is a completely new concept to me. It literally is an exfoliating facial for your hands. I tried it and love the way my hands felt after the first use. I will probably use this every day. The best thing, it's a full size!  I am in LOVE!

The service itself is priced at $19.95 per month. There are several different categories you can choose from that each have different colors and different items in them. I am classified as Classic with a Twist. Not me at all in my opinion but nonetheless the products are cool, and I am very happy. Next month I will probably choose a different category. You can opt out of a box if you aren't interested that month, or have your box sent to a friend as a gift if you want. I recommend any girl who likes nail polish that is looking for one of these sample subscription boxes to check this one out. Especially considering you can try it for as little as a penny! So, here is a link, http://julep.com/?r=19928808. Go check it out, and if you think it's for you, use the code penny during check out and you will only pay one cent to try this service and get a super cool box like mine. Let me know what you think!
