May Julep Maven Box Selection

It's Julep selection time again!! The theme this month is "Set the Stage" and woah, I am loving the lipsticks included this month! Let's check out the boxes!




Julep:
Type: Nail Box
Cost: $19.99/month includes shipping
What is it?: Becoming a Julep Maven gives you access to all their products for 20% off as well as being part of their rewards program which earns you FREE boxes and products. To begin, you take a style quiz to determine you Julep Maven Style and your first box will be a welcome box. Each month you are sent the month's theme colors and products in the 4 beauty profiles and have the option to choose your assigned box or any other one available. You also have the option to skip any month- this may be the BEST feature at Julep. Julep also offers add-ons each month for extremely discounted rates as well as random/surprise bags/boxes all the time. Fun fact: Julep's full collection was one of Oprah's favorite things this past year. Use my referral link when you sign up and try your first month for free (plus shipping) using the code FREEBOX or JULEPVIP.

Or buy the whole collection!!!

I was sold on getting one with the New York Jazz Lipstick set but after seeing the swatches and that the Satin Doll one isn't orange, I am leaning towards Classic with a Twist with the Paris lipstick tiro! Who else is getting the May Julep box? I think it is one of my favorite months yet!

  2. Yes, so excited about the lipsticks! I went for Boho Glam (my default) and I added Coco.

  3. This is my second box selection month since joining - I am considering upgrading, but I might try to be good and stick with my default of Boho Glam as well...I just love the whole idea of the flapper age and so getting sucked into it all!

  4. I love Millie, Alice and Gabrielle. I hope the lipsticks are good! I upgraded.

    1. I think I may have to buy Millie someday. I'm jealous of your upgrading!

  5. I am normally the Bombshell, but decided to switch to Classic with a Twist this month like you. Love the lipstick trio & the two shades of polish that one comes with!

  6. If I join now, can I still get the May box? They look awesome!

    1. Sadly, no. Although an intro box usually has colors from that month. May's boxes are already closed so you couldn't get it now anyway. I suggest signing up and you can get Maven prices on this month's polishes!

  7. I have been getting the It Girl boxes and I was bummed to see that we were the only group that didn't receive the lipstick trio!

  8. How do you upgrade your box and what does upgrading contain?

    1. Upgrading is another option that it offered each month much like opting for the It Girl box, Boho Glam, etc. The Upgrading means you get the entire collection- that's all the polishes and "other" products (like DD creams). It also costs more.

  9. How do you skip a month? I can't find the option anywhere and the phone number doesn't work
