May Julep Review
I have been dying to write about the May Julep Box. I LOVE Julep! Their themes and extras are always amazing and I was so psyched to get my Jazz 20's themed box especially with my adorable lipsticks! Ok, time to dive in!Last day to enter this Giveaway!
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.
The box- with a few nice details!
Info cards and such. I'm loving the quotes thing they have been doing all year. The theme is "Set the Stage."
The goods! Literally tied up in a bow!
Julep Hair Pins: This was the surprise extra in May's box and I love them! Super cute and very feminine. It totally evokes a gentler age too. I love little hair accessories so this is right up my alley. I've gotten some like these from ModCloth and such but they always seem to be hearts that are upside-down when I put them in so I super love these roses. These would be pretty in a messy up-do with these holding up the back.
Price: ~$5
Paris Jazz Trio: I know, I know, it's a million pictures! I was just sooo excited. 1) I LOVE the packaging- old timey cigarette holder-ish. 2) The packaging of the tubes are gorgeous too! 3) These are sooo much bigger than I expected! I thought these would be tiny, tiny sample tubes but these are legit! 4) These colors are sooo pretty! I like the pink but the reds are super great and I don't have a ton of reds so these are excellent additions. Have I said how much I love these little things?? Price: $28
Zora & Myrtle: I should have said it before but I ended up choosing Classic with a Twist this month. Both lipstick trios looked great but I really wanted the Paris one and these nail polish colors were so pretty. I'll post a pic later but I'm wearing Myrtle now with Julep's Freedom Top Coat along with a black/gold nail strip that is awesome. Not gonna lie, I'm loving my nails right now! Price: $28
Verdict: Again, I was having too much fun taking pics of this awesome box. The products this month were just so much fun!! This $20 box turns out to be valued at $61! As always, the two polishes alone pay for the box but it's always an added bonus to get a super high valued box! I feel like I cleaned up, especially since I love the products! If you missed out on this month's box you can head over to Julep and pick up the New York lipstick trio, although unfortunately the Paris one is sold out right now. And if you want to give Julep a try, use one of the codes above and try a box that only costs shipping!!
