Once again I was a sucker for a Mystery Box. Here is Julep’s Cupid’s Mystery Box:

Morgan ($14): “frosty grape purple shimmer”

Petra ($14):  “cranberry magenta with silver shimmer” (this is my second bottle of this shade)

Maria ($14): “shimmering platinum rose”

Carrie ($14): “classic, cotton candy pink crème” Very pretty, but I’m not into pinks.

Lip Vernis ~ Camellia ($18): This is a very sheer pink. It’s also my first Julep lip color. Again, I’m not into pink. I’m thinking I should have skipped this box. I should have know a valentine box would be “Pink” 🙂

I paid for this box on my own and all opinions are 100% mine.

This month’s Julep Maven theme is:  Get On The A List With Our Glamour Collection. My collection is American Beauty.

Oxygen Nail Treatment: This is a tinted nail treatment that allows nails to “breathe” while being strengthened.

Freedom Polymer Top Coat: This top coat promises gel-like performance. It cures in 5 minutes.

Eye lash curler.

These limited edition nail polish shades are inspired by Award winning actresses!

Joan (Crawford) ~ raspberry plum with a rose gold shimmer

Sally (Field) ~ antique ivory crème

ADD ON: Jane ~ Full-coverage rose gold multi-dimensional glitter. I wish I could take a picture decent enough to show how absolutely beautiful this shade is!

Another little extra was two chocolate hearts. How cute is that?!

Something new.. each of Julep’s limited edition shades are now marked with vintage numbers on the bottom of the bottle.  It tells you what collection it came from and when.

February Julep Maven Selection Time!

This month’s Julep Maven theme is inspired by Hollywood Glamour – perfect timing with Oscar season! Here’s a close up of the swatches:

~~~~The window to select or skip your box is from Jan 20th-24th. 

What Julep Maven box did you select this month? Any upgrades or Add-Ons?

HAPPY NEW YEAR! I hope everyone’s New Year has started out fabulous. Here is this months quote from the card.

“Laugher is an instant vacation” ~ Milton Berle

This months theme is Escape & Unwind. It’s the Neons and Nudes Resort Collection. I almost skipped this month because I’m not into neon or nude shades. I love purple though and couldn’t resist!

Once again I opted out of my collection. I don’t even remember what it is anymore. I’m thankful that Julep is flexible and gives you a choice.

Here is January Bombshell:

BETTE: Electric neon purple creme. It’s lighter that the picture, but if you put enough coats on it’s pretty close.

AVA: Ballet slipper pink frost. It’s really pretty, but does not suite my Latina skin tone (in my opinion), so it’s going to a friend.

Extras!

I love the hand and cuticle stick! It’s formula is spot on; not too greasy yet super moisturizing! The quick-absorbing formula is made with shea butter and peptides, but no parabens or sulfates. I also love it’s compact size that makes it possible to just in my purse or work bag. It’s non-leaky as well.

The Twistbands are not new to me. (Not pictured. I gave them away before I took pictures.) I’ve received them in two other sample boxes. They are a cute and fabulous idea, but I have SUPER thick hair, they are too small.

The Swatch Me Stickers seem like they’d be messy. I’m not sure if I’m going to try them out.

Julep Maven (if you don’t know) is a fabulous subscription program. The salon is located in Seattle, WA. It is $19.99 a month, and you receive 2 nail colors and 1 product. At least a $40 value. I have built up quite a nail collection thanks to Julep.
