Tip Toe Through the Julep!

Hai!  I received my first Julep Maven box last weekend and I've been dying to try my new pretties I received Jodie and Alfre.  I also received the very yummy essential cuticle oil, that has become one of my new favorites!

Julep Maven is a subscription program from Julep that as far as I can tell is an awesome deal!  I've been dying to try Julep, but was holding out for no specific reason really.  So when I read about Julep Maven on a fellow blog (forgive me, I can't remember which one) I decided it was time!  The Maven box is $19.99 a month, which might seem a little steep for some but I got two polishes ($14 ea), cuticle old ($18), and two glitter pots (unknown value).  If my math is right this totals $46 so this seems like an awesome deal to me!  Also as a Maven you get a discount on all products on their website, you can gift your box to someone else any month you like, you can preview what your going to get each month, and you can add up to 3 other items before your box is shipped each month.

My first box arrived rather quickly and was packaged very nicely in a little pink bag tied up with a black bow inside of the box.  I would add pictures if my phone would connect to my laptop properly :-/ 

And so here is Jodie....

At first I wasn't too sure about Julep's style assesment saying I was "classic with a twist", and initially I was overwhelmed by the colors sent to me in my first box.  But look at this in the light....

Jodie is a beautiful gold-ish pink/salmon toned polish shown here in two coats.  This polish has a beautiful gold subtle shimmer to it and looks lovely in the light.  this is not a polish I would have probably picked out for myself, but it looks great on!  I have to say application was a little streaky and seemed to even out with a second coat, but in the light you can still see a little streak on a couple of nails.  But overall I really love this polish and so glad that I'm going to get new ones next month!

If you're looking for a good deal and interested in Julep I would definitely look into the Maven box.
