More Mail - Julep Maven!

I ordered an introductory box from Julep Maven back in December and it finally arrived! Julep Maven is similar to other monthly subscription services like Glymm Box and Birch Box where you get a few beauty products every month. Because Julep released a promo code this introductory box was only a penny! They made you take a quiz on what nail colors you would wear for certain occasions and the quiz determined that my nail color theme was most suited to "American Beauty." 

Everything arrived in a little red box and this bag was inside. Cute bow.

Sorry boyfriend in the background playing Modern Warfare :P

So what's inside?

1. Julep Nail Color in Demi - an elegant burgundy color (8mL)

2. Julep Nail Color in Jennifer - beautiful, sheer polish with just a hint of pink (8mL)

3. Pot of gold glitter

4. Julep "Facial for Hands" Glycolic Hand Scrub (89mL) + a 2mL sample

5. Age Defying Hand Brightener sample (2mL)

I think this is an amazing sample box for a penny! I haven't tried the polishes yet since I still have Warm & Fozzie on but I can't wait to try them. The hand scrub lotion is also really generous to offer. I'm not sure if this is/what the full size is but either way this is nice. I have dry and rough hands due to eczema that comes and goes so I hope this stuff works. I'll make a new post when I try these out.. sadly it might not be for a little while. My next polish in line to try out is OPI Lincoln Park After Dark! I bought it back in early December so it needs to be used first :)

I'm not sure if I'll stay subscribed to Julep. It's $20 a month and with that comes a few polishes + products. I'm not really a nail polish junky so I think I'm better off subscribing to a service that offers other beauty products. Julep's service seems great overall though as you can also skip months without fees/being charged, send your box to a girlfriend, or just cancel by giving them a call.
