I have been wanting to try this service and I am finally going to sign up- you can register to be a Julep Maven and get your first beauty box free!
Julep is a company that makes high quality cosmetics- the products don’t contain many of the terrible chemicals you find in other beauty products.
The nail polish for example, is “4-free” and does not contain formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin, toluene, or DBP. You still get a good product that is chip free and in fun colors. This polish sells for $14 a bottle at Sephora.
So if you love trying new beauty items, you can register as a Julep Maven for the monthly subscription service.
You will get a box each month full of fun trendy items valued at $40 retail. The price of the box is $19.99. If you want to just try it out the first box is completely free except you do need to pay $3.99 for shipping.
So $3.99 for $40 in merchandise is pretty fantastic to me! The boxes include at least 2 nail polishes and you will fill out a short quiz when you sign up so they can customize to your specific tastes.
They will also email you a preview of what your next monthly box will look like (if you join the service) and you can make adjustments at that time.
If you decide the service isn’t for you, just call them before the 27th of the month and you can cancel the service! I think it might be fun to get a few of these boxes as a Valentine’s Day gift- especially those of you with teenagers that can be hard to shop for.
You can get all the details about Julep by heading over here. To get the first box free, the coupon code is FREEBOX.

*PS: These are the colors they have out in the January collection. You won’t get all these products in your box but you will get at least 2 of the polishes- these are perfect colors for the end of winter and start of spring.
I’ve tried this in the past and for my experience the nail polish was very poor quality, peeled off! Maybe I had a bad batch but I threw them out so proceed with caution.
Sherry, I checked the reviews on Sephora- they usually get a lot of good feedback on beauty items- and there is one other person that mentioned peeling. She did say that she used a base coat, 2 coats of color and a top coat so that seems like why she may have had the peeling. There are numerous other reviews though saying they love them. The nice thing is the first box is free and so if you find that to be an issue you are only out $3.99 and you can cancel. 🙂
