I decided to title this
post Julep Maven Part 2 because I
tried a Julep Maven box back in April and I wasn’t 100% impressed. However, I have recently been reading a ton
of Julep Maven reviews, all of which are very positive, needless to say it
sparked my attention. I checked out
their site once again and fell in love with the “It Girl” box which came with
very vibrant and fun Summer colors…so I decided to get it.
Upon trying the 3
polishes, named Lily, Daisy, and Sasha; I was amazed and completely surprised because the quality of
the polishes seemed different. All three
polishes from the July It Girl set blended perfectly and effortlessly onto my
finger nails. The wand picked up enough polish to provide a good enough coat
onto my nails; I did apply two coats on each finger to have a more vibrant
look. The polishes do dry quickly which is great because you don’t have to
spend a lot of time waiting for the coat to dry! In addition, the polishes did
last several days before I saw any chipping!
Did Julep Maven change
their formula? I ask because the first box I got back in April (which was also
called It Girl), was completely different in term of the quality. Then I noticed that my July It Girl polishes
were all sealed individually but I distinctly remember the April It Girl
polishes were not sealed at all…could it be that the other polishes were
tampered with? It’s hard to say, but what I do know is that I love the July It
Girl polishes; the colors are so pretty and very vibrant -- perfect for the
Summer months!

Hi Lauren, thanks girly!!
DeleteAll three colors look really good! I especially like the yellow colored polish. Just how long did it last before chipping started? I'm always looking for polishes that go the distance!
ReplyDeleteHi girly! 4 days before I saw any chipping, not bad right? =)
Deletecool
ReplyDeleteAND all those colors look really good on you!!! that yellow is so pretty!! VERY summer!
ReplyDeleteI signed up for Julep last month because of the one cent promo code. I also got the "Sasha" polish in my intro box and I adore it--it's the perfect pedicure color for me!
ReplyDeleteI LOVED the polishes in my intro box--you can read my review of them on my blog (http://quickcheapandpretty.blogspot.com/2012/09/my-julep-maven-intro-box-arrived.html)--I think they're well worth the price for the intense glossy finish and durability. I'm very hard on my manicures and just don't get that kind of wear out of drugstore polish. I've heard other comments about the polish formula possibly being altered over the summer so I think your guess was correct and Julep responded to customer complaints about a poor formula.
But here's the other thing that's really important: Julep allows you to SKIP months rather than cancel if you'd like. I think this is a really awesome feature that more beauty subscription services need to implement, for those of us who don't want (or can't afford) a new box every month. This was the feature that sealed the deal for me and I'm very excited about seeing my first box when it goes up for preview this month! I know that if I don't like it, I can just skip and wait for November.
