Subscription Review: Julep Maven Box x2

In a previous post, I mentioned a Julep Maven subscription box. The cost of the box is $20 per month. I also mentioned using the code JULESVIP to get your first box for only $4 (shipping included)!

I'm a sucker for a great deal and the opportunity to try new products.  Needless to say, I ordered two Julep Maven boxes (Classic with a Twist and It Girl). Both came on the same day. Unfortunately, I was so excited to get to the goodies, the "unboxing" photos are courtesy of my iPhone. However, I did take better pictures of the actual polish colors and products inside the box.

The Retail Value of my "Classic with a Twist" box is $50. This is what came inside! 


This is the initial "unboxing". Again, sincere apologies for the poor photo quality. 



The contents: 
 


 The box contained two polishes. Retail Value $14 each.
 Color #1: Claudette

 Color #2: Helen
 
 


 This box also included a Warming Food Scrub (which is INCREDIBLE!) with a Retail Value of $20ish bucks!  (I just want to add that I used this, and my feet felt soft for days, literally.)
 

 Lastly, each box contained a sample of the Glycolic Hand Scrub. I tried one packet, left my hands feeling as smooth as my feet! 
 



The Retail Value of my "It Girl" box is $42. This is what came inside! (plus a sample of the Glycolic Hand Scrub!)

Initial "unboxing" (Sorry! Picture isn't great!)

 

Here's what was inside:
 


 The first polish is a Trina Turk polish "Eileen" from the Fall '12 line. While it says "Fall", I used it under the gold glitter, and it looked fabulous! 



Color #2: Sasha


 Color #3: Oscar (I think that's a very appropriate name for this polish color!)

 


 Overall, I was very satisfied with the quality of the products in each of the boxes.  I wish I could splurge and keep even one of the $20 boxes. With a looming furlough and a cut in pay, that's probably not in my best interest.

My only complaint is that cancelling requires calling Julep's 800 number. You're unable to cancel via their website. However, the wonderful folks on the other end of that Julep line are incredibly awesome! The girl I spoke with was super, super nice!

Again, if you're interested in Julep Maven subscription boxes, I totally recommend them! Don't forget to use the code JULESVIP to get your first box for $4 shipped!
