Hi everyone! I'm a little late in showing you guys what I received in my October Julep Maven box, but hey, at least we're still in October ;)

Once again, I'm very happy with my Julep box! I received 2 polishes and a hand lotion. I haven't opened the lotion yet, because I'm still using my Julep lotion from my August box!

Brooklyn: a bright red with micro-red shimmer Dendrie: a muted grey

I love love LOVE this box! Julep is such a fun company from which to receive monthly packages!

Soooo...thoughts? Are you a Julep Maven? What box did you receive this month?

Hi everyone! So I've gotten a few inquiries asking me what exactly the Julep Maven program is. I've posted about it last month, but since I've gotten some new followers, I thought I would revisit it again to let you all get a chance to read about it and see if it's for you!

According to Julep's site:

"We launched our new Julep Maven program to give all of our girlfriends access to the beauty editor Sneak Peek Box we create every month.  As a Julep Maven, you will have access to the hottest trends in nail color and the latest Mani Care and Pedi Care products - delivered right to your doorstep, just like the beauty editors do.  And you'll have access to these trends and products before anyone else."

Curiousity did not kill this cat! haha!

So I had mentioned what I was receiving in my October Julep Maven box HERE.  I really loved the colors in it, but I thought to myself, 'Maybe I should request the shelf pull justt to seeeee what it is.'  It's that What's-behind-door-number-2" mentality :) The great thing about shelf pulls are that you're not obligated to it. If you don't like what's in the shelf pull, you can always go back to your original box!

Anyways, I requested the shelf pull and I got this email response from Julep!

 I got the option to pick ANY OF THE AVAILABLE STYLES FOR OCTOBER! And it's not just for me, it's for any Maven who requested a shelf pull!  According to Julep's Facebook Page:

Beloved Mavens, we hope you enjoy being able to CHOOSE your profile this month. Maybe you're feeling more "It-girl" or maybe you are more "Boho Glam". We have HEARD YOU loud and clear that what you love is OPTIONS, so we're responding to that this month by sharing them with you. Let us know what you think! You early Mavens are shaping what the program will be for future Mavens for years and years to come. THANK YOU! Jane Park

How awesome is that?!? I really do love the option of being able to select which one we like. Way to go, Julep! Everchanging for the better! <3

Sooooo, thoughts? Did you request a shelf pull? Are you happy with your box?

So excited!! I got an email from Julep letting me know what's in my October Maven box!

I'm really excited for this hand brightener! It sounds like an interesting product.  And Brooklyn (the reddish polish) is perfect for this winter!  The description sounds so pretty! "Ruby red with a hint of festive sparkles". Well hellllooooo!!  And Dendre is definitely not like any other color I own, I'm def excited for it!

Any of my fellow Mavens get your email also? What style are you? What are you getting in your October box?

XoXo,

Many of you may have already heard about Julep and their Maven Program, but if you haven't, let me give you a little background.

I received a nail treatment, 2 polishes, a full sized glycolic hand scrub and samples of hand cream.

Nail Therapy. Dries superfast and has an almost floral juniper scent to it.
