Julep Maven Monthly Box: July


Hello Amaryllis Living readers! I'm back with my monthly Julep post for July. I know this is super later but I've just been so busy! I shouldn't be making excuses but better late than never right? 

So for this month Julep's Maven box theme was the summer and the beach. There were great colorful polishes unlike last month which was just...not summery at all. This means I was much more happy when I saw this collection.

I chose the "Classic With A Twist" box which included two nail polishes and a body lotion. The two nail polishes are Vicki and Kelsey. Let's begin with them!

Julep Maven Monthly Box: June


Hello everyone and welcome to the month of June! I have received my Julep Maven Monthly box and I'm kind of disappointed in the picks for the month. I'm seriously thinking about canceling my subscription and going to Ipsy? Anyone Ipsy subscribers? Please leave a comment down below and tell me if you are and your experiences with it.

The collection that Julep is highlighting for this month is The Three Wishes Collection. There are a wide range of colors, again based on your style quiz, and for Maven's if you don't like your bag you can switch to a different style. This month also features the Oxygen Technology Base Coat and Top Coat. It's supposed to give you stronger, healthier, and breathable nails. 



I was originally Boho Glam but I didn't really like what the box had so I switched over to Classic with a Twist. In it, came three items, the Oxygen Smoothing Base Coat, and two nail polishes in Bergen and Ariana. I was more particular to this box because I've pining for a new base coat and I personally think the nail polish colors are something I would definitely wear.


Oh! And I got pixie sticks in my box. LMFAO did any other subscribers get pixie sticks? Stix...?


Well anyways, click on read more to check out my thoughts on each polish!

Julep Maven Monthly Box: First Box First Impressions & Swatches


Hello wonderful people that actually read our blog! It's been a long time since we last posted  but it is May now! A Drugstore Makeup Finds Of The Month will be due soon because I plan to be faithful to that segment of our blog. 

Well anyways, this blog post will be about the Julep Maven Monthly Box and my first experience with any type of monthly box. Julep was having an amazing deal for new members where the first box is basically free! All you have to do is pay for shipping which is just a measly $3 considering the box itself each month is $25. You get three Julep products ranging from nail polish, makeup, nail care, skin care, maybe haircare (?), and anything else Julep does. Honestly, I thought the only thing Julep did was just nail polishes and I've seen those at Sephora before. They run for about $14 and I could never justify buying them. I do have Butter London polishes which are I think a dollar more but they were more hyped at the time I was really into nail polish. 

I haven't heard much about Julep but I could not pass up this amazing deal and I've always wanted to try a monthly box like this. When you go on the site you're first asked to sign up and take a "Style Profile" quiz. The results of the quiz will determine your box of the month. I ended up getting Boho Glam and received two nail polishes and one nail care product. It also came with a buffer for your nails and cards and whatnot describing your box. Honestly, you can choose the style box you want but I went with what I got because it was my favorite one out of the bunch anyways.

Let's check out the products I got!
