Julep Maven Review & Free Box Coupon Code – June 2017

Julep Maven is a monthly nail polish and beauty subscription box. They make all their own products, so subscribers get a good value each month – over $40 retail worth of product for $24.99 a month.

And, if you sign up for 3-months up front, you get the $19.99 rate.

Each month Julep releases a new collection on the 20th, and you can decide which items you want, you can upgrade to the entire collection, or you can skip that month.

My Subscription Addiction pays for this subscription. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes).

This box came with a fold out sheet that details the beauty item for the month and the new colors launched.

Now, on to the items!

Julep usually includes a bonus item like candy in every box. And I appreciate that they add a card with ingredients:

Julep Nail Polish in Jaydra - Retail Value $14

I think this is my favorite Julep nail polish color of all time!

It's described as a "Tuscan Rose Sheer Holographic." It's a deep blush, with shimmer, and it takes two coats for full coverage.

FYI - you can remove the cap to swatch the sticker on the lid!

Here it is on:

Julep Cushion Complexion in 210 Cashmere - Value $30

This is a brand new item from Julep, and I needed to try it out!

I like the texture of the cushion applicator - it gave me a smooth and even finish. The formula worked well for me, too. I could get medium to full coverage without having a caked-on look.

Here it is swatched:

Julep Eye Makeup Eraser - Value $10

I ordered this because it seems so convenient, and then when it arrived I remember why I've struck out with items like this in the past - even though they remove makeup, the makeup usually remains on the felt tip of the pen, so you're never really using a clean version of it for other makeup removal jobs.

And then I noticed this product gets really mixed reviews on Julep. I, fortunately, didn't get a scratchy tip applicator like some reviewers mentioned, and it removed makeup well. I still prefer my standard q-tip and makeup remover, but this is definitely ideal to keep in your purse, or for travel.

(Given the mixed reviews on Julep's site, I'm guessing this item has some quality control issues, and I don't recommend purchasing it.)

And this box also included a coupon for a free polish with your next purchase.

Verdict: I'm thrilled with my polish selection and the new concealer pen from Julep. The makeup remover pen is a bit of a bust, but that's partially on me for selecting it in the first place! Even if I exclude that item, I'm happy with the value, though!
