I recently ordered a box from Julep because they had a special New Year's promotion. The total turned out to be ONE CENT for the month's box! Crazy, right?

"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.

Then each month, we'll send you an email to let you know what we've curated for you in your customized beauty editor Sneak Peek Box. If you don't like what you see, you can try a new style."
What I received:

2. Anne (valued at $18)
"Ultra-saturated violet. A tribute to one of our beautiful celebrity guests! Eye-catching on a pedicure and head-turning on a manicure--especially if your wardrobe is heavy on blacks and neutrals. Professional quality “4-free” nail polish formulation, developed without carcinogens such as formaldehyde or formaldehyde resin, toluene and DBP. Shine on! $1 will be donated to organizations that support women through our Powered by Girlfriends program."
"Shimmering platinum rose. Feminine and sophisticated. Professional quality “4-free” nail polish formulation, developed without carcinogens such as formaldehyde or formaldehyde resin, toluene and DBP. Shine on! $1 will be donated to organizations that support women through our Powered by Girlfriends program."
I was so excited to receive this in the mail!
Super cute packaging! At the same time, I feel like the box had a lot of space left over... a smaller box would be sufficient considering how small the nail polishes are! I always appreciate companies that spend less on packaging to make their products more affordable, versus this.
As true to color as I could get it! Both are pretty, right? The metallic shimmer in Maria is so eye-catching!
The actual bottles are soooo small though. $18 value? I don't think so.

Love this color! (And I don't even like the color pink!)
I would love to buy this separately... if it weren't $32. :(
Love products with SPF30! Will be sure to try this out sometime.
Value: 5/5 for the price I paid for it but otherwise 2/5
I'd much rather spend $20 a month on OPI, China Glaze, Zoya, etc.
Quality: 3.5/5
Packaging was great, but actual product quality was so-so. Loved Maria, but kind of hated Anne's streakiness. The nail polishes also chipped like MAD. The hand cream was great, so I'd maybe consider spending $20 on that.
Repurchase: No. Not unless there's another ONE CENT deal!
Be sure to watch my video for a more thorough review of each product/demo!
What do you guys think? I want to hear about your experiences, and other sites that you recommend me checking out!
