tomboy with a nail polish problem | mostly lacquer & unboxings
Just a quick unboxing post! I went with one of Julep's curated boxes this month, "Peaches & Dream" (the box they suggested for me), and threw in a few extra nail polishes: My picks: Skip the Brush Creme-to-Powder Blush Stick in Sweet Peach ($24 regular, $19.20 Maven), a “Light Peachy Pink Sheen," plus these nail colors:...

My August 2016 Julep Maven customized box arrived a bit early this month (yesterday) because Julep apparently hit a bit of a snag with the production of their No Excuses Invisible Sunscreen Gel and had to give us a rain check on that. Last I spoke to their customer service, there was no ETA on the... Continue Reading →
The second half of my Julep Maven May 2016 Maven box came in a bit earlier than expected, yay! (Here's the first half, if you'd like to read about the original unboxing or snag a promo code.) I normally don't post a picture of the description card, but this month's appealed to me with its bright rainbow colors: I took... Continue Reading →
My Julep Maven May 2016 Maven box arrived this past Tuesday - only it arrived in a suspiciously small box. I was pretty sure not everything I ordered could have fit in it. Here's what was inside: Baby-blue glittery tissue paper, indigo paper crinkles, and: Collection description and quote card with a lovely photo of the bright new... Continue Reading →
My Julep Maven February 2016 Maven box arrived this past Monday - yay! I would've posted earlier, but it's hard to fit in time to post on work nights, especially now that I've got 'Fiend Jr. as a second full-time job. :] Anyway, on to the box! I got the Modern Beauty box this month and tacked... Continue Reading →
My Julep Maven January 2016 Maven box arrived yesterday! I got the Modern Beauty box this time because I wanted to try their new moisturizer, plus I grabbed a few add-ons with some of the polishes I wanted at a reduced price. Such a good deal. Here's what came in the mail: A smaller box, plus... Continue Reading →
My Julep Maven December 2015 Maven box arrived yesterday! I had enough Jules saved up to snag a free box this month (birthday present to myself! ;)), and I have to admit, Elsa had me pretty excited. More on that in a bit. Here's what was in my shipment this month: The Eye Contact box had all four... Continue Reading →
My Julep Maven October 2015 monthly box came in last Thursday! I went with the Classic with a Twist box this time, since I liked the cranberry shimmer with holo so much. Here's what came in the box: The box was packed with burgundy paper crinkles and black tissue paper with iridescent silver glitter. The... Continue Reading →
My Julep Maven January 2015 box came in yesterday! Once again, I opted for the Modern Beauty box, and I have the feeling that's how things are generally going to go for me from now on, since I'm so saturated with Juleps - and nail polishes in general - that most of their new offerings...

I finally got my December Julep Maven box in the mail yesterday! I haven't had much time to polish my nails lately, with how busy I've been, so I decided to go with the Modern Beauty box this month. Here's what I got: The Modern Beauty December 2014 Julep box, which came in two boxes... Continue Reading →
