Julep Maven…Maybe?

Posted on by The Style Cake

Soooo…..I know that everyone has heard of Julep and perhaps have seen what the company has to offer while browsing the website. I was subscribed to Julep as a “Maven” a couple a few years ago but I was not that thrilled with the company even though I had not tried out the polish. That being said, with the season of autumn here I decided to try one of the polishes that I purchased way back when since it was a dark polish. I will not be displaying this polish however I will say that in comparison to Revlon, Maybelline, and China Glaze, Julep’s polish lasted the longest and took the longest time to chip. I decided that I wanted to try Julep again. I will soon do a review on the polishes but at this point I would like to review the service and show what I have gotten. Stay tuned for a brief review with pictures of the polishes that I got and pictures of what I got (initial impressions after the jump).

Julep Maven

So…I’m not one to follow what everyone else is buying but I must admit that I was quite intrigued when I saw a Youtube video about the Julep Maven program. I’m a polish junkie and I wanted to see how this nail/beauty company added up. I tried the company out and needless to say, I can do without this program. The program consists of paying $19.99 per month and in return, you get nail lacquers and/or hand and foot care products. The products are pretty good, in particular, my fav is the hand glycolic cream. Other than this, I think that you are better off going to Walgreens or CVS and picking up Sinful Colors or going to Sally Beauty and getting OPI and China Glaze. My fav nail polish for a while is made by American Apparel. It’s cheaper than most, you don’t need 2 coats, and the color variety is great! Julep polishes are okay but I tend to think that these NEED two coats, contrary to their claim that you only need one coat. I just think for $19.99, you could get something better![slideshow]
