Fabletics November Review

     Time to share some happy mail with you today!  I love getting my Fabletics package in the mail and this month was no exception.  A quick recap for any newcomers, Fabletics is an active wear company co founded by Kate Hudson, which offers a monthly membership (aka VIP) for high quality activewear at affordable prices.  I have been a VIP since Feb 2014 and I love it.  The 1st of each month Fabletics posts new outfits and you have from the first to the fifth to pick or skip.  It is a super nice feature to be able to skip a month if needed since most subscriptions do not offer that.  If you forget to pick or skip your account will be charged the $49.95 and you will have that credit to spend whenever you choose.  I set an alarm in my phone to remind myself, though they also send an email. This month I chose the Gather outfit and added the headband to my order. 

Salar Leggings - I only looked at the outfits containing Salar leggings this month because they are my absolute favorite and I needed more!!  Seriously if you haven't tried them you are missing out, I wear them under dresses, with tunics, and of course you could also workout in them ;).  Since they are max compression I size up in these and get the mediums.  The fabric is soft and the max compression really holds everything in place.  Love, love, love these leggings!

Headband - This was my add on and it came just in time as today we are having our first big snow.  This headband fits nice and snug on my head and even has a hole in the back for your ponytail.  The hole is a nice concept but I must wear my ponytail too high because if I put it through then it doesn't cover my ears.  No big deal I just put it under the ponytail and it works like a charm.

Loveland Hoodie - I got this hoodie in teal and the color is beautiful.  It is a thin top so great for layering or wearing during a warm up.  I love how long the sleeves are and will get plenty of use out of it.  

     Another great outfit from Fabletics!  Fabletics starts at $49.95 a month and if you would like to try, you are in luck because first outfits are HALF OFF!  I love picking a new outfit each month and it can be great motivation to work out (I need to get back into working out and not just collecting workout wear).  Did you get Fabletics this month?  Which outfit did you pick?

Julep Maven November Review + Free Box Code

    

     It's here!!  My November Julep Maven box has arrived and it is looking quite festive.  If you are not familiar, Julep Maven is a monthly nail polish and beauty box.  I love getting a monthly box in the mail, though Julep is different in that it is completely customizable.  Now, in case you are wondering there is an item missing.  Their new Go Big mascara was delayed in getting to their warehouse so it will be coming later but they already sent an email explaining with a bonus 950 jules.  Jules are points you earn and put towards maven boxes and add ons.  I am happy they decided to send the rest right away because it is hard to be patient ;). 

Marzia is a gorgeous metallic chrome shimmer from the It Girl collection.  I really love this color and I think it will be the perfect accent color for some fun holiday nails.  Now I just need to come up with a design!  If you have any ideas for holiday nails I would love to see :).

Shari is described by Julep as a delicate sweet pea creme.  I was thinking Shari was more of a light pink  but after swatching she looks more on the nude side.  Either way she is fabulous, I love soft pinks and nude colors so this is right up my alley.  She also looks great with my skin tone which is always my concern with nudes.

     This amazing palette was not in my box (I wish it was though!) but it is one of their holiday items you can preorder now.  I probably do not "need" another eye shadow palette however this is beautiful and needs to be shared!  Plus right now if you order, say, that pretty palette you would also get the above clutch full of goodies as a free gift.  If you have not, you should head over to Julep's website and check out their holdiay gift items and remember if you spend over $35 enter code SHINEDOWN for your free extras.

     I love the colors I chose for November and seriously cannot wait to try their new mascara!  Julep Maven always has your first box free with code FREEBOX (you pay shipping) and after that it is $24.99 a month.  You can also sign up for three months which would bring the cost down to $19.99 a month.  Did you get a box this month?  Which colors did you choose?

Fabletics September Review

       Ahhhh, I was pretty excited for this month's Fabletics picks to come up!  I love fall and fall colors and fall outfits and well, you get the point.  Right away I loved the deep jewel toned purple and gray patterns they had going this month.  Purple isnt my normal go to color but give me anything in a jewel tone and I am happy.  Since I jumped right into this month's collection, I better back track for anyone who is new to Fabletics.  Fabletics is an active wear company co founded by Kate Hudson.  When you make your first purchase you are given the opportunity to join the VIP program for some great prices!  As a VIP member you are given new boutiques each month to pick out a new outfit at the VIP price (or several outfits, no judging here).  If  you do not find something between the 1-5th each month simply click the skip month option to avoid being charged that month.  If you forget you will be charged and given a member credit to spend at any time.  I set an alarm in my phone so I don't forget (though I am usually super excited and counting down the days).  Now back to my September picks, I choose the Kalahari outfit (pictured above)!

     I really think the Hawthorn tank is beautiful.  The side panels of black are very slimming and it is nice and long.  When I ordered the tank it was still warm weather so I thought I would be alright with a tank, and now in true Minnesota fashion it suddenly dropped to 50 degrees.  Oh well it is cute and fit nicely so I will just pair it with a sweatshirt.  

     The Kalahari outfit also came with the Salar leggings and a headband.  I love my Salar capris so I was excited to get a pair of the leggings.  The fabric is soft and has maximum compression.  These are just what I thought they would be!  One of the best things about these is I can easily use these under a tunic with boots for fall outfits as well as for the gym.  Love when I can dress something up or down!

     This whole outfit was only $59.95!  I used to spend that on just a pair of pants.  Fabletics outfits start at $49.95 and you can get your first outfit for half off!  Thats right, I said HALF OFF!  This means to try it out you can get an outfit for $25, and if you feel it isn't for you, you can cancel anytime.  I joined back in February and have been loving it!  Did you get an outfit this month?  What did you pick?

Julep August Review + FREE BOX

     This is my second month of Julep and I actually went for the beauty products this month!  Julep is a monthly nail polish and beauty box.  Your first box is a welcome box, which I had already gotten (see here), and then each month the maven window opens up from the 20-24th to pick out your colors and products for the next month.  All new Julep  subscriptions are completely customizable.  You can pick two colors and a beauty/nail product or two beauty products.  You are also given options to upgrade from there and yes, you can get the whole collection if you choose :).

     This month the nail colors just weren't my thing.  They were really bright and sparkly, which I thought was pretty, but I am normally a little more neutral ;).  I also knew I just HAD to try one of their new eye gliders!  That made my choice pretty easy this month and I choose the Modern Beauty box and swapped out eye glider colors.  Julep just switched from DHL to Fedex for shipping to try and get boxes out faster.  Mine was here on the 8th so not too bad (still not super fast but nail polish has to travel ground).  

Smoky Plum Gel Eye Glider - The eye gliders are Julep's new beauty product this month.  They are a cross between a gel and an eye liner.  They go on smoothly and can be smudged but then set and stay put for 10 hours. I have been loving mine so far, I might have to get the Smoky Taupe Shimmer too!

Neutrals Eye Palette -  I have been eyeing this palette for awhile so when I saw the eye gliders I figured it was time! They look lighter in the picture than they do in person but the colors are gorgeous.  They sweep on very nicely and are the perfect size palette for traveling!

   Julep boxes are $24.99 monthly or $19.99 a month for a 3 month subscription.  However right now they have an amazing deal going on where you can sign up for the 3 month Julep  subscription and use the code FREESIZZLE to get a five piece welcome box free and 20% off!!  That ends up being only $48 for four boxes!  It is a great deal and all the new maven boxes are completely customizable so if you do not like their selections you can swap out to get what you want.  Love my selections this month and I cannot wait to see next month's colors (I am hoping for some silk finishes!).

Fabletics August Review + Half Off

     I love my selections for Fabletics this month and I couldn't wait to get my hands on them!  For anyone who is not familiar, Fabletics is an active wear company founded by Kate Hudson.  You can enroll in their VIP membership, where you will get even better prices on high quality active wear.  As a VIP you will have new selections each month on the first (they also release new outfits on the 15th) and you will have five days to pick an outfit or skip that month.  In the event that you forget to do either they will charge you $49.95 for you to spend later.  I set an alarm in my phone for the first and again on the fifth so I do not forget (though usually I am way to excited to forget!). Of course you are also able to cancel anytime.  Anyways onto the fun part…

     For my August pick I went with the Meadow outfit.  It is a three piece selection and I also got one add which is why I have an extra piece in my the picture ;).  These were all new pieces for me (except the headband) so I couldn't wait to try them on!  Shipping took the normal week to get here.  Not the fastest shipping out there but they are consistent.

Fremont Tank - I ordered this tank in a Medium instead of a small because it is fitted.  In most of the fitted tops I am more comfortable in the size up.  That said, I love the fit of this tank!  The material is soft and stretchy so the medium fits wonderfully.  It is also nice and long, I really hope to see more colors in this tank next month!

Havana Coverup - This is my add on and as you can see it is gorgeous!  I love the cut out on the back and it looks awesome over my Fremont tank!  I went with a small on this one since the reviews said not to size up and it fits great.  This is one instance where I was super thankful for the reviews on the Fabletics website.  I am only sad I didn't get it in white too, what was I thinking?!?

Hamilton Sweatpant - These are a little out of my box and to be honest I am not sure what I think yet. I love the material, it is super soft and I really want to like them but I wish they were about 2-3 inches longer.  I knew from the picture they sat above the calf muscle so it is my own fault.  I am keeping them because otherwise they are great.  I have a weird thing about my calves, maybe I can get over it since they are so comfy.

Headband - I have a few of these headbands and they are nice for when my hair is out of control.  They do slide around a bit so they might not be great for every activity but  like them!

    The Meadow outfit was $49.95 and my add on was only $9.95 so once again a fantastic price!  I used to spend that much on just one pair of workout pants so I am very happy with the price.  I also think the quality is great so it's a win win!  If you are new to Fabletics you will also get your first outfit for 50% off when you sign up as a VIP!  I am very happy with this month's selections and I can't wait to see what they come out with in September (and of course the mid month release!).

Fab Kids Review + Discount

     Fabkids is a subscription membership started by a team of moms including Christina Applegate, to bring high quality fashionable kids wear at an affordable price.  When you sign up for the VIP membership you will take a style quiz for you little one.  They will then offer you selections and you pick which one suits them!  I love the option of choosing which outfit you are getting each month.  Simply log in to your account between the 1st-5th each month and either select an outfit or skip using the button in your account.  If you fail to do either you will be charged the $29.95 and have a credit to use later.  Fabkids offered selections for boys and girl starting at 2T and going through a 12.  Here is our first outfit selection for Amelia.

     We selected the Sunshine and Stripes outfit above.  It was so cute on their website so I had high hopes when I ordered.  I did hear from someone who had previously subscribed that the clothes were thin which had my a little concerned, but I decided to keep an open mind.  When I opened it up and felt the dress it seems very well made and sturdy!  I was a bit surprised because it was not thin material at all.  Clearly they had ordered something else because we love this dress.  Both times she has worn it we have gotten compliments!  Now the leggings are also really cute and I love the color and Capri style.  They are a thinner material but I would say they are on par with the Gap leggings we normally get so no complaints.  They seem really comfortable for my daughter which is what really matters.

     Now to talk sizing.  My daughter is normally a 12-18 month in most Carter and Gap clothing with the occasional 18-24 month outfit (especially with leggings).  Since Fabkids starts at a 2T that is what we ordered knowing we may have to wait to grow into it.  I was pleasantly surprised at how perfectly it fits her!  This could be a problem though if you are ordering the size they should be, so I would possibly size up.  The good news is, if you need to exchange for another size it is super easy and completely free!

    Fabkids costs $29.95 per outfit each month with no limit to how many outfits you can use your discount on.  With new selections each month you will hopefully be able to find something to suit your little one.  When you first sign up, your first outfit at Fabkids is only $15!  After completing Amelia's style profile, we were given a $10 credit in our account making our first outfit only $5!  That includes shipping so we got an amazing deal!  To make the deal even better I went through Swagbucks earning 1000SB, which equals a $10 Giftcard to Amazon (or whatever store you choose)!  In summary, I am very pleased with our Fabkids purchase and I can't wait to see what is in the August selections!

July Julep Review + FREE First box + GIVEAWAY

    I am so excited to be getting my first "official" Julep Maven box!  Julep is a monthly nail polish and beauty box.  Your first box is a welcome box, which I had already gotten (see here), and then each month the maven window opens up from the 20-24th to pick out your colors and products for the next month.  All new Julep  subscriptions are completely customizable.  You can pick two colors and a beauty/nail product or two beauty products.  You are also given options to upgrade from there and yes, you can get the whole collection if you choose :). 

                                      

      Shipping took quite while this month and to apologize Julep gave everyone 100 Jules (those are their reward points).  I know on Facebook someone had talked to customer service and was told that they were working on their shipping issues and things would come faster within 30 days.  Hopefully that means next month I won't have to wait so long!  Anyways, like I said this was my first month to customize and it was harder than I thought it would be to settle on two colors and one product.  

                                      

Lorenzana ($11.20/14.00) - This is a really pretty light taupe color with a creme finish.  I am actually going to use this as my base color today!  I am quite certain this color and I are going to get along fabulously! 

Lissa ($11.20/14.00) - This color was a no brainer for me.  I love teals and turquoises and was immediately drawn to this color.  I am going to do some kind of accent nail with this today for my mani (I also have a coral I might add in), now to decide on a design...

Oxygen Performance Top Coat ($14.40/18.00) - I already have and love the Freedom topcoat so I am really hoping to love this too!  Their new oxygen technology (which is also in the nail polish) is supposed to let oxygen get through to your nails letting them breathe.  I figured for healthier nails it is worth a try, plus you can always use more topcoats!

    All totaled up this box has a value of $36.80 for Maven members or $46.00 retail value.  Julep Maven boxes start at $24.99 a month or $20 a box for 3 month subscription, so you are getting your money's worth.  I love being able to customize too, that really adds value for me (cause I am so picky with my colors).  When you are making your selections you have the option of several add ons and you can also shop the secret store, where you can find some great deals.  As I mentioned earlier, if you are interested in giving Julep a try you can get your welcome box for free (plus $2.99 shipping) with the code FREEBOX.  You really can't go wrong with that!  Also, just because I thought it would be a nice treat, I am giving away a free July box!!  I picked out three fun summer colors in the picture below (including Lissa which is now out of stock online).  Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog and be sure to get in on the giveaway!

Fabletics Review + July Picks +Half off First Outfit

   Normally I do just one review a month, but I could not resist the mid month release this June!  It was like Fabletics read my mind when they created these pieces!  For anyone who is not familiar, Fabletics is an active wear company founded by Kate Hudson.  You can enroll in their VIP membership, where you will get even better prices on high quality active wear.  As a VIP you will have new selections each month on the first (they also release new outfits on the 15th) and you will have five days to pick an outfit or skip that month.  In the event that you forget to do either they will charge you $49.95 for you to spend later.  I set an alarm in my phone for the first and again on the fifth so I do not forget (though usually I am way to excited to forget!). Of course you are also able to cancel anytime.  Anyways onto the fun part…

     Seriously, look at these super cute tops!!  Obviously I "had" to order when these were released mid month, just in case they sold out before the first (learned this lesson the hard way in May).  

Moa Jacket - This was simply adorable when I saw it online and it is even better in person!  I am keeping my fingers and toes crossed in hopes of more colors in this style.  It is made from a super light weight mesh, so it is perfect for spring, summer, and fall.  I have been needing something in a lighter weight to throw over my tanks and this is now my go to piece!

Oula Tank - If you read my June review then you know I had gotten this tank in another color.  I had put it that review I was hoping for mint julep and here it is!  This time around I did order up one size so that it fits just a bit looser and longer (a medium instead of a small).  Now I saw that they released a purple and a gray in the oula, which is awesome!  Oh, this is one of my favorite tanks I have tried and I highly recommend it!

Ayni Sports Bra - This bra has slightly padded cups which is super nice.  I like the color (mint julep is my favorite!) and the fit is great.  You can't see in this photo but the back is a racer back, which is great since most of my tanks are racerback.

   Alright I am not a selfie expert, but I wanted to show how nicely these tops fit!  I think the Moa jacket really dresses up the tanks for running errands and going out.   I am very pleased with these purchases and if you would like to try  Fabletics, you can get your first outfit half off!   Fabletics outfits start at $49.95, and yes that is a whole oufit!  I am very pleased with the style and quality of  Fabletics and love how affordable it is.  Also they now have their July picks up so now is a great time to hurry over and pick out something cute!  Sizes can go fast so if you see something you love don't wait too long!  Below is one of the outfits I am thinking about this month!

Petit Vour Review June 2014

     Petit Vour is a monthly beauty box that sends cruelty free vegan products.  Petit Vour sends deluxe samples and even full sized products!  Normally boxes ship around the 15th but this month mine didn't ship until the 21st.  I am not sure why since I saw a few reviews coming out way before I got my box.  However, I will say this is the first time there has been any sort of shipping delay with my box.  

    This month's theme is Bon Voyage and included a collection of travel sized essentials!  I like this theme and these are all new brands for me.  

EVOLVh Ultra Shine Moisture Shampoo and Conditioner ($15) - These are my favorite from the box this month!  That's right, I am using them now since I don't have any trips planned ;).   I have been trying to find a shampoo and conditioner set that I love (that is ingredient conscious, of course) and this might be it!  It smelled amazing and my hair is super soft and shiny, a really great set!

ncLA Nail Lacquer ($16) - Nail polish is a summer must have so this is a welcome item.  I haven't tried this brand before and I didn't previously have this color so I am happy with this!

MUN No. 1 Aknari ($4.75) - I love trying new skincare so I was excited to try this serum!  I out it on before bed and my skin felt nice but I am not a big fan of the smell.  I will keep using it and see how it is after a few days.

Tay Rosehip Balancing Cleanser with Seabuckthorn ($4?) - I love the packaging on this cleanser it is so unique!  I haven't tried the cleanser yet, as I usually just use a Norwex face cloth but i will soon.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the products this month!  All totaled up this box had a retail value of $39.75.   Petit Vour is $15 a month and always has a much higher retail value!  One of my favorite things about  

 Petit Vour is their curation, I love the different brands and mix of products they deliver!

Love with Food July Spoiler + Free Box

    When I heard Love with Food was partnering with 2 Degrees Food for the July box I thought it was a perfect match!  Love with Food donates a meal for each box they send and 2 Degrees sends out a meal for each bar they sell, so for each July box sold two meals will be going to out those in need (and 4 for each deluxe box!).  I am excited that Love with Food kindly gave me the opportunity to review some of the 2 Degree bars before the July box comes out!

I received a four bar sample pack.  In addition to feeding children in need 2 Degrees is also all natural, vegan, gluten free, GMO free, kosher, low sodium, and made in the USA.  I was able to try cherry almond, chocolate peanut, chocolate banana, and apple pecan.  It is tough to pick a favorite but I would say it is between the cherry almond and the chocolate peanut!

Here is a close up of the cherry almond bar.  It tasted so good!  I love the crunch of the nuts and seeds with the chewy cherries.  They even include ancient grains such as chia, millet, and quinoa so they packed full of nutrition.  These bars are fantastic and I will definitely be ordering some more of these!

  Now if you are interested in getting your hands on one of these bars there is still time to sign up for the July Love with Food!  To make things even better you can get your first box FREE, just pay $2 shipping!  Love with Food includes 8-10  all natural or organic surprise snacks each month for only $10 (plus $2 shipping).   Be sure to hurry to get in on the July box, happy snacking!

Disclosure- I received these bars free of charge for review purposes.  I did not receive any monetary compensation and opinions are 100% my own.

Sample Society Mystery Boxes + GIVEAWAY

     This week Sample Society had a sale on previous boxes to clear out their inventory.  Sample Society is a beauty box that brings you five deluxe samples each month (they even throw in full size products occasionally).  You could buy 5 boxes for $25 (normally $15 each) and if you bought 10 then you could use code BBTWITTER (now expired I think) to save another $15!  I know that is a lot of numbers but I ended up getting 10 boxes for only $35!  To make it even better they have free two day shipping so they are already here!   Opening ten boxes at once, it was like Christmas :). Here are my boxes...

As you can see you definitely are getting an awesome deal!  The Butter London products alone (all full size!) are worth $70!   Since the are so many products I did not do a cost breakdown for each box like I normally would.  I ended up with two sets of these five boxes.  When ordering I guess there were different sets, which I didn't see so I got two of the same set.  This is working out to your benefit however since it means I am giving away a box!  To keep it exciting I am not telling which 

box it will be :). They are sold out of these mystery boxes right now but I will update if they get more in.  Until then please enter for a chance to win some awesome products!

Ellie Review June 2014

     This is my first time ordering from Ellie.  Ellie is an active wear company that creates high quality limited run pieces for the modern woman.  They release new outfits each month and you can join their Fit Fashionista Club for special pricing!  To receive their member pricing you sign up for a monthly outfit.  You have from the 1-15th each month to pick and outfit or skip (to skip you must call customer service). If you do not pick or skip they will send you a surprise outfit.  One thing to note is you only get member pricing on two pieces each month, so if you order extras those will be full price.  Anyways here are my picks!

   Here is my outfit pick for June.  I know it is long sleeved but it looked so cute online I just had to get it.  Ellie took about three days to process my order and then about a week to ship.  Since you pick what you want they do not send an information card.

Accelerator Capri - I seem to have forgotten to snap a solo picture of these capris but they are more gray than they look in the picture.  I love the heather gray color and the fit is very nice.  These are super comfy and I would definitely recommend!

Willpower Hoodie - When I picked this out online it looked to be a nice coral color and now in my picture it looks pink.  However, in real life it is actually a rather bright orange.  I also took a close up of the fabric because I couldn't see the flecked pattern in the photos either.  That said the color and pattern are not my favorite.  I will be keeping this top though because the fit and style are very nice.  I really wish they had been the lighter coral color like the photo, then it might be one of my favorite tops.

  Core Power Tee - I also ordered an extra, I couldn't help myself!  This is the core power tee and the fabric is super soft!  I love the length, fit and style of this top.  Now I only wish it came in more colors!  

     The first outfit was $70.98 member pricing, but you also get an extra 20% off your first purchase!  The core power tee was $39.95reg. price and $24.99 member price.  Their member price for outfits seems to start at $49.95 which is really reasonable!  My only complaint would be to get free shipping you must spend over $100.  When you pair that with the fact you can only get two items with the member pricing means you will either pay $7.95 shipping each month (I don't like paying for shipping) or you must buy a third item at full price.  Overall I really liked my Ellie clothes!  I thought the quality is really awesome and the prices are very affordable (especially with member pricing).  I also contacted customer service and they were very helpful as well (the extra 20% didn't deduct from my order total).  I know I always appreciate when companies have great customer service.  I am interested to see what the new releases will be next month!

Julep Hello Summer Welcome Box Review + Free Box + Deals

     With a free welcome box (you pay $2.99 shipping use code freebox or mavenbff), trying Julep seemed like a no brainer!  Right away we are off to a good start with their 2-4 day expedited shipping!  I love when boxes get here super fast because, well, I am not always patient.  It is a fantastic way to try out some of Julep's products!  It will sign you up for their monthly subscription which is $24.99 a month.  Each month the Maven window opens up on the 20th and you have until the 24th to customize your box (that's right you can pick which colors and products YOU want!). You can skip once every 6 months incase you don't find anything you want that month.  Of course you can also cancel anytime.  This is their Hello Summer welcome box so I was hoping to see some fun summer colors. Now onto the box...

     Normally you pick from their five different box styles but this is a special 5 piece welcome box so mine was a surprise!  Right off the bat I was happy to see colors I did not have (although I don't have many colors so that's pretty easy!).

Evelyn - It Girl ($14/$11.20) - This is a deep purple creme color and uses their oxygen technology that let's your nail breath.  All Juleps polishes are 5 free as well.  This is a pretty color and I will probably use it more in the fall.

Tatum - Bombshell ($14/$11.20) - This metallic chartreuse also uses their oxygen technology and is 5 free.  I think this color is gorgeous, in fact I already used it for my nail design on my current mani!

Ramona - Classic with a Twist ($14/$11.20) - I can already see using this lavender creme color for designs on Evelyn.  Again oxygen technology and 5 free ;)

Lip Gloss in Posh ($20/$16) - This is described as a sheer black honey color, but it is too dark for me.  I will probably pass this on to someone who enjoys a deeper lip color (I mostly stick to neutrals).  

Kajal Eyeliner ($22/$10) - I am in LOVE with this eyeliner!  One side is a black liner and the other side is a brown shimmer.  It goes on smoothly and comes with the sharpener.

    I am loving the Hello Summer welcome box and I am really excited for July's picks coming up soon!  The Hello Summer welcome box came up to $84 retail and $59.60 maven pricing (members get special discounted pricing and free shipping). This is an amazing value and I will definitely be getting more boxes and growing my nail polish collection.  Each month is $24.99 and contains $40+ in products and polish.  Best part is the boxes are now completely customizable!   Julep's welcome box is free (just pay $2.99 shipping) with the code freebox or bffevent.  

I also ordered this May box from their shop!  I couldn't resist since I had a $15 referral credit (so share the love of Julep with your friends!) and I must have that wand!  Their new plié wand attached to the caps of the nail polish caps to make it easier to paint your nails!  I also love, love , love the colors Kam and Jules!  Kam is a vintage mint and Jules is a sheer pink and I am debating repolishing my nails even though I just did them yesterday!

DEAL ALERT!!! Welcome box plus 3 month subscription under $17!!!
I already mentioned you can get your first box free with code freebox or bffevent.  This is a different deal:
You can go to Julep and click join maven and take the style survey.  When ordering go to pay for 3 month sub ($19.99 a month this way).   Your total will be $59.97 and in the promo code box in checkout enter freegift (I believe you must use lowercase letters) which will take off $43.  It will bring your total to $18 something which on the next screen will be $16.97!  Doing it this way you don't even have to pay the shipping on your welcome box!

Also here are some codes for the Julep store:
POLISHPERK- Free polish with any order $15+
OXYGEN2- 30% off new oxygen base and topcoat duo
PERK1020- $10 off a $20+ order

Disclosure- I paid for this box on my own and did not receive any compensation for my review.  As always opinions are 100% my own.
