I got my first Julep Maven box today!

I was kind of skeptical when I ordered it but I used a code that I only had to pay $.01. I was willing to take the risk for that. I was impressed when I opened my box. After the quiz, I was matched with the "it girl" box. I got three polishes and a top coat, a sample of hand lotion, one of age defying hand brightener, a full tube of hand scrub and a little tub of nail glitter. A lot of wonder for one cent. haha. And of course I had to paint my nails right away. I used the hand scrub which is wonderful. It has apricot seeds in it so it feels lovely and makes your hands so soft. After that I tried the hand cream. It was alright. Nothing extraordinary about it.
Next up was the polish. I tried Kim first. It's a wonderful gunmetal color gray, and definitely my favorite, these are very easy to apply and very opaque. I used Helena, the magenta color, on my accent nail. I figured the glitter wouldn't coat very well so I used Helena as a base coat to that. I was wrong. Chloe, the deep purple glitter, covered so well in one coat that I can't even tell Helena is under it. And I love Chloe. Its gorgeous. I finished with the fast drying top coat. It actually does dry super fast. Probably the quickest I've tried.

Overall, very impressed with Julep. I was going to cancel after the first month, but now I think I'll wait to see what the second box brings. (Forgive my poor nail polishing skills. 24 and I still can't not paint my fingers. haha)
