The Julep Maven July selection window is now open! This month’s theme is garden party. Each box also comes with the new Julep Doublestep foot treatment and friction stick:
There are also a few new add-on options:
The Champagne Trio is $14.99 as an add-on, and consists of all new colors!
The Moisture Mask Trio is available in the Modern Beauty Box and the entire collection upgrade. (It’s also available as an add-on). Plus one lucky Maven subscriber will win the August Mystery Maven prize!
I decided to go with the Boho Glam box this month and added on the Champagne Trio. (I successfully fought the urge to upgrade to the entire collection!) What options did you pick this month?

I skipped for the first time! The only colors I like are Fiore and Lacey. I am hoping to get them at a discount later. I wouldn’t use the Doublestep.
I’m debating if I want to do Classic with a Twist or skip this month – the DoubleStep Friction Stick is great item for me but I literally just bought a stick off Amazon last week!!
I was really kind of underwhelmed this month. If I got my usual “Modern Beauty” box I’d probably love it but nothing really jumped out at me. I already have a product similar to Doublestep and I’m not interested in the “It Girl” box because of the colors. I’m skipping for the first time since I signed up for the Maven box.
Last month I didn’t get any nail polish (I picked the one with the hair spray and body oil spray. In june I got the IT GIRL polish set. The colors are fantastic, but the formulation of 2 of the 3 polishes would be subpar for a cheap polish, let alone an expensive one. I did like the metallic trio, but I didn’t want any of the other boxes bad enough to spend $35 on polishes that might chip after only 1 day. I figured I would wait for fall…
Eh…. I was underwhelmed this month. I think I’m skipping for the first time ever! *gasp* lol!
Did you hear about this? http://www.hautelook.com/product/10635679 I think I’m going to order one!!
I went with Classic With A Twist and then added on Francis and Nellie. 🙂
The featured colors are pretty they just aren’t really my style so I went with my default profile box (Modern Beauty) and added on the Champagne trio because I love the idea of a metallic white-gold polish!
After realizing I would be paying $20 for a tiny stick and three one time use masks, I skipped. I am hoping they will feature the trio again in a promo or something.
I wanted to upgrade as well, but asked myself would I actually ever wear some of the colors. As pretty as the blue is I don’t see myself ever actually wearing it, or the yellow. So after switching to the upgrade, I switched back to my profile, Classic with a Twist. I am a big pink and purple fan. I added the trio and Fiore, because I don’t have a dark brown. Now I can save the difference for the new Bondi box. WOOT WOOT!!
