I got the box with the skin milk and cleansing oil. I love that cleansing oil and always keep a back up of it.

Definitely getting a box this month even though I have tons of julep polish. I’m getting the skin milk and the free top coat. So far I’ve traded out my two nail colors for a base coat and the red matte Metallic one, but I might change my mind before the end of the 24th, when our selections have to be finalized.

I am drowning in polish now, but will stay with Julep if they keep diversifying the beauty lines. Their facial oil is now a staple, so every couple of months I need to use a sub box to refill. Can’t justify just staying for face wash, but am excited to try this oil milk and their lipsticks are now my fave. Best product I have found aside from the oils has been their eyeliner. Love. Does not smudge and I have 36 year old eyes that make for smudgy end of day makeup. Ugh. More beauty items, Julep!!

Is it just me or is this a little less cohesive-looking than the last few months? I’m not a fan of most of the colours and am actually only getting Maggie and Janice (plus the shimmer treatment, free top coat and a couple make-up items. . . I have no self-control) which aren’t really part of this month’s collection, right? I’m finding the matte metallics idea interesting. . . but I own metallics and a matte top coat so I can try that out on my own 🙂

I’ve skipped Julep for about the last 8 months but I LOVE the colors this month. I’m obsessed with rose gold so I’m loving Rashida and I love facial oils so I’ll probably be adding on the milk and possibly those gold nail wraps. I was close to cancelling Julep altogether, but this box has sucked me back in, at least for now.

I’m getting Cheyenne, Sonia, Rashida, Aubrey and Maggie nail colors and the What Your Skin Needs. I have way too many colors; even changing my nail polish twice a week it’s questionable whether I’ll ever use all of them, but that doesn’t stop me from buying more. Is there a 12-step program for nail polish addicts?

I feel the same way. I had to add a fourth nail polish rack to my closet recently. But I am taking this month anyway…

Has anyone been able to skip? I’ve skipped successfully before, but I can’t find the option this month.

Go to your box, click Edit Your Box Details (something like that – the button was sort of toward the bottom of the page when viewing your curated box) and the option is in there.

Skipping this month. Not digging the new colors too much and I have a ton of polish I haven’t used yet! My husband was questioning me the other day about why I had 5 new bottles sitting on the dresser beside the other 50 or so almost full bottles! Nail polish is addicting!

Pass. Only interested in the facial milk (VERY interested in it!)…but new product prices always go down after the first month…

I switched the colors i this box. I didn’t much like the combination. I’m new to this subscription. so far i love it. Everything that I have gotten so far has been of the best quality and my boyfriend loves that I’m wearing polish now lol.

I’ve been feeling a little over Julep lately. I have tons of their polish that is just sitting unopened.

Normally I love Julep, but even a free topcoat doesn’t lure me in with the hideous color selection this month.

Swapped out all of my colors. I like the look of the matte metallics, and am a huge fan of the stardust finish! I’m afraid of the facial milk because coconut oil has a comedogenic rating of 4, but I am looking forward to trying the cream blush in its place!

I switched it up for the first time, I wasn’t feeling the Boho Glam box, not a fan of gold polish. I went with Classic with a Twist, these colors are much more me! I do love the metallic matte!

I got the restorative facial serum/oil and Linnea. The ingredients sound good for the restorative facial serum/oil. I always try the face stuff on my neck or inner wrist first. This month is looking good 😉

Going with an all-polish box this month. Don’t want to use oils on my face — have had very bad luck with that in the past. Swapped out all my colors because their defaults for me were just not what I am looking for. Never got an email about customization this month so thanks for this post!
