julep maven november 2015 box

November’s Julep Maven theme was the Time for the Switch Up Collection. Julep Maven is Julep’s monthly beauty subscription – nails and more! This subscription is very neat because it’s customizable – swap out products and colors from a set box and choose from Julep’s best sellers, or choose a pre-curated box. I always prepay for 3 months – I save $5 per month that way!  If you’re not a subscriber, you can get a free welcome box for free, just pay $2.99 shipping. If you scroll down the page on these offers and choose the prepaid option you will get free shipping on the welcome box (and save $5). Julep is skippable so I really recommend it.

When I first saw this I thought to myself man, I really did switch it up. My second thought was why did I get Oxygen, I have like 4 bottles of it! I figured it out soon enough!

Everything in my box, including a caramel apple lollipop and the bonus topcoat!

Melody is the new shake it up topcoat that was a free bonus item in Maven boxes this month.

AHHH how cool! I can’t wait to wear this one!

I also got some Freedom Polymer Topcoat ($14.40) It dries hard and fast and I really like it, and needed more. This is apparently out of stock right now so I am really glad I picked up a bottle!

I also ordered Take a Breather – Sheer Shimmer Oxygen Nail Treatment ($14.40)! It’s the new Oxygen topcoat with a hint of shimmer. I didn’t do my nails last week and bit them as a result, so I cleaned them off and put this on right away.

It really is only just a shimmer, not a glitter. You can see how beaten up my hands and nails are. I need glycolic scrubs and butters and everything ASAP.

Finally,  What Your Skin Needs Restorative Facial Milk ($28) I wasn’t really sure what this product was all about, but Julep included a card explaining the benefits of this new product. I thought perhaps it was a non-oil serum but it’s a milky 5-oil blend

  1. Olive Oil keeps skin soft and supple
  2. Jojoba Oil heals skin and locks in hydration
  3. Argan Oil repairs and replenishes skin with essential fatty acids
  4. Coconut Oil calms skin with natural anti-inflammatory properties
  5. Squalane (plant derived) absorbs rapidly and helps the entire oil blend go deeper

I was a little confused about the cap over the dropper, but I think it’s to prevent the top from drying out. I put more than a couple drops on my skin and it was a bit sticky for a bit but then absorbed in a few seconds. I think this will be a great winter item for me.

    That Melody top coat looks like fun to me, too. My problem is deciding which thing to try first! I couldn’t resist the multi-color sparkly Janice , so I ended up adding onto my box – got Jo, Rashida, Eliana, the Janice/Linnea combo deal, Nicola, a Clean Slate polish corrector pen and a blush brush (having given up on ipsy ever sending me one, but goodness this is a huge brush!), and the free bonus top coat one. One of those polishes was apparently the bonus for adding 3 things – probably Eliana, since I’m unlikely to have chosen it myself. I’m old – navy blue nails aren’t really my thing. But maybe with the sparkly stuff on top, it wouldn’t be too bad…
