June Julep Mystery Box !

Happy Monday Ya'll!

I was extra excited to see that my June Mystery box came from Julep!
 I am loving the deep purple.....very mysterious. :-)

 It came with three colors, a top coat, Daylight Defense Lip Balm and a emory board.


Here are the details on each. The color description are taken from the Julep site:

 Gayle: "Regal, deep aubergine creme. Sophisticated yet playful."
 Amy: "Smoky, turquoise creme."
This is such a pretty color! I actually almost put this as an add on for my June regular box. So glad now that I didn't!
 Januarly: "Retro, tomato red creme with a modern shine."
The indoor pic looks pinky but it really is a Red, like crayon Red. 
 Fast Dry Topcoat




This is my first mystery box and I am pretty happy with it.
 I like that it is a total surprise as to what you get.
The other cool thing is that you do not need to be a Julep Maven subscriber to get the mystery box!
Here is the site to get it for yourself.
Dont forget to use the code JUNEMYSTERY to get it for $19.99 instead of $60.00!

I hope you all have a great rest of your Monday!

  1. I just got mine today and it is similar to yours except for the colors of polish. I got Kelly a creamy shell pink, Taylor a royal blue color and Sofia, a sparkly green. I have never gotten a mystery box before. I thought you always got a limited edition color but I guess that everyone gets different things. Can you tell me if yours had seals on the bottles? Every polish I've received thus far has had a cellophane wrap on it, but three of these bottles (2 of the colors and the top coat) did not. Is that normal?

  2. I thought I read that too about the limited edition but maybe that's only select boxes? Who knows. All of mine except the top coat had a seal.I think the seals are newer cause in my intro and may box, there were no seals. I heard that the mystery boxes are like a way to use up colors that were in regular boxes from the past couple of months. Some people have claimed that they have gotten dupes from other boxes. I especially got the mystery one since I am new to Julep Maven and figures chances of a dupe are slim.

    I checked out the colors you got and you got some beauties!
    Do you think you will get another one when they offer it?

  3. I am new to the Maven program too, and I have read a ton about how cool the boxes are. I just joined and the June box was my first "real" box, my previous box in May was the penny box. I thought at first that everyone got the same color selections but I didn't realize that the penny boxes changed throughout the month. I have gotten some polishes that I really love, so much so that I think I am going to have to go back to acrylic nails so I can show them off. (I usually only paint my toes because I am sort of hopeless when it comes to painting my right hand and if I am trying something special I seem to mess it up.)

    I think that the mystery boxes are really exciting, and I would've probably picked some of these colors for myself. I was actually thinking about ordering the Sofia color with my free voucher from my last box so I was pleased to get it. I liked that I got another lip balm because I thought the flavor was nice and I always seem to lose them. If they keep offering mystery boxes I might have to get them in place of my monthly box. I'm not sure I can afford to keep getting both (plus I was suckered into getting the Claire turquoise color as an add on to the last box because I loved it but didn't want sunblock so much so I went with the It Girl box instead.) Between Birchbox, Julep and Eco Emi I'm going to go broke, but I just don't know how to quit them!

    I think you got some really nice shades too. I especially like the Gayle one. It is really pretty on I bet. I was kind of hoping they might put a magnetic one in although I guess that since they are so popular that wouldn't be something they'd be trying to push through stock of.

    I just started a blog - I'm really new at this whole thing, but I love beauty and the new subscription programs have me excited. If you want to check it out it is at http://thefinestdandelion.blogspot.com

    Thanks for all the info!

  4. The only subscription box thing I do us julep. I live how all nail related. I chose the it girl box cause it's always just polishes. I'm also glad that the lip balm was included. I like the minty flavor.
    Of course I'll check out your blog. I'm new to the whole blog thing. I'm having fun with it and like meeting fellow lovers of beauty stuff. ;-)
