Julep Maven ~ January 2013

HAPPY NEW YEAR! I hope everyone’s New Year has started out fabulous. Here is this months quote from the card.

“Laugher is an instant vacation” ~ Milton Berle

This months theme is Escape & Unwind. It’s the Neons and Nudes Resort Collection. I almost skipped this month because I’m not into neon or nude shades. I love purple though and couldn’t resist!

 

 

 

 

Once again I opted out of my collection. I don’t even remember what it is anymore. I’m thankful that Julep is flexible and gives you a choice.

Here is January Bombshell:

BETTE: Electric neon purple creme. It’s lighter that the picture, but if you put enough coats on it’s pretty close.

AVA: Ballet slipper pink frost. It’s really pretty, but does not suite my Latina skin tone (in my opinion), so it’s going to a friend.

 

 

 

 

Extras!

I love the hand and cuticle stick! It’s formula is spot on; not too greasy yet super moisturizing! The quick-absorbing formula is made with shea butter and peptides, but no parabens or sulfates. I also love it’s compact size that makes it possible to just in my purse or work bag. It’s non-leaky as well.

The Twistbands are not new to me. (Not pictured. I gave them away before I took pictures.) I’ve received them in two other sample boxes. They are a cute and fabulous idea, but I have SUPER thick hair, they are too small.

The Swatch Me Stickers seem like they’d be messy. I’m not sure if I’m going to try them out.

 

Julep Maven (if you don’t know) is a fabulous subscription program. The salon is located in Seattle, WA. It is $19.99 a month, and you receive 2 nail colors and 1 product. At least a $40 value. I have built up quite a nail collection thanks to Julep.
