Why I love being a Julep Maven.

I'm a true skeptic when it comes to "awesome deals" online. I read these deals in my head with that overzealous and cheese-ball "Guy Smiley" game show host voice. I'm always questioning a person or company's motives and doubting things I hear from customers. Yes, even the most satisfied customers. Call it smart shopping, call it paranoia, whatever it may be...

I recently embarked onto the Julep Maven train. A bunch of girlfriends and fellow bloggers of mine had been singing Julep's praises for about a year before I decided to give it a whirl.

Boy, am ever glad I did.

A friend of mine said it best today: Every time I get my monthly Julep package in the mail, even though I know it's coming, It's like my freaking birthday! I half-expect sirens to go off and glitter to shoot up in my face when opening the box...just to match my excitement.

Instead, I dance like the white fool I am.
Yeah, yeah!


Besides the fact that you have to treat yourself once in a while (and I'm definitely a person who forgets to do so), becoming a Julep Maven has tons of perks.

Why the polish is awesome:
  • First and foremost, Julep products are toxin-free and do not test on animals. Their products do not contain carcinogens such as DBP, toluene, formaldehyde or formaldehyde resin.
  • The polishes are long-lasting and chip-resistant.
  • Polishes come with a flat brush with micro-frayed brush hairs resulting in an impeccable application. (With some colours, I find that the initial application appears to be slightly streaky - however, after two coats and a clear top coat, kiss any possible streaks goodbye. Flawless nails, ladies. No jokes).
  • So. Many. Colours. Julep's colour wheel would put Joseph and his amazing technicolour shit coat to shame!
From classic colours to shades you would have never imagined; from neutrals to sparkles!

Why being a Julep Maven is awesome:
  • First of all, your intro box upon signing up costs you $0.01. Yep - one cent. A shiny (or rusty) penny. I'm not kidding.
  • After your intro box, for $19.99 a month (who sounds like Guy Smiley now?) you receive, at the very least, $40 worth of Julep products, if not more.
  • You receive 20% off of all purchases in the Julep Maven Boutique
  • Hello, FREE SHIPPING, just because you're a Maven! BOOM.
  • Bonus treats and extra discounts all year long.
  • Easy exchanges and returns.
  • Excellent customer service (I once had a bottle of polish break upon taking it out of the box. I contacted Julep and they sent me a new bottle straight away, without hassle!)
  • Here's an important one for me - no commitment. If I have to commit to rolling purchases for an extended period of time, I get freaked out. With Julep, you can cancel at any time and skip any month you'd like. Just let them know - it's that easy.
  • Upon becoming a Maven, you get a referral link. For ever two referral you receive a free month! Two referrals aren't very hard to get, let me tell you.

They say it all best themselves. Here is Julep's story.


So that's that - the reason for my constant Julep pimping on Facebook. It's not only for referrals, but for my genuine excitement about this company and their promising products.
