My Briar Rose

After receiving my Golden Julep Maven box last week I had a hard time choosing what colour(s) to try first! I ended up doing Julep Marisa (a very pretty dark blue that I am in love with), with Julep Oscar (gold glitter bomb) accent nail. I'm still wearing this a week later and it's still going strong! A bit of tip wear but that's always normal for me. The glitter polish is amazing. That is two coats and it completely covers my nail! Removal might be a pain but that's why I did an accent nail first.

Julep Maven is having another $1 promotion! Fill out the quiz here: http://julep.com/?r=15549118 Then once you have your profile and are at the check out enter code: SHAREONFEB Your box will change from $19.99 to only $1. It's a great way to try out a monthly subscription box if you have been curious. They also allow you the flexibility to skip months and cancel if you decide the program isn't for you or you just don't have the funds to subscribe every month. They have amazing customer service (though sometimes slow) but they always make it right. I had a missing order from Jan that somehow never was shipped and they placed a new order really fast! They didn't even ask for the invoice or dates the order was placed (which I was prepared to have to give them). There are more perks as well if you are a member. You get a discount on nail polish purchases in the online store. Plus they will give you a free monthly box for every 2 people you refer to the maven program a

I got my Julep Maven February box in the mail today! It was FREE because I had enough referrals to get this months free. Wait until you see what showed up!! I was so shocked and surprised when I saw this: Man is this thing ever heavy for only having a few polish in it...hmm...Now after tearing into the wrapping and from seeing previous photos on Facebook I knew that a black box meant you got a regular box, while red meant you won a golden box!!! For those that don't know, Julep was giving out 100 "Golden" boxes this month to random Mavens that were getting a box. I happened to be one of those lucky 100! Look at all those goodies wrapped up in there! This box is seriously packed full of amazing things! At this point I am so anxious to tear into everything. First up: Julep Top Coat for hair! Now I'm not too excited about this one, but it was an extra bonus item in some of the boxes. If I didn't win this box I would have never chos

If you still haven't signed up to be a Maven here is your chance to get the first box for $1.00. Go here: http://julep.com/?r=15549118 Then after doing the quiz and finding out which profile you are, enter code: OSCARINTRO at checkout and it will bring the box price from $19.99 to $1.00. As always Mavens get free shipping even if you are Canadian! Hurry because I don't think the code will work for very long as it's a code special for the Oscars.

So I found another nail polish contest for all the nail polish lovers out there! Most of them are brands that we can't get in Canada either! http://www.prettypurplepolish.com/2012/01/50-follower-giveaway.html
