The product is real.  If you search the name on the Julep site, it says coming soon.

Meh. Unless the colors knock my socks off, another skip month for me.

sephora sells them for about $8-$10 or so and they work very well...i have thin nails and these are the only kind i can use

Also if they came out with a few different fragrances they could send out tiny samples in one of our monthly boxes and then in the next month we could pick which full size perfume we wanted to receive. That would be so totally ideal!

I would love that!

or fall in love with! For some strange reason I have a ton of sample size perfumes so I just use that everyday instead of buying a full size bottle. This way I usually have a different fragrance on everyday /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> saves me a lot of money this way!

Just got my first Intro Boho Glam box last month with two nail polish add-ons. I have about every color that OPI has made, but just loved the idea of getting something like this every month. So excited to see what is coming out for August. Already addicted!!!

It doesn't take but two months until you are a thorough junkie! We're all waiting to see a sneak of the August colors today ...... on an hour-by-hour countdown now instead of day-by-day! I'm killing time working on my hands and starting a new manicure.

Just a thought, won't this make your feet slippery? Or at least a bit moist. Do you apply it before you slip into your heels/running shoes or after you are done wearing shoes & have your feet up & are relaxing?

Either ways, I just have a feeling like you're going to have to put on socks when you apply something like this. & if you're wearing socks and then exercising your feet sweat so doesn't that defeat the purpose? 

I love Julep's foot products so I'm actually kinda excited. My mom has really bad cracks on her feet and the Best Pedi Prep and the foot file have really helped heal her cracks.

I'm wondering how the chili pepper oil will go over on my neuropathic diabetic feet?

eek didn't see that previous post.  guess I did not discover anything new

I want to see a sneak peek of the nail polish colors!!! Really hoping the boxes have some transitions into Fall colors. I am a little done with Summer.

Officially you will get a message from Julep that the Maven Window is open. It is open from the 20th-24th. During this time, you make decisions as to whether to get YOUR style box or another style box or switch styles just for that month or get everything. Plus, they have add-ons for a reasonable rate that you can - as the name says, add on - to your order. Then, if you get that month's box, the Secret Store opens on the Julep website for the first 72 hours of the month with great deals on other colors and sets and products.

Hope I am not repeating anyone else that has already answered this question.

I already have Band-Aid brand Friction Block, which is a semi-solid stick you rub on your feet anywhere your shoes are chafing.  It works great and it's super-cheap.  This is NOT the kind of product I want to spend big bucks for from Julep, when I have a drugstore cheapo version that works perfectly.  I look to Julep for a bit of glamor, not for workhorse near-medical-grade products.  Seriously, it makes sense to me that the version I have is a Band-Aid brand product, because it's like a liquid Band-Aid for preventing blisters.  I wouldn't want to buy band-aids from Julep either.

I use that Bandaid anti friction block. It's in a tiny blue case and cost me $8 at CVS. It works but its no fun.

I got mine a year or two ago for something like $6 for two.  A very quick look around the internet shows that drugstore.com has them at 1 for 5.99 right now.  Not as cheap as I paid, but still a hell of a lot better than $17-something or whatever Julep is going to charge.

I agree with you that it's no fun, but for the life of me I don't see how Julep's version of it will be any fun either.  Sure it's got chili pepper oil in it, but that doesn't sound like a load of fun to me either. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I have an OPI crystal nail file and I LOVE it! But you have to be careful or you will take away more than you meant too. I haven't tried the Julep crystal file, but plan to with my next order. ALL that said, though, I still reach for my Tweezerman large padded emery board at times.

Also a few ladies posted that Julep should make perfumes on their FB page a while back. What do you ladies think about this?

I think they should PERFECT what they are best at before expanding into other beauty products!

This is a pretty blah product for the anniversary box. Hoping for nice polishes!

Maybe the anniversary will be celebrated in the Mystery Box for August?

Thank you so much. Never heard about the Secret Store before. So excited. Hoping Oscar is back in stock soon. I knew I should have ordered it instead of adding it to my wishlist. Wanted it for the Fall.

I remember this being posted way back in February! Who knows, maybe this could finally be the month they are released in our boxes?

I doubt it since they were in the warehouse sale on clearance.

Just found out from reading the Julep FB page that we are supposed to get Jules on our birthday. June was my first Maven month and also my birthday month and I didn't get Jules. You are supposed to contact them at [email protected] if you didn't receive yours.
