It's incredibly flattering & for some reason it reminds me a yellow mixed with vanilla. The formula kicks ass too. Not gross & streaky like most yellows--goes on evenly & opaque in 2 coats.

I know this is a little bit lighter than Lilou but it should still look okay on you nonetheless. & the Julep swatches are always deceiving haha so it may be a little more subdued in person.

That looks great on you!  I feel much better about my decision now, thank you!

 
Wow?? No 3rd box code,so now I'm definitely skipping! I've been trying to talk myself into liking the boxes enough to choose one since this would be my 3rd box in a row. Thanks to Julep, $20 saved!

You might want to go back and pick one if you really wanted that free polish code.  It is my understanding that they are indeed still sending the codes out this time around if this is your third box in a row.  They *will be* discontinuing the program, but not until after this round, and maybe not until after the April boxes.  I'm not sure we have a definite date, but we have several people who have been assured by Julep that they *will* get a code for a free polish since this will be their third box in a row.

Oh haha this isn't me. It's a swatch I Googled for reference; the actual person in the photo is credited underneath. But in either case, you're very welcome! Glad I could help. :)

  I really like the popcorn lip scrub by Lush. It's pretty amazing. Smells divine too.. like salted caramel popcorn.. yum!

I really like the Sara Happ lip scrubs. They're kind of expensive, though.  Temptalia.com has reviewed some scrubs that she bought on Etsy and liked, also.  I'll probably buy one of those when my Sara Happ is gone.

  This, exactly.  I want them to replace the incentives they've taken away with something as good as or better.  The new caps coming in May do not interest me at all.  I'm especially frustrated by the whole crowd-sourcing thing.  Julep: why are you crowd-sourcing $200,000 when investors just poured in $10 million?!

I'll stick around at least one more month (the April box).  That will be three months in a row getting a box, so I'll have "earned" a skip.  I'll also have enough Jules for a free box; that's if they keep crediting me incorrectly with 750 jules instead of 300 jules (I've never upgraded, but I'm not going to point that out to them.) April is also my birthday, so another 100 jules there.

I could cancel my Maven membership and just use codes to buy colors that I want at prices lower than the monthly box.  Grr!

Gah, don't tell me these things! Lol

It's going to be available to everyone once the Secret Store closes.  Why spend $20 just to access a nail polish 3 days early?

No problem.  I am planning to do the same thing.

 
Man I'm bummed right now... I complained on here the other day that my order was showing an estimated 11 days for delivery, which I thought was really long, but now I just checked my tracking and it's been pushed back to March 4 or 5! I don't like the way the tracking isn't showing me the route either, so I have no clue what's going on to make it take so darn long :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Am I wrong in thinking that 16-17 days for delivery is ridiculous?

I'm in NJ and it routinely takes 14 days from the day they are shipped for orders to reach me when they are shipped from Seattle since they started shipping DHL. It might be 18-19 from the day I order. Used to take 4-5 mail days. DHL is the pits.

I'm lucky enough to live on the west coast, and it will usually show my orders will delivered a few days later than in actuality. Right now my order is at 12 business days though. It's pretty ridiculous when at time of order it lists 5-10 days. Even if it's just counting business days, it shouldn't take that long. I don't know how many times I've ordered something and it will sit at some DHL center for days.

I feel the same way! You are definitely not wrong. I used to get my boxes within 3-4 days of them being shipped. Now, I am still waiting on my February mystery boxes and it has been two weeks! It says they will arrive Monday, but I'm no longer even excited after seeing the spoilers

 But I with they wouldn't use DHL. I hate to be a complainer but this takes away one of the reasons I chose Julep.

I just had a Julep order arrive 21 days after I ordered it.  I was not impressed.

 I just emailed them directly. I hope I get a response before the 24th. I will definitely post the reply when and if I get it. 
Ok I know they are getting rid of the free polish code for taking three boxes, but someone posted that that may not happen until April according to Juleps Facebook reply. I emailed them on Friday but have not heard back. March would only be my second month in a row, but I would be willing to take it if it meant I could still get a free polish code after taking April. I wish I knew!!!!! If they don't email me back by tomorrow, I may have to call them. Although, I don't know what to believe anymore....

 
Just stumbled across these & thought I'd share! (will post as a spoiler for the sake of others not wanting to scroll through tons of photos against their will haha)

Boho Glam



Bombshell



Classic With A Twist



It Girl



Rae w/ Monaco (Color of the Year w/ Color of Spring 2014)



Tania w/ BG's Elisa



Tania w/ Bombshell's Monaco



Tania w/ CwaT's Soraphine



Tania w/ IG's Lizanne



 
I'm definitely excited about getting It Girl now! What do you think ladies?

& are my eyes broken or does Elisa have almost no shimmer in it? Even though it's supposed to be a "soft wisteria shimmer?"

Looks pretty sad when compared to Lizanne.

Yes, Elisa looks just like Simone which is why I wanted it.  I'm almost out of Simone which is probably my most used Julep.  I agree not very different or special, but at least they are colors I will like.

I guess Rae is already sold out, so if you selected it and you're waffleing don't take it out until you're sure. 


I saw on the MySubscriptionAddiction.com swap site this morning that someone has a brand new bottle of Simone up for trade. Just FYI since you like it so much :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
