The dark blue is listed as Kristy
I think kristy and lola are basically the same color. Only difference is kristy is a creme and lola is a satin

Looks like some polishes are getting the silver lid treatment.

Is this darks sale today's Halloween 'treat'? Julep hasn't got their FB page together- they still have no treat or trick listed for today.

Did everyone get the email about voting for what items will be in the secret store?? I didn't /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I actually ordered this months box. I skipped last month even though I loved the 2 colors because I didn't need another eyeliner. I got the It Girl box with Autumn as an add on. The geek in me got Autumn so I can doing fire-y nails for the Catching Fire premiere... not that I plan my nails around movies I'm going to see. That would be weird.

@susanleia I cannot wait for that movie to come out. I have already made plans to take my daughter and one of her friends. I think I will do their nails in some type of fire-y color. Weird- naw

You can still click on old trick or treat posts to get to today's. Today was a free bottle of Estelle with a $20 purchase.

There's only 20 minutes left but the code is FREETREAT.

Gah!  So sad I missed this.

Shouldn't they be on day six already? I checked last night and day five hadn't updated till late. And it doesn't look like six is updated yet.

Yeah this is what i meant.  I checked at 8pm last night or close to it and it still wouldn't let me click on 5.  I know how to get to the trick or treat page.

I find this to be super annoying an unprofessional, not to mention money losing on their part. I wouldn't have spent the $20 to get the free Estelle, but lots of people may have, and that's great for them- they are still making a lot more than they otherwise would by offering the sale.

You know I didn't get it, @stephstrong!  /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Heads up for those of you who don't already know this (but you probably do, you savvy ladies!) - the FIRST20 promo code appears to still be working. 

Also, I emailed Julep last week because I never received the promo for the free bottle of polish if you take 3 monthly boxes in a row (I have NEVER skipped a box), and they graciously sent me an offer code via email with an apology.

Cheers and Happy Sunday!

Confusing ,isn't it?  /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I've posted about this before so apologies to those who have already read this but I think it's helpful to understand.  It's because email service providers have their own spam protection systems in place.  So if an email looks suspicious (even if it really is harmless, like Julep's are), or if a sender has a bad sending reputation (they have sent lots of emails to bad addresses, so a lot of their messages bounce on a regular basis), email service providers may block some or all of the emails from ever even getting to your Inbox (or even to your Junk mail folder) because their messages get triggered as "Spam."  I think this is precisely why Julep has been having issues and why we sometimes get their emails and then we don't get others. 

Plus, they just switched from MailChimp to Emma for email service, too - so it's going to take a while for their IP address to be recognized as a "safe" sender with some email service providers.

Also, I should clarify that I did not get any email for the First20 promo - I just saw other MUTers posting about it.  I'm not sure where that one started!

Ironically enough, I just received this offer via email!

Ahhhh...... Interesting. Thanks so much for clarifying this because they don't arrive in my junk folder either. I was so confused, learn something new here each day!!!! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

When I had to call CS last month about a broken bottle, I talked to one of the Hannahs that works in CS and told her how my emails just seemed to quit coming at the first of September. She took down my email address and said she was going to send it to tech to make sure I was subscribed to all their emails. And I HAVE started getting promos from them again and I got my notice on the 20th that the Selection Window was open, plus confirmation email of my choices this month. So it might help to give them a call if you feel you are not getting all the emails that you see others posting on here.

In other thoughts, I got the October's best sellers promotional email, and clicked on it. On the list of best sellers is one of the items I am interested in but can never seem to find and that is their Quick Dry Drops. I don't even remember seeing them for sale or in stock last month (and they still show that way) so HOW did they end up on the October Bestsellers?

Am I crazy or do I remember Clinique saying that Black Honey was a trademarked name?
