I hadn’t gotten a Julep Mystery Box in a while, so when I saw the latest Julep Cupid’s Mystery Clutch, I decided it was time to go for one. This box was $24.99 and promised to include $100+ of beauty goods and nail color including the snowy heart glitter top coat Yuki (Classic with a Twist), and pink chevron glitter top coat va-va-Valentina (Bombshell)! I have tons of Julep polishes so I anticipated a few repeats, but I really liked the two colors they promised to include.
Julep ships via FedEx Smart Post. I ordered this box on the 4th (the day it was released) and it arrived today (the 7th). Not too bad at all.
The first look was lots of glitter! I could see a bunch of polishes sticking out under the clutch too, but obviously I couldn’t tell the colors of those.
Turns out there were more than just polishes under there! The Mystery Box actually contained five polishes plus the free polish I got with the coupon code (I opted for the January Birthstone polish).
~Glitter Clutch:This clutch is a great size and could hold a ton of things. I’m going to use it as a makeup bag or put it in my larger bag and instead of using it as a night-out clutch.
~Julep Jessie (Bombshell) ($11.20 / $14): Jessie is a “deep Kalamata crème”. I originally received it in my November 2014 Maven box and I have used it a few times already. It’s a great winter color and I will give it to a friend.
~Julep Margit (It Girl) ($11.20 / $14): Margit is a “mushroom with rose shimmer”. That makes it sound much less attractive than it is though. It’s not my favorite of the bunch, but it’s okay.
~Julep Myriam (Classic with a Twist) ($11.20 / $14): Myriam is a “Casino red crème” and I am shocked that I don’t have this one already. It’s fantastic. It looks like it’s from an older collection and I am thrilled it was in this box!
~Julep Valentina (Bombshell) ($11.20 / $14): Valentina is a pink chevron glitter top coat. Once I figure out what color to put under it as my base coat (hot pink or pale pink) this is going on my nails.
~Julep Yuki (Classic With A Twist) ($11.20 / $14): Yuki is a snowy heart glitter top coat. It’s just about perfect for Valentine’s Day.
~Julep Gel Eye Glider (Navy Smoke) ($12.80 / $16): I have a friend who adores Julep products so I will be giving this to her.
~Julep Lip Gloss (Posh) ($16 / $20): Another fantastic item in here! Julep has a great lip gloss (it’s not sticky at all and goes on very smooth) and this color is awesome.
All totaled I came up with a value of $84 (or $95.20 if you count the free Birthstone polish I received) for the Julep Cupid’s Mystery Clutch. I used Maven pricing when I did my calculation – had I used non-Maven pricing it would have been well over the promised $100 value! I am thrilled with this box and am so glad I went for it.
