Didn't like the julep at all , you get what you pay for. Doesn't last and doesn't have the best coverage

I loved Julep's lotions and skincare but I HATED their nail polishes. Which is such a shame because the color are so beautiful in the bottle. The consistency of the nail polish is very hit or miss. The metallic shades dry well but chip very easily. The regular colors take many coats to get the color to even look good and then it takes forever to dry between coats. It stays wet for well over an hour. Its really a shame because I was so excited to try it. Now I just have them collecting dust in my nail polish box.

i did not like this brand at all, normally i can use any kind of brand but this was a big no for me

I subscribed to the Julep monthly box when I received a promo code to get the first box for $0.01.
It seemed like a bad idea not to join with such an awesome deal. I mean, ONE PENNY?!

So, for those who don't know, Julep is a monthly subscription box. You create an account on the website,
www.julep.com
And take the style quiz so they can match polishes to your taste. Every month, you'll get an email with the choices that have been selected for you, and you can change the style, which'll give you different colors than you were emailed with, you can upgrade your box which will give you extra "goodies", or you can skip the month all together. I believe you have a 4 day window to skip the month, and if you do not, your credit card will automatically be charged whether you wanted the box or not.

In the monthly box you will receive 2 nail varnishes & some other product. It could be an eyeliner pencil, "quick dry drops" or even an eye shadow.

Now for how I feel about Julep.
In MY personal opinion, Julep is a pass. I found the varnishes to be really runny & if you had no idea there was such a thing as a nail polish base (like myself), you are likely to have the more intense colors (such as the teal in the middle) stain your nails after you try taking the stuff off. My nails were a nasty yellow-green for about 4 days after I took the stuff off.

As far as cancelling your subscription.. It's not as easy as they make it sound. They say you can email, but then IF they respond to the email, they give you the 1-800 number to call to cancel because they cannot process your request via email. Fine. So you call, and nobody answers. So you call again, and again, and again with a recording saying that the phone lines are too busy, leave a message and they'll get back to you. But they don't. Not until you leave an angry voicemail stating that you'll be contacting your credit card company to inform them that you are no longer allowed to take your money.

At first I was really excited because the colors were really pretty! So I figure it would look really nice. The colors that they sent couldn't really be put together.. I tried the purple and gold one on and it was so hard to get it to stick to my nail. It came as a big clump and wouldn't stick. After putting it all over, it looked horrible. I didn't really like the texture behind it and the way it was made. The colours were okay. Bottom line, I can get better nail polish at an other store that will work better, look better and at a cheaper price.

I became a "Maven" , but ended it because of the fact the nail polish always bubbles on the nails and I never had that with any polish before!!!
