Auugh.. I am so tempted to get one of the mystery boxes, but from the few pictures I've seen of the big box, I have colors VERY similar (or exactly the same) as the ones I've seen.. Does anyone know how long these will be offered for? I didn't see any end date on the website, and their facebook page doesn't even seem to talk about it at all! Maybe I'm blind

I think today is the last day. I got an email this morning. My box had the Paris trio, Annette, Vannessa, Gloria, Catherine, Evie, Maya, and Dianna. The Gloria is a dupe. I could have sworn Annette was to but I can't find it.Auugh..

Honestly, I think that may be the smarter decision. The prices for polishes in the sales and secret shop are usually between $7-9, so to me it seems a little more worth it to skip the mystery boxes and get something you know you'll use! I probably wouldn't have done it if I wasn't so new to buying Juleps. I've been skipping the monthly boxes, too (joined in June and didn't like the combos for July OR August, boo!), so I haven't had access to the secret shop but in the long run I think that's a smarter way to do it and then just scoop up the mystery products that people inevitably want to dump once the boxes are relased for cheap.

Thank you! I think I am going to pass. I REALLY want one, but I just think I should suck it up and wait for the maven box/next month's mystery

I just painted my daughters nails with Marion. It was wonderful. One coat would probably have been enough, but I like to do two. It went on beautifully, no problems, looks wonderful.
Then I painted my nails with Bette. OMG, how horrible! It's really thick, but the color is still sheer. Three coats in and it's still streaky!
The color is beautiful, but I will probably never use it again because the consistency is too hard to work with. I just don't have that much patience.

Marion was perfect for me, too! It's been on my toes for over a week & it is holding up well. I put Bette on my toes before that & it began flaking off in one day.

Too bad there's nothing new or interesting to spend money on! Might be a good deal on old maven boxes though. Sales are fun and all but I don't want a deal from Julep, I want them to dazzle me!i think this is the big news!!!right on julep.com

i.....couldn't help myself! 9 polishes add up to just over $100, then there's a $40 deduction for the sale, and then that is cut in half...four of these are dupes (angelina, esmeralda, adele) but i really love them and almost avoid using them because of that.

You got a great deal! If I weren't on a no-buy, I might be tempted, however...not going to go look, lol.Originally Posted by r4chel77 /img/forum/go_quote.gif

Best bang for you buck, I did the same thing but I am stocking up on darker/fall colors.Originally Posted by r4chel77 /img/forum/go_quote.gif

I might be brain dead ( ha-ha)
but how did you all get another 50% off? I understand the $40 off, the way I read it it's 20% off above that
