I think I'm at the point where mystery boxes will be all dupes for me. I think the only thing I'm looking forward to is the full size hand cream. I can never remember the names of polishes I have so I won't know how many are dupes until they're in my hand... Looks like I might just be getting the monthly boxes from now on. That's fine with me, I'm so overloaded anyway!
Unfortuantely, I don't even think so ): I can't see the sizing from the pictures other people put up, but the lotion to bottle size ratio seems a lot smaller than what I think the full size hand creme is supposed to be...



I think they just changed the packaging for the mini

 
I ordered mine on Monday morning and as of today it's still processing.  I saw the 2-4 day shipping and figured it would be here by Friday at the latest, as I leave tomorrow to go home for Christmas.  Is this pretty typical of Julep?  It seems to me that 2-4 day shipping should mean that - not 4 days processing time alone!  I wanted to break a few of the items up for Christmas gifts.

wait, it's a mini sized hand cream??!?  What the eff... Not cool, Julep- not cool at all! Then there's no way it could add to the price they claim the box is worth (even using the inflated non-maven pricing)... the mini hand is not worth much & the luxe serum samples are just foil packets- those are worth zero!!

ggrrrr..... ok, now I'm cheesed off.

Aw boo! I thought because of the cap it was going to be full size. Oh well...

What's the weight on the hand cream? IIRC the full size that was in the boxes a few months ago was a small sized package, much smaller than what I would consider full size, but it was Julep's version of full size.

Edited to add: the weight they show on the full size on the site is 85g/3 oz, which is on the small side.

The weight on the mini is 1oz.    

 

Foil Packs, 1 oz tubes and even though I haven't opted into a Maven Box in months - duplicates.   

Have I mentioned how much I'm loving Square Hue?

Bleargh. I'm really, really glad I waffled on this one. I think I'm falling out of love with Julep, meh.

The thrill is gone my friend... now I have to decide if I am just going to leave them hanging or if I'm going to call them and break it off.   Breaking up is hard to do but I've found a newer, younger, and hipper company.

Signed up for this during black Friday With the free box (just pay shipping) and was super impressed. I am looking forward to January!
 
Got my mystery box and love it!  Skipped the last couple of months so got lots of goodies I didn't have, only 1 dupe!  I think that makes 3 Joanna's since I started Julep lol  Used the 30% code and did the add on for 25 bucks total.  Love this box!

 
I got my mystery box today too. I was happy with it. I paid 17.50 with the promo code and I got the 6 polishes, the 1 oz rock star hand creme, 4 foils if luxe repair serum, 1 oz mattifying face primer, full size lip gloss, and a full size eye liner with sharpener. Worth the money IMO.

I like the box. I love both of the New colors. But it is my third Nellie, third Faye and maybe third on the rest. I take most of the boxes with upgrade so I know I'm going to get dupes but I get suckered in on the mystery boxes.
 
Mystery box was sold out. So, I just bought a few things and used the POP30 code. I bought the Five Alive set, The Glitterati trio, Carly, Etta, and Morgan. Some of the stuff is for me. Some of it's for my mom.

 
I used my extras for teachers gifts. I put them in a cute pouch with some loccitaine hand lotion and candy. So those extras came to good use and they were all sealed. Just got my email to view January. I hope it's good if not skipping. I plan on only buying this I really want for the New Year.

 
I don't love all of the colors, but Jane was the only dupe for me and I will just gift it. I think it was a great deal.. I always love the mystery box for the most part.

 
I got an email from Julep saying they oversold the mystery box and credit back my card. What?!??!!! Well they are suppose to send me a voucher/code good for $25 as a consolation. I am really surprise since I ordered this the first day it was offered and they charged me that day too. Well thanks Julep for the voucher and my money back.

I ordered the first day too. And I already have mine. Why would they ware so long to ship out yours?

That's the same question I am asking. I sent them a message no response. I think it may have gotten over looked. I don't know because they charged my card the same day and sent an empty tracking.
