Julep Maven Subscription Box - June

Guess what came in the mail?  I am super excited for my Maven box this month because I added on a couple of things and I was happy with the colors for my profile.  Lets get right to it......

The first thing I see are some pixi stix - how fun! They were yanked out of my hand I handed those over to my son....
 

Next is the Boho Glam Selections........

Harlow on the left and Natalia on the right
Harlow is a gorgeous gold shimmer that changes from a pale gold to a deep gold with the light.  Harlow is a gorgeous copper/rose gold with a silver shimmer in it.  You can see the Swatch Me stickers below....  We also got an Oxygen Smoothing Base Coat.  I normally use the Orly Bonder but I'll give this a shot!  I can not wait to try these on, I love a good metallic polish!

 Now for my add ons!  I added two colors and a "Mystery" bombshell color

Left is Kayla, Middle is Mae (mystery color), Right is Phoebe

 I love all three of these colors.  The swatch for Kayla does not do it justice at all.  It is a duochrome purple/electric blue (see my previous blog here to see the swatch from Julep's website).  Mae was my mystery color, it is a Satin Finish which I am interested to try, it's not quite Matte, but definitely not shiny.  I've never worn a polish without some type of topcoat, but I'll give it a whirl!

Left is Kayla, Top Middle is Mae (mystery color), Right is Phoebe
 Now for the real surprise,  I also received these two colors in my box.  Not sure if everyone got some extra colors or if this was some type of mistake, either way - I'll take it!

Left is Marjorie and Right is Veronica

Marjorie is a bright orange with a sheen, not glittery, but a sheen, ya know?  It will be a nice accent color or maybe for fall on all my nails.  Veronica is a creamy salmony mauvey pink.  It's a good neutral if you have somewhere business like to go.

Well...that wraps up this month's maven box!  I am really happy with what I got.  I can't wait to start experimenting with these new colors!
