The window just opened for Julep Maven selections for October, so I put this post together as quickly as I could so you could see what we have. 🙂 Halloween is always a fun month for nails and Julep has surprised us with two special boxes this month (in addition to the normal profiles) packed with polish and nail vinyls! There are also three new beauty products for the month, including two new variations on a popular item! Check them all out under the cut!

Night Shift Sleeping Mask

The first new product that Julep presented us with for the month is a sleeping mask that they say “melts powerful peptides with botanical extracts (including our Power Cell Complex™) to produce more collagen, lock in moisture, and stimulate cell turnover, giving a whole new meaning to sleep it off.” Ha.

Julep Lip Gloss in Splendid and Polished

Julep also added two new shades to their lip gloss lineup. Splendid is a “sheer heirloom rose shimmer” and Polished is “a sheer cameo pink.”

Now let’s look at actual the boxes:

You can see more information and swatches of all these products on the official Julep blog, as well as the full list of available products to swap in.

About the Julep Maven Program: The Julep Maven program costs $24.99 a month and is fully customizable, or you can pre-pay for 3 months and receive each box for $19.99. You can also upgrade to the Maven Luxe program for $39.99 a month ($34.99/mo if you pre-pay for 3 months) which entitles you to a fully customizable box plus one additional product per month.

Nothing has sold out yet, but since I selected my products only a couple hours after the window opened that might change in the future. Currently I’m picking up Ledi and Marla along with a Konjac Sponge (the beauty products weren’t speaking to me) and I added on the Black Cat Decals. It was a hard decision to make though so it might change in the next few days!

The selection window is open from now until the 24th at midnight, so if you want to get in to select, change or skip your box remember to do it soon!

Let me know what you think of the products this month! Thanks for visiting!
