Great concept for nail polish addicts like me! I have been a monthly subscriber with Julep for over a year. If you saw my nail polish collection you would probably run, just like my last boyfriend did when he saw it. First of all, Julep works best when you use their base coat, top coat and their wand stick brush to apply the polish. The brushes in the bottle are too big and I find that I make a huge mess. I love using the wand because it is smaller. Second of all, I have fallen in love with many of their colors. One was black with glitter and had a "stardust" (matte) finish. I probably applied it only three dif times and that was the end of the bottle. This happens with a lot of their polishes. I am always running out of the base and top coats. Third of all, if you are a member-you can swap out polishes. If you don't like what they have for the month of October, you can go to their website and pick something else. You can also get free items by purchasing additional products, and you earn Jules Reward Points (which of course I have taken advantage of-and received A LOT of free nail polish). Fourth, I can never get the polish to stay perfect for longer than a week. To me, this is a good thing. Doing my nails is actually a calming technique I use when I am stressed (which happens to be more than the average person). So I like that I get to do my nails every week and experiment with different colors AND different finishes like "stardust" "shimmer" "pearl" or "chrome". I LOVE that the names of the polishes are actual FEMALE names-so if a friend's birthday is coming up, I always try to look for their name-and most of the time I can find it and purchase it! Overall-I am a huge fan. And on a side note-they don't just sell polish. Makeup, tools, cleansers, etc. However, I know I can't be a lifetime member. I getting more into gel polishes lately.
Can't go wrong with Julep. These polishes are so good!!!
Love these polishes, i have a few, and the colors are amazing, especially the glitter polishes
I have a love hate relationship with Julep nail polishes. I am not a monthly subscriber, so the price that I pay is typically $14 a bottle, and I would like to make clear that their bottle are a tad smaller in terms of mL than the average bottle of nail polish. The difference that I observe between Julep's polishes vs. OPI, Sally Hansen and the likes is that the latter group I find are usually a hit or miss, while with Julep I always get what I expect - good quality. That being said, I don't feel like the polish is any significant improvement over a 'hit' bottle from another brand. Color, shine, longevity, etc. are just as good as the best bottle of OPI. They supposedly have some special oxygen thing going on that's said to help with nail health, but I honestly have no idea what that's all about. They do have a good variety of interesting colors always coming out and if you're into this type of thing, a lot of the polishes are vegan/vegetarian and not tested on animals, which is clearly marked on each bottle, but I have received some that don't have such marking, and the site doesn't say. I have not tried a top or base coat from them before.
I do enjoy this nail polish but I have never been able to buy this polish in stores which is a huge downer. The nail polish goes on great and dries in a good amount of time. But I have always had to buy it online and then you have to pay shipping which isn't great.
i love julep polishes. They have different varieties of good colours.
I love the option colors. It dried pretty fast. And it's super shiny
great polish nails are shiny last a long time love the way they look
I like Julep polishes. Sure, some can be thick, but that isn't anything a little thinner won't fix. I usually get pretty good wear out of all the ones I have. They can be a little pricey if you aren't a maven, but they have coupons quite often.
Love juleps products. There nail polishes last forever. The colors are great and there are many of them to choose from. I get a box every month with great products. The shine is a high shine to.
I am addicted to julep products!!!
I tried Julep nail polish, it was a light shade of blue called Jessica, was not thrilled with it. After 2 coats its was still streaky. For the price its not the best product out there. It lasted about 5 days and then started to chip off. The color was nice though.
I love this polish! It dries quick, the color is not transparent like the cheaper ones and it is very durable! I am so rough with my hands, constantly washing and using sanitizer so polish always chipped so easily before but Julep lasts for weeks and still looks great!
I just tries my first Julep polish and I was very disappointed. I put three coats on and the polish looked so streaky that I had to take it off. I am still giving it three stars, as perhaps it was just that color and I will try the others soon.
This polish is really nice. It goes on smooth, the colors are vibrant and beautiful, and it is long lasting. The only down side is the price tag. I get two polishes and a beauty item in a Maven Box once a month for $20, but if you shop outside of that, it can get very pricey.
