Julep Maven - February 2014 "It Girl" Box (purchased separately)

When the February Maven window opened, I wanted something that reminded me of Valentine's Day and the pink and purple colors of the Classic With a Twist box fit the bill.  And they are beautiful.  But when I looked at the It Girl box again, it just started screaming MARDI GRAS to me so I couldn't resist and logged onto Julep and bought it, too.  I love holiday polish colors!

Getting the box later did not come with Love which was a February bonus polish in everyone's box from Jane (founder/CEO).

The three polishes it came with are:
Glam Roc - midnight purple & gold stardust
Diamond Theory - full coverage multidimensional copper glitter
Roc Solid - vintage military crème

Here are some pics of the unboxing of the extra February box (It Girl):

If you are a Maven, you can purchase recent previous boxes in the Jule Box area of the shopping section of the website.  This is not the first time I have gone back for a box I have wanted.  ;)

Julep Maven - March 2014 "It Girl" Box

This month I went for the standard box from Julep Maven.  The box was $19.99 shipped. 

My profile shows me to be an It Girl, and that is definitely what I wanted this month.  I love monthly themes so I wanted a green for St. Patrick's Day.  Here is the screen shot I got when I ordered - Lizanne is described as a Sea green shimmer so I was sold!

The open box (OK, I might have moved the papers on top before snagging a pic) -

 

 When I opened the paper I could see the surprise lurking in the box - a candy stick!  Although my candy stick did lot look very yummy.  It was broken into many pieces (3 large pieces, many small pieces).

 

The 3 colors with the candy stick:

 

And the backs of the boxes:

 

 

The cards that were included in the box...the usual quote and flier of this month's collection and the ingredients for the candy stick (upper left corner).

 

Quote:"YOU KNOW ALL THOSE THINGS YOU'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO DO?  YOU SHOULD DO THEM."

The bottom so you can see the names of each color - Lizanne, Margaret, and Princess Grace.

 Overall, it's a pretty cute color collection - I am not disappointed.  The broken candy stick did leave something to be desired though.
