I'm going to give my review and take on the January Julep Maven Box in which I choose the Modern Beauty box that contains only beauty products, no polish. I know what you're thinking: "3 months late!" -Well, I didn't want to just show the box, when I felt these products could have an impact on manicures in a big way. I wanted to be able to test them and actually give a full on review of them.
Products from Left to Right:
- Julep "Ta Da!" Quick Dry Drops
- Julep "Vanish" Cuticle Softener & Remover
- Julep Essential Cuticle Oil
Julep Ta Da! Quick Dry Drops: I can't say enough good things about this! I was skeptical about buying these. I had heard that the OPI one was not that effective and the Sally Hansen one had iffy reviews. This might not be essential to everyone out there, but if you're like most people who do not have a lot of time to spare in today's world and value your time then you'll want to pick this up. This stuff works within 2-3 minutes. Just drop on your nail after your final coat and they're dry in about 2 minutes. Retails for $14 or $11.20 if your'e a Maven.
Julep Vanish: Of the 3 products in the box, this has been my favorite and my life saver! I have horrible cuticles that are almost callus-like from my very hands-on job and it being winter/colder. This stuff actually does diminish your cuticles from the nail and makes them easier to push down. Just 1-3 drops on each nail is all that is needed. Then just push down with your cuticle pusher and you're done! Love it and helps free up time for me! Highly recommended. This retails for $18 or $14.40 if you're a Maven.
Julep Essential Cuticle Oil: Essentially, the name of the product says it all. This is an oil for your cuticles. I really like this. It comes in a rollerball form so it's not messy. I usually use this during the week, at night, and before I go to bed. I just roll the oil over my cuticles and let it sink in. For me, this is not something that's good to use during the day when you're working or running errands, because you need to give it time to sink into the skin. It's good for a little TLC though every night or when your cuticles need some love. I had already heard such great things about this product before it came to me, so I wasn't overly worried about the performance. This retails for $18 or $14.40 if you're a Maven.
