The Busy Giffs: My First Subscription Box: Julep

My First Subscription Box: Julep


I caved and bought my first subscription box!
Now my make up routine consists of the typical pink Covergirl mascara and E.L.F eyeliner.
If I need a boost a throw on some of this (4 year old) Marilyn Monroe Physician's Formula translucent powder and quick brush of a mark. blush. 
I'm pretty simple. so a make up box makes no sense.

I'm pregnant and super picky about my overweight frame and how much I'll spend on clothes so no clothing boxes.

That leaves nail polish.  I paint my nails, I won't out grown them and it's relatively inexpensive (especially when your first box is free), so I tried out Julep!

You start out by taking a survey and picking your favorite things so they can best match you to the colors.
When I took the quiz I got the "Classic with a Twist" but I literally already owned all of those colors, so I picked a different box instead! Easy peasy!

I ended up with the It Girl Box.


I just love the teal.

At 19.99 a month for over $40 worth of stuff, it's a deal but when you're used to spend 99 cents to 1.99 for a bottle of Sinful Color and splurging means picking up Essie at TJ Maxx for $4, it's not my cup of tea for pay more than $6 per bottle of polish.

If you're a polish junkie you might love it, but it's just not for me!
What other subscription box can you recommend for me to try?!
