Julep December Maven Box - BoHo Glam

Good afternoon all! Today I have the Julep December Maven box. I'm a little late on posting this, sorry! For the holidays, Julep put together boxes full of glittery polishes for the mavens. I stuck with my BoHo Glam box picks, because I want to see if I really fit that style choice (or vice versa).


 
Julep December Maven Box - Boho Glam (Jordan, Petra, Warming Foot Scrub, Peppermint Candy, DIY Ring)

 
Julep - Jordan
 
Jordan is a full coverage gunmetal multi sized glitter bomb. I was really surprised by this one. Full glitters are hit or miss with me, and darker ones are usually a miss, but I kinda dig this one. Despite it being packed with glitter, I had no application issues, it didn't get clumpy or anything. I do want to layer it next time, tho. I did 2 coats and got pretty good coverage, but I still think it would look bes with some undies. Dry time was good, especailly for Julep.
 
 
Julep - Petra
 
Petra is a cranberry crelly with a chunky silver shimmer. I am almost positive it's a dupe for Zoya Blaze minus the holo glass flecks. I will be posting a comparisson in a few days. Even tho it's a dupe, I like it. Perfect holiday color. 2 coats for full coverage, and dry time was a little longer, but not as long as the creams I got last month.
 
 
DIY Ring with Jordan
 
Along with the box, there was a fun littl DIY polish ring. I was so excited to play with it, that I didn't take pics before I put it together. Womp, Womp. But basically, it was a glass cabochon that you put polish on the bottom and put it in the ring base when it dries. I used Jordan, because I thought it would be super sparkley as a ring. I loved the way it came out & have worn it since. I think I need matching earrings now!
 
Overall, I am really pleased with this month's box, especially the ring addition! How fun!
