Julep Maven Sea Salt Mystery Box

I have been very excited to receive my mystery box from Julep this month.  To the point of stalking the mailman.  I have been eating up the textured polishes that have been coming out all over the place.  I think my favorite is still the Zoya Pixie Dust, but I love the OPI Liquid Sand as well.  Texture AND Glitter?  Oh, you had me at texture!  So when Julep had their own texture polish in a mystery box, I said "SIGN ME UP!"  and have been anxiously awaiting that sucker to ship.
Mystery Boxes from Julep contain a range of product and have a feature product.  This one promised a range of product from $70 - $200 of product and one of the three Seal Salt Textured Nail Polishes.  It is a bit of a gamble if you are a monthly Julep Maven subscriber as you may get a duplicate color.  But, like any good surprise it is worth the risk.  This month, I received box version number 6.



Box 6 contained 5 nail polishes, toe separators, and a nail file. 


I did peek on Instagram to see what other people were receiving in their boxes.  Some contained 4 bottles of polish and hand creams or body scrub.  That would have been nice too.  :)

The 5th bottle of nail polish is a matte top coat...does not make for a very interesting picture. 

The only duplicate I received with the gold micro and hex glitter bottle, Vivien.  Claudette and Simone are both from the Classic with a Twist style profile from Julep.  Which is cool, because my default profile is It Girl and if I switch it tends to be Bombshell.   I don't think I have any nail polish from this profile.  I think I am going to like them.  Be on the look out for upcoming swatches of these nail polishes!

Have you ever ordered a Mystery Box from Julep?  Is it hit or miss?  Or always a great find in your mailbox?  At first, I thought it was a miss, but now I may be changing my mind....
