Julep Mystery Boxes - Retail Value NOT What Promised!

OK. Julep was selling mystery boxes right before Christmas. The boxes were priced at 19.99 and were said to be valued at $60-$200. I bought a box for the fun of it, KNOWING I was getting the smallest box possible! I KNOW my own luck, so I was completely and one hundred percent ready and waiting for my 60.00 box. So you all know, there were NO 60.00 boxes.

I DID get the smallest box possible, but it was not even close to 60.00 value.




So far looks exciting, doesn't it?


The Lip Gloss is in the colour called Arousal. I will never use it, my mom already has it, so someone is getting it as a gift!


Close up of the colours!



And to show the difference in size from the full size scrubs and lotions to the ones in the box, here is the comparison!



Now as to pricing. Remember - This is the SMALLEST box you could get. No one got a box smaller than this!


TOTAL RETAIL OF THE 
SMALLEST BOX 
POSSIBLE - 93.00

Now, I didn't get the largest box possible, but many people posted pictures online. I "borrowed" and by borrowed I mean stole a picture of the largest box that has yet to be seen off of the Julep Facebook Page. Her name was Debbie! Lucky girl!!!


TOTAL RETAIL OF THE 
LARGEST BOX 
POSSIBLE - 218.00
(plus the pot of glitter!)

So, my big question, is why the heck are so many people grumbling and complaining on the facebook page for what they got? "Julep, you suck! You lied to us! You gave us MORE than we bargained for" ??? REALLY???

  2. I got the same sized box that you did, and I was THRILLED. There were three colors I probably wouldn't have chosen on my own, but I loved them all. I was so happy with the quantity for the low price tag!

  3. Did you post this on the page...I'm sure you did. I don't get it either. People really need to get over it. I guess they were expecting all the color available for $19.99!!! Good Job!!!
