Julep Maven Subscription Changes
Julep Maven has made some changes to their subscription service. Members who signed up on or after December 18, 2013, will only get to skip once every 6 months. If you are new to Julep, Julep is a beauty/nail polish company. Every month, maven can choose between 5 different subscription boxes full of nail polish and other beauty items for $19.99 a month. Previous to the change, maven could skip any month they want.
From Jane at Julep Maven “Inspired by YOUR feedback, we’re working on a few improvements to our Maven program to allow you greater freedom and more options in your product selections. For instance, you may have noticed that we’ve already added a “Core Classics†option that enables you to restock your past favorites. This has been a really popular alternative choice and based on your great initial response, there are more enhancements like this in the works.
Everyone will still have the flexibility to try a new style, pick a “Core Classics†box, send to a friend, or cancel at any time. However, in order to make sure that we’re never out of stock on the fabulous new product offerings coming to Maven, we’re simplifying the skip feature for our new Mavens. Starting with the February Maven Box, new Mavens will have flexibility to earn a skip every six months. And, of course, if you’re currently a Maven who joined before December 18, 2013, you are “grandmothered†in to the original terms with no changes to your skip options.”
I am not sure if this is really an improvement to their subscription service. I love the ability to skip, but that being said, I don't think I have ever skipped. I love my Julep Maven box and am glad I am a subscriber. You get free shipping in their store and access to exclusive sales.
Does this announcement change your opinion of Julep? What do you think of the Julep Maven Subscription Changes?

I feel like this makes it more of a hassle for people who don’t want to subscribe every month. I am the exact opposite of you, I skip almost every month and every now and then decide to get a box when I really like what they have. Thankfully, I am grandfathered in to the old skip option. It looks like this will be more of a hassle for new subscribers with having to call to cancel and then re-subscribe when they do see a month they want. For new comers that won’t skip, it probably won’t even effect them though.
