March Julep Maven Sneak Peak
There is a March Julep Maven Sneak Peek!
From the Julep Maven Blog ” Raise your hand if you’re over winter! Last Thursday, 49 of the 50 states had at least some snow on the ground. (Florida was the exception.) Compared to much of the country, Seattle’s winter has been a cakewalk…but that hasn’t stopped my lips from feeling (and showing) the effects of chilly wind and indoor heating.
Flakes, cracks, and dryness aren’t limited to cold weather—they can also be caused by too much sun, too little water, licking or chewing your lips, allergies, snoring, too much caffeine, salty foods, and even citrus fruit. Basically, we all need to take care of our mouths all the time.
Fortunately, this month’s Modern Beauty box is like a care package for your lips. We’ve assembled two ingredient dream teams to give them the TLC they need and deserve.
All Modern Beauty boxes will contain the new Buff Lip Scrub and Luxe Lip- luxury! They will also be available for add ons to the other boxes.
Buff Lip Scrub
This nourishing sugar scrub eliminates those pesky little skin flakes—just wipe on and tissue off. Vitamins E & B5 dive deep to heal, moisturize, and protect while shea butter nourishes, conditions, and smooths to improve the texture of your lips. Toss the convenient twist-click pen in your purse for easy on-the-go exfoliation.
Luxe Lip Conditioning Treatment
Luxe Lip Conditioning Treatment
From its cooling metal tip—designed to soothe dry, chapped lips and stimulate microcirculation—to its silky-smooth texture, this luxurious treatment sets a new bar for balm. Omega-rich pumpkin seed oil boosts lipids & helps retain elasticity. Shea butter, vitamin E, and other natural oils lock in hydration, enhance definition, fight collagen loss, and keep lips soft and supple.
I love lip products! They are my favorite beauty product, and I will be sure to get these. Don't forget the selection window opens Thursday! Julep is $19.99 a month and each month you pick between 5 style profiles, to pick the box you want. If you sign up now, you will only get to skip once every 6 months. If you are interested in trying Julep, you can click HERE and get a starter box for $3.99.

All at a cost that's less than if you bought the items individually. Each artisan sets their own prices and GlobeIn doesn't take a commission.
