eSalon Full Review - January 2016 + Discount

eSalon was "developed by renowned master colorists, built on their expertise and years of experience in top salons." They are the ONLY at-home custom color subscription box with their Made For You box.

"eSalon was inspired by the idea that beautiful, quality hair color can be accessible without the uncertainties of retail products and the excessive expense of salons.

They take into account natural hair color, amount of gray hair, previous color applications, hair texture and condition, desired color, and other variables, so you get custom formulated hair color that you could never get off the shelf. There are literally thousands of color possibilities available, and eSalon can provide the best match with a hair color formula and Personalized Instructions customized for each individual client.

The patent-pending technology enables individual customization on a large scale. Their hair colors are not pre-stocked. Every order is custom blended, bottled and packaged, then sent to the client as soon as it's completed."

"With The Match-Up, you’ll conveniently receive 3 products bundled in a collectible travel bag every month. Mix and match hair care essentials, styling saviors and favorites in brows and accessories.

Enjoy 3 must-have products for just $30 per month. Save up to 45% off regular retail prices. Choose your own or let their experts make tailored recommendations for you. Add up to 2 additional bonus items for 25% off each.

You can also control your Match-Up by modifying your ship date or adjusting the frequency of deliveries to a 4, 5 or 6 week schedule.

Also enjoy the freedom to skip any month you like, or turn off the program at any time within your account.

They know everyone is different, so they're here to look after your individual needs. Some months you may know exactly what you want; whereas on others, prefer to delight in the element of surprise by having their experts recommend matches just for you.

You have the freedom to choose between shopping modes; select your own matches in Manual, or have experts recommend products for you in Discover.

Manual allows you to personally mix and match your own products every month.

Discover sees their expert matchmakers make tailored product suggestions every month based on your individual hair care needs and styling habits. (They could even suggest a product you’d never think of choosing yourself—and it may just end up being your favorite!)

They believe that you (and your hair!) will fall in love with all of your matches, however if for any reason you’re not 100% satisfied they’ll gladly replace your product or refund your purchase—anytime!"

After researching and speaking with an amazing customer service representative, Courtney, we decided I would review The Match Up because their Made For You box does not send color lighter than your natural color. I am naturally a medium brown but do my hair blonde so this was not a fit for me. That being said, I completely understand why they do that as going lighter than your natural color should really be done by a professional because a lot of times it can go very badly if you attempt to do it by yourself.

I was then sent The Match♡Up box at a discount for review. It shipped super fast! I believe I received a shipping notification within 1 to 2 days of placing my order and then received my box at home within 1 to 2 days of getting my shipping notification. I LOVE fast shipping!

The box was received in great shape and no damage. Inside of the box was a card tailored to me and what I ordered and a really nice cloth bag that contained all of the products that I had ordered.



The card also had a L♡ve note that said "Flyaways can be a huge winter annoyance. Tackle these wayward strands by spritzing an old toothbrush with hairspray and brushing down the problem zones." LOVE the tip! Thanks, eSalon!

My bag contained:

1 Coloring Tool Protective Cape - safeguards clothing from color drips (retails for $10)

1 Heart Lock It Color Safe Shampoo - gently cleanses with sulfate-free lather (retails for $15)

1 Love Unconditionally Color Safe Conditioner - nourishes, hydrates, protects and add shine (retails for $15)

1 Tinted Love Color Enhancing Treatment - maintains vibrant, salon fresh color (retails for $15)

1 Professional Kit Coloring Tools - everything you need to color your hair like a professional (retails for $20)

Total value is $75 worth of product for $30 (50% off right now so you can get it for $15)!










The verdict...

This is truly a perfect sub box for any hair lover! Its value is way over the price you pay for it ($30 for $75+ worth of product). The shipping is lightning fast (2 days). The customer service is top notch (always there for you). The products look, smell, and feel great! This is a box you definitely won't regret subscribing to. Don't forget you can get it now at an even more fabulous price with 50% off at eSalon.com

Be sure to check out my unboxing and don't forget to subscribe so you're always in the loop for future unboxings/reviews.

Julep Maven January 2016 Box


January 2016 Julep Maven box

Julep Maven subscription box is a monthly nail/beauty box that can be completely customized to your needs.

Maven is totally flexible—you can customize your monthly box, send it to a friend, or even skip a month.

After your Welcome Box, the contents of your monthly Maven Box depend on the program you signed up for.

Each My Maven Box includes over $40 worth of new beauty innovations and/or limited-run nail colors. They create at least five new boxes every month—one for each Style Profile, plus monthly exclusives. If you have a fully customizable subscription, you can personalize your box by picking exactly what you want.

Each Maven Luxe Box includes over $60 worth of beauty products. They create one Maven Luxe Box per month, and all Maven Luxe subscribers have the option to customize.

All My Maven and Maven Luxe subscribers have the option to upgrade and/or add on to their boxes every month.

For new Mavens, they have two subscription tiers: My Maven and Maven Luxe.

With My Maven, you'll get $40+ worth of polish & product for $24.99/month, or $19.99/month with a three-month prepaid subscription. Each monthly box is completely customizable.

With Maven Luxe, you'll get $60+ worth of prestige products for $39.99/month, or $34.99/month with a three-month prepaid subscription. Each monthly box is completely customizable.

All Maven subscriptions include the option to "send to a friend" or cancel at any time. After you purchase your first monthly Maven Box, you'll also have the option to skip your box. Just select "Skip this month" during the monthly Maven Reveal and they will not bill you or ship that month's box.

The monthly Maven Reveal takes place from the 20th-24th of each month. They'll always start you off with their picks for you (for Mavens, this will be your default Style Profile; Maven Luxes will all start with the same curated box.) During the Reveal, you can log into your account and make changes. Or just leave it up to them to send you your next beauty fave.

I signed up on December 18th, 2015 for My Maven. They had an awesome promotion to get your first box free (you just pay shipping). They also had a promo code that would provide me with an extra free 4 piece kit. When you sign up they also give you some special deals on some add-on products for great prices. If you bought any of the add-ons, you got free shipping on your free first box and your additional products. I decided to try a beautiful eyeshadow palette for about $15.

They shipped my eyeshadow palette right away. I believe I received it by December 24th. The colors are stunning and I definitely scored by getting this for $15.







My January Box was shipped on the 30th or 31st of December and I received it January 2nd, 2016 so exceptional shipping speeds indeed.

The box contained:

1 Tali nail polish ($14 on their website)

1 Marika nail polish ($14 on their website)

1 Dusty Orchid Shimmer Full-Coverage Lip Crayon ($20 on their website)

Overall value of this box is $48 so definitely the $40 value they promise.

The Tali polish is categorized as "liquid holographic." It is not something I would normally wear as it's a shiny blue but it will be a good polish for my daughter. 

The Marika polish is categorized as "matte metallic." Again this isn't a color I would wear often. Maybe for going out or holidays. It's cute though and definitely a keeper. 

The Dusty Orchid lip crayon is soft and glides on perfectly. It smells like a nice chap stick. I have so many colors like this so I would have preferred a different color but will still keep it as it's a great crayon.



The Verdict...

The shipping and value of this box were spot on. The products were so-so for me personally. Keep in mind that you can completely customize your box to whatever products you like. I, myself, like to see how spot on the companies are that require me to take a quiz to "know what's for me" and send me the products they choose by my results. They may have missed the mark a little on this one but I'm still happy with my purchase from the palette alone.
