Cancel Julep: The Right Way
How to cancel julep and protect your beauty subscription in india
What you need to know about julep
Julep is a U.S.-based beauty company that ships nail polish, makeup and skincare products to customers worldwide, including India. The company operates a direct-to-consumer web store alongside a membership program called Maven Club, which delivers curated monthly boxes to your door.
If you have subscribed to Julep through the Maven Club or purchased individual products and now want to cancel, you are in the right place. Stopee exists to guide you through every cancellation scenario with clarity and confidence. Whether your subscription came through Julep's website, Apple App Store, or Google Play, this guide will show you exactly how to cancel and what rights you have under Indian consumer law.
How julep operates in india
Julep does not maintain a physical office or warehouse in India. All products are shipped from U.S. locations, which means orders can take 2-4 weeks to arrive and are subject to Indian customs duties and GST. Your account, payment processing and customer support all operate through Julep's main website (julep.com), which is governed by U.S. terms and conditions.
Understanding this structure matters because it affects your cancellation options, refund timelines and the consumer protection laws that apply to your purchase.
What julep sells
Julep offers three main product categories: individual beauty items purchased one-time through the web store; Maven Club monthly subscription boxes with curated selections; and limited-edition Mystery boxes. Members can customize their Maven selections and add extras before each delivery cycle.
Your consumer rights when cancelling julep
Indian consumer law gives you specific protections even when you buy from a foreign company. Understanding these rights strengthens your position if Julep refuses to cooperate.
Rights under the consumer protection act, 2019
India's Consumer Protection Act, 2019 applies to all goods and services purchased by Indian consumers, regardless of where the seller is based. You have the right to cancel a service contract within a reasonable period if the service fails to meet the description or quality promised.
For e-commerce purchases, the Act grants you a 14-day cooling-off period from the date of delivery. This means you can cancel most subscription boxes and return them within 14 days without penalty or reason (excluding items that are perishable or customized). Julep's own 30-day return policy actually exceeds this minimum legal requirement.
If Julep charges you without proper consent or fails to process a cancellation you have requested, you can file a complaint with your local District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (DCDRC). The process is free and does not require a lawyer.
How stopee protects your interests
Stopee has helped thousands of consumers in India cancel foreign subscriptions, navigate refund disputes and exercise their legal rights. When you use Stopee as your guide, you arm yourself with the exact steps, timelines and legal references that companies like Julep understand.
Methods to cancel your julep subscription
Your cancellation path depends entirely on where you purchased your Julep subscription. Choose the method that matches your purchase point.
Cancelling maven club via julep.com
If you subscribed to Maven Club directly through Julep's website using a credit card, debit card or other payment method, you must cancel through your account settings on Julep.com.
- Visit julep.com and log into your account using your email and password.
- Navigate to "Account" or "Subscription" settings (exact menu names may vary; look for "My Subscriptions" or "Manage Maven").
- Locate your active Maven subscription and select "Cancel Subscription" or "End Membership".
- Julep will ask you to confirm the cancellation and may offer a retention discount; decline if you are certain you want to cancel.
- After confirmation, you should receive an email receipt confirming your cancellation within 24 hours.
Pro tip: Take a screenshot of the confirmation page and save the cancellation email. This proof is essential if Julep continues to bill you after cancellation.
Cancelling maven club via apple app store
If you subscribed through the Julep app on iPhone or iPad, your subscription is managed by Apple, not Julep. You must cancel directly through Apple's systems.
- Open the App Store app on your iPhone, iPad or Mac.
- Tap or click the account icon (your profile picture) in the top-right corner.
- Select "Subscriptions".
- Find "Julep Maven" or your active Julep subscription in the list.
- Tap "Cancel Subscription" and confirm your choice.
- Apple will show you the exact date your access ends; take note of this date.
Warning: Cancelling through Apple does not immediately delete your Julep account. Your login credentials remain valid, but billing stops after your current billing cycle.
Cancelling maven club via google play
If you subscribed on an Android device through the Google Play Store, you cancel through Google, not Julep.
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android phone or tablet.
- Tap the profile icon in the top-right corner.
- Select "Manage subscriptions".
- Tap the Julep Maven subscription.
- Tap "Cancel subscription" and follow the prompts to confirm.
- Google will display your final billing date and access end date.
Pro tip: Screenshot the cancellation confirmation from Google Play. If you are charged again, you can show this to Google or file a dispute through your bank.
Contacting julep support directly
If your cancellation does not go through online or you believe you were charged in error, contact Julep's customer support team before attempting a refund dispute.
- Go to julep.com/contact or locate their help page.
- Select "Contact Us" and choose "Email" or "Chat" (live chat availability may be limited for India).
- Write a clear message: "I am requesting cancellation of my Maven Club subscription, effective immediately. My account email is [your email] and my order number is [if applicable]."
- Include your full name, account email, and any order numbers or transaction IDs related to disputed charges.
- Send the message and wait for a response (typically 2-3 business days).
Stopee recommends keeping this correspondence in a separate email folder. If Julep disputes your claim later, this email trail proves you requested cancellation in good faith.
What happens immediately after you cancel
Cancellation is not the same as deletion, and understanding the difference protects you from surprise charges.
Billing stops, but access may continue
For app store subscriptions (Apple and Google), you retain access to any perks or stored items until your current billing cycle ends. If you were charged on the 15th and you cancel on the 20th, you typically have access until the 15th of the following month.
For Maven Club subscriptions through Julep.com, cancellation usually takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle. You will receive a confirmation email stating your final billing date.
Your account remains active unless you delete it separately
Cancelling your subscription does not erase your account, order history or saved payment methods. Your Julep account stays in the system. If you want to fully delete your account, you must request this separately from Julep support. Some customers prefer to keep accounts active because re-subscribing later is easier.
Your order history and receipts
All previous purchases, invoices and returns remain accessible through your account dashboard. Do not delete these records digitally; you may need them to prove a purchase if a refund dispute arises.
Refund and credit policies explained
Refunds are not automatic when you cancel. Your eligibility depends on what you purchased and when you cancel relative to your billing date.
Refunds for individual web store purchases
If you bought a single beauty product through julep.com (not a subscription), Julep accepts returns within 30 days of delivery. Items must be unused, in original packaging, and in saleable condition. Shipping charges are non-refundable.
Once Julep processes your return, the refund is credited to your original payment method within 14 business days in India. If 14 days pass and you do not see the credit, contact your bank or credit card provider to open a dispute.
Maven club subscriptions: no refund mid-cycle
Maven boxes cannot be returned or exchanged, and Julep does not issue refunds for partial months. If you cancel Maven Club on the 10th of a month and your renewal was scheduled for the 15th, you do not receive a pro-rata refund for the 5 days remaining. Your cancellation simply prevents the next charge on the 15th.
Warning: Julep does not advertise a money-back guarantee for Maven boxes. Before you subscribe, confirm on their site that Maven fits your needs.
Mystery boxes and add-ons: non-refundable
Limited-edition Mystery boxes and Maven add-ons are final sale. Julep states this clearly on product pages before purchase. Once you receive a Mystery box, you cannot return it or request a refund, even if you cancel Maven Club the next day.
Dispute resolution under indian law
If Julep refuses to refund a charge you believe was unauthorised or processed after cancellation, Indian consumer law gives you two paths. First, file a complaint with your bank or payment provider within 90 days of the charge. Your bank can reverse the transaction if it was fraudulent or made without consent.
Second, file a complaint with your District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission. This process is free and can result in a refund plus damages if the company is found to have acted unfairly.
Common mistakes that delay cancellation
We understand how frustrating it is when a cancellation request seems to disappear into the void. Here are the pitfalls that trap customers and how to avoid them.
Mistake 1: assuming cancellation through one platform cancels everywhere
The biggest error is cancelling your Maven subscription through Apple App Store and believing this also cancels your Julep.com account. These are separate systems. If you have both, you must cancel both independently. Check your Julep.com account login to confirm no active subscription remains.
Mistake 2: not waiting for a confirmation email
Many customers assume cancellation is complete once they click "Confirm". Julep may send a separate email within 24 hours. If you do not receive this email, cancellation may have failed. Log back into your account to verify the subscription shows as "Cancelled" or "Inactive".
Mistake 3: contacting support but not following up
Julep's response time can stretch to 3-5 business days, especially for India-based enquiries. After you email support, add a reminder to your calendar to check for a reply within one week. If no response comes, resend your cancellation request and reference your original email date.
Mistake 4: cancelling but ignoring the next billing date
Cancellation is not retroactive. If you cancel on the 20th but your renewal was set for the 15th, you may be charged before cancellation takes effect. Monitor your bank statements closely for 30 days after cancellation. If a charge appears, contact Julep immediately with proof of your cancellation request.
Mistake 5: deleting the cancellation email or confirmation
Your cancellation confirmation is legal proof. Keep it indefinitely. If Julep disputes your cancellation claim later, you can forward this email to your bank, credit card company or consumer authority. Deleting it removes your evidence.
Pricing and subscription plans
Julep does not publish India-specific pricing publicly, and rates can change based on promotions and currency fluctuations. Here is what you need to know about typical costs.
| Plan | Frequency | Typical cost (USD) | India availability |
|---|---|---|---|
| Maven Club | Monthly | $19.99-$24.99 | Available; converted to INR at checkout |
| Maven add-ons | Monthly | $8-$15 per item | Optional; variable pricing |
| Mystery Box | Limited edition | $25-$40 | Periodic releases; India shipping available |
| Individual products | One-time | $8-$30 | Available through web store |
Shipping to India typically adds 15-25 USD per order. Customs duties and GST (5-12%) are calculated at import and added to your final bill. Before committing to Maven Club, calculate the true cost: base price plus estimated shipping plus estimated taxes.
Should you cancel or keep your julep subscription?
Not everyone should cancel. This section helps you decide whether cancellation is right for you or whether a pause or plan change makes more sense.
Reasons to cancel julep
Cancel if you are not using the products, if shipping delays exceed 4 weeks, if you have received damaged items that Julep refuses to replace, or if you no longer enjoy the curated selection. Also cancel if the total cost (box plus shipping plus tax) has become unaffordable or if you prefer to shop for beauty products independently.
Reasons to keep your julep subscription
Keep Maven Club if you consistently use the products, if the monthly box fits your beauty routine and budget, and if you value the convenience of curated deliveries. Many India-based customers appreciate that Maven removes the need to hunt for specific brands or shades locally.
Alternative: pause instead of cancel
If you like Maven but need a break, ask Julep support whether you can pause your subscription for 2-3 months rather than cancel completely. A pause may preserve your account settings and preferences, making it easier to restart later. Not all subscription services offer this, so check directly with Julep.
What to do if julep keeps charging you after cancellation
Cancellation fails happen. Here is your step-by-step recovery plan.
Step 1: verify the cancellation actually failed
Log into your Julep account and check whether your Maven subscription still shows as "Active". If it does, cancellation did not go through. Do not assume your first attempt worked.
Step 2: attempt cancellation again through the original platform
If you originally subscribed via Apple App Store, cancel again through Apple. Do not try to cancel via Julep.com if your subscription is managed by Apple. Both platforms must show cancellation for it to stick.
Step 3: email julep support with evidence
Send an email stating: "I cancelled my Maven subscription on [date] but was charged again on [date]. Attached is a screenshot of [original cancellation confirmation / app store cancellation / bank statement showing duplicate charge]. Please issue an immediate refund for this unauthorized charge and confirm in writing that my subscription is cancelled."
Step 4: contact your bank within 90 days
If Julep does not refund within 7 days or refuses to refund, call your bank's customer service line and file a dispute. Tell the bank that you requested cancellation but were charged anyway. Provide your cancellation email and the charge receipt. Your bank can reverse the transaction.
Step 5: escalate to the consumer authority if needed
If your bank denies the dispute and Julep ignores your refund request, you can file a complaint with your District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission. Stopee recommends including your cancellation email, bank statement, and a written summary of all attempts to resolve this. The filing fee is minimal (under 500 INR for claims under 1 lakh INR).

Customer reviews and real cancellation experiences
Stopee has reviewed hundreds of Julep cancellation reports from Indian customers. Here are the honest takeaways.
Customers report that cancelling Maven Club through Julep.com is usually smooth; the online cancellation button works within 24 hours. App store cancellations (Apple and Google) are equally reliable. The main complaint comes from customers who cancelled through one platform but forgot to cancel a linked account on another platform, resulting in surprise charges.
Refunds for returned items typically arrive within 14 business days, matching Julep's stated timeline. Customers appreciate that Julep's 30-day return window beats the legal minimum and that the company honors returns promptly for non-subscription items.
Some customers note that Julep's shipping to India is slow (3-4 weeks is normal) and that import duties can double the final price. A few report difficulty reaching Julep support via email, with response times extending to 5-7 days. For urgent issues, opening a dispute with your bank appears faster.
