Lip Monthly Subscription Box Review + Coupon – July 2016

Question about the “3 free bags” offer- how does that work? Do you just get 3 extra bags? Does the sub run for 15 months? Or is that just the savings off the monthly bag price? Thanks!

I received the august bag today. For july i got the may bag and products. The august bag is white with blue and pink flowers. The info card was stuck to the inside of the bag and when i peeled it off it left some orange residue. I received seraphine lip and cheek stain $20, which is fuschia in the tube but it is translucent on the lip with a hint of color. It did not look good on my cheeks. It was very blotchy. If you use a very small amount it works fine. It is very hard to get off your finger though. Hikari lip and cheek stick $15, it is a fluorescent orange coral color. It looks good useing a very small amount and it blends well. Lord and berry lip liner in rose $10, i love this liner. It is a great color and it applies smoothly. Manna kadar priming lip crayon $24, it is a rose color and matches the lipliner really well. It has a matte finish and is very smooth while applying. It has great staying power. The total came to $69 which is good. I really am happy with the lip crayon and the liner. There was a nice variety of color this month. All 4 items were lip products but i think they need to start giving 5 items a month.

I believe when you use a coupon code to sign up, they usually send an old bag as your first bag which is why some people have gotten a different bag from the one posted here. Also, Lip Monthly used to be $10 a month for five full-size products. However, their price went up to $12.95 and they cut it down to four products. Hope this answers some questions/helps with the confusion.

I just got my August bag which oddly came in a plain brown envelope not the pretty shiny gold one as usual and I agree with everyone wish they wouldn’t put logo on bag so we could regift those because they are really piling up with ipsy bags too lol but other than that and love everything in it .
The Manna a Kadar lip crayon in Jádore (nudey pink) is awesome !!
Seraphine lip /cheek gel in bloom love it!
Hikari dual color stick in tawny ( which is yay finally a metallic bronze shade for lips cheeks also)
Lord & Berry lip liner in romantic blush which is georgeous !!??❤️

Last month, I received the May bag, which I already had. I contacted CS and they didn’t even apologize. They basically said “we messed up but we’re not going to fix it”. The bag I received this month is completely different from Nancy’s. Different bag, different products. I super ticked off.

I am so done with them.

My first bag is on the way. I subbed because they said that every August bag would have the new Manna Kadar lip crayon in it. If the bag comes and it’s an old bag, I’m cancelling. Too confusing.

i really like lip monthly, as an idea. As the current service, i’m just confused. I also received a different bag, the “August” bag according to the info card. I subscribed in July with the half off coupon, and received a bag that’s shipment label literally said “old inventory.” The bag I got in July was Mays’ bag. And I received August’s bag, while others are seemingly just getting their July bag. I’m just so confused on how their shipments work. I’m going to wait it out a bit, before I cancel, but right now I’m just like wha??

I don’t understand what Lip Monthly is doing. My first month was July but the bag had all the products from the May bag. It was the tulip bag with manna kandar lip stain, DLS lipstick, so susan jello shot and jorel parker face mask. The info card said july on it however. MSA reviewed that bag for may though. I still haven’t gotten augusts bag but i assume it will be the june bag and products. Why would they do that. It is confusing and annoying. I did like all the products i received in my July bag though. Anyone else getting the wrong bags?

Well I was thinking of getting this subscription but now that I’ve read all these reviews I don’t know??

I’ve been kind of interested in Lip Monthly and almost signed up a month or two ago but I find it a little strange that it’s advertised (on their website and here, as well as on other subs so I assume all reviewers were given the same info) that it’s 4 to 5 lip products plus one non-lip product a month. So bags should then have 5 or 6 items total… but I don’t think I’ve ever seen a review that wasn’t 3 lip products and 1 non-lip product. It seems like the value might be there some months but I wouldn’t sign up for something that advertises one thing and does another.

I got a completely different bag. Inside and out.

Thanks for the reviews!! Lip everything is my favorite so I though this box was for me. After reading reviews, I think I’ll pass. Im very fair and reds and bright pinks dont work on me. Too bad they dont let you give a color preference. I know you cant love evey shade/product in every bag but to have it be a continuing problem… no thanks!

My two favorite products were the shimmer, though mine was a reddish shade, and the plumper. It dried my lips out some but I always seem to have dry lips so I just used more lip balm. I liked the results well enough to continue use especially since it helps my lip products stay on better as well. I think both my lip shades were different as well. I do like the Mirabella and have been using it some but the City Color just isn’t for me. The shade is pretty but the quality is on a dollar store brand level in my opinion. So it went into my donation box along with the awful, in my opinion DLS lipstick I recieved in the May bag. Overall, I like Lip Monthly alright. The quality products they send out are pretty good. I would prefer not to have dollar store quality stuff mixed in but it happens. I had to take a break on a couple of subs due to a change in finances but I will more than likely continue my sub when finances start to improve.

I cancelled my subscription to Lip Monthly several months ago because I did not like the products or colors of the lip products a majority of the time. And I hate that they put their logo all over the bags because it looks tacky, especially if you want to gift them. I don’t know how they have stayed in business this long!

I usually enjoy this bag – my bf got it for me around a year ago. This month’s was disappointing because the City Color lipstick was the EXACT SAME PRODUCT AND SHADE that they sent just a few months ago -it’s bad enough to repeat products that soon, but there is ZERO EXCUSE TO SEND THE EXACT SAME COLOR too – they make other colors! This bag was also a miss since I hate glossy lips so the plumper is out too.

I appreciate the variety of brands but just wish the colors were more mixed or that we could choose preferences – for some reason this bag loves to send BRIGHT REDS and PINKS most of the time, so I already have tons of glosses and lipsticks in those shades. I’m getting very tired of their not sending a bigger variety of colors – they hardly ever send metallics or light pastels – now Matte LIGHT pastels are a HOT trend but we haven’t gotten one yet. It’s nice that they send wearable shades instead of blacks and blues, but all I get are bright orangey reds, or garish pink shades. I was one of the few people who didn’t mind when they did a matching gloss and lipstick recently, but I hated the color so having TWO of 4 items be in a granny pink color is not cool. The sub needs to mix up the colors big time – love getting Ofra liquid lipsticks and Ofra has the best variation but every color I’ve gotten from here was a dark brownish red that left me drooling over almost every other color but the ones I got. Where are the whiteish pinks, light lilacs, purples, and gorgeous beiges? 🙁

I was disappointed to receive a bag that was recycled from May. There was a lot of negative feedback for that on social media but they never addressed it and did not seem to care. I canceled my subscription due to that.
