I for one am extremely satisfied with my IPSY bags thus far. My daughter turned me on to the system and I have found great sales in the IPSY offer section. Not only are the bags reasonably priced the value provided is great. I am enjoying the tutorials and articles as well. I think the website is a fun place to go to see new looks and also hear the opinions of other IPSY subscribers. Thus far, I am enjoying my IPSY experience.

I can’t decide if I love it, or if I want to skip again and hope for better in the future. I skipped November, and started allure. But allure only has 1 makeup item per box so far so I miss Ipsy makeup. Not sure what to do.

Try Boxycharm! It’s a little more than Ipsy being $21/month, but you get some really great full size products!

I had a little extra money for a subscription box and decided to go with a second ipsy subscription. I can’t stand Birchbox never ever and Play hasn’t been doing it for me. I just feel like the value with ipsy is always there even if I’m not happy with the products. Any extras I get I plan on gifting for the holidays.
I did my profile the opposite of my original one so it will be interesting to see how much of a difference that makes.

This is so funny I did the same thing two weeks ago now my daughter wants a bag so I have to set up a third one. There is no waiting list so I’m ok with it. I’ve been on a waiting list two months and just decided to get a second ipsy bag it’s actually cheaper

Such a gorgeous bag!! I’m hoping for the Too Faced lippie and most definitely don’t want to see that dry shampoo again. It made my hair feel worse off than when it started.

What a pretty bag! I have received the Oribe and many brushes. I would LOVE to get the Tarte lip paint the most! I am so tired of nudes!

However the fun of Ipsy is in getting the beautiful shiny pink bag every month!

Beans

I’m about over nudes myself! I can only own so many lipsticks that are the same shade as my lips, you know? Crossing my fingers that there’s more bright colors on the horizon!@

Not satisfied the last few months, getting super repetitive products. Also, some not matching my skin tone and some just totally unwanted products!
Disappointed, will be cancelling the ipsy bag subscription soon

Dianne Chambers

well I got the dry shampoo in my November bag. I hope it doesn’t make an appearance in my December bag as well. I am hoping to get the Too Faced in hot mess. I have yet to receive a Too Faced product from Ipsy. Fingers crossed.

Loving this bag though < 3

You just took the words right away from me! Lol! Hoping for the Too Faced and the Brush!!!

Is it too much to hope for full size Too Faced since they have it for $10 at Sephora and Ulta right now??!!

New Ipsy rewards! Woohoo

Thanks for all the comments on getting an annual subscription vs month to month.
I’m still thinking 🤔 about it.

Is it just me or has ipsy been getting super repetitive? It seems like the majority of spoilers that come out are either products that have been sent out in past months in other colors (like this eyeshadow), leftovers from past months (like how basically everyone ended up getting the tarte mascara over the course of two months), or, of course, the ubiquitous neutrals (ALWAYS a ~blending~ brush, never other types, always black eyeliner or grey/purple nail polish).

Part of me just wants to skip every month for six months and hope for something completely different for my last few bags…

I agree

Lisa

Same.

JuJu

Too many blending brushes in beauty subscriptions across the board. I would be much happier to see literally any other kind of brush at this point.

Reply ButtonReply

Beth

It’s so weird! I’d genuinely just be curious about why. (Though I’m a super nerd and would be fascinated to know how the samples a brand sends are chosen. Do sub boxes give insight on what is most/least popular/standard, or do brands just decide what they want to send as samples and then find recipients? I know that sometimes it’s just excess stock or new products that they want to find customers for, but what about the rest?)

sunshine

Oh Wow! Those cooler colors are my thing! I’m so excited and hope to get that lipstick! I love the simple sparkles on the bag! It looks like it might be one of my new faves!

From what I can see of the actual bag itself, I’m liking the color. At $10, ipsy is always a good deal bc of the bag alone. I see their products aligning with a few of the other comparable boxes so, really I’ve probably had 2 “bad” bags in 19 months. That’s always family and swap!

Looks boring… but I’m very particular. November’s bold yellow bag was my favorite yet!

And I thought it was the ugliest bag I’ve gotten since I joined Ipsy over 2 years ago. lol! That’s why there are TONS of different products on the market. Different strokes for different folks.

JuJu

I wish I got the yellow one also! I received the blue.

Reply ButtonReply

T.Marie

Same here. And so many wanted the blue. I really wanted the yellow.

I’m loving this bag. I skipped this month to try allure, and I didn’t like the bag. But I may be getting both next month.

Did you get your first Allure box for $10 + tax? I followed the advice of other Allure subscribers & got the allure box for $10 for 4 months. Allure being $15 & most are used to paying $10 for Ipsy, Sephora, Birchbox & they have perks which Allure does not… Call Allure CS and tell them you are having a hard time justifying $15 after just one month… They will ask you if you would like to stay for the price of $10 for 4 months. It worked for me & I think I found the subs I’m happy with. Ipsy is still my favorite but I’m not going to give up my Allure either, even now that it will be $15 per month. Hope this helps save you a little $.

OT: does anybody know Ipsy’s return policy on the Ipsy Offers items? I emailed them about it (the items are unused) and they are taking much longer than usual to respond, I am starting to wonder if they ever will.

I pretty sure also you can not return anything but you might be able to swap thing with other people getting IPSY and get some things you want as a trade…🤗

From the Ipsy site:
“Can I return my ipsy Offer order?

Yes, you can! To receive a refund, your ipsy Offer order must arrive back at our warehouse in the condition you received it within 30 days from the date your package was delivered.

We cover return shipping costs, but a $5 restocking fee will be deducted from your final refund amount. If you’d like to make a return, please contact ipsyCare for a prepaid shipping label.”

JuJu

I just want to make sure it was clear: I wasn’t talking about the items in my regular Ipsy bag, but items I bought from them through Ipsy offers.

I’d rather just return (especially since the items were never opened), like you would with any makeup store, than deal with the hassle of swapping or trying to sell.

They still haven’t replied to my email. 🙁

Lisa

I am pretty sure you can’t return anything. If an item comes damaged they will replace however.

JuJu

Ooh, that’s too bad. 🙁
Thanks for the response, though.

i would be super happy if i got all those products shown. that would be a super awesome bag lol. still waiting on my bag for this month

Ahh!!! I canceled after October because I wanted to try out Allure and got the GB $10 deal, but I think I may be missing some of the best months! I really liked the November bag and that City Color shadow looks gorgeous! I got the gold one a few months back and I love the texture. Do they sell City Color in any stores? I don’t think I’ve seen it and I really don’t want to pay shipping to order a couple shadows from their site.

I just was at cvs and saw city color palettes

I signed up for Allure too but I’m super frugal. So I took the advice from other Allure subscribers. After getting my 1st box at the discount price of $10.00 + tax, I called CS and said I wasn’t sure I could still justify $15 a month for a beauty sub when I’m used to paying $10 per month for sephora & Ipsy + their perks, allure doesn’t have those so I’m thinking I might cancel…??? Boom! They will give you the $5 discount for 4 months. After December, I will be paying the $15 + tax for the allure box. I can justify it now. I’m down to Ipsy & Allure.

I’ve seen lots of their products in five below stores. I was surprised, but picked up a few things I really loved.

Thanks, all of those store are in my area. I don’t think I’ve seen any at Burlington, crossing my fingers they’re at 5 Below.

Amazon has this brand!

I heard 5 below does but they didn’t at the one I went to.

Try Burlington and Ross?

Carolann

Very cute bag! It screams winter.

I’d be happy with the Luxie brush and Too Faced liquid lip. Hopefully between my two bags I will get one of those.

I’d like to try the Smashbox eyeliner but I’m not a fan of black (I’m more of a brown liner kind of girl). I have two of the City Color shimmer shadows from past ipsy bags, on in green the other in brown. They’re nice and I wouldn’t mind a purple one.

Rosemary

This is probably a stupid question, but when did Ipsy stop allowing us to select an item? I just got the following reply to my product request for December, “We ended our product selection program, so we’re no longer accommodating requests for specific products.”
Although I really do like Ipsy, I think I may cancel now. It was the product request that was keeping me with them (I am not criticizing Ipsy…I really think they are fantastic for $10 a month).

stupidest thing they ever did, it was the 1 thing that set them apart from the other subscriptions to me

From what I heard they are working on another way to have something like that!

2 months ago was the last month for requests

Rosemary

Thank you. I didn’t realize that they had changed it. I really liked that option.

Lisa

I love the bag color! I hope I get the eye shadow. I was excited about the too faced lipstick until I saw the color! I even “tried” it on a picture of me at sephora.com .It looks just as bad as the colourpop in glam bag looks on me. I need to go on my profile I think I have berry checked!

Reply ButtonReply

Stephanie

Definitely a much cuter bag than last Decembers, that’s for sure! I think that furry pink bag was my least favorite bag I’ve ever received. It’s also nice to see Ipsy having a bit more variety in their makeup brands. I love that they’ve started including K Beauty products as well. The bags this past year have been really good, as a whole.

How do you get the survey??

Reply ButtonReply

Valeria

So I found out how everyone might be able to get to the survey (?) If you go to account, edit account settings, membership, manage membership, there will be an option called Improve Glam Bag Products…yesterday I was about to cancel so I selected “I’m not happy with product quality” and it took me to the 30 item list to pick from, yay or nay on. You can even change your answers. I was about to cancel but it told me I would not have my bonus item shipped and I was like REALLY?! So I am keeping for now.

Lisa

The problem is not everyone has that set up. Where you see membership most of us see subscription. Someone emailed Ipsy about this and they even said it was only for a select test group. I wish I had it but I don’t .
