FWIW, I guess I’m the only one that got the exact same bag and items as MSA (Abby).

The lipstick/gloss duo is GORGEOUS and although the palette is mini, it’s great too. I’m not a blogger or influencer or anything, so not sure why I lucked out. I did buy some other full size products in addition so maybe they upgraded me? Anyway, bag, mascara, and lip crayon are on swap site if anyone is interested.

I got my box today (actually I think it may have come Sat but I checked the mail too early) – I did end up with this exact combo! (Very happy I got the sparkly bag and not a branded one.) I doubt the pink liner and lip duo will work for me, though, so I may have to gift those. The promo code I used for it got me 20% off plus a mini liquid lip in goals, and I think that color will work for me better.

I almost bought this so had to come and read the comments. I would be very unhappy as well if the bag was counted as one of the items AND it is not the bag sent to bloggers. I agree this mystery bag should’ve been about $20.

I got the purple canvas bag, a different from Liz but still a bright pink lip liner, lipstick in cartwheel (very pale pink gloss & peachy lipstick), same mascara, & the tease palette. Not worth it. A $1 cheapo canvas bag counted as one of the items? Rip off. Never again

Glad I ended up not getting this. I had a bad feeling about it and went with my intuition…whew!

I love Lifted. I wish there was an option for black! I’d pay full price for it in a heartbeat!

I was terribly disappointed w/ this bag. What I received was a nude color lip product, a purple lip liner, brown mascara, the Tease pallete & a Tarte Branded bag. Oh & did I mention the eye shadow was only item in its packaging. So I decided to send Tarte a FB msg stating my displeasure. Tarte responded with; they will be issuing me a full refund & threw in a 30% discount code on my next purchase. Although I wasn’t happy, I didn’t expect a full refund because let’s face it “mystery” is just that & we take our chances with those types of purchases.

I purchased this and it was a waste of $35. 4 clearance items were inside of a very thin purple bag. I received the mini brown palette (tease), the same mascara, a very light lip color (coral?) and a very dark pink lip liner (magic wand). The items matched in no way. They also claimed that the products would be full size. That palette is far from full size. I truly expected a special “birthday box”, not a clearance “mini haul”.

Since this “incident”, I was looking at the H2O mini gloss set and I realized Tarte is misleading us in many ways. A rep told me the minis are 1/4 of the normal size. The full size is $19 per tube. That would make each mini $4.75 each. There are 9 tubes in the “kit”, so it’s worth $42.75 and being sold for $39. Why do they have a sticker on the kit saying it has a value of $72?!! Why would they flat out lie? I’m a huge fan of Tarte, but I think it’s time for me to move on. I’m not going to spend money on a company that’s going to purposely mislead customers.

I got a more purple pallet and a man eater mascara. Happy with those. Purple lipliner and baby poop colored lip duo…..

Agree with nearly everyone else that the colors I received in the lip products weren’t pretty (like the ‘important’ people got) and my bag was an ugly purple canvas thing. The eyeshadow is really the only usable item I received making this “surprise” not at all worth it.

I didn’t get that bag. I got a tarte branded bag, the hot pink lip pencil, a horrible nude lip duo (I would have loved the color you got), the same mascara and same eye shadow palette. Honestly, it was not worth $35. I like only the eye palette and the mascara. I do combine the lip pencil with the nude lip duo. Also, I think a bag should not count as one of the 5 full sized products. I would not get another mystery bag again from them Also, I wonder if they sent a special one to Liz.

Same disappointment as almost everyone else. Shadow and mascara were nice, but everything else seemed bargain bin. Purple lip liner, brown lipstick, and tarte-branded gold bag. It bothers me that companies think it’s okay to send better items to influencers.

Did anyone get the teal bag? If not..sounds shady…..

I got the Purple Lip Liner, which Sucked! I will never use it!!! Then got brown mascara that I will pass on to someone else. Wasn’t to happy with it!!!

I received the the same as everyone is posting—i was a tad disappointed, but that is the gamble right? I am excited to still try lifted (which i almost got in the FFF edit) tho i heard it isnt as sweat proof as it could be (i am still looking for the HG of mascara for me—stupid oily lids/long lashes!

I know i will be able to use (or gift to one of my Sis-in-laws) the eyeshadow—Im all about pretty will some “oooph”

I did order this with the discount so the pain isnt as bad. live and learn!

I also received the purple bag. The bag Liz received would have made this a little less lackluster, but it was still absolutely not worth $35. Not a single of their popular/hero items. I will not be purchasing items like this from Tarte again.

I got a purple Tarte branded canvas bag, bright red lip liner, shimmery lignt pink lip duo and the same palette/mascara. Wish the liner matched the lip product at all but 🤷‍♀️.

This is not the same box I received. Although all the products are the same, I received a Tarte branded bag, a flesh colored lip sculptor and a bright purple lip pencil. Aside from the eye shadow, I feel like the colors I received were, indeed, clearance items. Very disappointed.

I didn’t love the box. Maybe due to variations. My bag was simple purple canvas (LOVE the one you got) and the lippie was a nude-ish frosted color that didn’t really suit me. I would have been more forgiving if the price point was $20 or less.

I loved everything on this box. It was worth every penny!
