Indie Beauty Expo 2019 Limited Edition Box – Available Now!

Does anyone know when this box will be added to the swap site?

I kind of hope they do it with the other expos too. But I’m also afraid because it’s so much stuff. Haha. Sad thing is i would easily drop 225 again if i knew there would be differences due to expo locations.

I am interested in all the lip products in this box. I have a ton of hair products and massive amounts of other stuff to trade. For the past year/year 1/2 I have subscribed to beauty fix, margot elena, my meraki box, sunday reilly, play, allure, birchbox, boxycharm/luxe, causebox, ipsy/glambag plus, fabfitfun, look fantastic, pusheen, boxwalla, beauty heroes and more. I don’t subscribe to every box currently and some boxes have been for a few months instead of a year. The reason I haven’t listed anything is because I have soooo many to list that I am overwhelmed! I am really interested in this box in totality…anyone willing to part with anything, give me a shout!

Thank you Luna and JL for posting – my eyeballs are huge just reading about your unboxing experience and I’m super jealous. Teaches me to ignore IBE emails, lol.

When my box arrived most of the boxes were crushed. It makes it hard to regift them! Did anyone else have this problem?

Someone remind me about this next year!

Thanks Luna and JL!!!!!!!!! I would have loved this bag and all those goodies.

If anyone is on the swap boards and does not want their Nutrafol, let me know! There’s plenty i may not use in this bag so i’m happy to trade for the Nutrafol.

I got my box today!!! It took me almost 2 hours to unbox(!), and I’ve listed everything I received.

Some stats… (just because I’m a nerd like that):

Total Full Size Items: 40 (I didn’t count the sheet-type mask items as full size or include the hair ponytail thing or menstral cup; all full size items are marked with an *)
Total # of Skincare Products: 54

My box just arrived and OMG it is beyond epic! I’m just starting to unpack it and technically still “working” from home for another 2 hours so can’t go into great details, but it is absolutely loaded with full-size products of both skin care and makeup and lots of adorable little bags. All I can say is wow!

I’ve got a 21# package shipping from Yankee Publishing in New York. Delivery next Wednesday. It has to be this. I am so jazzed!

FYI: IBE updated the link, and it’s now saying the bag is sold out.

Luna, has this sold out already or has it not actually gone on sale yet? From the link, I don’t see a way to purchase it.

Darn, I had work to do and came back and it’s already sold out! Oh well, I guess I’ll snag that Gilt City Bombay & Cedar deal instead

Like the others, for $200 I want to see everything and 75 products or more is just too much imo.

If I was a newbie then I’d probably bite but I’m on month 3 of withdrawal as my stash was so plentiful. My addiction will start again next month.

I also bit. I was going to make it to the NYC expo this year but unfortunately that’s no longer an option! Ive purchased 2 of the past best in show and did have missing items on the first box. Customer service was lovely and and i feel certain that despite the disclaimer if someone does have an issue with their bag we’ll be able to resolve.

That said, what on earth am i going to do with that much product!

But 21.5 pounds even if they are good how do you use that much in the way of consumables? I think if they offered at least a $ value range that would help.

Look at it this way. It breaks down to 10 bucks a pound.

So. Right away I can see the biggest item pictured there is Quim Happy Clam, which… I found out is exactly what I thought it was after a quick Google. It’s CBD oil for your vag.

Definitely gonna skip this one. Since CBD is so trendy right now, it’s not worth the gamble to me of getting multiple CBD products.

Even if Luna purchased it, they bags don’t ship until next Wednesday, so she has no way of knowing what it contains. Plus, bags will vary.

I wish they took Paypal.

For this much money I want to see what I am getting. Better yet, I will save this money to pay for ticket for their show. I think it is better deal to go to their expo.

I know last year the contents were revealed. I wonder why they changed it to a mystery box?
