I received the Glam Bag X WITHOUT the bag also. The worse part is I have tried to work with customer service (email only ugh) and they copy and paste the same thing. I guess you have to pick the bag as one of your choices. Did anyone actually know that? I actually signed up on August 27 and they won’t even let me pick my items!!! This is the poorest customer service I have ever seen.

Anna

I received my Glam Bag X WITHOUT the bag! How is this a Glam BAG with no bag? Everything is in the box covered by styrofoam. HUH?

Angel

Did you pick the bag for one of your choice picks? It doesn’t come with a bag unless you use up one of your picks on it. This was to make the people who think the bags are a waste happy, yet still offer a bag as an option to those who want it.

Kristin Elderkin

This is by far the worst subscription box I’ve ever received. Not one thing matches my beauty profile. A HUGE WASTE OF MONEY! Unknown indie brands, or items that are new, with no reviews. This box is complete trash.

Eeyoreissues215

Um getting the Tatcha, Gliw Recupe, CT Lip liner. Herbivore, Tarte eye paint, Fenty mascara, Laneige lip mask and some kind of halsey liquid highlighter.

Makeup86

I quit because I actively do not want any Halsey product. The brand is new and I’m tired of being a guinea pig. I did see one person over 35 review an eyeshadow stick and she was so not impressed. Yeah, I’d love to try the Tatcha primer but I’m not gambling on it when I heard they’re will be 2 Halsey products. It’s been many years since I quit.

Cat Galea

Would be wonderful if reg bag would get sample of the Moonlight Crystal palette those shades are beautiful

Makeup86

I don’t know or care who Halsey is.

Lexie

Me either and her makeup is not the best at all. The about face makeup I received actually sucked pretty bad.

Tiffany Starr

Halsey did a poem/speech called “inconvenient woman” for Glamour. Look it up on YouTube, Definitely worth checking out. Halsey is a singer and also has her own Cosmetics company called about face. I know you said you don’t care LOL

Angel

There are some great $5 products in the world….but I sure as heck do not want to pay $55 for them lol I’d rather just spend my 5 dollars on the item itself.

Kristin Elderkin

The whole box is trash. Nothing you can even resell. I was robbed by ipsy.

Cat Galea

Same I don’t mind receiving samples and I am ok getting just $12 bag but it would be nice if the offered the same items as $25 or $50 bag but sample sizes

Andih

Agreed…I do ipsy to try the incredible brands that I wouldn’t spend 5-20. On. If I find a crazy priced item that 50. Or more and realize I can’t live without I will buy it in their shops for lower price points. Which I have before. Princess mascara is only 5.00 at Ulta. I will buy that but I’ve tried some incredible mascara that have 20-30 dollars. Would I pay 139. For 111 skin serum .I’m no way. Do I think their great yeah but I’d rather get em in my glam x or plus .

Gray K

Is the Aether Beauty palette so new that it hasn’t been released? I can’t find swatches or evidence that it even exists.. anywhere.

Krystin Kiley

This palette is a Halsey exclusive

Snow

I’ve seen it before it’s not a Halsey exclusive

Tiffany Starr

No it’s not a Halsey (about face) makeup item. He actually doesn’t have any eyeshadow palette. The eyeshadow palette is by Ather Beauty.

Kenley

I had never heard of this brand before. After doing some research on the company, I was impressed with their commitment to clean beauty. I decided to order the two eyeshadow quads off Sephora (they are on sale for $14 right now) and these are amazing quality with beautiful colors. I have been getting more into clean beauty and I’m excited i discovered this brand. I also ordered their highlighter and it is so stunning. I think I can be seen from space!!! This is definitely a new favorite brand of mine and I’m hoping I get that palette.

Makeup86

Clean beauty is a meaningless buzzword. Save your money for something with meaning.

Marion

Yes! 🙂

A few people have caught screencaps from various social media & shared them on r/Ipsy. It’s hard to tell exactly what the shades look like due to varied lighting + the possibility of filters. The best look at it I’ve seen is a video posted to the Ipsy Instagram account titled “Halsey’s Dreamy Eye How-To.”

Andih

I am truly excited about glow recipe , I’ve wanted to try their products forever. So I get that the box will be a hit. I’d also like the tacha, herbivore, CT lip liner, lip gloss, interested in the beauty blender option, and Dr Brandt eye creme. And of course mascara is a everyone guaranteed. Can’t wait till August my birthday month!!! 💗💗💗

Makeup86

The watermelon scent smells cheap to me but other people love it.

Andih

I’ve been trying to figure that out all along. Nothing adds up to 500.00 . People were complaining last bag that the everyone’s choice was 111 skin serum, but at least there was more of a chance to meet 500. There must gexanother product that’s worth 150.00 that the only way I see it adding up to 500. They haven’t shown beauty blender yet?? So who knows .

Kristin Elderkin

My bag was worth $250. And it’s trash.

Shanon

After my choices and an add on of the Bread oil I didn’t get to choose my glam bag x is worth $632 and I’m pretty happy with it.

Jacqueline

This one is only worth $350 :/

Beth

It says “could be worth up to $500”. Nowhere does it state every box is valued at $500. Reading is fundamental!

Snow

I think people get too hung up on the “value.” Are the items worth the $50 spent or not is really the heart of the matter.

Kim

I really want that palette! All i ever get in my other sub boxes seem to be reds and browns, no matter what i put in my profiles!!! Oh well. Im not gonna hold my breath. Great selection though…

AIDA

YUP, totally agree with you on the red and browns overload! I really want that palette as well since it’s one of the few that actually has COLORS. I share my boxes and bags with my 2 daughters and I gave the Modern Renaissance palette to the younger one since she hit pan on the one she bought some time ago. She loves it.

Nicole

Nope, not for me. The only thing I would be interested in is the Herbivore and there’s no guarantee I would even get it. This is far too make-up heavy for me and it’s make-up for people who aren’t 44. Don’t get me wrong, I love bright palettes and am definitely not a neutral gal, but all that highlighter…none of that would look flattering on me. Enjoy make-up lovers! Hopefully I will be able to get a spot on X again in the future.

Makeup86

I’m the same age as you and pretty makeup will still be pretty when I’m 100. I’m not giving up stuff just because I’ve seen more calendar pages than others.

Ranee'

Could not agree with you more,Nicole..I’ll be 60 Sunday June 27….and this box x is not for me…except for the skincare..so I’m skipping august…but, this would be a fun box if I was 20 something..

Meg

Girl I’m 28 and I don’t even want it! I know I won’t get the skincare I want. I never do.

Makeup86

Everything in the spoilers would look great on someone 60 if they were good at technique.

Kristin

Too funny I cancelled the X after the last one because I want make up and it was pretty much all skincare. I have tons of other subs that I get skincare, no makeup, from.

Rebecca

Things I really want: The Tatcha, the Glow Recipe mask and either of the Herbivore products. Things I’ll end up with: Mascara, highlighter, light lock powder, lip pencil, liquid lip balm, the Volition, Nue Co. and the bag.

Rachael

I can’t imagine not being interested in the volition product and wanting the herbivore or the glow recipe 🤣

KayKay

Hahahahahahaha!

Jeanine

Same

Amanda

I think they said everyone will get a highlighter. I updated my profile to say rarely to eyeshadow in the hopes I get the Tatcha instead of the palette. I also really want the glow recipe mask. Fingers crossed!

Prettypony

I signed up for the first time for this. I really want that palette. I hope I get it!

Megan

me too, and me too!

Wow this os an amazing box! When should I sign up to get this one? Im guessing after Julys box?

Shannon

I’d sign up now if you want off the waitlist.

Jody

I am in. I am really hoping for the Glow mask. That is currently my favorite brand.

JoJoB

What I think they mean (and this is 100% just a straight up guess-I literally have no info to base this on) is that these are the FULL SPOILERS as in “these are all the items we are going to SPOIL”. There are plenty of other items we won’t know about until the box is live but these are the only ones they will officially tell us about before then. Super confusing.

Jeanine

Yes!! I agree 💯

Kimberly

Ughhh.. I am on the fence. I really don’t want two highlighters and am afraid what the fillers will be! Of all of Halseys products, I love her lippies, was looking forward to trying other things. But really I don’t need Highlighter at all..I can already be seen from Space. But TWO in one box seems like overkill!!

Kimberly

There was an article released that said everyone got two Halsey items.

Meghan

Yea so that means they are giving us another product from About Face in the Glam X. Not a 2nd Highlighter.

Shannon

I think we will all get one or the other of the highlighters. But ya never know anymore lol.

Lindsay Kilpatrick

It’s one or the other, so you’ll only receive 1 of the highlighter formulas not both.

Carol

I like the products in this one a lot more than the previous versions, but I just cannot justify getting that many full-size products lol.

Jill

This is my first time doing GBX. So, will our three choices be from among these products? And then Ipsy picks the mascara and then other items? Or are Ipsy’s picks among these items, and our choices are of other items they haven’t shown? Or some mix of that? (I hope this makes some sort of sense!)

Marion

We won’t know for sure about most of them. The only item that’s guaranteed to be in every box so far is the mascara. In one of Halsey’s promos for Ipsy on Instagram, she did also specify that the CT lip liner & the Roen lip balm are Choice items. (The catch there is that not everyone is offered all the Choice items.)

Elaine

I believe they said everyone’s getting the mascara and a highlighter.
You won’t know until the 2nd when you make your choices other than above.

Katrina

I am so confused by this post title. Why does it say “Full Spoilers”? Are they no longer going to have the Laniege lip mask?

Makeup86

The Laniege lip mask just sits on top of your lips. A lip oil is better.

Nataliya

Those Laneige lip masks are available at TJMaxx for a few bucks. So if you don’t get it in the GBX (I never even saw the spoiler for a lip mask lol), you can always pick one up at TJ. And they have all the flavors.

Katrina

Thank you MSA for updating the title. Makes sense now. 🙂

Snow

These all look very nice! I knew my girl Halsey wouldn’t disappoint lol.

Jessica

I desperately want the glow recipe mask and if I can get it the entire box would be worth it to me. I’d also like the CT lipliner and an Herbivore oil, but the Glow Recipe mask is my top pick

Kenley

Hoping for the powdered highlighter, Tatcha, Glow Recipe, and Volition 🤞🏻
