IPSY Icon Box Reviews

I love everything that I received the my GBX!❤

I loved my Glam Bag X when it arrived! I’ve been with Ipsy for years. I feel like they follow my profile well. The few items that are not for me, I have no problem gifting. I think keeping an open mind for products/brands received is the key to fully enjoy this subscription.

I’ m pretty happy with my x bag. Glad I’m not getting the two step brow wax since I don’t have enough brow hair to wax. I use a pencil. Also glad I’m not getting dry shampoo.

I am really impressed for the launch. My box includes $329 in products excluding the addons, that's an 83% discount off of retail. I don't care about the Huda palette but I'll try it. I also got the Pat McGrath mascara, the Complex Culture tool, the Patrick Ta blush in pink, About Face matte lip in Take Aim, Beautystat Vit C serum, Tula Skincare eye balm, and the scrunchies. I added on Patrick Ta brow wax in dark brown, R+Co detox rinse, and Make Up Forever foundation. I think everyone got the mascara, the Huda palette, and either one of the Patrick Ta bushes or brow waxes. Complex Culture may be a house brand but so far I have loved every one of their items that I've received. I have no idea what a facial massager may do for me but I'll give it a try. I'm 52 so I'm fighting the good fight over the wrinkles.

I’m trying the glam plus box. I don’t like the “Refreshments” brand they send a lot. Products build up too and I have to skip as well.

Overall,I like Ipsy,but this box is ruining it for me.You do get your money’s worth.However,I’m left feeling like I’ve been toyed with.Ipsy is really good at drumming up excitement about who the curator is,but they don’t do a good job managing our expectations about what we’re going to get.This box should be mostly products from the curator or products they love that aren’t in regular rotation.This last one from Huda was half from her or products featured as being liked by her and the other half was products from regular rotation.By featured, I mean products we were told we might get,or products you had to try to zoom in on from a group photo,or products you had to guess might be included because she was posing with them in a photo.Huda has both makeup & skincare products.If there was ever a box to be almost completely from a curator,it was this one.Why feature Rare Beauty too?Couldn’t Selena be the next curator?And the bag is a pick and not included?I’ve paused my subscription…

I just paid for this bag- and no choices are allowed. Don't do it.

The first box was spectacular. Makeup artist Patrick Ta helped curate it and it had luxury items that I use constantly. This box is not $55. It's a $50 up charge on top of the $25 Ipsy plus. That's a $75 box. This means I better really love at least $150-200 worth of things before I even think it's a value. The second month was so terrible I immediately canceled. Curated by a Kardashian, they promised everyone a Charlotte Tilbury cream that no one got, sent everyone the wrong brow pen color, and filled it with all the wrong garbage. Social media is filled with complaints and I'm sad because the first one was fantastic. My choice options weren't for me and this is the third month I've been sent duplicates in both bags. They sent an apology of two samples and they were dupes of things I couldn't use. I'm now looking for a new sub box, but not boxycharm. They own that.

Pretty disappointed in this launch. I can look past getting another black mascara . But the About-Face liquid lipstick was like chalk, and went on flakey and splotchy, but still also managed to smear like grease! And the Sonic T-Bar Facial Massager is defective - the battery chamber is so small there is no way to get the battery in it. I tried from both the top and the bottom of the device, since it unscrews into 3 pieces. The only way to get the battery in is to twist it, and then it jams about 1/3 of the way in. It got to the point where I was worried about the battery breaking if I tried to force it any more. I don't know if I got a bad one but the item is totally useless. I liked the Huda palette and the Yensa eye cream, so I can't 1-star the whole box. Those items are nice. But I'm not going to continue with the upgrade if this is the quality that can be expected.

Huge waste of money and just very frustrated This bag couldn’t possibly be personalized I got dark brown hair I’m getting a blonde eyebrow marker, For 58.26 after tax. I got 8 items I’ll never use. What a joke. Stick with their $12 bag you get better items..stuff you might actually use. Don’t bother to complain they can’t or won’t do anything about it. When every item that was picked for you is on your rare list or doesn’t match to you. They told me to try the blonde eyebrow marker I might be surprised, yeah surprised I look like an idiot!
