What is Ipsy?
Ipsy Glam Bag is a monthly makeup and beauty subscription box. Each month you receive a beauty bag and makeup products designed to fit your beauty profile. When you sign up for Ipsy, you take a beauty quiz that is used to help customize your Glam Bag. The quiz asks you about your skin tone, eye color, hair color, and what beauty brands you love. You can also select your favorite makeup, skincare, haircare, and nail care products. Your preferences are taken into account when creating your monthly Ipsy Glam Bag, Ipsy Glam Bag Plus, or Ipsy Glam Bag Ultimate. Ipsy releases spoilers for each bag and offer subscribers one choice item per bag. Subscribers also have access to add-ons - additional products you can have shipped with your Glam Bag.
