I love ipsy, and I usually get stuff I will use and like, they send me the bright pinks, and reds in lip colors, I don’t like them. But I don’t like the new way they have done the glam bag section on the ipsy site, not only is it aggravating to do anythung, we don’t get the 10 points anymore to see what’s in our bags. That is a bummer, we should still be able to share and get the points for it. But as long as they send me stuff I will use I’m good. It’s m6 favorite subscription I have, and I am a subscriber to ipsy, BB, glossybox, julep, sephora, and allure, I get the target boxes when they are avaiable and I like the products, aND the amazon when it’s available, oh and I get walmart beauty box. But this is my last mo the at birchbox. They changed the points system, so now we won’t get points for reviewing our products, and without being able to get points is a big bummer in my book.

Just in case anyone else has been lazy like me, you can go back for months and months and review your glam bag products. Right now, I’m working on November 2015. I thought they cut it off after a certain point. Go review while you can in case this is a mistake! You get up to 15 points per review that can be used to get free products!

How do you figure out what you are getting?

I cannot for the life of me figure out what I am getting with the new website. Can someone help me figure it out please? Thx

I had a hard time figuring it out as first also, but go to glam bag, and scroll down and your july bag contents should be past the tutorials. And at the top of the page there’s a white rectangle icon looks kinda like the shape of a make up bag and if you tap it, it will show your past bags. Hope this helps.

Thanks. I am not liking the new site.

I’m getting:
theBalm Eyeshadow
OFRA Lip Liner
Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré
tre’StiQue Mini Highlight Stick
Luxie Rose Gold Small Angle Eye Brush

This is my first month with ipsy and my first beauty subscription box. I am a dumb head when it comes to makeup and I thought ipsy would be a good choice because it is one of the cheapest options out there and I’ll get to try lots of products. I think for a first bag this isn’t that bad…. only thing I’m perplexed by is the brush. I told ipsy in the quiz I really don’t know that much about makeup and that brush seems like it should be for a makeup expert. Oh well not a big deal I’m sure I’ll find something to do with it.

Christina, you can use the angle eye brush to apply eyeliner. For a really cool trick, use a primer or setting spray to spray the brush and then dip it in your favorite powder eyeshadow to create a custom eyeliner 🙂

So, with their new site can you not view Previous months bags? I liked comparing them month to month :-/

You can, they just moved the “past glam bags” link. So this month look for the two girls standing together on the right side, one has a sailor hat on; its in that area. It is hard to see but there is a button for past glam bags. I know that sounds like a weird description but that’s where it is lol. You can only see your last 6 bags.

This may be the first time-I’m getting the same bag! The only item I’m sure to pass on is the pair of sheet masks. They always feel so slimy on and creep me out! :> I hope I get the plum shadow. I am really excited about that! And mauve lipcolor that smells like cake YUM!

I got the:

Trust Fund Beauty Nail Polish in No Filter

J. Cat Beauty Perfect Duo Brow Pencil in Dark Brown

Mellow cosmetics Baked Eyeshadow in Coco or Plum

Eva NYC Get Glossed! Hair Serum

Make Up Forever Excessive Lash

Im super happy about this months bag, I mean come on its a 10 dollar subscription, I totaled up the cost of the items, and it was AT LEAST 35+ dollars since I didn’t know the cost of the serum and mascara!

Well I don’t see any bag twins, so here’s mine:

The balm Eyeshadow – ok
Too faced primer – excited about this
Avene thermal spray – water in a can, hard to be excited about it
Embryollise – had this in a birchbox before and did like it, even if it’s a repeat it’s ok
Vasanti Eyeshadow brush – I never complain about brushes. Ever.

So it’s eh. Its not the worst. I just wish one of my samples wasn’t a can of water

The water is nice in summer. But I would never pay for it.

I am getting the following in my bag this month:

The balm eyeshadow
Too faced primer
Vasanti professional eyeshadow brush
Bellapierre banana setting powder
Not soap radio lemon lotion/hand cream

I am somewhat looking forward to this bag… I’m not sure how the use the setting powder though. Does anyone have any suggestions? I usually wear bare minerals primer, with their pressed powder foundation on top, then highlighter/bronzer/ etc. There aren’t any liquids involved besides the primer.

At which point during the routine should the setting powder go? Assuming it’s to color correct, would it go before the foundation? Or, assuming it’s to set, would it go after the foundation. I’m obviously clueless about this item, any help would be greatly appreciated.

I use Bare Minerals foundation too (the loose kind), and when I use setting powder, I usually use their Mineral Veil or powder samples from ipsy. 🙂 I would dust this on last to use it as a setting powder, but if this is is going to change the color of your foundation and is meant to color correct and set the under eye, I would put it on before the powder foundation.

Oh! That’s super helpful– thank you Sun!

I’m getting the Two Faced primer, a glass nail file (wtf?), the Trestique highlighter stick, the Embryolisse and the Mr. Write Now eyeliner. It’s none of what I wanted but also none of what I definitely did not want. I know I will use it all and will probably end up liking it but there’s no major excitement factor. I’m most looking forward to the highlight stick and trying out the Embryolisse as an eye makeup remover.

So disappointed. This is my last ipsy bag after 2 years of bags…. boo!!! Ipsy, it’s not me, it’s you~ I want to love you ipsy, but you just won’t listen to what I want. You think you know better than I do what will make me happy. I tell you every month that I’m not happy and you act as though you aren’t even listening to me. I have others who have asked for my love and now I will go and see if I am happier with them. Peace out!

Aw. What were you getting that you didn’t want? Did you review all the items? I almost quit too, but after 6 months I started finally getting bags I liked at least 4 items. I am pretty picky too. I won’t use silicone in my hair, don’t use dry shampoo, don’t look good in warm colors, and do not need more color in my brows. I also can’t stand sheet masks! But I love pink blushes, pink/red/cool lip colors, shadow, liner, scented lotion, lip balm, mascara, primer and nail polish. It took a while for me to stop getting hair stuff, and I have only gotten sheet masks once before. I’m hoping now they’ll know I hate them, but since bags are sent out in sets, I usually do get one item I just can’t use. Usually it’s because the color is warm. For example I hope to get the plum shadow. :>

I skipped the last few months but resubbed when I saw the hangover primer thing. Ended up with a crappy bag! They’re getting as bad as Birchbox and I think it’s because they have too many customers.

-theBalm eyeshadow
-Be Fine night Cream
-ML Cosmetics felt liner in emerald
-Elizabeth Mott blush
-Trust Fund nail polish

I don’t wear dark matte eyeshadow. I don’t wear liquid eyeliner, let alone any green eyeliner! The moisturizer is blah and I have a bunch of Trust Funds nail polish. And I don’t wear blush either. C’mon Ipsy, you used to be my favorite sub. Also, their new website sucks!
