So Susan Lip Love Subscription Review + Coupon – May 2017

I just got the June bag and it’s ANOTHER brown powder, ANOTHER highlighting powder, ANOTHER shadow primer, and a useless squeezy gel thing. Plus, the bag has a typo: “Well behave women rarely make history”

I have to say, all these powders that are all the same are such a waste of money. I’ve already canceled, just waiting for them to stop coming.

I just got mine today and I absolutely love the Lumi Lip! I also love colored highlighters, and using them as eyeshadow too is a great idea.

My blue was also broken, and I’ve already taken pics, cleaned it up (though I put mine into a tiny jar before reading this about the alcohol hack), and emailed asking for a replacement. I’ve heard that this has been an ongoing problem with them, which is really too bad because they are one of my favorite boxes.

So if you’re unaware as stated in many comments above the palette is meant for a highlight. Colored or tinted highlights are very in at the moment. Just look at Anastasia and a Jeffree star highlighters. Also lip toppers and glitter eyeshadows are super trendy right now. If you’re not into the latest trends then maybe this bag isn’t your forte. In my opinion I think it’s fabulous for those who are trying to stay in the know of the latest trends but aren’t sure what to buy or wouldn’t pick these for themselves. So it great to see items that arent boring and in every other subscription out there like black eyeliner, brown or nude lipstick and and a boring highlight. That’s what sets this apart. Also can I add that Jelly pong pong is amazing and I discovered them thru birchbox. Their lip products are awesome. So if you want something boring and and vanilla then you might as well just go buy your normal products as usual. Can’t wait to receive my bag it will be so much fun!

I guess they should’ve made the highlighter palette out of diamond. Thanks, I’ll be here all week.

That’s not an eyeshadow palette it’s for the face.

This is definitely my favorite sub. I love the highlighter/shadow palette. It looks great on the cheekbones or on the eyes with some Mac fix plus.

I wasn’t too excited about the bronzer because I can’t seem to make them work on my pale skin, but this one looks like it will make a lovely eye shadow!! Thanks for the swatches, Liz!

This is my second box. I doubt I’ll get much use out of the palette or lip topper, but I’m happy to have them in my collection for ‘special effects’ type looks. I’ve been on the hunt for a new eyeshadow primer so we’ll see how this one performs. Really hard to believe the bronzer is considered a full size but the color is beautiful. I’m pleased overall, but now that I’m off the waitlist for Boxycharm I’m on the fence about continuing with Lip Love.

I used to love So Susan, but after 6 months I have had enough.

The eyeshadow palettes and blushes are so small it’s not even funny. The lip products have strange textures that never apply well. Highlighting crayons look like from a kid’s pencil case. The bags had stickers half peeled off. A lot of redundant items.

The prices – how do I say it nicely – are bloody inflated. It’s a fun box for teenagers, but quality-wise it’s close to Claire’s.

One positive thing: the outer paper packaging IS adorable.

This is my third lip love bag and I’m having fun with the items they’ve sent. For the most part, these are not items that I would normally purchase for myself –that lip gloss is too sparkly for me too; one of my daughters can use it though. And the Lockdown Luster smells good enough to eat, which is strange to say about eyeshadow primer,right?

I always love the reviews of this sub. I’ve got to get it. I’m waiting in a good deal *crosses fingers*

The palette is actually a highlighter palette. At least that’s my understanding.

Swoon! I love the lip topper! Shimmery primer will be fun too. This continues to be one of my favorite boxes. I’d be interested to know how customer service handles the problem of your broken eyeshadow.
