I emailed them asking if I could please receive the mascara in my bag (I had used up all of mine & have been trying to find a good one through my subs lol) and I got an email back saying they had reached out to small groups of subscribers for sample selections, but would make an exception for me this time.
I felt this was extremely condescending & rude…I haven’t seen anyone else say they get this type of reply, I’m wondering why such a reply? I’ve only been subscribed with them 4-5months now but I’ve never initiated any issues with support or anything. I feel like canceling just because I don’t think that was called for. ESPECIALLY since it was posted on here to just shoot them an email if you wanted to specify one of the items to receive.
Just, ugh.

I was able to skip a month. I was cancelling my sun on the app and it gave me the option to skip a month.

I don’t believe they offer skipping months as an option.

I’ve never requested before, but this time, I did ask for the brush. I followed the instructions in a previous post and within minutes, they wrote back and said I’d be getting the brush!! Man, I LOVE ipsy!

Same here, first I requested the eyeliner,
then last night I realized I already have so many black liners so I wrote ipsy requesting the brush instead, someone got right back to me letting me know they will be sure to put the brush in my glambag!! Great customer service Ipsy!!!

Hi guys so do I just email them and just write the name of the item I want? Or do I include my name or what do I include so I can receive it? Sorry new here thanks! 🙂

Hey! You basically just send an email and say “Hello! I would like this as my sample choice” and say the item and whatnot. You dont have to write your name or anything since I think they can look your account up by email. At least thats what I did, but Im pretty new here too lol I just put August 2017 Sample Choice as the subject. Hope that helps!!!

Email from the account you signed up with and include the item name. You’ll immediately get an acknowledgement email and then a while later a person will actually respond saying what the outcome is.

Julie
email [email protected] from the email address associated with your account and include the name of the item. You will get an email back right away auto acknowledging they received your email and then a while later (or maybe tomorrow since it’s late) you’ll get another email letting you know the outcome.

Thanks for sharing! I love nail polish so I requested the Sundays and am getting it in my August bag. So excited to try a new to me brand.

Thanks for posting this list bc I love nail polish and definitely want this one. I requested it already and was told it’ll be in my bag. Very excited to try a new brand.

I asked for either the Steve Laurant eyeliner or the Nail Polish and they said they’d make sure i get at least one of them 😁

Thank you for posting this! Just requested the nail polish, and got the email back that it would be in my glam bag. Was bummed by the original spoilers, but this has me excited!

I requested the polish – but had previously requested the mascara! Was hoping they didn’t notice, but no dice ;p Mascara it is!

I requested the nail polish and was told it would be in my bag for August. Thanks for posting the additional items.

oooo I’d love to get the nail polish!

Me too, I just googled it and it’s gorgeous. <3 I never request items though because I like to be surprised. =P

Anyone have a workaround for seeing your bag early this month? The tip someone gave last month is not working for me anymore. 🙁

I got it to work a little bit ago, make sure you are putting it in both Phase 2 and 3

I’m getting:
tarte cleanser
ciate wonderwand
londontown nail polish
jersey shore lip balm
banana setting powder
not too shabby!
Jillian
Yes I did email Ipsy. I requested the SLmissglam T35 Precise Blending brush! I hope I get it! Even though I have on my profile (brushes please)! I never get one. Hopefully next month I will! Thanks for the heads up! Have a happy and safe 4th of July! 🇺🇸🎆🇺🇸🎇

I requested the cleanser & the masks, but for the 1st time I wouldn’t cry if I got one of the others.
Although I just ordered a set of brushes from Sigma during their clearance sale, so I’m set with brushes for a while!

amy
i picked the full size black eyeliner 🙂

Lisa
I don’t know if it matters but I read on another spoiler site that the t in the t35 make up brush stands for teal. So it won’t be a pink or lavender brush like it shows. Which makes sense because Ipsy had one with letter L in front that was lilac before.
Reply
Jaclyn
I already received the confirmation email that I’ll get the brush. I love that Ipsy has this option, as well as the opt-out.

I will wait for the next round of spoilers.

I tried to choose from the 2nd round last month and Ipsy replied that they couldn’t guarantee those items and sent me the first list to choose from.
Reply
Angele
Oh i didn’t know that there was a second round…i just assumed that you could only pick from the first
Reply
Lisa
You can only pick from first list. I have even had Ipsy email me with July spoilers to choose from and it was from first list. But people still ask and get turned down. Whatever floats their boat I guess . I did see one person saying they are getting the better than sex mascara though so maybe some people get lucky with a newbie Ipsy employee or something.
Nyesha Rainey
Usually MSA gets a round 2 of spoilers that they post on here, I will wait for that.

I chose the red clay cleanser. I already have too many mascaras and brushes

I requested the masks! Hope I snag ’em 🙂

I loooove that cleanser. It might not be “exciting” but it’s a quality product that I know works wonders for oily areas and it’s already to hot outside for me, ha ha. Thanks, Liz!

I love First Aid Beauty too! It works well and doesn’t bother my sensitive skin. Win/win for me!

I have to agree. I love First Aid Beauty. I received the face moisturizer in my Ipsy bag a while back and I was hooked. I’ve bought a few of their products now and recommend them to everyone I know.

Liz Cadman
You’ve convinced me – I’m going to request that as a sample in one of my bags! Thank YOU! 🙂

The blending brush

Marie
I requested the brush because it’s pink and it looks like there are little bling jewels in the handle. 😍
Reply
Lisa
It might be teal. The t in t35 stands for teal.
Reply
Marie
Oh, Ok. Thanks for the info. Teal’s pretty too. 😄
Cat
It’s likely that this brush will be teal. I received another brush with L in front for lilac back in January. Good brush. But the T is their teal color.

The handle is purple, but it’s super cute anyways, I have it and love it
Reply
Marie
Purple is pretty too. Hope I love it too.
Jennifer
I have this brush and have had to glue it back together twice… Don’t get too excited… it’s cheap.
Reply
liina
Oh no! Thanks for sharing that! Did it happen after washing it or just during use?
Marie
Oh 😑
Jb
Oh thanks for that. I was trying to decide between the brush and the eyeliner (because I only have 1,000 black eyeliners) and hadn’t heard of this brush brand but the bejeweled look did seem like it was trying too hard to appeal to a younger crowd!
Dea
Total “nope” on all of them. Had the mascara before. No, it’s not quality, despite the price.
Reply
Julie E
Why did you not like it, the reviews are great so I was thinking of requesting it since I agree these spoilers are not great…
Reply
Sun
I like the mascara except that since I don’t use an eyelash curler, it seemed to make my lashes stick straight out for some reason. It didn’t feel heavy but seemed to weigh them down or straighten them in some way. I have really short lashes. I think with a curler it would be better. I’m just too minimal with my makeup stuff to use one. (Lazy;)
Wendi
Yea the yogurt masks look nice!

Beccah
Well, these are boring. I won’t bother requesting one this month. I don’t care which one I get.
