Anyone else not receive their bag? I was really excited about the smashbox lipstick and the blue nailpolish. 🙁 My tracking says it was delivered on the 11th, but it never came

It’s great that Ipsy hasn’t lost its following. Personally, I am ready to cancel after this month. I am tired of receiving products from brands that are just overpriced and can only be bought online. Brands I’ve never heard of. Just keeping my Allure sub for now.

This is so far my favorite bag in the two years I’ve been subscribed to Ipsy!
I’m getting:
– Ofra Liquid Lipstick in Ipsy Unzipped
– DefineMe Fragrance in Sofia Isabel (so excited for this one!)
– Luxie Beauty Shader Onyx Brush 239
– Lottie Lacquer in Riot!
– Glamour Dolla eyeshadow in either: Stargazing or Heartthrob

I am excited about Sofia fragrance too!! I am surprised more people have not mentioned it. It is full size worth $39!!! I wanted to try their fragrance ever since I saw the Clara one as point reward I didn’t have points for.

I’m pretty disappointed with Ipsy this month. I had hopes that the December bag would have contained things especially for the holidays…something with a sparkle and a shine or makeup with a party theme (think New Year’s Eve). In fact, none of my other beauty boxes have done anything special either. I think the overall selection of products this month was pretty poor. I got the Smashbox eye liner in black (blah), the OFRA liquid lippie (my favorite thing in my bag), the Seraphine lip scrub (will use, but definitely meh), the blue nail polish (I own every shade possible in blues and I am taking a break from painting my nails) and finally, the City Color eyeshadow (I hate eyeshadow singles and it’s too much trouble to de-pot and put in a palette). On one good note, I LOVE the bag. The color is simply gorgeous. Oh well, I can’t really complain too much as the last few months have been perfect.

Haven’t seen my box variation listed.

Seraphine Orange + Cream Lip Polish

Mac Extreme Dimension Mascara

First Aid Beauty Face Cleanser

Luxie Beauty Precision Shader

Chella Brow Defining Gel

I’m happy. Ipsy definitely listens to what I like and don’t like and hasn’t sent me anything from categories I uncheck. I like more skincare, brushes, and foundation/mascara/brow, less perfume/shadow/lip color.

PSA….Just opened my Ipsy App and saw that they updated it so that I can now see future products and rate them. I also have the Ipsy shopper now too where you get cash back for making purchases. There’s even an option to change the subscription from $10 a month to a $6 one every other month ($12 charges on the month you get your bag) maybe the people who didn’t have this option like me have it now!

I can see the black eyeliner trend beginning. I already put that I only want eyeliners if they have a color but nope, hasn’t happened yet. It’s been three months and two black eyeliners. Didn’t really want a brush either. I guess the other stuff may be good depending.

Excited about my bag, although this is the second month in a row I’ve missed out on a lip scrub which I’m desperately in need of at the moment!

I’ve decided to be surprised this month. The last three months were throw-away months for me, and I had taken advantage of the option to find out what was coming. I am hoping that returning to a surprise bag will change my luck for the better.

City Color Cosmetics shimmer eyeshadow- Yay shimmer.I rarely use matte eyeshadows so I’ll take the shimmer.I’ve never tried this brand before but I hear it’s nice quality for the price.

Nyx faux black eyeliner- I’m so-so on nyx as brand but the shades sound pretty.

Rodial mascara-I’ve been looking for a mascara so I’m happy to try a new one out.

SERAPHINE BOTANICALS Lip Polish in Orange + Cream-sounds yummy.My last one had coffee so I couldn’t use it. I need a lip scrub.

LUXIE BEAUTY Precision Shader Onyx Brush 239-I’ll take all the makeup brushes please.

I love my bag this month.I’m excited to try these out.

I was actually very happy with last month’s bag…this month, not so much.

– Barefoot Venus Wild Flower Instant Hand Repair…I like trying new hand creams. I’m unfamiliar with the brand.

– Smashbox Cosmetics Be Legendary Lipstick in Legendary…I like Smashbox but HATE this color. I would never ever EVER wear a bright red lipstick, and my profile reflects this as I asked only for neutrals. And so we return to the issue of Ipsy totally and completely blowing off my profile choices.

– NYX Slide On Pencil…Don’t know what color I’m receiving yet, but I just can’t get excited over pencils.

– SLMISSGLAM L36 Tapered Highlight Brush…At least it’s not a blending brush.

– FEEL Brilliant Bamboo Charcoal Facial Sheet Mask…Always a fan of sheet masks, but I happen to know I’m highly allergic to something in this one because I’ve received it from other boxes three times.

I have yet to receive a nail polish even though it’s one of the few items I specifically checked. I see others who have lip color in lovely shades of NOT RED, so I don’t understand why they completely ignored my color preferences. In fact, they ALWAYS ignore my color preferences. ALWAYS. What’s the point in even filling out that profile?

SMASHBOX COSMETICS : always on gel liner in Fishnet

COSMOHOLIC : liquid lipstick in mysterious mocha

OUAI : hair oil

MAC : in extreme dimension lash mascara in black extreme

GLAMOUR DOLLS : glamour dolls x lisa frank eye shadow

I DO love my Ipsy! But this month is a bust… One repeat item, why? Is it because I rated it high? Idk… Idc… It doesn’t make sense and neither does 2 other items. I don’t wear eyeliner but there it is again. Same with eyeshadow. So why do they keep sending someone who says they do not wear eyeshadow eyeshadow brushes? The only silver lining in that is that it’s a LUXIE brush. Hopefully my Glambag gets here before Christmas so I can put that in my daughters stocking/makeup bag. Yes, I do my reviews and I know what’s in my profile. In the past when I have gotten a Glambag that seems like it’s maybe for someone else’s profile, the response Ipsy gives is,”We try to give our subscribers products that match their preferences but we also try to give Ipsters products they may not have tried before. Please be sure to do your reviews…” I completely understand that. If you really read thru their FAQ’s and everything Ipsy, it makes sense. But still, some months don’t make much sense at all. I looked at my Glambag for last December and it was even worse than this one. My niece had to cancel hers and she really wanted that bag. As luck would have it, 3 items were perfect for her and I had a couple if other items set aside for her. So I kept 2 items & sent her a full Glambag. Although I’m not super happy with what I’m getting from Ipsy, I’m trying to look at it from the bright side. The repeat item is a wash off mask. Not happy about that but I will still use it. The eyeliner & eyeshadow brush will be gifted.

So excited for my first Ipsy bag, much better than I was expecting!

1. PURLISSE BEAUTY
Coconut + Rice Nourishing Sheet Mask AND Green Tea + Ginger Treatment Sheet Mask (always happy to get sheet masks!!!)

2. LUXIE BEAUTY
Precision Shader Onyx Brush 239 (love brushes, but I do wish I was getting the cuter highlighting one, or at least the rose gold version of this one instead of black)

3. TONY MOLY
The Chok Chok Green Tea Watery Cream (sooo excited for this, love the brand, love moisturizers, and LOVE fermented green tea on my face)

4. TRESTIQUE
Mini Brow Pencil (I’m assuming in Espresso, but either would probably work. I’ve read bad reviews saying its not very pigmented but I tend to prefer eyebrow pencils that are less pigmented for natural looks. Either way, brows are my #1 makeup necessity so I’m excited to try this, and always happy to have more brow pencils)

5. SMASHBOX
Be Legendary Lipstick in Legendary (least excited about this, I rarely wear red lipstick as it’s very hard for me to find flattering shades, so this will most likely be swapped or gifted)

Overall amazing first box, with an almost $60 retail value. I JUST started becoming obsessed with Korean skincare products, so it seems like a sign that I started off with two!

***LOOKING TO TRADE THE SMASHBOX RED LIPSTICK FOR SON & PARK BEAUTY WATER, ANY OF THE SHEET MASKS, HIGHLIGHT BRUSH, OR ANY MASCARA 🙂

ugh. I wouldve been happy with almost any variation BESIDES mine lol the tapered highlight brush (esp), the nyx or smashbox liner, TF poreless, any mascara but either the Mac P&P or mascara (esp), desperately wanted to try the melted latex and/or lip injection, wouldve LOVED the orange cream lip scrub or the brow gel from chella, the beauty water, the dragon blood but ended up with sheet masks (which I specifically asked NOT to receive but is actually one of two items im remotely ok with since I’m putting together a ‘take good care of yourself so you don’t need 10 lbs of makeup’ Xmas gift and have weirdly come up on like 10 random masks from various subs and sources), a luxie blending brush (that I have like 7 of already from several diff companies), a eyeshadow from Lisa Frank (sorry but LF is never gonna happen 😂😂) an idea lippie (weirdly unhot hot pink is meh) and a no-name (that I recognise) eyebrow PENCIL (im pretty sure I suggested not to be sent eyebrow PENCILS but I could be wrong 😐) so yeah, I’m thinking this may be my last month with them. Rickys Cult Crushes and Allure are looking pretty good right about now!!

…..Both of my bags are exactly the same. There are two with color variations so maybe those will be different. Guess I need to go thru my profiles again and change some things. And thank goodness for swapping!!! I’m really glad to see ipsy giveaways again. If they had any for November I sure couldn’t find them.

1. Purlisse sheet masks
2. Smashbox lipstick
3. City Color eyeshadow (fingers crossed for metallic plum!)
4. NYX eyeliner
5. Chella eyebrow gel

Also I wonder if how early you do your reviews makes a difference, I didn’t get any of mine in til the 30th, and maybe by then many of the items I would have loved were all already assigned and I sort of got the “leftovers.” Still, for $10 I really can’t complain!

I don’t imagine that the date of reviews makes a difference! And either way, I think they’d just defer to your past preferences. I actually think your bags sound fantastic–I hope you like them!

I’m a little upset because both my bags are identical. Like. Every. Single. Item. I have very separate profiles and in the past when I have had an occasional dupe between them, I have rated the items very differently. I think this may be a sign for me to cancel one of my bags.

I’m getting…

* OFRA ipsy Unzipped liquid lipstick (yay! I think I’ll love this shade! I’m always bummed to get limited edition stuff though, since if I love it I won’t be able to buy more.)
* City Color shadow (meh. I got the green a few months back and LOVE their variety of colors, but if I wanted more colors after trying it, I woulda just bought more, ya know?)
* Seraphine Botanicals Lip Polish (meh, this looks like it’ll smell too strong for me.)
* Luxie Precision brush (yay! I’ve heard great things about Luxie brushes, and I don’t have a brush like this in my collection. I’m excited to try it out! And it’s just in time for post-Christmas sales hopefully, so this will be a great excuse to compare Luxie with Crown Brush)
* Lottie Lacquer nail polish in Riot! (I love metallic nail polish, but I just found out that I won’t be able to wear nail polish with my new job! So I’m bummed about that AND a little bummed that every metallic shade I get turns out to be blue. But hey, maybe they have nice ones in lighter colors!)

I feel like ipsy isn’t what I subscribed for anymore. I guess it’s no surprise that the same brands keep repeating, but I subscribed to broaden my horizons, and I feel like it doesn’t do me much good to get multiple shades of exactly the same product, or limited edition products that won’t ever be for sale elsewhere. I guess this is why people take time off!
