If I don’t get one of those gorgeous teal eyeshadows I am going to CRY!! and cancel my subscription. Those are the first makeup products I have seen since I subscribed that I actually really want!! I have all my preferences set to “adventurous” colors (and greens), even my hair is set to “other” because it is BRIGHT GREEN, and I have been getting nothing but nude eyeshadows and natural lip shades that I keep having to give away because I will never wear them.

I wish there was a better multi-brand subscription box out there for those of us who like color and glitter and fun, artistic makeup.

At least Ipsy still HAS makeup, unlike the Sephora Play and Allure boxes I keep getting. It just sucks that with all the algorithms and technology and money these companies have they can’t do a little bit better with personalization?

Not very impressed. I stopped my Birchbox for Ipsy. 🙁 So it appears that I am getting nothing I hoped for.
….Briogeo Leave in conditioner
….NYX Lip cream in Abu Dhabi
….Eyeko Eyeliner
….Beaute Basics Eyeshadow in Taupe
….Beau Gachis Tapered blending brush

Not that I want to be ungrateful, but I listed myself as adventurous, and the lip cream and eyeshadow are definitely not adventurous! I have no less than 5 Eyeko Eyeliners, and I am super picky about what goes in my hair.
I am excited about trying the blending brush, so there is an upside! The bag is cute too 🙂
Good luck to the rest of you!

I’m not overly excited…says my bag is going to be

PUREHEALS – Centella Green Tea Mask
SLMISSGLAM – N15 Eyeshadow Brush
EYEKO – Eye Do Liquid Eyeliner Travel Size in Black
NOMAD COSMETICS – Havana Intense Eyeshadow in Cohíba or El Mar(really hoping for El Mar)
DOUCCE – Maxlash Volumizer Mascara

Not to pleased really…shall see how big samples are. I think Green Tea mask, doucce and if i get cohiba are all going to swaps page.

Love the bag design!

Shoot, can I just get, like…all of the eyeshadows instead? (maybe not the basic blue, but even the mermaid teal looks great, and both the golds look great, and that dusky rose…)

Hate all the lip colors, hope I don’t wind up with another disappointingly dull lippie.

The blur stick looks interesting. The fake lashes look like a nightmare (I will scream if I get that nonsense in my bag, I don’t even like mascara).

Everything else is kinda…meh.

found the hack on reddit and I’m getting:

*NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Soft Matte Lip Cream in London, Abu Dhabi, Cannes, Cairo, or Monte Carlo
*ELIZABETH MOTT Shimmer Eyeshadow Single in Goldy or Mermaid Teal
*111SKIN Rose Gold Brightening Facial Treatment Mask
*DECO MIAMI Nail Lacquer in Namaste By the Pool
*M.A.D. SKINCARE Delicate Skin Cleansing Gel

I usually like lippies, but not a fan of last NYX matte lippie so hopefully this one is less drying, would have loved to try the Huda or Lord and Berry. I think I also got the Elizabeth Mott shadow before as well but in a different color.

Overall, it’s a good mix of items but would have liked to try different brands.

That’s a pricey mask! I saw it for 20 bucks!

Really?! maybe there’s gold flakes in them?! haha

I’m trying to figure out the hack right now and I don’t get it lol

sam

basically, you do the usual right click on inspect and then ctrl+f which brings up a box, type “hide” and then using the arrows on the side, go to 3 to 9 and delete all the “hide” and hit enter, after the 9th hide, you should see a share my glam bag link.

I know it took me a few moments to figure it out too.

According to Ipsy hacks I have seen a pink beauty blender is also featured this month. I hope I do not get that!! I am seeing NYX lippies, Elizabeth Mott eyeshadow, blur stick, face mist, and tarte finishing powder as most common item found in bags. I have not seen lashes which does not surprise me they are $18. I did see a few lip liners though.

I’d love for the DERMA E Radiance Toner – as I have a few Derma E items that I absolutely love. If you’re ever looking for a ‘real’ microdermabrasion scrub for your face I’d recommend Derma E – though for sensitive skin it can feel like glass on the face if you scrub to hard!!. ;o

The blue eyeshadows would be love too – as well for the sheet mask (Simple and easy trial) – or the nail polish. <3

I’m not a fan of the bag design. Happy I skipped.

I like the idea of picking out a dream bag!
I’d choose the facial mist, purple nail polish, mini matte blur stick, Derma E tonier, and Nomad eyeshadow in pretty blue.

I am praying for those Huda lashes, I can’t unsubscribe since they started offering Huda Beauty items.

Love the bag design! And I hope I get that Nelson mask or that First Aid serum.

I am really hoping to get one of the bright eyeshadow shades. I’ve tried Elizabeth Mott shadows in the past, & I do like the texture. I also said “yes” to the Nomad shadow (though it was pictured in a different shade) via the Improve your Glambag feature, hoping that they’d be sending a brighter color, too.

I’d love to try the Trestique balm & see how it compares to the Milk blur stick.
