How long does it take to get on the Ipsy Glam Bag Plus? I’ve been put on a waitlist.

If I got the Glam Bag Plus now, would I get February’s or March?

That Purlisse lotion is one of my favorites and I’m currently out of good moisturizer. I’d be interested in trying the mascara. I do not want a liquid bronzer…unless I’m missing out on something. I had to pause my February bag due to finances but my birthday is in March and wanted to treat myself. Hoping the second round of spoilers is worth it because I do not want to wait until after the first. They bill you if you do that.

The month after I was put on the waitlist for the waitlist I was off!!

Just remember (Becaisw I forgot and was shocked to see i got charged what I thought was early), you get charged on the last day of the month now. I didn’t realize it until like 10 pm the day before the first when I was charged. I was confused lol!

I am snoozing this month and getting Origins skin set through amazon – cheaper price. i don’t need more mascaras and this box looks blah – was really disappointed this past month.

Glam bag plus is just killing it for me. I honestly don’t know how they do it!!!
Boxycharm you can see some of the products are the variations that didn’t sell well or up & coming brands .
Glam bag plus has been items that are already extremely popular.

Marissa Durden

I hear what you’re saying. The Glam Bag Plus is kicking Boxycharm’s butt. Almost everything in the Plus boxes are popular and great brands. Boxycharm has had some really great months, but I feel like most of the time it features one or two really great products and then some meh and not so great products.

Lana

I totally disagree. I am always happy with my boxycharm box but ipsy, not so much. If this is what we are getting this month, let’s just say, I am less than impressed.

When do we see full spoilers for ipsy?

Elizabeth

The glam bag plus that is

Nicole

You won’t get full spoilers till after the 1st of the month. There are usually a second round of spoilers here a couple days before the end of the month. Definately not anytime soon. With these being so underwhelming, I’m thinking the next round will be outstanding!😉

Julie

Got my GBP today and they subbed out the tart shadow palette and purlisse mask for the hanellie lip scrub and wander mascara. W.T.F. grrrrr!

SunnyT

I’d definitely email them.
In the 3 years I’ve been subscribed, that has never happened to me.
What you see in your spoilers are what you get.

I was so upset about the shadows I emailed them and only after noticed the second sub out. This is actually the third time something like this happened the other two were with the regular bag. They’re going to send the shadows and I’m going to ask about the mask. From everyone I know with ipsy this seems to be a me centric problem that luckily doesn’t hit many other people. I do love the “bag”

Nikki

Not super excited with these spoilers, but I have LOVED all my gbp boxes so far so I’m sure I will end up loving this one too!! I would love to see full spoilers earlier like some of the other boxes:) I’m seriously thinking of getting rid of all boxes except this one, bc it’s SO good!

I finally got an email about being added to the glam bag plus waitlist. I’m so excited I was just thinking I would cancel the others and keep gbp. I’ve been so jealous after seeing the quality in the Ipsy plus bag. I subscribe to Glossybox, Boxycharm, Allure and Birchbox. Ipsy just for my glam bag always sends me makeup that I like. Out of any bag. I’m the Ipsy bag is the one I’ve gone out and bought full sized because. It has really opened me up. A lot of people complain about Ipsy but I do hold them In high regards. I hope they keep sending out quality with the glam bag plus.

Monica

I recently I got an email to be added to the GBP waitlist as well. Hopefully I will get my first bag in March or April. I agree I love Ipsy and have purchased several things in full sizes. I liked Glossy box has well but had to unsub because I was collecting too many products.

MARIA M.

I got my February ipsy Glam plus today and I was very disappointed. The tarte palette was broken and I got an email saying they were including 6th bonus item and I had no bonus item in my box. Not sure what happened to their customer service.

MBrownlee

They emailede also about a 6th item for being a loyal customer. Then 2 hours later I was emailed to disregard the previous email
What is that?

Jill M

You should of gotten a second email a few minutes after that one stating the first one was a mistake. I got the same email, but they did apologize with the 2nd one and said that we are only getting the five products. I’ve never had any problems with Ipsy CS or the products they send out.

Michelle Diamond

I got the same email that it was a mistake accidents happen but there customer service had always been great.

Angela

Pixi is available at Target and it is a higher priced drugstore brand but they have way better products than that mascara! They could have sent their fairy lights liquid eyeshadow or their blush or some of their skin care! Cheap offerings.

Reply ButtonReply

Melissa

I agree!

Reply ButtonReply

Jill M

Can’t satisfy everyone I guess. My collection had grown so much from subs. Whether it’s high end, drugstore brands, or Indie brands, I am always willing to try anything because you never know what you may like or be able to use. With that being said, I thought that’s the point of sub boxes. 😁

Reply ButtonReply

Nikki

Jeez!!! People are such complainers. I wish I could think of the perfect word but I can’t stand all the hate. I can’t afford to try pixi just on it’s owns I love getting these bag. I get a lot more for my money.

JessB

This is only a few of the items
Though. Last month they did the same thing, showed the cheap products first then the more expensive ones, and February’s box ended up being pretty good so we’ll see. But I also enjoy a variety of drugstore and higher end products so this doesn’t bother me

Reply ButtonReply

Cindy B

I really don’t know why everyone was raving about Ipsy Glam Bag Plus. I have yet to see anything I would like. Don’t get me wrong, of all my $10 beauty box subscriptions, Ipsy is my favorite. But as far as more expensive boxes? BoxyCharm Luxe for the win! I absolutely LOVED my December Luxe box!

Reply ButtonReply

Lisa

From what I have seen Luxe for March is horrible.

Reply ButtonReply

Julie

You can’t really compare Ipsy Glam Bag Plus with Boxy Luxe because it’s half the price. It would be like comparing boxycharm to the regular ipsy and proving your point by showing that boxy doesn’t send samples. Two very different tiers. It’s awesome you like boxy luxe to me it seemed that the value for regular boxy has dropped a bit since they introduced the Luxe though.

Reply ButtonReply

Lori

You cant compare Boxyluxe to Ipsy Glam Bag plus because GBP is $25 and Boxyluxe is $50. I compare the regular Boxycharm which is $21…….. so for $4 more a month GBP has consistently been a better value than the boxycharm box.

Reply ButtonReply

Maria

Actually I still feel like IP is a better value than even the Boxy Luxe box. Until today I was getting both Ipsy subs and both Boxy subs. Another way I look at it, since Luxe is only quarterly, is to compare 3 months of IP ro 3 months of Boxycharm & luxe . “Both” Boxy subs cost a total of $92 for 3 months of products, and IP is $75 every 3 months. Not only is IP cheaper, they have newer and better quality brands and products plus they are ALL full size products (so far) vs some travel/deluxe sizes you get with Boxy. Grant it you get more total items with Boxy (20 or more vs 15), but some are cheap/junky items like dysfunctional phone chargers, cheap little makeup bags with offensive-to-some words, promotional items, etc. So really you’re probably only getting 2 or 3 more actual beauty products with Boxy. And those and possibly other items are clearance/discontinued and/or don’t come in a box like most higher end cosmetics do. Taking all that into consideration, IP is a much better value than Boxy for what you pay in total for 3 months.

That said, I’m not sure how much longer Ipsy can afford to charge only $25 a month. I’d still be willing to stay subbed unless they got up to $35 or more. My only complaint is that I wish we knew all the spoilers before you have to choose to skip a month.

Angela

No! The only thing I am interested in is the Purlisse product. Those makeup products are not for me. I hope the other variant products are waaaay better. I have loved my Ipsy plus bag please don’t disappoint.

Ipsy Plus is half the cost of BoxyLuxe. I cancelled Boxy in Oct and have been getting GBP since their first in October. I’ve been much more satisfied with Plus than I had been with Boxy for several months. I am using all of my items now, when I wasn’t using even half of what I got in Boxy. As said above, its all personal preference.

SunnyT

Everyone has different likes…
That is what makes having a variety of choices wonderful!
I like Ipsy plus way better than I ever liked Boxycharm, but that is my opinion.

Katie

I feel like since we know Ipsy uses the customization quiz vs Boxy not it makes it seem more customized and personal. Ipsy plus is great though.

Jessica

I get Ipsy, Ipsy plus, and allure all for the same cost as 1 boxyluxe box. But my Ipsy plus alone is better than boxyluxe IMHO.

Reply ButtonReply

Kathie

I agree with you 110% 🙂 I got rid of boxy in Sept with NO Regrets. I was thrilled to find the post Liz had for us with the Ipsy Plus waitlist and was able to get it in Oct. I’ve been beyond happy with everything Ipsy is doing…not only with the Plus Bag, but they care. Customer Service is great. The brands & quality of products we’re getting are phenomenal. My Dec. Plus Bag at half the cost of that Luxe box, blew away luxe in every way. And they don’t send us dangerous and/or expired products either. They never lied to us about the waitlist. No game playing. They’re getting more people off the waitlist each month and are doing it fairly. I got rid of Sephora Play too. Now I only keep Ipsy & Allure.

Dani

Absolutely. Same here. I get those same boxes as well as Boxycharm and BoxyLuxe. Or at least I did. I canceled Luxe today after seeing 5 spoilers for March, and I will most likely cancel the regular box before I get billed for March. I think if I was younger and spent a lot more time primping and experimenting with makeup I’d still love Boxy. But at this point Ipsy Plus is just a better fit and value for me. And they do provide some personalization which I really appreciate.

I may be wrong but I keep up with posts and comments on both Ipsy and both Boxy subs pretty well. I’d have to say I see more happy customers from Ipsy Plus than I do with Boxycharm or Boxyluxe. For example there’s way more dissatisfaction with Boxyluxe’s March spoilers than Ipsy Plus. Lots of cancellations, especially with Luxe. Most people are not happy with what they’re getting for $50, whereas most people are pretty stoked about what they get from IP for $25. I’m definitely one of them. To me there’s honestly no contest, for many reasons, including the fact that thus far IP hasn’t sent any items that appear to be overstock or discontinued products.

Nicole

It’s totally personal preference. I get Allure and Ipsy Plus and absolutely love them both. I watch spoilers for pretty much everything and I don’t care for Boxy. They have an occasional palette that I droll over, but that’s about it. It’s not that the value isn’t great or that the brands are bad, they aren’t at all. Boxy is a great box up at the top of the list and Plus deserves to be right there with them. My Plus had $170 value in January and I love the products. It’s all about preferences.

Reply ButtonReply

Jessica

the consensus seems to be that Ipsy has been doing way better than boxyluxe and for less than half the price.

Reply ButtonReply

Marie

I would say that Ipsy Plus has been doing better than Boxycharm but I wouldn’t say better than Boxyluxe.

SquirrelyGirl

Pixi is a cruelty free brand and this is a brand new product with a RV of $18. We get to try something new for a fraction of the price. I don’t get all the complaints…

Reply ButtonReply

Nicole

Read the reviews on the mascara. Yea!!!! Clumps!!! Because everyone loves an $18 clumpy mascara that you have to finesse to make it look right. I think everyone is right on with their complaints. There are a number of Pixi products that people would have been thrilled to see, this one’s a dud. I’m not going to comment on the bronzer because I don’t use the stuff, so for me the only ray of hope out of these three is the Purlisse. I’m still excited for March, I know Ipsy is going to bring it with more great products! I just wish they had put a better Pixi product (and no bronzer😂) in there, that’s all.

Based on these spoilers I’m not excited whatsoever. And next month is the month I get a box “comped”, for my dec box never showing up & they didn’t have a replacement to send me🤔

Thank you! Finally someone who agrees with me! I don’t understand the obsession with GBP when most of the products you get is available at Target for 4 dollars. I’ve been subscribed to Boxycharm for two months now and I got such great mid range to high end products. Definitely worth it!

Reply ButtonReply

DM

Lucy & Monica:
Pixi is actually a higher end, although yes, available in a drugstore, product. It’s better than Revlon, Loreal, etc and they make a few products that are considered “cult favorites.” Plus it’s a very popular brand in the UK, and I’ve seen Pixi, especially their Glow Tonic, show up in many high end boxes alongside much more expensive brands

If you subscribe to Boxy be prepared to receive extreme and often unflattering shades, older and likely discontinued and or overstock items —the kind you find for CHEAP (even less than drugstore prices) at places like TJMaxx and Marshall’s and various “low end” eyeliner and brow pencils like the
$5 Jonteblue eyeliner sent in more than one box, $12 eyeshadow primers, etc. Personally I’ve received several “low end” eyeliners, brow pencils, and lip products Of course there are definitely some cheapervbrands and products that perform very well, and some expensive ones that s*ck.
Boxy IS NOT higher end or higher quality than Ipsy Plus. Trust me, I ‘ve been subbed to Boxy for YEARS and to Ipsy almost from their first box. You’ll definitely see a few new and exciting items with Boxy, but there’s a good chance you won’t receive them in your particular box variation.

So….you really shouldn’t consider Ipsy lower class than Boxy at all. Not trying to be nasty, just sharing what I know about both of these boxes and the Pixi brand.

Amen sister! I concur

Ash

Good luck getting the variation that you want! Been subscribed for 3 months and keep getting the lesser values boxed each month and don’t get the major featured products! This month they pushed a Farmacy cleanser or SDJ Coco Cabana Cream. I was super excited to try either or these and BAM I get sheet masks instead after just receiving those last month. The other featured product was a Nudestix eyeshadow stick or Trestique lip product and I get a random Smashbox lipstick 😒

You should email CS and ask them to add you to GBP. That’s the quickest way I’ve seen others get off the wait list. Otherwise, I’m really not sure, because I’ve been getting it since the first box. Hope that helps a little anyways. 🤔
