I’ve been back & forth on skipping or canceling this one since I get GBP. Having taken the quiz, looked at spoilers & the bag itself is meh, I’m gonna skip May & probably totally cancel in June or July. None of these spoilers excite me & I’ve got so many sample sizes of makeup and skincare. Definitely appreciate all the spoilers throughout the month to help decide.
Hey guys, I’m trying to skip this month’s glam bag but it says I can’t shop until June 1st if I skip. Does this mean I can’t add stuff on tomorrow? Thanks so much! 😊
You can’t add anything until May 2nd. The add ons come in your bag so if you skip I don’t see how you could get them. I know you can’t redeem points when skipped and I don’t think you can buy Ipsy offers either.
I actually really enjoy & look forward to my bag and for 10$ best I’ve ever spent on myself!
This will be my 1st sub box.I’m not liking the shape of the may bag.Excited to try any products but not the red lipstick. I’m into neutral shades.
SOOOOOOOO SICK of the RED lipsticks 🙁 Ugggg.
SOOOOOOO SICK of nude and pale lipsticks. Yuck!
How about we meet in middle and say no red or nude lipstick!
Ipsy is officially my favorite subscription. I received my April bag today along with my Allure April box. I have just now canceled Allure. Enough said on that. Although my curated Ipsy items were okay, the add on items are AWESOME. I added the Jelly Pong lop oil, the Seraphine Botanicals Berry+Juice lippie and a 111 Skin skincare item… Both of the lip items are really deluxe sizes! And they are both amazing! I wish I would have skipped the serum and added the other lip juice product. I am so happy with this bag! I LOVE ADD-ONS!
I realized as I got add-ons for several bags in a row, I got fewer great items in my bag. That’s because the items I added were ones that might have been in my following bag, yet since I had already bought and reviewed them, I didn’t get them in my bag. So I got items I don’t usually get and can’t use. No more add ons for me. I’ve also noticed that they’re adding more of the higher priced add ons. And finally, I’m concerned that the better branded items that are most popular will eventually ONLY (or mostly) be available as add ons which defeats the purpose of a surprise bag. I get why you love it, but the bag worked better for me before.
That’s true! But this last month, I added the it Cosmetics Bye Bye Undereye because it’s so expensive and I’ve already gotten it from Ipsy. So, if they have something you’ve already gotten but love… Now my overnight bag is ready to go!
Oh! This is a good though! Yes, I will keep that in mind. I did get a repeat lotion that way.
I agree with you on ALL points said & have noticed the same thing with the add-ons!!!!! For 2 months I purchased add-ons then my paycheck got switched around so now I get my check after the 2nd, so I can’t purchase any add-ons now bc it’s only available for 1 day(which is stupid bc NOT everyone gets paid the same days!) But this month I was not able to get any add-ons & I literally got the best & most expensive yet $10 bag($20 travel size watermelon balm, $35 Ofra Highlighter, thebalm lip stain, a single pan transitional eyeshadow in a wearable color & some skincare! So what you’re saying seems to be the case for me as well! No add-ons & my bags are awesome, getting add-ons & my bags have repeats in ALL of them, I dont get the products I want! I definitely see what you’re saying!!!!! ✌💖💄
I want the shimmer eye shadow contour & the highlighter. I already have the blush brush & the good genes lactic acid treatment.
Id kill for the BareMinerals dew mist.
Great skincare choices this month! I’d love the Sunday Riley, the eggplant cleanser, and the Goldfadden moisturizer, the wrinkle cream… really, anything but the highlighter and that Blossom eyeshadow.
Oh my goodness the bag reminds me of sand at the beach! I love it! I admit I like glittery things. 🙂 I hope to get the red velvet lipstick!
The bag doesn’t scream May but I kinda like it anyway.
What would a May bag look like?
💐 🦋 🦄 🌈
👏👌👍
The items are ok but the bag is a miss. Perhaps I will like it better in person.
Does anyone know when the
New Beauty + Dillard’s Editors’ Picks Box – Available? I heard April 22,2019 is this true !?
Any help would be appreciated thanks 😊
I tried to be so good this month and cut down on my subs well first off bc nothing was appealing, and I needed to save money . I thought I had this FOMO addiction under wraps . But , no I just go and added Beauty Report Box Spring edition and another skincare box, justifying it to myself bc “ oh they have a coupon “ and thinking we’ll I cut back in 4 subs , beauty addiction is real lol – and I am in the clutches of it !! 🤣😂🥰- lord help me when add ons for IPSY open up ! Beauty addiction is a rabbit hole , and I’m circling it..
Fingers crossed for the Sunday Riley and the Pixi skin drink.
Love the spoilers! I’ll be spending an additional $9 on 3 add-ons, lol. I love the bag as well. I prefer this material vs the flimsy cloth bags. I’m excited for May 🙂
The April lemon bag is so cute! And the lip products from the April options are wonderful! Got one in my bag… not the best shade plus 2 great add-ons! Can’t wait to wear one tomorrow!
Is the bag made of carpet??
Maybe sandpaper? Lol
What a great variations of spoilers. I love everything and I personally can never have too many red lippies.
😍😍 Hoping I get the eyeshadow quad, hemp lippie, blossom shadow, gold highlighter, and pixie liner!! I love that even if you don’t get an item included, you can still purchase a sample size if you really want it! I don’t use makeup enough to spend $40+ on full sizes of anything, so this is perfect for me. Can’t wait!!
I have been doing beauty sub boxes since 2014, and have yet to receive a Bobbi Brown item! Please ipsy!!!!!!!!!!!
You might want to check your quiz & retake it. Just maybe you didn’t have Bobbi Brown listed as something you would like. I would think you been a member long enough should have gotten something Bobbi Brown already. Changing the quiz does change the items you get also doing the reviews as well helps.
Hmmm I have been since end of 2014 and no Bobbi Brown yet. I need to go check too.
So many great items! I am tempted to add the regular bag back to my GBP. I have canceled all of my other subscriptions except BoxyCharm, so, I’m spending less money than I was….. :oD
I say go for it. I’ve been getting ipsy for years. And when I started receiving GBP in October I opened a second account so I could still get the basic ipsy bags. And as a fun perk you can purchase 3 add ons with the subscriptions each every month.
You didn’t have to open a second acct to get both the reg $10 GB AND the GB+!
You Can get both on the SAME acct…
& I know this for a fact, bc I do it.
But I do have 2 separate accts just so I get 2 of each😬🤫🤦🏻♀️😂 lol
Yeah, I have just a “slight” Subscription addiction (& get like 8-9 diff sub boxes besides Ipsy😬)
Love the Bobbi Brown lipstick formula but I’m not wild about either of those shades. Good Genes is amazing and is definitely a must have face product for me. I hoard the samples since I travel for work a few days a month. Most of the other products are definitely of interest. For $10, I’m not complaining about this month’s bag!
This is a fun subscription to have. I’m not too much into makeup but this is a girls dream. My 17 year old daughter and I love to try all the stuff we get.
I am fine with everything except the red lipstick. I really do not want another one.
Agree! Which there was an option on the profile to day “never send” as I don’t ever wear lip products.
I LOVE red lipsticks!! Reds, berries, fuschias are my colors! If I never get another nude, blush, taupe, or brown EVERRRR it will be fine with me! They’re too similar to my actual lip color (my daughter’s words lol) so they add nothing. I’ve tried using liners with them and BLECHHH!! Still nothing! So, I end up giving them away. So, I’ll gladly take all the red reds, blue reds, orangey reds, fire engine reds 🔴 they’ve got.
I sincerely hope that I don’t receive any more red lipsticks!!!
Ohhh girl!! I am soooo with you, AND I even told them the first time I got one, please no more Red Lippies! And big brushes! I just don’t use them! Yet, those are the two things I get most..ugh!
Don’t forget the Eyeko black eyeliner…I subscribe to 10 or so monthly boxes and I swear I get at least 2 every month. I rarely wear eyeshadow, much less eyeliner.
Send them my way eyeko is amazing I never get them and I get 8 subs a month. Guess we all like different things
It is soooo nice that we get these spoilers as early as we do! I love this site 🙂 Looking forward to May Ipsy!
Luving the new spoilers hope the ones i dnt get i can get as a add on
LOVE those shades of Bobbi Brown lipstick – I really hope they’re available as add-on items. I’d like to try that BareMinerals setting spray, too.
I don’t really care much for the newer spoilers, but I like what we can see of the bag. Hopefully it doesn’t have any hokey phrases on it.
Most of the products look like what I would use, so I’m excited! The bag is fine. I collect a stash, get them all out and figure out which ones to keep to organize hair ties, samples to keep, etc, and what doesn’t make me happy goes to my nieces and girlfriends’ daughters and those smiles are priceless! Happy month!
I love having both Ipsy and Ipsy GBP – I enjoy the variants of products of both subs and your right with the app it’s so easy to skip one or the other or both subs – so I live that feature . But for sure this may I’m keeping both subs – with open arms 🥳🥳
The bag is not screaming May whatsoever but the products look great and really are making me want to add this bag to my Plus bag.
I love how the first set of spoilers are all squozen out of their tubes and smeared around and such! It must’ve been so much fun styling and taking those photos. Totally serious. To me they say “Skincare is fun! Do it!” It works much better than “Take care of your skin in your 20s, you’ll be glad in your 50s” ever did.
That being said, I’m finding that I’m not getting as excited about cosmetics in sub boxes lately, probably because I have so. much. I might be happier just buying an extra jelly eyeshadow or glitter gel from Colourpop… but the FOMO is so real.
Gonna pause the regular May bag and get glam bag plus for May instead. Love the flexibility of being able to adjust my accounts on the app.
I could be wrong, but it looks like the bag might be all glittery. Which seems out of season for May, but I do love a sparkly bag.
OMG I like 92.5% of what’s offered wish I could have it all lol 🥰 glad I opted out of eyeliner , and don’t like that color lipstick . I’d be happy with all others plus I can’t wait to add on 😁👍❤️ The bag is eh .. it looks like a hat 😊
Oh look! More red lipstick and copper eyeshadow.
Ooh, yay, more red lipstick and copper eyeshadow!
Y’all do know that they use those colors because they tend to suit most skin tones right. Not every skin color can pull off all colors and as a company doing what fits the majority is what is better because they will lose business other wise.
I really hope Good Genes will be in add-ons! One of my favorite sub box finds ever!
Ooooh, how great that would be!!!
That bag is horrible. Will be giving it away
Cool. Give it to someone who aappreciates its value
^What she said
People expect so much for so little money… smh
I actually meant just the bag is horrible not the products but ok 🤷🏻♀️
