I’m really worried about seeing AHAVA here. I just joined last month, and in no way can I support this company or let my money go towards its purchase. I am not a customer who is picky. I have never complained about anything. Kat Von D’s brand was boycotted after she stated she would not get her child vaccinated. AHAVA is far worse. They ignore international laws and regulations. They claim their product is made in Israel when they are actually operating in occupied territories, contrary to law.

They are stealing natural resources from oppressed people for our beauty products.

Before you think I’m just throwing crazy things out there, Demark will not allow this product to be imported into their country.

Their illegal activities and constant false statements about their operation resulted in an end to Japenese distribution.

Abigail Disney, principal investor for the Roy E. Disney family fund disclaimed her shares of the company and called them plunderers and pillagers.

With such information, I am not sure how I can support the people involved in this company.

Kris

I hear you. I’ve been to the Dead Sea Israel, and it’s a pretty opulent area surrounded by Bedouin tent villages

The Palestinians people are at HUGE risk with Covid-19 runing rampant and I believe it is time to shift profiteering off oppressed people.

We scream if a product is made with the pigment of a crushed BEETLE (carmine) but it’s super legit to be made with stolen resources that have been condemned by world protection agencies???

Yea, I’m not cool with this at all.

Jamey

According to Wilki this is no longer going on as of 2016

“The company’s administrative headquarters are currently located in Holon, while the main manufacturing plant and showroom are in Mitzpe Shalem,[a 1] an Israeli settlement and kibbutz located on the Dead Sea in the West Bank.[8][9] However, as of 2016, they are vacating their Mitzpe Shalem factory in the West Bank and building a new factory on land leased by Kibbutz Ein Gedi.[10]”

Kimmi

Thank you for enlightening me!!! Will def be skipping Ipsy or cancelling until this is rectified!

Toni

Thank you for that information!

Apricot

I second your statement and agree fully, thank you for having the courage to post. <3

Saucy

Thanks for the heads up on this!

Michele Ipsy Beauty Box Girl Forever

No to the lipstick — Can’t do red with my rosy face.

Yes to the mask…….. and cream, and gel eyeliner

Ipsy’s bags look more designer-ish lately.

After 100 bags………… they have to get crafty!

Kris

Oooh I hope I do get that lip colour! I am super pink faced (red hair, blue eyes, freckles and pink pink pink skin) and I LOVE the combo of red and pinks.

Hehe if you get it maybe we can trade of I don’t?! 😊

Carol

I hope I receive or can add on the lipstick. Hopefully they will have a couple of shades as well.

Pink5

Hoping I’ll be able to get the lipstick in my Plus or as an add-on.

The rest I can take or leave.

Lori W.

I’ve never tried a lipstick from Bare Minerals so really hoping to get it. The color looks beautiful on their website. I dont wear black eyeliner and have been lucky to have only ever received 1. The rest is just ok. Certainly wont be mad if I get any of it.

Ashley

Finally a gel liner ( not liquid )! Been waiting for the day

Tracey B

That is such a fantastic idea!! I rarely travel and have been trying to come up with what to do with products that don’t suit me. I don’t know if a women’s shelter will take them (I.e. pallets that are unused, lip glosses, bronzes). All unused but no way to prove it. Any ideas?

Victoria

Hi Tracey, I’ve donated plenty of times to my local women’s shelter without a problem. I’ve also put unwanted products in a spare IPSY bag and just left it in a public place with a little note saying free for the taking.

Kris

I also do this.

Lots of the samples we get have that little metal thing that shows it hasn’t been tampered with and that satisfies most to show it’s sanitary and uncompromised.

Kate

I love these ideas of leaving random Ipsy bags with unused/unwanted products in different places that people who would appreciate finding such a lovely surprise. I was actually introduced to Ipsy after finding a small pile of makeup at my workplace with a note saying: “free to anyone who loves makeup”! I’ve never looked back since!

Prettypony

This was my first month to get ultimate. I get plus and the regular one. I got the regular IPSY bag and the ultimate in the mail today. The stuff I got in the Ultimate was not some of the stuff listed on the website for what it said I got or the card. I got duplicate of an item and some items that are not even listed. I am missing the product I picked, and some of the addons. I also got some items in the ultimate bag that were listed for the plus bag. I have not gotten my plus bag so I hope the rest of my products are in there. Has anyone else ever had this happen? There is over 10 items i got in my ultimate bad that are not right.

Casie

I have ordered several things that were shipped to my daughters house. No idea how that happened. But no luck putting them away from her after she gets them.

Alice

Contact Ipsy. They were very helpful to me to make an issue right.

Tammy Huys

I absolutely love these bags! They say spring! They are a dainty pretty floral pattern and I love the pastel colors, I’m just sad that being in Canada I can’t get the plus bag and it’s not offered in the add ons like the ultimate bag is, which I’ll be 100% getting! The plus is my favorite! I know I’m not always going to get items I’m going to use ,but I collect all the bags I don’t use and all the products I don’t use ,and then I buy boxes of tampons and pads, deodorants, toothpaste and toothbrushes, dental floss,perfumes, etc. I travel at least twice a year and I make bags up using the ipsy bags and products that I don’t use and give them to the maids and ladies in the town’s we visit, we go to Dominican Republic for 2 weeks every fall/winter, and Cuba every spring/summer, the women love these bags of essentials, plus I always try to put some fun things like makeup and makeup brushes in them, they love red lipstick, lol so that’s where all my red lipstick goes lol, I actually have 3 accounts now, so I can collect more bags and goodies for them, and give stuff to my daughter as well! Lol, so if any of you travel, this is an idea you can do with the bags and products you don’t use! And they will be extremely appreciated!😍❤

Tracey B

Shannon

Tracy B, Usually women’s shelter will take them.

Victoria

This is an adorable idea, Tammy you are so cute.

Roni Bourne

So after reading the comments, I realize that most people just like to complain mostly. I have been getting IPSY for quite a few years and I have done the Glam Plus and went back to the regular IPSY. Are all the bags total winners for my taste? NO. But I like trying new products and enjoy the ones that are winners. So I take the items that are not for me from IPSY and other boxes I subscribe to and I put them in a “bucket” all year. ON Christmas Day when my family gets together, all the females ( and one of my nephews) go crazy when I dump the Ipsy bucket for them to fight over. They say it’s the highlight of their Christmas and they start asking about it at Thanksgiving. If you don’t like something, regift it. If you don’t like a lot of it, stop subscribing. It’s a no Brainer.

Melissa Roby

Yes I agree! Cancel your subscription if your dissatisfied and save yourself $10. I personally love trying new products . Whatever I’m not going to use I pass onto a friend that I know would use that product. There are plenty of other beauty box subscriptions to try unhappy with sephora play.

Kate

I LOVE this idea so much!! Can I come to your Christmas? LOL! My sister lives a few states away from us, so when we visit we stay at her house. She has subscribed to a couple of different beauty boxes over the years. The items she won’t use and can’t use (she has a severe gluten allergy), she puts in a large jar and leaves in her guest room. It is always fun to see what she has in there each time I visit 🙂 This Christmas my sister actually made me my very own personalized beauty box that she curated! She filled it with her favorite items that she thought I’d enjoy! PS. On a side note…I totally agree that a lot of posts on this board are complaints. As long as I like the bag and 2-3 items in it, then I am happy. There is no way to make every member happy with every item and bag.

dia

Haha… yes, sometimes it’s like one giant gripefest. I can’t help but roll my eyes at people who post that they’ve never been more upset in their life over a black eyeliner or a concealer that’s too dark. Lucky them, they must have led an incredibly charmed life if that’s the biggest problem they’ve ever encountered.

Kate

Yes, well said!! We all know what the next months bags look like before we are billed for the coming month. We also get to select our choice item before getting billed. If you don’t like any of your choice options or many of the spoilers then unsubscribe!! Save your money to use on items you actually want. Personally, I love the surprise. Of course I don’t love every item or bag, but the second I consider canceling or pausing my subscription…the next months spoilers suck me right back in!

HeatherF

I agree, I use all my castoffs for gifts and donations. I let coworkers shop my stash atbthe holidays and bring in a big grab bag to my favorite coffee shop every year as well. I mean, I do have preferences and an occasional gripe (I really wish Ipsy broke down eyeliners like the do lipsticks, with a different category for liquid versus mechanical/like bullet lipstick versus gloss etc.), but I agree that some folks seem upset every month and that maybe subbing isn’t a great choice for their happiness and/or blood pressure!

Kathy S Piccini

Love the Plus & Ultimate bags for April fo sho. Interested in the Glossier cream. Waiting on more spoilers though.

tammy g.

please no black eyeliner…please people trust me at age 59 do not were blackeyeliner…only brown..black will make you look like a hooker at any age over 50…please be easy with eye stuff only a little mascara, and a little brown eye liner is all you need.. loving the other products.

Beth

Hooker?! Oh please Tammy G! 🙄
Perhaps you don’t know how to apply it correctly? Because I look fab with black liner.

Michelle Whitehead

Speak for yourself but not for me please. I am 59, have black eyeliner on today and I am ROCKIN it!!

HeatherF

Really this is to each their own. I personally don’t like liquid liner and don’t wear black, but I know many people love both at all ages! We all have our preferences, but be easy with issuing dictates for everyone over x age etc.

I so agree… I’m 56 and black eyeliners are a big NO! Please stop. Can’t we get a nice brown, taupe or even gray??

Jamey

The bags look cute for ultimate. And maybe for glam bag for a change purse……if these are just glam bag spoilers MIGHT sign up for glam bag this month. That blush brush looks good and the glossier I’d like to try. I enjoy red lipsticks but get every other color I dont wear and would love reds. Also the gel liners in a pencil looks good too…..

I’ve been pausing ultimate for months now…depending on spoilers I might get it or if they are bad, I’ll get plus and glam bag. Seems glam bag gets better stuff then the other tiers.

I don’t get how people are saying they get no cool tones eyeshadow..like that’s all ipsy has had the past couple months are chalky cool toned pallettes. I always give them away because that’s not my style…but that Dominique whatever was as cool tone as you can get!!

I hope ipsy picks things back up. I’m really cuirous how many customers they have lost. I’m always shocked when I see people say they have like 2 ultimate subs and 3 plus subs and 3 glam bags per month!!!! They HAVE to be reselling …but I’m curious how many people have actually cancelled the past few months since things have been looking so bad for ipsy.

It is said that one of the first owners are still working and own ipsy, but they also brought on a guy that used to run walmart and that’s why we’ve seen the product selection go way down, trying to save and make ipsy way more money instead of listening to what people want.

Emma

Hmm… these spoilers are a great big dose of “oh, no, honey… no” for me. I’ll be interested to see what’s in store for plus, though.

Judith Acosta

I love that lipstick shade!!!, i want it in my bag!!!!

LongIslandGirl

Finally a gel eyeliner pencil!!!!!! I’m very happy about it….IF I GET IT IN MY BAG! I HOPE IT’S MINE TO CHOOSE! I’m tired of the marker type eyeliner! Just like I’m tired of red lipstick every *¥#@*÷ month! Do I tell them to stop sending it? Yep!
It’s on repeat! Please! No more red lipstick. No more blush. No more highlighter. No more contour. No more red eyeshadow. No more eyeliner marker style! I know I left something out…..but you get the idea!
So 1 out of ? is 1 less I have to give away! I’m tired of spending money on the bags and getting stuff I’ll never use!
As for the bags? I think they are one of the ugliest, cheapest looking ones they’ve had! Usually the bags are a much classier looking style/design!

Lainee

Remember, the things you say “no more” will not be the same opinion for new subscribers. I would hate to not ever get a black eyeliner (that my over 50 face wears everyday that goes nicely with my over 50 black hair). Anyway, I do find that almost regardless of the box (make up, home goods, clothes) I just get tired of it after a year or so. While not EXACTLY repeats, you can only use so many leggings or waterbottles. I recognize that is my opinion and others might routinely go through leggings and waterbottles (like my daughter) so I don’t expect them to change what they include in the box. I expect ME to use my money more wisely and either change up my preferences like several have suggested here, or move on to a different box for awhile.

Beth

@LongIslandGirl Maybe you should list what you DO want? I’m sure it’s much shorter.

TheOtherJulia

I’m going to make a very gentle suggestion here and advise you to take a break from sub boxes for a while. You have pretty much listed off most makeup that comes in the boxes. There are some people brand new to subscriptions and want to try everything. Then there are veterans who get pickier as time goes on. I will admit to it. I’m not a fan of black liquid eyeliner either, but I know others are. So I just give away what I don’t use, or skip, or cancel. Perhaps you would be happier if you spent your money on products that you want specifically, instead of insisting that your wants be catered to exclusively. IPSY is very easy to skip or cancel. Maybe a different sub would be more to your liking? Please understand I’m not trying to bash you, but you need to adjust your expectations, or try another subscription because this one is clearly not working for you. Spend your money on what makes you happy, not frustrated and angry. Life is too short to be this upset over a sub box. It’s just not worth it.

Dawn

Woooow…. Who do you think you are? Scroll on and mind your own business if you don’t like someone else’s opinion. This isn’t a therapy session. MYOB

Bonnie

Anyone who says no to that many things you can find in a beauty box shouldn’t be subbing. Or at least should find a sub that’s maybe less makeup heavy, since you don’t seem to be a makeup lover.

Stephanie

You keep saying “no more” but there isn’t much left since you practically covered all the makeup needed for a face. I don’t get your expectations. You should change your preferences because I never get red lipstick as my preference is neutral tones and that’s what they send me.

Maria

Unfortunately it doesn’t work out so well for everyone. I have “Often” selected on every color range except neutral (“Rare”) in the eyeshadow category and for YEARS now they’ve only sent me neutrals. I rate them poorly and I have even politely and respectfully contacted Ipsy several times and yet month after month… brown, gold, gray, taupe only.

And the whole black eyeliner thing? I’ve kept eyeliner on “Rarely” unless there’s a spoiler of another color on a certain month and I change it to “Often” or “Sometimes” temporarily. But I never ever take Black off “Rarely” under eyeliner shades. I keep the Adventurous shades on “Often” at ALL times and Brown and Plum on “Sometimes.” And yet I have enough black pen/marker eyeliners to use a different one every week for probably a year. Mostly Eyeko ones. And it’s not just the regular bag. I get Plus and/or Ultimate off and on depending on spoilers and trust me…if either of those bags are offering a full size black eyeliner that month… I WILL get it. I’m not being sarcastic when I say I am genuinely thinking of taking up calligraphy because receiving so many that I will not need before they expire has inspired me to find an alternative use for them.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not actually upset or stressed about these things. I choose to focus on the other products I get that I love and the overall value. Not to mention the extra membership privileges like Add-ons and Ipsy Shopper. Plus at least I can try the formula out if I’m that curious about the brand.

I know some people seem to take this stuff too seriously but you never know. Maybe Ipsy is the only thing they buy or do for themselves each month. Or it happens to be their only source of joy or or excitement. No matter the reason, I’m a firm believer in all of us having the right to speak our minds about our own bags. We’re all adults that shouldn’t need to police or be policed by others because of a lack of positivity. Everyone is well aware that they can cancel and no one needs to remind or recommend that just because someone is venting. Just as they can cancel to remove the object of their complaining, comment complainers can just stop reading. I think it’s ridiculous for people to criticize or complain about other people for complaining. Pot calling the kettle…

Meso

I like the bags. I love the minimal design. I’m happy we aren’t getting the usual gaudi crap. It sounds like all you want is certain colored eyeshadows, mascara, and lipsticks in your bag. Your type of personality sounds more suited to buying what you want. Not a mystery bag.

Nan

That’s one of my favorite mascara. Love it for traveling. I can never get enough brushes, so I’ll be happy if I get one.

cheryl s zaccone

I like the bag and a one of the few that needs a black liner. Have been looking for a red lipstick and always need mascara. Skin care is great.

Charlotte

I agree cheryl!!!

Jacki

I’m still waiting for my March bag to ship. I just received my Plus and got my Ultimate last week. I love 💕 the April bags and would most like to try glossier.

MzBev

I got my regular bag yesterday. It was even delivered by FedEx! That was surprising, it didn’t transfer to the post office first.

Pink5

My Plus bag has been stuck in DHL limbo since last Friday.
It’s in transit. I guess.

Joyce

Mine too Pink5 Its stuck in DHL since Friday as well

Heather

Same!

Dea

My Plus bag was sent by DHL to a state north of the ipsy warehouse. I’m in a state south of the ipsy warehouse. #Logistics.

Kim M

The Glossier moisturizer is the only thing that got me excited. Hope I can choose that when the time comes. I do love brushes so would be okay with the blush brush.

AmyM

I’ll take all the Glossier, please. I’m way out of their target demo but my skin seems to love their products.

Shai

Omg bag designS are so cute

Josette

NO. MORE. BLACK. EYELINERS. FULL STOP

I really don’t understand why they continue doing this knowing it actually p&$$es people off when they are bombarded with something they can’t use. Just relax on them for two months and we can settle down.

Bonnie

Most people can and do use black eyeliner. It’s just the more vocal people on the MSA boards that make it seem like people don’t like black eyeliner. I work in a national drugstore, and black eyeliner sells far more consistently than any other shade.

Stacy

I actually haven’t received a black pencil liner in some time. I’m still on the hunt for a good pencil liner that doesn’t transfer for tightlining. Someone above said they actually want one and newer member probably don’t have a stockpile.

Suzy

I can never have enough black eyeliner, and I am supposedly too old to use it. I use it all the time, I have a teenage daughter, and her best friend, so it’s definitely a staple around here. I don’t really get mad at anything in my bag. It’s supposed to be a way to try new products, including eyeliners, and I don’t sweat the small stuff like that. If I don’t want it, I put it in my box of gift bag stuff and it makes a good gift down the road. Why waste energy on something I am buying, knowing I am doing so at my own risk? Just seems silly.

Lee Norm

👏👏

tamnbud

The only thing I’m interested in is the red bullet lipstick. I like using it for a blush stain. For some reason the things I keep getting repeats of is highlighter, metallic eye shadow and when they do send a blush it’s an earth-tone not a cool shade which is my coloring. I like when I get brushes because that is something I will use.

I got a good bag for March (still waiting for it to arrive though), hope it gets here.

Yeah, I wish they would send me some bullet lipstick in pinks, mauve and not brown or rust colored pinks.

Dawna

My February Glambag is a disgusting me. Everything in my profile is cool toned. I’m medium to tan in skin tone but with red and pink undertones. I got a tan blush, brown eyeshadow and orange lipgloss. I don’t really like walking around looking jaundiced. Thanks but no thanks Ipsy. Why even bother with filling out profiles?
I wonder if I completely changed my profile, would I get good bags?

Janet

The information you fill out is data that is collected by Ipsy to sell to the companies who place products in the box. That’s the transaction. So they aren’t using It for personalization whatsoever.

Yessy

I like the glam plus bag but I’m curious as to what would be April spoilers box. Lately I’ve been not much into Ipsy past few months but hopefully in this one spices up a notch.

ggarneau

I wonder if Ipsy is aware that lipstick comes in a large variety of beautiful shades. I believe they are only aware of brownish nude and red. I would so love a nice rose color for once!

Stacy

All sub boxes are at the mercy of what companies are willing to sell for cheap which means you’ll get colors and products that are not selling well. Very rarely will you get a “hot, new” product from an established brand in a subscription box.

Michelle

But that’s not really true. Sunday Riley is often in sub boxes with their latest skin care, even full-sized products. As is Kate Sommerville, Benefit, Murad, Nomad, and many others. I know we are at the mercy of beauty boxes so to speak, but it’s not just trash we are getting. I still don’t understand why so many people are so unhappy, and monthly talk about nothing being useable, it’s going in the trash or to a shelter, or kids, but they keep subscribing. I feel like with Ipsy and other subs, I have def found lots of great products, sometimes before they became huge.

Sarah

They are. Their business model specifies that the products that are in the actual Glambags are not paid for. They can try to negotiate, but in the end, it’s what shades the companies are willing to give out.
This may have changed by now…
I’m definitely not wishing they would. We are paying more now and this months bag is full of fall colors and none that match my profile. Products do, but nothing else about it.

Moxley

Lmao ,I don’t think ipsy or boxy knows that there are other shades out there. I have enough browns and red to paint a mural 🤣🤣 it’s like hello !!! Its almost spring ,wake up sub boxes ..smh
