I usually choose skincare but since I want to try the Too Faced concealer and there were still a lot of color choices I went with that.
ADD ONS:
Glamglow moisturizer
Ciate London setting spray
Pureheals sleep mask (this looks really similar to the Holika Holika blueberry honey sleep mask that I love.)
I actually had more fun at the Ipsy Pop Up though. I bought way too much today between the two subs. I didn’t even know about the Ipsy Pop Up until I got an email. (Their lip care trio is a steal!)

I saw that the premium and luxe choice for August is actually not open until July 20. I am kind of confused by this post. I thought base was the only one that choice was open for at the moment.

You’re correct. August Premium Box choice isn’t open until July 20th. The description above is confusing.

If you haven’t seen it yet, log out of your account and log back in. It’s done that to me before too. Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn’t. It’s very weird.

Hi everyone! What do you all, who have tried it, think of the QMS tinted day cream? I had picked the Dr. Brandt, but I went back and changed to the cream. (Well, actually, I started with the GG, then the Dr, then the QMS, one of those days!)
I’d like something light to wear to work to even out my skin tone a bit without having to go full-on makeup! I’ve not had the best luck with the lighter products as they tend to settle into the 52 year old lines around my eyes and smile…
I also did an add-on for the Dr. Brandt. I LOVE their exfoliating scrub (in the dark blue(orblack?) tube)! Is this product anything like that one??
So Happy It’s Thursday! 😉

Paige, I picked the QMS too because I can buy $30 concealer but I cannot buy a $200 product! Someone on FB told me it is only one shade darker so it matches every skin color that way she said. I am just now to where the It Cosmetics moisturizer they sent last year matches my skin tone. It is in the shade “light” & I did the Sephora match thing and it said I would wear the Too Faced foundation in “Pearl” but the girl on FB didn’t think that would be the right shade. I figured I could drive an hour away to Ulta or Sephora and get matched correctly to that $30 concealer and it would make me happier the. Getting yet another shade product I can’t wear.

Since I enjoy a good CC or BB cream in lieu of heavy foundation I wanted to choose the QMS but I purchased the Missha BB Cream instead which is amazing. The MUA, Robert Welch recommended and he is in to K beauty and gives the best makeup tutorials and advise on what to spend and not waste your money on.
Every choice this month was good and it was the first month I would have been happy with all 4 items.

Today is supposed to be choice and add one’s, yet it won’t give the option. Anyone else having this issue?

Try this… boxycharm . com / choice (with no spaces, of course). That’s how I got in.

I think I’m going back to the basic box because the premium box has been such a let down lately… I would rather pay $10 less than get a bunch of mediocre products I cant and wont use…

Hi, I wonder if I signed up now for base box, my first box will be July or August? Thanks
Reply
Amber
You will be charged and get a box for July. The July box may or may not be a regular July box. It could just be a box of random old stock.

It would be August. I believe you have to sign up by end of prior month.

I really wish they would stop it with all these trestique products. I feel like they are the rejects you would find at Marshall’s. Or the crazy lipstick colors when literally every woman I know only wears nude pinks.

Put me in the nude pink category. Although I do switch to more of the beige/brown/coppers in winter.

Hi Gals, if I sign up today for the August box, would I get to choose?
Thanks!!

Yes you do! I just signed up (I did premium only) & I got to choose. A lot of the Too Faced concealer shades are out of stock though.

Ashley
How do you sign up for premium only? It makes me sign up for base box, then join the premium waitlist.

I have the exact same question!

I have already received 12 emails from MSA in the last few hours regarding choice and add-ons. Seems a bit excessive and it’s really starting to annoy me. I dont want to have to unsubscribe to stop it. 🤤
