Ipsy Glam Bag Plus April 2022 – Choice Time + All April Spoilers!

What is the price of the subscription??

Exactly….💯! There’s a lot of confusion between private label and indie brands and they’ve (private label companies) done a bang up job of confusing most folks. Huge difference. The word “indie” means nothing anymore as it’s so misused.

I cancelled Ipsy last year, I was so tired of all the made in China private labeled junk. There’s plenty of companies who private label but formulate and manufacture in the US/Europe. I have no issues with these brands. However, if a company manufactures in China they’re doing it for one thing only…profits. There’s no concern about ingredients or safety, none of that. It’s about buying the cheapest products so you can make the most money.

I also love See New! For beauty boxes I sub to See New, Boxwalla and Beauty Heroes only.

This sounds like an Instagram ad written by See New Skin Care… you have less than 10k followers on Instagram so I’m assuming you’re a new ‘privately owned’ business?

I canceled in January and I haven’t had any fomo. Each month just keeps getting worse and worse. I wouldn’t want any of this. Its funny how they acted like adding choice was such a huge upgrade for GBP when in reality all of the choices are awful. If there are any good choices they all end up in the same category so you can only choose one of them. It would’ve been so much better if they gave you the ability to choose all three products from the entire selection of that months products instead of breaking them up into groups like this. Then it would be first come first serve and when products are out of stock they remove them from the list of choices. I might have stayed subbed if they did it like that and had decent products

Ipsy bought BoxyCharm so I know most of their item are in ipsy know.

Ahh Stephanie – you clearly must not get it… arguing would imply that I’m heated and angry which I’m not in any way but your implication and divisive nature would make it clear who is.

I now understand now that you have issues with companies drop shipping specifically from China, got it. Good luck with anger management

Thanks June – that was precisely my point.

I hear you Stephanie, and sadly I agree with you. I read the whole comment thread, and I still agree with you. I really don’t mind if someone yucks my yum…everyone is entitled to their opinion. And I’d like to stop getting that 111Skin rubbish in my boxes. I keep subscribing anyway!

We get it Stephanie – it’s not your thing but you don’t have to call what someone else may enjoy ‘junk’

I also suggest you do your research outside of what just Sephora sells.. even though the majority of my picks are sold at Ulta, Revolve, or Sephora. While your insistent need to tell us that these companies are private label I hope you’re aware that IKEA, Tesco, & Great Value are all actual private label companies.. Refreshments and Complex Couture are Ipsy’s private label. I’m confused as to why a beauty subscription box wanting to create their own beauty products is a bad thing? It’s an extremely smart business move. Kimchi, Beauty For Real, Sandbar, PYT, Belle En Argent are not private labels but privately owned. There’s a huge difference. Study business management and due your do your due diligence in research before you come on here to display your ignorant negativity. Some of us like coming here to share or see the excitement of what everyone else is receiving.

Dr. Brandt, Ahava, Rodial, Yensa, Ciate, Belle En Argent, Maapilim, Kate Somerville, TheBalm, and Juice Beauty are private label junk? I don’t think so.
