Is IPSY Really Worth It? – December ’23 Edition

This month I got the GlamBag and BoxyCharm by Ipsy.

Glam Bag

The Glam Bag retails for $13 a month and ships out every month with 5 sample size products plus a makeup bag. This month, the makeup bag is super cute and perfect for winter. I will definitely be using it! I’m not a huge fan of sample sizes, but let me go through what I got.

  • Dr. Brandt Microdermabrasion Exfoliater – I used to use this and am so excited o add it to my collection again!
  • Ahava Extreme Radiance Lifting Mask – I don’t usually like to try new masks so I’ll be passing this along to someone who will!
  • What’s Up Beauty Eyeshadow Duo – I have way too many eyeshadows so I’ll also be passing this along.
  • Shades by Shan The Gel Eyeliner – I don’t use eye liner so I’ll pass this one too.
  • Shaina B Dome Blending Brush – You can never have too many brushes so I’ll definitely be keeping this!

This one was decent! I’m not a huge fan of sample sizes but I did get a couple good products!

BoxyCharm by Ipsy

BoxyCharm by Ipsy retails for $28 and renews monthly with 5 full size products, 3 of which you have the option to personalize.

  • Lucky Chick Lip Scrub – I’ve been needing a new lip scrub so this came at the perfect time!
  • tys Beauty Final Treat Hyaluronic Acid Infused Setting Spray – My skin is sensitive to setting sprays so I won’t be trying this out.
  • r.e.m. Beauty Eyeshadow Palette – I love the colors in this and will definitely be trying it out!
  • Ciate Vitamin Boost Plumping Primer – I love this brand and am interested in this primer so I’ll definitely be trying it out!
  • Dermelect Flawless Bakuchoil Treatment – My skin can be sensitive to new skincare so I won’t be trying this out.

This one seems to be okay. There are some great brands and great products I’ll be adding to my collection.
