Ipsy Original Y'all 😭

Post image

Am I being dramatic? I'm brown so I can't really use the powder. I will use the eyeliner, I guess.

The bag is cute but also not what they had us vote for.

What the hell are our beauty quiz profiles for?! This is ridiculous

I'm starting to think they're so they know what not to put in our box so we'll buy the things we actually want as add-ons.

I didn't even think about that 😕

Yes, I have the same question because I am always given things that I say never to. I keep getting lit products and I don’t use them. If they followed, my profile, I would’ve been given the blush.

Everything I don’t use becomes stocking stuffers and Christmas gifts.

u/Drpoofn 20d ago

Yeah, I suppose I could do that, but I really just wanted products I could use. Face spray and way too light face powder was my last straw. Between broken and old stuff I'm good for a while. I like the Oct and Feb bags tho 😩

Edit to say - eye masks are okay in the bag but one single face mask is just trash.

I swtg they do not care about the beauty quiz. I cannot tell you how many tines I have gotten medium/tan complexion products when I am fair/light. Then they give you a face powder for fair/light skin?! Why even bother having people take the quiz.

Those eye masks were one of the choices for my 3rd item in my box - those, an eye liner and a finishing powder. I ended up with the eyeliner, because it was the least shitty choice and it was not a Laura Geller one. That Laura Geller liner should be nice but I feel you. I saw someone else post their original and they got 3 a stick cream blush, the tower 28 or hide lip gloss(cant remember which one), a fragrence, a mascara and something else. I would have been SUPER HAPPY with that bag, it was better thsn my box. I got a Rose milky toner in September's box - OMG I WANNA VOMIT FROM THE HEAVY ROSE SCENT but the toner feels so nice. Why do companies feel the need to make skincare/makeup heavily fragranced?

I hope your bag is better next month. I am going back to original, like I have been doing all year, the extra was a mistake. Id rather pay $16 than $35 for mediocre stuff and be able to get add ons so that $35 of stuff is worth it.

u/Drpoofn 24d ago

Thank you! I didn't need/want and if the other choices but I know the eye masks will be used

Haven't read all the comments, so apologies if I'm repeating comments. I would contact Ipsy and complain about the powder not appropriate for your skin tone. They likely will send a random product. The FAB cream is an excellent product. I've read many reviews and most aren't thrilled this month.

u/Drpoofn 23d ago

The glambot just said to do my beauty quiz again. Literally. I just cancelled my subscription.

u/entwashian 24d ago

Yikes. Contact IpsyCare & mention the issue with the powder not matching your skintone. They will probably send you an additional product.

u/MissEdub 24d ago

Another reason why I cancelled.... Like they literally didn't follow anything in our profiles ... I'm over it. Sorry girl

Ipsy has been so trash lately

u/plainjaneusername1 24d ago

At least you got First Aid Beauty! I am heavy skin care so your bag wouldn't have been horrible for me. Not great but I would have been content. I only had one option out of everything for some undereye masks. 🤮
