IPSY is a personalised makeup and beauty monthly subscription service based on your preferences which I have been lucky enough to receive in PR the last couple of months! I thought since this month includes the release of the Icon Box (which comes out every three months), I’d do a quick round up of the subscription!
Once you sign up, you take a Beauty Quiz to determine your preferences including details like hair colour and skin tone as well as how often you want certain products like lipsticks and blush and what shades you prefer. Products included could be anything from makeup brushes to body moisturiser and haircare products to lip gloss so there is a wide variety! You can also go in and update your answers to any of the questions as often as you like! Each month there is a theme, for example October’s was Beauty Nightmares and November’s theme is Glow Off This Winter!
Here’s what I got in this month’s selection!
Glam Bag* – 5 deluxe size samples for $14 USD each month and a cute makeup bag!
Marc Anthony Repair Bond +Rescuplex Leave-In Treatment
Huda Beauty One Coat Wow! Mini Mascara
Anastasia Beverly Hills Crystal Lip Gloss in Glass
Saturday Skin Carrot + Niacinamide Moisturizing Cream
Goldfaden MD Eye Defy Radiance Restoring Eye Treatment
There are quite a few brands I haven’t tried in this month’s selection and I have a couple of weekends away planned so I am most excited to try the Saturday Skin and Goldfaden MD products!
BoxyCharm* – 5 full size products for $30 USD each month!
Murad Essential-C Cleanser
Violet Voss Disco Drip Eye Shadow Palette
Cinta London Aqua Forte Super-Hold Setting Spray
Iconic London Lit & Luminous Baked Highlighter in Universal
Eleman Beauty Liquid Eye Liner
I was so happy to see the Murad cleanser
in here, this is a brand I love but I haven’t tried this cleanser before! I probably will pass the Violet Voss palette onto a friend as it's too colourful for me but I appreciate it fits the theme of this month.
Icon Box* – 8 full size products curated by a celebrity (this selection is by Lisa Vanderpump) every 3 months (February, May, August and November) for $60 USD!
Amika Hydro Rush Intense Moisture Leave-in Conditioner
Glow Recipe Cloudberry Bright Essence Toner
Tarte Tartelette Juicy Amazonian Clay Palette
Korres Santorini Grape Volcanic SkinReset Mask
Elemis Skin Buff Deep Cleansing Exfoliator
Polite Society Polite Pout Glossy Lip Balm in Pink Grapefruit
LYS Beauty Speak Love Moisture Matte Lipstick in Sincere
Bobbi Brown Cosmetics Smokey Eye Mascara
I’m definitely most impressed with this selection – not surprising since it’s the quarterly celebrity curation! Looking forward to trying out the Amika leave in conditioner, Glow Recipe essence toner and Tarte eyeshadow palette!
This has been such a treat to receive
each month and for paid subscriptions you can actually choose one product for
your Glam Bag, three products for your BoxyCharm and three products for the
Icon Box! I’m obviously super grateful I’ve been sent these in PR but as
someone who likes to have some control over the products I receive, I love that
this is an option! Overall, these are so fun to receive and there is a nice mix of products, so I think if you are looking for a treat or have some disposable income it's a great option!
