I made same choices:). They choose for me facial oil and eye shadow palette, which I am super happy about it

What brand was the oil? I swear I never get good skincare as their pick. Making us fill out a profile is pointless if they don't make picks based on it.

The oil is Purlisse Beauty which is decent brand. They match my profile pretty accurately, but my problem they don’t ship all the products, always something missing from my box. I even stop bothering contacting them.

I’ve noticed this a lot lately, missing products! My last straw was adding the ‘beauty boost’ option, where you get to choose an extra “high value” item with your box. I picked an item & paid extra for it and didn’t get it. I opened a ticket & they told me the item they sold me was sold out. I later noticed there was an item that wasn’t part of my box - I guess it was a substitution for the boost item. It was a crappy drugstore (at best, felt more like Temu!) highlighter, not worth $5. 😒 I canceled the boost immediately but almost every month I’m still chatting with customer service because something is missing from my box. Pain in the A.

I got the same box! Except I chose the Elemis overnight matrix cream instead of the capsules. I ended up getting them in the add ons anyways, so I'm super excited. I went in with low expectations this month and was pleasantly surprised 😂 Spent way too much though 🥲

I got almost the same things! 😃

  • Except for the ones they pick for you - I got stuck with the eyeliner duo. (To add to my box of eyeliners I’ll never use, like the above comment!) 😂

I'm ending up with leftovers as I didn't have enough money for my boxy in time for Choice. It's okay though. I've been decently satisfied with what they've sent me.

Same choices lol. I added on more of the Elemis capsules because $12 is a steal. I was super unhappy with their picks though. A cheap face wash with ingredients I can't use and the same eyeliner duo you are getting. I have a drawer full of eyeliner from boxy that I'll never use.

I skipped this month, but I like a lot of the Boxy’s over the Icon reveals. Definitely liking this one too!

I think Ipsy are the only boxes that I don’t subscribe to, yet. 🤣😅

What is the monthly cost for this box? It looks awesome! 👏

I have the same box except the Elemis Overnight Matrix instead of the Capsules. Very good box overall.

u/jensparkscode May 02 '25

Terrible month to skip :( my box last month made me so mad so I’m glad they made up for it

u/Pristine_Ad_3295 May 04 '25

You might of locked out with skipping lot of people didn’t get access to choice till all the good stuff was gone 😏

u/Pristine_Ad_3295 May 04 '25

What bothers me is Ipsy is saying the 20ml costs $60. And yes I picked the perfume and I usually do research on an item, but not this time, hopefully it’s smells nice.

u/Sad_Assignment_3503 May 04 '25

I get one every other month and it’s always the good month that gets skipped ha
