What is it: Every month Ipsy sends out a cute makeup bag of samples and full size items. you can review your bag for points that you can trade in for reward items. The rewards change often and the range between 100 points and 1000 points. You can get up to 95 points every month.
If you want to subscribe you can subscribe HERE and skip the waitlist. That is my referral link so I do get points to spend but I’m not an affiliate I don’t make any money or anything it’s just one beauty junkie to another.
Hey so something a little different I decided to to a year end review. Mostly to see what kind of value I am really getting out of my subscription. I have been feeling a bit over Ipsy. I am excited to get it every month but that is more the excitement of getting a package.
Let’s start with the hard facts and then some more subjective evaluations. Always have to nerd out first.
Here is the total value of each month and the amount of products.
| Month | Value | Product |
| January | $30.26 | 5 |
| February | $59.22 | 6 |
| March | $43.65 | 5 |
| April | $38.07 | 5 |
| May | $66.79 | 5 |
| June | $43.18 | 6 |
| July | $40.26 | 6 |
| August | $52.71 | 6 |
| September | $39.20 | 6 |
| October | $57.12 | 5 |
| November | $43.83 | 5 |
| December | $53.43 | 6 |
Total: $567.72
Products: 66
As you can see I got 6 items half the time and 5 half the time.
So I paid $1.67 per item I received from Ipsy not so so bad there were definitely plenty I would not have paid that much for and some I would have been thrilled to pay that little.
The average value works out to be $47.31. Not to shabby for a ten dollar bag.
Top 5 Favorite Items:
- November – Skyn Iceland Berry Lip Fix – $5.83
- September – Luxie 207 Brush – $12
- March – Beau Gauche Tapered Blending Brush – $12
- May – Luxie 660 Brush – $23
- October – Blacq Mask – $7.25
So that is Top 5, $60.08. My top five definitely make me feel like I got actual value out of the bag.
So that about sums it up. Really short post for a change.
