Ipsy August 2022 Subscription Box Review

Ipsy Bag

Cost: $12 monthly, $132 annual

Cycle: Every Month

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 300 points and 1000 points. You can get around 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 the same link any subscriber would get.

You can choose one item in your bag every month which I really like. I will say the quality of the actual bag every month isn’t as consistent or as good as they have been in years past.


Well this is my last Ipsy since I have decided to cancel. I just am not feeling the stuff I get and its feeling more like clutter.

Glow On 5th Beauty Skincare Headband

This was my choice for the month because it’ll be a good thing to keep on hand for like little giftbag type things.

Jazmine Beauty Luxe Lash Mascara

Full Size: 8 ml

Full Size Cost: $24

Yay another mascara I totally needed and wanted that.

Briogeo Scalp Revival Micro-Exfoliating Shampoo

Full Size: 236 ml

Full Size Cost: $42

Sample Size: 30 ml

Value: $5.34

I don’t usually like Briogeo products but this has had me interested for awhile I do like a good scalp scrub so I will actually be happy to give this a go eventually I only do a scalp scrub like once every 4 or 5 months so it will take me awhile.

Nomad Cosmetics America’s Parks Eyeshadow

Full Size: 22.5 g

Full Size Cost: $39

Sample Size: 1.5 g

Value: $2.60

Well normally I really liked Nomad shadows and this color story in pay is one of my favorites for a 2 shadow look but this just swatched really unimpressively not at all as smooth as I am used to from Nomad or as pigmented or true to color. Not super happy.

Patch Holic Aqua Plus+ Soothing Mask

Full Size Cost: $3.74

Patch Holic Aqua Plus+ Moisturizing Mask

Sheet masks were always some of my favs to get in Ipsy so it is nice to end on that after so many years.
