Ipsy

Not worth even $10, if you don't receive the product you pay extra for. And can't use the products they send. I've kept even for as long as I have hoping it would change. Now I'm just left with a bunch of product I can't use.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

It's all lies. First, you fill out a beauty survey, next, you get nothing that is on your survey. You end up with 10,000 eyeshadow brushes and 9,000 ugly lipsticks/glosses. Eyeshadow you don't request because you don't wear eyeshadow. Broken items and no help from "customer service."

Forking over your money to Ipsy is a GAMBLE. You may or may not receive what you ordered. If you do run into any issues, "IpsyCare" will refuse to do anything for you. They acknowledge the orders have not shipped, but they will not refund you. They will not make sure you get your order. I am missing an order from nearly two months ago and my most recent ones still haven't shipped either (orders placed about two weeks ago). I thought the missing order was a one-off, but it WAS NOT. Please do not believe the good reviews online. Ipsy gives their customers points for leaving positive reviews. They are NOT reliable.

WORST! Don't waste your money, I got better products from PlayBox. The last two boxes I had I got duplicate eyeliners and customer service just argued with me about it until I gave up! Why would I make up being sent two crappy $5 eyeliners? I don't know if they just reserve the worst products for new subscribers or what.

Also, the survey they give you means nothing...I specifically said no hair tools (does my hair look long enough for wands or straighteners?) and my last box had, you guessed it, a flat iron as the "high-value item." Good luck unloaded unwanted items on eBay, there are so many postings (maybe other unhappy customers?) listing items that they are worth next to nothing. I'd suggest skipping the subscription, and if you see a product you want, go on eBay and buy it cheap. So happy it's my last month this month!

I originally got excited for Ipsy for its affordable price and the fact you get a bag every month. The first couple were okay, stuff I was wanting to try out. But then it turned into products I either don't use or colors I prefer not using. It truly feels like they don't care about your preferences and just give you what they have in stock. I would not recommend Ipsy to anyone.

I signed up and paid at the beginning of the month, and even though it said it shipped, supposedly it will take weeks to get to me, which means I'm not going to get it until the following month, even though I paid at the beginning of the previous month. The pushback date keeps changing, so I'm sure it will be even longer than what it says now. If I paid for a certain month, I should get it that month, not months down the line.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

The only reason they get one star is because you have to give them something...I bought this as a one time gift for a friend. Before the year was up, I emailed Ipsy and told them I do not want to renew, I bought it as a one time gift. They said no problem..your subscription will not be renewed, and then, of course, a few months later I was charged $119.63. I have proof that they sent me an email canceling after the one year was up, and they still won’t give me back my money.

I can’t believe even though I have the confirmation email say that they would not renew my subscription they will not refund me. I wish I knew how to attach the email so I could show you my proof. I would never recommend this to a friend.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

It was great quality stuff until I went to cancel my subscription and they kept charging my account! I had to cancel FOUR separate times (they also make it nearly impossible to do so), and I was somehow still being charged. I stopped getting bags back in March 2018 but was charged every month through July 2018! I called and emailed Ipsy’s customer service several times with no response.

I finally had to call our bank and report them as a scam so they could cut them off from the source.

I've been getting my Ipsy bag for over a year now, and I love it. I feel I get more than my money's worth every single time (I haven't had to purchase mascara or eyeliner in the entire time I've been getting the bag!). I hardly recognize any of the brands, but they have all been super great quality. There's always plenty in each sample to use more than once, and many times you get a full sized product. And the bags are so cute!

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Not only is Ipsy a complete ripoff with pathetic "samples" from mostly unheard of brands, but canceling your membership is comparable to leaving the mafia. I’ve never been so disgusted with a company. Don't do it!

It is definitely worth the $10 if you love makeup and want to try out new products. I have gotten three months so far and have really enjoyed most of the products. It has given me makeup that I normally would not go out and spend money on, and I also found out I loved it. Every box I have gotten has a value of over $50. My last bag had a value of over $100 full retail price (I look up my products). If you aren't getting products you like, then try changing your preferences. There are many tutorials on how to get a better bag. Not all the products that you get are going to be your favorite. I have gotten at least one product for each bag that I didn't really like or use. I have tried to use all the products with an open mind and have LOVED most of them. This is a cheap subscription but be careful because once you try it you might get addicted!
