Ipsy September Glam Bag Plus Unboxing

 

A couple months ago, Ipsy started to change how their "Glam Bag Plus" bags were done.

(Incase you're not familiar with Ipsy, they have 3 subscription types.

Glam Bag = 5 Deluxe Samples for $12/month

Glam Bag plus = 5 Full Size products for $25/month

Glam Bag Ultimate = 8 Full size products and 4 sample size for $50/month)

So, originally, you were able to pick one item for your bag and the rest would be chosen for you based off of your preferences. NOW, on the 2-3rd of the month, you're able to choose 3 of your items from a selection of products and then the last 2, they choose for you.

Part of me enjoys the control I get over my products but a part of me also enjoyed the surprises each month. 

Another thing they changed were the bags for GBP. All GBP  will be come with a drawstring bag instead of the little coin bags they originally came with. I think they changed this so that you can actually put the products in the bag instead of just shipping the products with a bag that they won't fit in, haha.

This month's bags were all a gold and burgundy themed corduroy theme which I was all about (Gryffindorrrrrrr)

buttttt, let's check out what came in this months bag!

Boxyluxe September 2020 Unboxing

 

I'll be the first to admit that I have a problem. And my problem...is subscription boxes. 

I used to have three (Birchbox, Boxycharm and Ipsy) but I quickly realized that I enjoyed receiving full size products more then samples so once my birchbox came up for renewal, I canceled it.

I've always been generally happy with my Boxycharm and Ipsy glam bag plus though!

I have (of course) the normal Boxycharm Subscription that gets sent every month with 5 full sized products ranging from skincare and makeup to life style items for aprox $25 a month (not including tax).

With the base box, I also upgrade every 3 months (quarterly) to their BoxyLuxe Box. This include 8+ products, in which you get to choose 2 of them, for $49.99 (not including tax).

I was SUPER happy with this box in particular because I received items that I had been eyeing (because I keep up with spoilers and stuff) and am excited to share with you all what I got!
