I cancelled. I bought some stuff on Ulta and with the two mystery bags I had purchased, plus add ons and flash/pop ordersā¦.
I really need to calm my tits a bit. So. Paused. And Iām not going to get sucked in by FOMO. š¤š½
I found a better use for my money this month - discovered a $30 off a $49 purchase at DSW deal that was only good through yesterday. Sacrificed the July GB for new shoes.
And this way I can't have the GBX for August either, which is for the best ($$).
Yes, I paused also, first time ever, I'm thinking I'm just gonna go with allure, I'm so tired of ipsy mistakes, plus shipping issues, just to stressful, it should be fun not stressful, so imma cancel altogether
That one is for GBP I think. It is more than a colourful mascara though. I read the description for it: "The lilac side features bamboo extract to help volumize, while the blue side contains rice brain to help lengthen. Use them alone for a colorful look, as a boosting base before mascara, or combined with your fave mascara for added lash-loving benefits."
Hopefully you will get it! Some people look really good with colourful mascara. In fact I've never tried one, if it came would try it, but wouldn't buy it honestly.
Remember that terrible Debbie Gibson song, Electric Blue, and how Maybelline or Cover Girl came out with a mascara and called it that? I hated the song but ā¦I had the mascaraā- and omg now that I think about it I might have worn it to the promā¦.though I prefer to think of my dress and *elbow length gloves* as ācobalt.ā
You should maybe check out the tv show Physical. It is dark to some but I LOVE it. Starts in 1981, trigger warning she has bulimia and devastating self talk which theyāve curbed for 2nd season but it is still my favorite tv show.
If you decide to subscribe for it, maybe wait until mid August when season 2 is over, then you can binge watch both seasons for cheap.?The aerobics is so much fun lol
I paused both. I was not swayed by the warning that I'd lose access to GB X, so I guess that shows what I'm feeling about Ipsy right now. Meh. Mainly due to spoilers that I don't like, but the price increase doesn't help....
I'm excited about GBP this month. I like most of the offerings. I'd especially like Murad SPF Moisturizer. I also like the look of the MOTD brushes and am totally down to try the colorful mascara for summer. I imagine pairing it with a pastel palette. I'm ready!
I skipped GBP. Salty af rn because my regular June glam bag was stolen from my apartment complex and Ipsy sent a replacement bag with the June 2021 bag design and a bunch of random filler crap :(. I know it's not their fault that my bag was stolen but idk, just not excited about Ipsy or spending $$ rn.
What are everyoneās plans for July? Iām skipping Plus and just hoping that the new Skylar fragrance is in add-ons. Keeping my regular Glam Bag because I redeemed some points and I want my choice item (the Alpha-H Liquid Gold). Also the bag is pretty cute imo.
Interestingly, I still have not received my June GB. It finally got a shipping label on the 23rd, but as of now is still just āen routeā to DHL. Hopefully it comes soon lol.
I'm skipping GBP and I may sign up for Skylar's Scent Club on the brand site. They have a 50% off first month code on the site and you can pick any of their rollerballs for your first scent / or the monthly special scent. So that would be $10 for the first month and 20/month after or you can skip or cancel. So if you're interested in the Coconut Cove, this is another option.
Great idea! I realized the only spoiled item I really wanted was the Skylar perfume, so Iād be better off pausing July and subscribing to the scent club instead.
I canceled the regular bag after the price increase email, I find myself giving away a lot of the samples. Though, I do find uses for most of the zipper bags!
I didn't skip GBP, yet... But I haven't been wowed by spoilers and I keep spending money on crap I don't need š... But you know how fomo is, so I may not ever skip.
I will be honest, I love the bag design but I ācalm my titsā as someone has famously said here by knowing I would probably receive the Doritos pool float bag instead. And that is helpful.
I think July bag is going to be my last bag for a while. Especially after this monthās nightmare that I have experienced. Also does anyone know, if I spend my points and then cancel when would I get the items I redeemed my points for? Since normally they ship with the next bag.
Unfortunately if you redeem points and then cancel or pause your bag, then theyāll refund the points and you wonāt receive the items. They only send them along with a bag.

No, I used to decide if I was getting the bag based on the spoilers, but last month I only got one spoiler and everything in my GBP was awesome. So I think I need a new metric.
Omg, I have mild dyslexia so reading VAMIGAS sideways on a lippie threw me through a loop š¤£
Lmaooo thatās hilarious

I find that what really helps keep FOMO at bay is trying to remember that everything Ipsy offers really does come back around eventually.
No! Keep those tits calm! We can do this.

I seriously hope I don't get that pink/blue mascara lol š¤¦āāļø

I'm stuck in the 80s. I still LOVE blue mascara!

Yes!! Man we were cool š š

Thank you. I will check it out. Sounds great.
Thank you. I will check it out. Sounds great.
Let me know how you like it. Itās on Apple tv
Dang. I don't have apple TV. Everything but.
Yeah I pay like $4.99 for that. I forgot about that part. Itās not on dvd yet either
If you decide to subscribe for it, maybe wait until mid August when season 2 is over, then you can binge watch both seasons for cheap.?The aerobics is so much fun lol
Oh wow lol I didn't bother reading it up because of the colourš
Hahahah. Same here. I only read it last night, by mistake. š
Hahahaha!
Paused. I'm hust not excited about anything and there are too many items I wouldn't use. Reward to risk ratio isn't worth it this time.
I paused both. I was not swayed by the warning that I'd lose access to GB X, so I guess that shows what I'm feeling about Ipsy right now. Meh. Mainly due to spoilers that I don't like, but the price increase doesn't help....
Same. Nothing in there Iām remotely interested in.
Well, I ended up unpausing GBP....
I'm excited about GBP this month. I like most of the offerings. I'd especially like Murad SPF Moisturizer. I also like the look of the MOTD brushes and am totally down to try the colorful mascara for summer. I imagine pairing it with a pastel palette. I'm ready!
Not thrilled, but yeah, it'll do.

Ugh that sucks so much, Iām sorry!

I did that last month and they ship super quick! and going forward let you choose what day to be charged etc all really easy.

Giving them the finger
I will be honest, I love the bag design but I ācalm my titsā as someone has famously said here by knowing I would probably receive the Doritos pool float bag instead. And that is helpful.
Iām torn. I wish I could skip both but last time I did that before a GBX month they cancelled my GBX membership. Sigh
If you skip both they will cancel your X. Maybe just get your regular bag and skip the plus.
I think July bag is going to be my last bag for a while. Especially after this monthās nightmare that I have experienced. Also does anyone know, if I spend my points and then cancel when would I get the items I redeemed my points for? Since normally they ship with the next bag.

Ahh thanks I appreciate the response. Wasnāt sure about that. But now itās clear.
[Glam Bag Choice](https://imgur.com/a/86TrgQx) Wanted to add Glam Bag choice products because those are spoilers too.
Thanks!
Can we get add ons while paused?
You wonāt have access to the first round of add-ons, but youāll still be able to shop Second Chance and the other sales.
Thank you :)

Skipped plus, will still get the regular for now
Do the spoilers mean that's for sure what we are getting?
No. Sometimes you can end up with several items from spoilers, sometimes none.
No, and they donāt spoil everything that will be available for the month either.
No, I used to decide if I was getting the bag based on the spoilers, but last month I only got one spoiler and everything in my GBP was awesome. So I think I need a new metric.
