I'm considering this monthly box service but I'm hesitant. Do you use it?

    I see there's also Birchbox so I'm not sure which would be better.

    LOVE my ipsy! It's so fun.. the only difference I see between Birchbox and Ipsy is you don't get all the make up bag with Birchbox... I admit I now have way too many make up bags but they are so dang cute!

    I get Mask Maven from Beauteque. Korean beauty products. If that's something you're interested in they do a BB bag with skincare, makeup, body care etc.

    I had ipsy for over 2 years and I loved it. I also tried other makeup subs and liked Ipsy best. I quit because I had so much stuff I didn't need anymore.

    I haven't tried Ipsy, but I love my Birtchbox! I usually forget about it and when it shows up it's always a fun surprise!

    I had it for a while, I did get a few good items. But more often than not it was just "meh" samples of mascara and a face wash in every bag, EVERY month. (Like, how many frickin' face washes do they think I need?? Criminy.) I eventually got bored of it and canceled after a few months.

    I used it for a while, but they kept sending me the same shades of fingernail polish. I also got a lot of the same kinds of stuff. I tried adjusting my preferences to get different things, but it stayed the same, so I canceled it.

    I will certainly look this up.

    I love Ipsy. I have had it for over a year, so I have noticed a little bit of overlap with products, but I think it is easy enough to go in and change your preferences so you start getting different products. About every other month I get something that won't work for my skin, or that I already have and I usually just pack those up (as well as all of the extra bags) and send them to my nieces.
