Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

Hi All! 

 

We are long overdue for an updated Subscription Sharing thread!  Whether it's BoxyCharm, Ipsy, or PopSugar we want to hear (and see) all about what you are subscribed to.

Interested in trading with other users?  Here are some things you need to know from @SydBristow and her trade threads:

 

Spoiler

IMPORTANT NOTE: To comply with Sephora's terms of use, items cannot be listed "for sale" or even for trade for Sephora or other gift cards. Please do not list "prices" either (which implies selling), but you can list approximate trade value.


Because a number of fake items have been sent in trades, it is strongly advised you provide photos of your higher-end items, including the labeling (you may be asked for it anyway) and list WHERE you purchased the item from. Fakes are readily available from less reputable sellers and can contain toxins! It is important to everyone to know where their cosmetics come from.

Please also be aware that some makeup products cannot be sanitized - please use caution in your trades. When in doubt, ask the community, it's a great resource! Used items you may wish to avoid are mascara, liquid eyeliner, lip glosses, and cream products.

Acquiring Items
Please use discretion with whom you enter into trades with. There is a summarized list of trusted traders here: http://community.sephora.com/t5/Off-Topic/List-of-Successful-Traders-January-2015/td-p/1852954 Protect yourself in your trades, ask questions (such as where an item was purchased), ask for additional photos (to show level of usage and/or labeling to prove authenticity).
If you don’t feel 100% comfortable doing a trade because someone is new, you can request they send their items first.

Communication
Please use the private message system on Beauty Talk and/or tag the user you are trying to get in touch with. Communication is key! You can tell a lot about a trade by how the communication goes. If you will be unavailable for any periods of time, please be up front, and if there are any issues with shipping please be up front about that as well.


Delivery
Having tracking and insurance on shipments goes a long way to figuring out where an item might be. The USPS puts anticipated delivery dates and tracking numbers right on the receipt. If there is any issue with an item you have sent out, please follow up with the carrier.

@SchylarR uhhh you're convincing me to sign up haha I need another job to support my addiction!haha

Re: @SchylarR uhhh you're convincing me to sign up haha I nee...

Omg saaaaame!!! I totally get that lol!!! Necessities first, then makeup is what I always tell myself! 🤗But hey... if there is a little extra left at the end of the day... then definitely makeup!!! @Marrrryyyyy 

Re: @SchylarR looks awesome!! I keep going back and forth abo...

If you like the original ipsy bag, then you will probably love the ipsy glam bag plus!!! Both are amazing in my opinion but ever since I started getting glam bag plus boxes, I can't imagine ever going back to the original subscription!!! It is SOOO WORTH IT!!! Every time the box comes I just feel so spoiled!!! The full sizes make all of the difference!!! 😁 Definitely let us know if you end up signing up and if you like it or not!!! @Marrrryyyyy 

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

Ooh you got yours quick @SchylarR ! You got an AWESOME box! That 111Skin serum is amazing, I wish I could have gotten it as a repeat. They gave me the other variant...boo.

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

That's awesome to hear that the serum worked well for you!!! I am excited to try it out but I am also a bit puzzled. If you don't mind me asking, how did you end up using it? Like... mixed it with a moisturizer, on its own, at night, in the morning, etc.? 😃 @Mcakes 

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

@SchylarR I used it on it's own under moisturizer in the morning, I used a different serum at night. Just a few drops rubbed into the skin after toner worked well for me!

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

@SchylarR  That variation of the Tetris palette is beautiful! Glad you’re enjoying the upgrades — and actually have time to enjoy them now that you’re done with school 😃👍

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

Haha definitely! 😄Yea, I'm excited to try the palette out! @PinkEvergreen 

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

That palette is so pretty @SchylarR!

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

It definitely is! I am a bit worried because, when I did some quick finger swatches, the colors didn't seem near as pigmented as they looked in the palette. Hmm... who knows! Maybe they will be work well with brushes! 😊 @faeriegirl

I like everything but the palette. I was hoping for the other one.

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

I'm pretty sure I'm getting the other palette @faeriegirl ... I'll trade you!

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

That would be awesome @Mcakes!

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

Awesome add ons @faeriegirl 

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

Thank you @PrettyPaint!

Great box @faeriegirl! If I didn't already have a large c...

Great box @faeriegirl! If I didn't already have a large collection, I would love to subscribe to ipsy glam bag plus. Overall I have heard good things about it and I have been fairly impressed with the spoilers I've seen. There are always some hit or miss products too like any box. Maybe after I move and have a larger beauty space. Enjoy!

Re: Great box @faeriegirl! If I didn't already have a large c...

@Lazybeautybeast I cut my sub boxes back and now I’m just going to do Ipsy Glambag Plus, Boxycharm, and FFF. 

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

I was also hoping for the other palette. I’m too lazy to do the trade/swap sites so I guess I will have to make it work. @faeriegirl

Ipsy Glam Bag Plus

Can’t wait to try the clay mask. Love The CEO cream. The trestique is nice but a bit to bright for me. You can smudge it for more of a lip stain. The brushes are okay. The eyeshadow palette looks ok, some of the colors I won’t wear but will try out cause you never know! Pretty good deal for $25

Re: Subscription Central (Spoilers, Unboxings, and More)

I agree @jen81 , for $25 the value is definitely there! Great box Heart
