Welcome! This month will be my second MyGlam bag and it looks awesome!

it's funny how birchbox had good boxes during the first half of the year while ipsy/myglam didn't and now it's vice versa lol

Well Myglam was just getting started, and also I didn't like most of my birchbox boxes and I was only on it till May, only one of them was good, the others sucked.

Agh I keep going back and forth on whether or not I should resubscribe. I don't need another mascara or another lipgloss or another anything and I know that but the good deal of this october bag is KILLING me.

I don't need another makeup or skincare related item for a while...but I caved and subbed anyway because for $10, this bag is an awesome deal! If I don't end up using the items, this bag would make a great Christmas gift!

Oooh, that's a great point. My sister is graduating college next month and I wasn't planning to send her anything until Christmas (she moved back to Europe and shipping stuff to her is such a hassle) but this would make a nice small gift. I'd have to send it to myself and then forward it to her... but at least if I double up on the items, I can pick and choose the colors I want to keep for myself and send the rest to her. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Since I'm terrified I'm going to wind up with the fuchsia lip bomb...

oh ok. i didn't get to join myglam until february and that box was a hot mess....i liked all of my birchboxes during the first half of the year except february. february was a bad beauty sub month for me...

Can someone post the bag for this month? I might subscribe and now I can't find the picture that spurred me to want to sign up!

On another note, I'm also picking up a second sub, at least for one month. I don't really need two, but it's definitely a super nice present for my sister, for Christmas. ^__^

not sure if anyone has asked this, but I am new to Ipsy this month and I have no idea how it works. I've had Birchbox for a while, so I get the general idea, but my question is... when you sign into the website and you click on the MyGlam tab and it pulls up the products in your bag this month, are those the colors you are receiving or is there anyway to see which colors will be sent to you? My eyeshadow and lipgloss shades are perfect for what my beauty profile says so I was just curious if I could go by that or if it is a complete surprise???

EEEKKK They've started shipping!!!!!

 

[Fairest of all]

Not sure if this was already posted or not but these are the possible shadow palette/ lip product color combinations!! 

 

[soccerkidtlk]

SOOOOOO excited I signed up! I would really love set 3 or 6 and Bomb 9!!! This will definately perk me up after my lack luster birchbox this month!

Ohh! I am surprised to see that I like some of the colors for the eyeshadows (3&5 especially).  I'm sure the ones I'm eyeballing are NOT likely to be the ones I'm going to get, but it's fun to fantasize.  I've been pretty curious about Coastal Scents anyway, so this might let me know firsthand exactly how decent they are.

The lip colors ALL look great, though.  /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Thanks for posting that, Fairest!
