MyGlam is now Ipsy..

[page5]

I just logged into the MyGlam site and it appears that MyGlam changed their name to "ipsy . . . beauty by you. ".

 

[Squidling]

Ipsy sounds like a disease :-(

 

[diana16]

Just saw their new website too, does anyone know how to take the beauty quiz if i was already a member?

It's possible ipsy could be "I spy", or just a latin placeholder to map out a site's layout.

No because when I signed in it said I was an "ipster." Whatever the hell that is!!! Even glammie sounds better than ipster.

lol, your guess is as good as mine.

 

[omgitsliz]

wait did someone buy the company or something? I wonder if they sold it.

 

[Playedinloops]

Well that is a bad move. How is ipsy in any way appealing as opposed to myglam?? 

And what is this hot mess of a graphic: 



And on facebook they said: 

" ipsy comes from the latin word ipse, which mean self. We also thought ipsy was really fun to say... ipsy! "

 

[Playedinloops]

glam rooms are updated when you log in to the ipsy site, though, fyi. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 

 

[tameloy]

Oh no....not too thrilled about becoming an "ipster".....WOW

 

[lauravee]

Ummn Ipsy sounds totally strange. I mean as long as the bags are still good who cares, but an Ipsy bag?? 

 

[lunadust]

This is...odd. The new name is not appealing.

 

[glamourdolleyes]

Rather interesting, what are your thoughts?

I didn't like Glammies, however, I think Ipsters is worse lol

I think its terrible. I hate the name...I almost want to cancel its that bad, lol. 

 

[xiehan]

It's weird to me because I did a project in grad school where I made an app and called it 'ipse'. I realized after it launched and I was trying to promote it that it was a terrible choice of name because no one was sure exactly how to pronounce it.

Also, did anyone else notice the thing where you click on the logo once you're logged in and they... want you to draw the dot on the 'i'? That seems suuuuuper duper gimmicky... yuck.

Not sure I like the direction they're going. Ugh.

 

[Playedinloops]

As in, I never want to suggest someone subscribe to ~ipsy~. Its just...not glamourous at all???? Ughhh myglam wtf are you doing.

[Dalylah]

Sounds like oopsy to me. No comment. Hopefully the goodies will still be wondermous.

 

[Dalylah]

As I stated in the other thread, it sounds like oopsie to me. MyGlam was much better.
