Beauty Subscription Box Battle! Ipsy versus Birchbox #review

I have been purchasing an Ipsy box for the past year or so and lately I haven't been loving it. So I decided it was time to change things up and try another box. So I subscribed to Birchbox to see if I liked that one better.



These are September's boxes for each company.

First up Ipsy:

I received:

• brown metallic leather-like make up bag
• NYX eye shadow trio in IPSY colors - full size
• First Aid Beauty - Ultra repair Cream - deluxe sample size
• treStique matte lip crayon in matte nude - I think this is full size
• Not Soap Radio lotion - deluxe sample
• Formula X nail color in ignite - deluxe sample

Birchbox contents:

• Klorane Dry Shampoo - deluxe sample
• ModelCo Long-Lasting Lipstick - kitty (full size is a trio but I received one)
• PARLOR by Jeff Chastain shampoo - deluxe sample  with a packet sample of the conditioner
• Pop Beauty Eye Shadow in Sugar Plum - full size
• Wilma Schumann Skin Care - hydrating collagen eye pads - deluxe sample

 

 My thoughts:

I was planning on canceling Ipsy this month but I just loved my box so I will be continuing at least one more month. I liked Birchbox enough to try them out for one more month too. I'll keep you posted next month on which one I settle on. 

Ipsy is a monthly beauty box subscriptions that cost $10 a month. 

Birchbox is a monthly beauty box subscription for $10 a month.
