LipMonthly is a monthly lip subscription service. However, they usually include a non lip item as well. I am a total lip junkie, so this subscription is right up my alley. The products come in adorable reusable bags and there is an information card detailing the retail cost of each item.
Cost: $12.95/month
Ships: To the US, Canada, and Internationally
Coupon: Use Code LIPLOVER to get your first bag for $5 (I am not sure if this code still works...but try it)
FIRST IMPRESSION:
This month's bag was back to the basic design. I was really hoping they would do a holiday bag design. I know they have horrible costumer service, but I have never had a problem with them. I really hope they work on their customer service so people are not so mad. However, I really do like this subscription. I am however, tired of seeing the same brands over and over. I hope they add new brands soon.
REVIEW OF ITEMS:
Evelyn Iona Lip/Cheek Tint ($22)This is a FULL SIZE! However, it looks really small to me. I don't believe this is the FULL SIZE and no way it costs $22. I really do love the shade and the formula is almost mousse like. I can't wait to try it.
Be A Bombshell Lip Crayon in Versailles ($16)This is a FULL SIZE! I have so many of these. I think they are pretty decent and I don't have this color. I can't wait to see how it looks on the lips.
MeMeMe Lipstick in Persian Pink ($15)This is a FULL SIZE! I have never heard of this brand before and I really love this color. I can't wait to try it on my lips.
Hikari Blush in Tango ($15)This is a FULL SIZE! I have a couple blushes by Hikari and I really like them. This shade is very bright and pigmented. I will have to use a light hand but I think this blush is gorgeous. I can't wait to try it.
OVERALL IMPRESSION:
I loved this LipMonthly bag! I just think the first product is not FULL SIZED. I also don't think this bag feels like a holiday bag. None of the shades scream Christmas to me. However, I do like the products included. I know there customer service is terrible, but I really love the value of this subscription. It is also such a great value for only $12.95 a month! The bag has a retail value of $68 (debatable)! I particularly love the lipstick and the blush. I will continue to be subscribed to LipMonthly. What do you think of this month's bag? Let me know in the comments below!
Note: LipMonthly increased the price to 12.95/month. However, if you are currently a subscriber you will stay locked in to $10/month for as long you have your current subscription. I think this bag is still worth $12.95!
