While not disappointing like Sneak Peek Two, the third round of Ultimate reveals was still kind of a dud.
They technically “revealed” only one new item: NARS Afterglow Sensual Shine Lipstick. Everything else was already shown in previous rounds. Were those items now featured? Yes. Was it an actual reveal? Not really.
So let’s talk about the NARS. It’s a good formula. If it ends up in my box, I won’t be upset the way I would be with certain other things. Am I yearning for it? No. And with lip products, there’s always the question of shade roulette. There’s also the repeat factor — IPSY is already forcing one lip product on everyone this month. Why send two?
It’s highly unlikely IPSY will do a fourth reveal round, so this is probably it. Based strictly on what has been shown, here’s my list.
PART ONE: WHAT I KNOW I WILL GET
MERIT Shade Slick Gelée Tinted Lip Oil
Makeup By Mario Master Mascara
PART TWO: WHAT I HOPE I GET
Korres Kyma Eau de Toilette
Patrick Ta Major Headlines Double‑Take Blush Duo
Indie Lee Stem Cell Serum
ILIA Skin Rewind Complexion Stick
MUTHA Up All Night Eye Cream
Skin&Co Summer on the Riviera
PART THREE: WHAT I WON’T BE MAD AT RECEIVING BUT HOPE I DON’T
NARS Afterglow Sensual Shine Lipstick
PART FOUR: WHAT I DO NOT WANT
SACHAJUAN Hair Repair Treatment
ILIA The Base Face Milk
REL BEAUTY The Essentials Brush Set
AREY Goodnight Grey Serum
CONCLUSION
Given that this will be my last month with IPSY, I’m not unhappy with how Ultimate looks. Am I deeply pleased? No. But I’m not unhappy either. I’m at peace with how our relationship will end.
