Ipsy vs. Play! By Sephora || which is better? (part 1 of 3)

hey ladies and gentlefriends, it's ya girl Dee, back with another video. This is going to be a three part series looking at the monthly subscription services between Ipsy and Play! by Sephora. I have been an Ipsy subscriber ever since January of this year, and only recently learned of Sephora's variation of a monthly subscription. I will be receiving both for the next few months and will compare the two side by side, if there's anyone out there that needs some input or advice on deciding.

both services:
$10.00 per month, billed at month end (sephora) 1st of the month (ipsy)
five makeup or beauty items/deluxe samples
(sephora includes perfume as a bonus)
collectable bag

ipsy:
points reward system, user input based. the more you review, like or follow other affiliates/stylists, the more points you earn. points can be redeemed for other items in your bag for the month, starting at 500.

sephora:
points are not directly affiliated with subscription service, though monthly cost will earn you 10 points towards your beauty insider account. bonus points were also given with this month's box. no user input/social media following/reviewing necessary. local meetups of other Play! subscribers as well as free advice/how-to's in store.

as always, thanks for watching!
