My 2021 Lucky Bag came in today.........! Did it meet my expectations? *sees tinier box than last year, and label listed weight of package as 2lbs*....................oh, that's.. okay, can't judge a book by its cover, right?
- SKIN INC SUPPLEMENT BAR Optimizer Voyage Tri-Light++ (rose gold limited edition) - $265.00 USD
This is sold out from the Beautylish sites, so I don't know its exact value. My first impression of this....what the? Seriously? This looks cheap to me (never heard of this), but is valued at around 265 USD?! How am I supposed to use this when I don't have the serums lol and sorry, I don't like that I need batteries for this, I wish it was USB rechargeable. IDK HOW I FEEL. - CHARLOTTE TILBURY Hot Lips 2 (Red Hot Susan) - $37.00 USD
Wasn't expecting lipstick, but why must lipsticks, when given at random, always be red (ie Sephora's birthday gift - makeup option)? I do like CT lipsticks, so I'm not THAAT disappointed... but I wish that the luckybag would also ask what your undertone is than JUST your complexion shade range.... waaay too general when all you can choose is fair to med, or med to dark. - GOOD MOLECULES Discoloration Correcting Serum - $12.00 USD
Okay, not against another Good Molecules skin care item, maybe I will use this with the voyage tri-light lol. - NATASHA DENONA Love Palette - $65.00 USD
I like pinks but these shades of red and pink all look very similar, or is it just me? - JUNO & CO. Microfiber Rosé Velvet Sponge - $6.00 USD
LOL AGAIN? Alrighty, to my sister this goes (I just don't need two right now....I haven't really needed to wear foundation since around March 2020 when we declared our state of emergency.) - WAYNE GOSS Brush 20 Eye Shadow Smudging Brush - $22.00 USD
YES NOW I HAVE A SONIA G & A WAYNE GOSS BRUSH!! It's so soft and I can't wait to use it (when I feel like doing my face again lol) - RCMA MAKEUP Illuminating Sticks Set - $36.00 USD
Oooh I love highlighters, but not cream formula since it tends to not agree with my skin x_x. These colours
In conclusion, the value of this lucky bag is, apparently, approximately $440.00 USD. Okay, let me just take out item #1 of $265.00 USD....so, $175.00 USD. This valuation makes more sense. Why would I do that? Well...my Lucky Bag had 7 items versus my sister's that only had 6. Compared to my sister's lucky bag, we got the exact same items, except for the brush (she got a different Wayne Goss eye brush), the highlight (she got a highlighter by Jouer), the sponge (she got a clear makeup bag), and the lipstick (she got a different ND lipstick).
The Lucky Bag I received last year was valued between $222.50 ~ $262.00 USD (price variation from the Sugarpill x Little Twin Stars Collection).
I have mixed feelings and am not sure which year's bag that I received I enjoy more! Even though I didn't love the Jeffree Star Cosmetics liquid lip colours and the colours from the My Little Twin Stars collection, the latter was super cute and a happy surprise. I hope that in the future lucky bag order process, it would be more tailored to our undertones, and hopefully, Canadians would have the option to order the XL size!
