Right? It has the same feel as “Girl Boss” or “YAAAS.” It was already kind of cringy back in like 2015, but now no one uses those phrases unless they’re making fun of people.
I don't like it, but I'm betting these were being designed right around the time Taylor Swift's song The Man came out. There is a line in that about power moves that frames them as a good thing.
These bags made me think of that lularoe documentary, where one of the designers was talking about the prints and she was like, "people were running out of ideas, the prints started getting pretty wild and ugly". It's just really thoughtless design to me. Like the GBP, what is that clashing shade of yellow? Why not hire some folks who know a little about complementary colors and whatnot? And why words/phrases? We've seen a few, "power moves", "stay golden", "have fun", "love", "dream"... maybe it's just me, but I'd take an image over words any day. The phrases on the bags give me "live laugh love" vibes, and are just bound to be less interesting than an image. Ipsy should hire some new bag people.
Idk its all personal taste. Im 24 and I like them especially the power one. Its such a pretty blue and I dont mind words I see it as a combination of lines put together like a pattern.
It’s just so terrible. Which is sad because they’ve been on a roll Dec - Feb IMO. March is my birthday month so I really want to stay but they’re just so ugly. It will probably depend on what’s in points for me.
"Power Moves", yuck. I like the GBP, though, it reminds me of that old Atari game, Q-Bert. Of course, this is why most of you seem to hate it -- ugly retro, not cool retro lol.
Me, too! Where can we find the upcoming months product spoilers? 🥰 Thanks! I didn’t know we could see them ahead of time. Apparently I’ve been living in a cave or something lol 😂
I mean I don't haaaate the draw string one but I don't want it either. Thanks for saving me money Ipsy! Still recovering from year end sales everywhere.
Yeah I like this take...I just pictured a cartoon women dressed in an 80s neon jogging suit above the writing, and I'm wondering how I can make that happen...
This bag is why I skipped and now Ipsy tryna bait me w a $99 gift + 1800 points to come back. Saying this bag is worth 149 or something dollars. How, they are fkn samples which used to be free for people to try and see if they then wanted to invest money into the company. Talk about a rip investment, Shitsy.
Definitely canceling for March. I have so much stuff I need to use up, but a cute bag can sometimes convince me to re-sub for the month. Not this month!
Ew, if I didn’t have the yearly subscription I’d def be skipping, I’ve been on vacation visiting my family for the past couple months so I will have enough things to use up when I get back. The glam bag is hideous, not to mention cringey. I don’t get the plus but that one has too much going on, makes my eyes hurt.

I want to know who signs off on these.. power moves? Lol

It’s giving MLM vibes

Seriously, wtf

Wasn't that a good documentary? I always thought those pants looked like clown clothes.

I will take a seam ripper to that tag if I decide to get the March gb. I’m not a fan of drawstring bags, but I like those colors.
Yeah, I like the GB colors but hate the "Power Moves" tag, blehhhh 🤢. Taking it off with a seam ripper is definitely the right move.
Good idea! I hate the tag and I get the regular glam bags
WHY do they feel the need to put these stupid phrases on the bag?? I like the colour but the words make it so ugly.
Hate it
The plus… kinda grew on me the longer I looked at it. Will wait and see more spoilers and how Feb/January orders arrive.
lmaooooo why is it so ugly 😭
I want it just so I can keep laxatives in the power moves one
no offense to those who like it, I dislike it. a lot.
The Plus one is like an Escher. It's cute. The GB though....yikes. No.
Thanks Ipsy, I hate it.
I'm meh on the bag. I use my old GBP bags as gift bags and that wouldn't do badly as one.
Ew. GBP looks like Marble Madness or something.
Lol it does!!! Why don’t they do a St. Patrick’s Day theme? Have they ever? I want green lol
Unless choice is something I really want, this might be the first time in almost two years I skip lol
Plus bag has a Q-bert vibe.
I thought the same exact same thing!
One on the left: Cringy.
Right??! Maybe I’m finally outside of the target age demographic… these are awful.
Love glam bag plus. Some people have bad taste and I might be one of them
This has got to be one of the worst yet. Gotta love how the Mystery Bags are always SO cute but the monthly bags have gotten uglier and uglier 🤔
Wow that's true. Any theories as to why they do that?
It’s just so terrible. Which is sad because they’ve been on a roll Dec - Feb IMO. March is my birthday month so I really want to stay but they’re just so ugly. It will probably depend on what’s in points for me.
❤️❤️❤️ loving the GBP
"Power Moves", yuck. I like the GBP, though, it reminds me of that old Atari game, Q-Bert. Of course, this is why most of you seem to hate it -- ugly retro, not cool retro lol.
I misread that as Power Hover and then sounded THAT out in my head as “power hoover,” and now I can’t unsee or unhear it. 🤣
power moves makes me lol (and not in a good way).. gbp is okay
Why did they have to put stupid words on the drawstring of GBP too?
My month to cancel!
The GBP makes my head hurt. That pattern is too much for me.
Oh that’s bad.
I’ve put up with some ugly bags through the years, but this is just dumb AF.
These don't do anything for me, but I might get the GB based on a couple of the product spoilers.
Me, too! Where can we find the upcoming months product spoilers? 🥰 Thanks! I didn’t know we could see them ahead of time. Apparently I’ve been living in a cave or something lol 😂
I rather have the GBP patten as a GB.
Well that makes it easy to skip. The GBP could be good for storing kids’ toys like random Legos.
Ohhh, the GBP is cute! I'll probably skip base and only do GBP.
Glad I’m not the only one who likes the plus design. 😂 I think it’s super cute.
so ugly
Unless they put qbert in the bags I'm out. I do not care if it's my birthday, they are just bad.
I hate the power moves bag. Ugh. I wonder if it's too late to cancel for March.
I think this is the ugliest bag they put out 😂
I’m skipping GB, there’s nothing in there that’s worth being stuck with that monstrosity of a bag.
Oh wow that glam bag design is something else...
Love the GBP!! Looking forward to counting the GBs in the local Goodwill around the first of April.
I couldn't hit the skip button fast enough when I saw these this morning.
I mean I don't haaaate the draw string one but I don't want it either. Thanks for saving me money Ipsy! Still recovering from year end sales everywhere.
I love it just because POWER MOVES is kinda hilarious to me
Yeah I like this take...I just pictured a cartoon women dressed in an 80s neon jogging suit above the writing, and I'm wondering how I can make that happen...
Ew.
Oof.. Skipping!
Hopefully the Fenty bag is cute because these… 😬 I’ll probably skip anyway.
I don’t like it
Big YIKES. It looks like a piece of duct tape was just slapped on the front of a blue bag.
It’s June 2021 all over again
Supa ugly.
Ipsys always has at least one bag a year with a stupid quote on it. This one is super bad. I like the plus bag though.
Power moves!
If they did it with a retro 80s Nagel illustration I would be ALL over it!
Yay I can ship lol
not my favorite 🤷♀️
so happy I skipped
Not a fan of the bag design, especially the regular GB. The product selection is going to have to be amazing for me to not skip.
That is horrifyingly ugly. I can’t wait to skip
I would honestly love the base bag if it didn't say "power moves" lol there's gotta be a better phrase to put on that strap
I wish they would've put a cartoon drawing of someone in an

GROSS good thing i was planning to skip March lol
Oh yuck. Those will go straight into my donation pile.
Love it.🤗
Okay, so separate, I'm not a fan but I think they look great together.
Based off the bag design and the product spoilers pretty sure I’m skipping this one as well.
Ew, if I didn’t have the yearly subscription I’d def be skipping, I’ve been on vacation visiting my family for the past couple months so I will have enough things to use up when I get back.
