Wednesday, May 7, 2025

I received a complimentary Icon Box from IPSY. All opinions are my own. This post may contain some affiliate links. When you purchase through links on the site, I may earn a small commission, which helps me to bring you this content!


Hey, y'all, I've got the quarterly Icon Box by Ipsy for May 2025 to unbox for you and this season is curated by the hosts of The World’s First Podcast and co-founders of clothing brand FAVORITE DAUGHTER, sisters Erin and Sara Foster. I'll tell you a little about Icon Box, all of the products that could come in this season's box, plus what I got in mine. Let's get unboxing!

About Icon Box by IPSY

Icon Box is a seasonal (4 times a year) upgrade to your regular Glam Bag or Boxycharm, so it will replace your bag or box every three months (February, May, August, & November) for $60.

It contains 8 full-sized products worth up to $350 specially curated by beauty’s biggest tastemakers and celebs, and you get to choose three products from a personalized assortment, which includes exclusive product drops you won’t find anywhere else. 


Icon Box is curated by a different celebrity or tastemaker each season. This season's curators are sisters Erin and Sara Foster.


When it comes to beauty, Erin Foster and Sara Foster have seen—and used—it all. They know what works, what doesn’t, and most importantly, what always gets you compliments. As the dynamic hosts of The World’s First Podcast and co-founders of FAVORITE DAUGHTER, Erin and Sara aren’t just beauty lovers—they’re beauty insiders, each with a signature style that’s as effortlessly cool as they are.

Now, they’re bringing that insider knowledge straight to you with May’s IPSY Icon Box. Inside, you’ll discover a mix of products designed to help you feel your best when you need it most. It’s like getting a backstage pass to some of the beauty essentials they swear by—whether they’re keeping it low-key or stepping into the spotlight.

Check out all of my IPSY unboxings so far here.

That was the May 2025 Icon Box by IPSY and my box had a $312 value!!!

I can't believe we got a full-sized 15-pan Natasha Denona eyeshadow palette; I think that's a first in subscription box history!! I also got some amazing new products to try. I can't wait to try the peel and moisturizer (and I got a backup of one of my favorite toners.) I get KP on my arms so I'm excited to try this moisturizer. We also got a nice scalp product and a gorgeous blush and lip balm/gloss. This was a fantastic box and maybe my favorite ever.

ALL May 2025 Products

I like to share everything that could come in your box. Like most beauty boxes, you will complete quizzes and compile a profile for yourself when you join; That will determine the items that IPSY will choose for your box, and not all boxes will look like mine. 

This is everything that could come in an Icon Box this quarter.


This was an excellent box for just $60 extra!

If you'd like to sign up for the Icon Box by IPSY, you can get it here by signing up for either a Glam Bag or Boxycharm subscription and clicking the "Upgrade Your Bag" button.
