Too Faced Cyber 2015 Mystery Bag
(retail: $39; now sold out)

Let me state right up front that, in cased you were living under a rock for the past several days and missed all of my advance notice posts, "It's live" posts and "last chance" posts, the Too Faced Cyber Monday 2015 Mystery Bag was available for purchase on Cyber Monday for $39 exclusively on the Too Faced website, and it sold out on Cyber Monday (as predicted). Too Faced releases a mystery bag/box every year for Cyber Monday (you can see what was in last year's box, which was $35, here). 

If you ordered this box and you haven't received it yet, DO NOT CONTINUE READING THIS POST IF YOU WANT TO BE SURPRISED. I'm guessing that if you've gotten this far, you don't care about being surprised (or you already know what's inside this bag), so that's your one warning. But I'll leave lots of space here, just so you don't see something you don't want to see.












If you scroll past this point, you'll see spoilers.



























OK, so I actually didn't end up buying this year's box (hashtag: regrets) but thank goodness two longtime readers did, so today I have lots of pics to share with you!

First up, longtime reader Amanda (@fashionfooting on Instagram) received her bag today and kindly shared this pic of the contents:

Too Faced Cyber 2015 Mystery Bag

Contents:

Too Faced promoted this mystery bag as having a value of $137. Adding up everything except the BTS Mascara deluxe sample, the total comes out to $125. A full-size BTS Mascara is 0.27 oz. and retails for $23. A deluxe sample of BTS Mascara is 0.17 oz. Based on the price of the full-size product ($85.19 per ounce), a deluxe sample has an approximate retail value of  $14.50. So adding up all of the products in this bag, the retail value comes out to $139.50 according to my calculations.

Longtime reader Allison (@allibally on Instagram) also received her box today and kindly shared pics of everything (with a bonus swatch):

So, what do you think of this year's Mystery Bag? Did you order it? If so, are you happy with what you got (or are about to get)? If you skipped it this year, are you OK with that, or are you regretting it (like I am)?

Thanks again, Allison and Amanda, for the great pics and info. I really appreciate it!

  1. Glad I decided to skip this since I already own most of these products. Thank you to whomever posted what the contents were on the first day you showed the picture of this. That person was spot on and that's why I decided to not get it. It is an excellent deal for those people who don't own these products so I'm sure they are thrilled.

    1. I'm with Carol. I'm thankful someone was able to identify the contents in advance. I do wish I had known about last year's though, since I've been eyeing some of the brushes that were in it.

    2. Add me to those who were delighted someone ID'ed all products ahead of time or else I would've been out some money. I already have too many mascaras (of all brands) and didn't need or want the other things. Rainbow is pretty to paint with, but too bright for me to wear. And if I got a bronzer blush, come on, it would HAVE to be Carrie and Big (yay SATC! Boo Friends! lol). But... good value overall for those who wanted more TF in their stash. :-)

    3. I also read that comment the first day it was posted here. That's also why I decided to skip it. I think last year's bag was way better :(

    5. Yeah, this is a great deal, but it really contains nothing that I am personally interested in so I'm also grateful for whoever deduced the contents and posted them.

    8. Glad I skipped it too! I have 3 bts minis, a full size bts, tons of melted minis and full-size, and already have the blush. Thank you Yijin Zhu. :-)

    9. Same here re glad Yijin posted that:) I skipped it and glad I did as I have zero interest in any of it. Which left me play money for the start of thier 12 days of Xmas. Day 1 is 50% off La Creme lipsticks limit 4. At 11 bucks apiece? Score! I've paid more for DS lippies and these are supposed to be fab. Can't wait til they arrive!

  5. ARGH!!!! Mr. Mailman....please please hurry with my box!! I can't wait to get it, so super excited about each one of these items =) thanks for the heads up...made sure I stayed up and get this.

  6. So happy I ordered this! Haven't received it yet, but kinda guessed what was inside based on the pic they showed. I really wanted the Ross and Rachel Bronzer... mostly for the name. The palette and lipstick look a little out of my comfort zone, but I'm okay with that! I don't own anything like it, which is cool! I also ordered the Little Book of Bronzers!

  7. Mine arrives soon, glad I bought it, torn on keeping it

  8. I haven't gotten mine yet but this is not what I had hoped. Oh well. Live & learn.

  9. Last year's definitely way better. Glad that I passed this up. Hope you had a great rest, G!

  10. Two things: Welcome back , I hope you had a good "break" from all the retail insanity. Secondly, I'm glad I bought the bag. Unlike the others, i don't have a lot of the items. Although, I'm happy that the mascara is a deluxe size, I have so many mascaras from this shopping season.

  11. So glad I didn't buy this. Last year and this year it seems like to me they were including stuff they wanted to clear out of their inventory. I'm a huge Too Faced fan and already own at least half the stuff they included in these boxes, so I saved myself some money.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Awesome stuff, but so glad I didn't order, I was tempted. This years stuff wouldn't have worked out for me

    ReplyDelete
  13. Meh. Upset I ordered it .. Oh well, live and learn. Now to figure out how to Get rid of it!

    ReplyDelete
  14. I didn't order this one since I ordered the featured set from HSN. Forget the name now. I am not really thrilled with the HSN set and I am contemplating sending it back. I like looking at the photos of what was in the bag this year so I lived a little vicariously through them!

    ReplyDelete
  15. what i remember, on the site was the info..that the bag will contain 5 full products..that i can see is not like this....((((

    ReplyDelete
  16. Super glad someone posted the items ahead of time, I would have been disappointed with this. Great value but not my type of items.

    ReplyDelete
  17. I didnt see the spoiler( where she ID'd the products), but I did see all the sale products and I figured they would pull from them and nothing really interested me. Glad I did NOT get it.

    ReplyDelete
  18. This is my first year purchasing a TV mystery bag, kinda disappointed because I skipped on last year's ( which looked way better than this years)
    I don't own any of these items so that's the only plus. Eh.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Ordered one and now I regret it :/ oh well

    ReplyDelete
  20. I find it funny all the people who are "SO HAPPY" they didn't purchase it - a couple of weeks ago they couldn't hype it enough, so they probably just didn't get up in time/missed out on it and that's their justification lol. I happened to not get it because I've never been a big TF fan, but it's an incredible value whether to use for yourself or gift pieces of it. Beauty fans are a quirky, finicky bunch haha.

  21. I just got my bag today and I'm really happy with it. I feel like it's a miracle it didn't get spoiled on instagram or something., so when I got it it was truly a surprise. I'm am IN LOVE with the eyeshadow palette and I don't own any of these products. I also really wanted Melted Rainbow, and the blush/bronzer seems nice. I'm not thr biggest fan of retractable brushes but I'm going to try it tommorrow and see how I like it. I also love the mini mascara because I actually don't own a ton of mascaras so I can always use them.
