How to Track an Ipsy Order: A Simple Guide
You finally signed up for Ipsy — excited for those monthly glam bags and makeup treats to land at your door. Now you’re pacing, wondering: Where is it? When's it coming? Tracking your Ipsy bag can feel a little vague sometimes, but once you learn the tricks, it's easy and stress-free. Here’s exactly how to stay in the loop from bag creation to delivery.
How to Track an Ipsy Order
With Ipsy, delivery tracking is tied to your account and notification emails. You don’t get a classic tracking link, but there are still solid ways to watch your bag’s progress—through email, your Ipsy account, or a third-party tool if you're into that.
Using Your Ipsy Tracking Notification
- Keep an eye on your inbox (and promotions or spam) for messages from Ipsy.
- You’ll get a “Your Glam Bag is on its way!” email with a tracking link inside.
- Click it or copy the tracking number.
- Visit the carrier’s website (USPS or UPS).
- Paste it into their tracking tool and hit Track.
That link shows updates like “In Transit” and “Out for Delivery.” However, sometimes the notification can take a day or two to arrive post-shipment, especially around big launch dates.
Tracking via Your Ipsy Account
- Log in to ipsy.com.
- Click on your profile icon, then go to “Bag Status” or “Orders & Billing.”
- Find the current month’s glam bag.
- Click “Track My Bag” (if tracking’s available).
If it’s been processed and shipped, you should see a link or tracking info there.
Using Third-Party Tracking Tools
Want everything in one place? Use apps like PackyApp. Copy the tracking number from your email or account and paste it in—these tools will give you step-by-step updates and notifications, even if links expire.
Ipsy Tracking Number Formats
Carrier | Format Example | Notes |
---|---|---|
USPS | 20–22 digits or 13-character mix | Common domestic bag delivery |
UPS | 12–15 digits | For Select promotions and big items |
If your tracking starts with “9,” it’s USPS; if numeric only and shorter, probably UPS.
Couriers Ipsy Uses
- USPS First-Class or Priority Mail — fast and easy for smaller items
- UPS Ground — often used for larger shipments or promos
- USPS Mail Innovations — slower, used when they combine tracking with cost savings
Tracking steps may differ depending on the courier; just follow the email link or copy the number.
Order Delivery Statuses
Status | What It Means | You Should Do |
---|---|---|
Label Created | Ipsy bought shipping, but USPS/UPS hasn’t scanned it yet | Wait a few hours — tracking will update |
Accepted by USPS/UPS | They picked it up from Ipsy’s fulfillment center | You’re officially on the move |
In Transit | The bag is on its way through shipping facilities | Keep an eye on progress |
Departed Facility | It left one USPS/UPS facility heading to another | Still on track |
Out for Delivery | The carrier has it, and it's being delivered today | Be ready — delivery expected soon |
Delivered | The bag has arrived at your address | Check your porch or mailbox just in case |
Exception / Delayed | Something went wrong (weather, bad address, etc.) | Contact USPS/UPS or Ipsy support |
If no updates show up after 3 days, it’s worth contacting support.
Ipsy Customer Support
- Help Center on Ipsy’s site — searchable for shipping issues
- Chat Support within the Ipsy dashboard (usually available on weekdays)
- Email via the Contact Us form if chat isn’t an option
Note: Ipsy rarely offers phone support — email or chat is your best bet. Mention your bag's month, tracking number, and any missing items, and they’ll help escalate it.
Common Issues & FAQ
Where’s my tracking number?
It shows up in the email after your bag ships. If you don’t see it, check your spam or log in to your account. Sometimes updates are delayed by 1–2 days.
Why isn’t my tracking updating?
USPS/UPS might not scan right away. If it’s quiet for 3+ days and your delivery date is near, reach out to support.
It says “Delivered,” but I don’t have it.
Check with roommates, building staff, and around your porch. If still missing, contact USPS/UPS, then message Ipsy.
Can I change my shipping address after ordering?
Not usually. If you need it rerouted, contact Ipsy ASAP before the bag reaches shipping (rarely reversible, though).
What if my bag got lost or damaged?
Contact Ipsy support within 30 days—they’ll typically send a replacement or credit.
