Ipsy Glam Bag August 2014

This was my first Ipsy bag since the beginning of the year, I finally was able to get off of the waiting list again so I was super excited to have my little pink package back in my mail box...

If you aren't familiar with Ipsy it's a makeup subscription for only $10 a month. Each month you will receive a makeup bag with 4-6 beauty products, most are deluxe sized & some full size. I've had Ipsy for over a year and have always received more than my $10 worth!

 



This month's theme was "Beauty Schooled" there were 17 total products that were up for grabs. Although there were some other things I would have liked to received I was very happy with my bag this month! Everything will get used for sure.

 

 

Urban Decay 24/7 velvet glide on eye pencil in Plushie (purple)

.03oz size - $12

 

This was defiantly the product I wanted most. I love UD eyeliners so very glad to add this one to my collection. Although I doubt I will totally line my entire eye in purple eyeliner it is pretty on my lower lash line. Also if you've never used UD 24/7 eyeliner it really does last a long time.

 

J.Cat flying solo eyeshadow in Half Naked

This is a full size product for $2.99

 

I have a few J.Cat products I've received from Ipsy before and so far so good. I'll add this to the collection and use it up eventually I'm sure.

 

 

 

BH Cosmetics blush sampler duo.

I estimated about $2? Seems about right..

I love everything I've ever purchased from BHC myself they never disappoint and this was not exception. Although a small duo they will both no doubt get used up & maybe even purchased in a full size from BHC myself.

Jersey Shore Sun Mongongo lip conditioner in mandarin green orange ginger

& Klorane extra gentle dry shampoo with oat milk

 I was excited to receive both as I love lip balms & dry shampoo. The lip balm feels great on my lips but I hate the flavor. It's so gross. Will be tossing it since I've already used it but I was very satisfied with the dry shampoo this could possibly be a product I will purchase if I can find it in stores.

Jersey Shore Lip Conditioner/full size - $5.50

Klorane dry shampoo/full size - $8.99

 

Overall I was satisfied with my products & I'll reuse the cute little white & orange polka dot bag for something. With an estimated value of over $30 I think it was well worth $10! If you haven't signed up for Ipsy I suggest you go ahead & do so.

Ipsy My Glam November 2013

It has arrived, it did seem kinda strange since my bag came while I was at work today and then this evening around 6pm they sent me an email saying it was on its way...ok? When I first seen my Glam Room I was slightly disappointed...yes I understand this is a subscription box and they send you what they want but let me explain. Obviously when the spoilers come out I'm like oh I want this or oh I don't want that but I received the Starlooks eye pencil in the silverish purple color, yay that's fun but then my EM makeup product was a grey eye liner ... I mean I feel like I received the same product twice which is not cool. But what I'm saying is I wish Ipsy would have looked more into it what everyone was receiving and tried to make the EM product something different than what was already in the bag. With that being said lets look at my bag!

November 2013 Ipsy

 

polish, lashes, bronzer, eyeliners, and a lip crayon and that bag!!! I love that bag!

 

I've never tried the Kiss brand lashes but I'm always game for new lashes!

I've also been running low on my holy grail bronzer but I've made myself not buy anymore because I knew I was getting a bronzer from Pixi in my bag.

 

Pixi bronzer!

 

 

Nailtini polish in Caviar Cocktail!

(the swatch on my nail is one coat & this stuff dries fast!)

 

Starlooks amethyst gem pencil eyeliner

 

And this is the EM waterliner intense color eye liner

 

Be a Bombshell lip crayon in Shameless

 

Swatches - L to R: Starlooks eye liner in Amethyst, EM intense color eye liner & Shamless Bombshell lip crayon (great colors, great pigmentations)

 

EM waterliner intense liner color- $20

Be a Bombshell lip crayon - $14

Nailtini polish - $13

Pixi Bronzer- 3.2 grams - $5

Starlooks Gem eye pencil- $14

Kiss everEZlash double pack- $5

 

I paid $10 for this bag but all of my total products combined were over $70! Um wowwwww. I am so impressed even if I did get two eyeliners. All of my products were FULL SIZE except the Pixi bronzer but its still a really nice deluxe size.

 

Do yourself a favor and sign up now!!!! Really it's totally worth it!

Ipsy November 2013 Spoiler!

Yayy it's time for Ipsy spoilers again. Almost as good as getting the actual Ipsy bag!

 

Found this little gem in my email. And we are getting an extra product in our November bag and I assume its an EM by Michelle Phan product....well well well this should be interesting!

 

 

We will be getting a full size product from the EM Spring 2014 line

 

Be a Bombshell lip crayon!

 

Looks like blush that may be from Pixi, that's the only packaging I could think of when I seen this picture.

 

Nailtini polish in caviar cocktail & cognac

 

Looks like all kinds of things in this picture my guesses are..

Cailyn mineral eye shadow

Glam Glow mud mask

BH Cosmetics Galaxy Chic mini palette

Kiss brand false eye lashes

HSI Argan oil

TreSemme Hair Spray

 

 

 

I've gotten two eyeliners from Ipsy since I started getting them in July and its mehh I have a ton of them so I'd rather not get another one but it does seem that these won't be basic black but nice silver, gold or a jewel tone so that wouldn't be so bad if I did get one. Maybe a fun color for a holiday party!

 

 

I think this month's bag is a metallic gold clutch. yes yes yes ! Gold is my new favorite so this is going to be my new go to bag!

 

 

Ipsy is only $10 a month and defiantly worth it in my opinion if you haven't signed up you should give it a try ! If you use my code it also helps me earn points to a free product !

September 2013 Ipsy My Glam Bag

My Ipsy bag has FINALLY arrived & according to the tracking code they sent me it sat in Georgia for a week...why? I understand the free shipping but that irks me. I checked my Glam Room as soon as it opened up because I can't help myself , so I knew what I was getting.

If you don't know what Ipsy is its a monthly makeup/beauty subscription program. Its $10 a month and you will receive 4-5 full size or deluxe size products based on the beauty quiz you take.

My first look.

This month's theme is Classic Beauty.

Loving the blue bag!

 

This is the sample card from Michelle Phan;s new make up line, she' s the creator behind Ipsy/Glam bag. The blush & eyeshadows in the bottom right corner are the samples, I don't ever have too much luck with sample cards like this but we shall see !

 

Since I peeked at the Glam Room I knew what I was getting.

 

In the glam room my nyx eye shadow was grey and I was excited but it came and it was blue so that wasn't a good surprise for me, I'd rather have the grey or something more neutral. In my last month's Ipsy bag I received an eyebrow pencil so getting another one wasn't too impressive and another mascara, its my favorite product but this will stay closed for a while because I have too many open right now. I was happy with the tinted balm because I needed a new red lip color!

 

 

                                                          NYX Single eye shadow - 4.50
                                                  Cailyn Cosmetics Tinted Lip Balm - 19.00
                                                       Elizabeth Its so Big mascara 19.99
                                                        Star Looks Kohl eyeliner 12.00
                                                    Victoria Jackson Brow Pencil 14.95

 

Swatches from L to R : Cailyn tinted lip balm in Big Apple, VJ taupe brow pencil, Star Look Kohl eyeliner in Obsidian & NYX eyeshadow in velvet suede (I wasn't impressed with the sheer blue color but the texture of this eye shadow is amazing. I am so in love with the smooth buttery way this shadow glides across my skin!)

 

 

Not counting my super cute makeup bag the total in cosmetic products is $70.44! Um wow defiantly worth the $10!! So if you are interested and want to sign up >> Join Ipsy Now!<<

The e-mail Ipsy sent me today....first product of the month NYX single eye shadow.

 

 

 

Sneak Peek #2 - Mascara! Look's like Elizabeth Mott "It's so Big" mascara

 

 

 

Sneak Peek #3

Sneak Peek #3 John Frieda Full Repair items, JCat Beauty Lipstick (in sandy-orange) & Pencil Liner, Caitlyn Cosmetics tinted lip balm in Big Apple, Freeman Facial Paper, Chella Ivory Lace Highlighter pencil, Pop Beauty lip crayon... I think that's what's going on in this picture.
