Ipsy Bag Review- September 2014

Hi! Ipsy is a monthly beauty bag subscription service. You get 5 full size, or deluxe size, products and a cute makeup bag. Plus, the bag is only $10 per month! This box is an awesome way to try new products, or ones you might never have chosen.

1) Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Polish Top Coat and Red Color- This is a gel nail polish that does not need a light. I used this top coat and it made my nails not chip for a week. Also, the brush is more of a rectangle then circle so it gets most of your nail in on swipe.                                           Price- $15           

2) Cailyn Art Touch Tinted Lip Gloss- This lip gloss is in  the shade 09 basic instinct. It is SUPER pigmented and is a natural brown/ pink-ish color. 

 Price: $19



3)  Be a Bombshell Smooth Face Powder- This is a translucent powder. It has a cornstarch like texture and looks like it will keep my face very matte. 
Price- $12

4) Pacifica Natural Minerals Brown Eyeliner- This is a creamy eyeliner that could be easily smudged out or made into a solid line. Also, this eyeliner claims it is waterproof.                                  Price: $11

5) Briogeo Don't Despair Repair! Deep Conditioning Mask- This is a hair mask that has a faint fruity smell. It smells really good should hopefully make my hair super soft.             Price: $26 

Overall this box was very good and I was pretty happy with it this month. Total cost of box- $83

Primer Potion-Review

Urban Decay Primer Potion Review

Hey lovelies!  This product is an eye shadow primer from Urban Decay that goes for $20 from Ulta.  I have SUPER oily eyelids and this is one of the only primers that keeps my eye shadow from not creasing.  I have tried nyx and elf and they did not work for me.  This product comes in 4 versions (original, anti-aging, sin, eden, and greed).  I have the original one and it is a skin color that blends into your skin nicely and covers the veins on your eyelids.  My eyeshadow may fade a little (not to bad though) throughout the day, but it never creases.  

This product may be a little pricey for a primer, but it is miracle worker!  I never have to worry about my eye shadow creasing.  A little product goes a long way, so it takes forever to use up.

Naked Basics- Review

Naked Basics Eye Shadow Palette Review

Hi!  This eye shadow palette is by Urban Decay Cosmetics and goes for $29 at Ulta.  This palette has 6 colors a shimmery white (venus), yellow toned skin color (foxy), pink toned skin color (W.O.S.), light brown (naked 2), a dark brown (faint), and a black (crave).

All of the colors in this palette are super creamy and soft.  I use this palette everyday and it is great for traveling because it is a small palette and has an awesome mirror.  The brown is a great crease and brow color.  Overall, this palette is AWESOME.  It may be a little pricey but it is worth it all because it is a great everyday neutral color palette.
