Ipsy November 2014- Review

Hi! Today I have a review for the Ipsy subscription service bag. This is a monthly beauty box subscription that costs $10 per month. Each month you receive 4-5 full size or deluxe sized products.  

1) Starlooks Gem Eye Pencil- This is an olive shimmery eyeliner. I typically do not wear eyeliner just cause it is an extra step that I am not very good at. But this is smooth and pigmented pretty good.
Price: $17

2) J. Cat Beauty Wonder Lip Paint- This is a lip paint (or tar) and IS EXTREMELY PIGMENTED. The bottle is a squeeze bottle so I guess you either use a brush or your finger. The color is a bright pinky red and I don't think I will really use this color because I normally just use a chapstick and maybe a lipgloss. 

Price: $5

3)  It Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye- This product is a concealer and it matches my skin almost perfectly. It is supposed to be a full coverage concealer, which I really like cause I am not a big fan of foundation. The quality feels good and like it will cover really good. 

Price: $24

4) SeaRx Skincare- This is a moisturizer. I received 2 of these, but 1 of them exploded in the bag. I personally do my like getting skincare samples. I have a set skincare routine that works for me. 

Price: $32

5) Marc Anthony Oil of Morocco Argan of Volume Shine Hairspray- This is a travel size hairspry. I like getting these travel hairsprays cause they are useful and I travel a lot. 

Price: $8

 

Overall I am excited for the concealer and eyeliner. The hairspray is ok. I do not like the moisturizer and the lip tar is to pigmented. Ipsy this month was pretty good. Below is a swatch of the eyeliner and lip tar.

Ipsy September 2014- Review

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
