Ipsy Glam Bag: February

Glam Bag February

Hey there Ipsters. I’m going to cut to the chase and go ahead and say that this is my favorite Ipsy bag that I’ve received thus far. The only thing that was remotely disappointing was the bag which was just plain pink . But I don’t subscribe to Ipsy for the bag, I subscribe to try new products and these ones are really exciting.

NUME Intense Renewal Hair Mask – I have never tried anything from NUME but I’ve heard good things about their products. I’ve been making an effort to take better care of my hair so this was right up my alley. It made my hair feel like silk and I can’t be mad at that.

POP Beauty Plump Pout Mini in Peony Petal – I was a little hesitant after not loving the lip crayon from POP in a previous box. This, totally made up for it! First off, the packaging is precious…I love anything tiny. The formula is very creamy and full color but not overly sticky. The color Peony Petal is a very pretty rosy pink that would look good with a ton of different looks. I’m interested in trying out some more of these

Tini Beauty Eyetini Cream Shadow in Spiced Rum – This beautiful bronzey cream shadow was a pleasant surprise. Cream shadows can either go on patchy or crease and this one does neither. It goes on super opaque and metallic and blends out just enough so that you don’t have any harsh lines.

City Color Be Matte Blush in Fresh Melon – What a GORGEOUS color for Spring. I couldn’t get the color to show up right on camera but it’s a bright melon…as the name suggests. It doesn’t go on powdery or patchy and I’m excited to wear it come Spring. Not to mention, it’s huge so it’ll last forever.

Zoya Polish in Odette – This color is right on trend for Spring. Orchid is were it’s at! I love the formula of Zoya polish and this color is a great addition to my growing collection.

So yeah, I’m pretty much in love with all of the products this month. Way to go Ipsy!

Ipsy Glam Bag: October

October Glam Bag

October Glam Bag


Hey there Ipsters! In the wise words of my dear friend Shan: This month’s bag is baller! And I agree! It’s probably my favorite ones that I’ve gotten yet.
Let’s start off with the super cute bag itself: Love of beauty is taste. The creation of beauty is art. Preach! I could sit here and look at fierce makeup looks all day! Some people paint, sculpt, draw…I use faces as my canvas. And I love it!

Now on to the goodies:
LA Fresh Oil-Free Face Cleanser Wipes – I’ve seen LA fresh on Hautelook and other sites and have wanted to try the brand so I was happy to see these. I can always use a good makeup wipe. I’ll be taking these on some upcoming trips.

Big Sexy Hair Blow Dry Volumizing Gel – I love the Big Sexy brand. Like I mentioned in my Procrastinating Beauty Blogger tag, I don’t often blow dry my hair. But when I do, it can use all the help it can get! Volume is something that is seriously lacking when I dry my hair straight so hopefully this will be something that will help a sister out.

Nourish Organic Coconut & Argan Body Lotion – This stuff smells AMAZING! I love coconut. It’s got Argan and is 100% Organic and does a pretty darn good job. I have super dry skin, especially this time of year and this is the perfect size to throw in my purse for moisture on the go. It says it’s available exclusively at Target so I may go and check out some more fragrances.

Zoya Nail Polish in Giovanna – A PERFECT color for fall. Emerald green is always in in my book. Zoya nail polishes are great. This is going on my toes next.

Buxom Full-On Lip Polish in Dolly – Another product that is a party on your lips. It gives that plumping tingle that I love! The color is a pretty shimmery pink that is a great accent color for the middle of the lip to give some more dimension. I’ve never tried any Buxom products before this and I likey.

So go get you a Glam Bag. I feel they are getting better and better!

Ipsy Glam Bag: May

Posted on by

I’ve been wanting to try a beauty subscription service for a while now. (I do get the Beauty Test Tube from QVC but it only comes 4 times a year) I went and did some research and after coming across one too many unfavorable reviews on BirchBox, I decided to go with Ipsy! Ipsy was started by beauty bloggers and YouTube beauty Gurus so of course, I had to throw my support their way. They have partnerships with some great brands that include Urban Decay, NYX, Josie Maran, and The Balm, just to name a few. And as an extra bonus, your items come in a different cute little cosmetic bag and you get special discounts on full sizes of products featured that month. I just received my first bag and I am not disappointed.

Ipsy May Glam Bag

Ipsy May Glam Bag


Here’s what I got in my first “Glam Bag”:
Pacifica: Island Vanilla Perfume Roll-on:
This smells amazing. I used to have a Blood Orange Body Butter from the brand that I loved so I’m excited to try something else from the brand. Plus it’s not just a little, teeny sample, but an actual roll-on size product.
Anastasia: Travel Size Clear Brow Gel:
I’ve heard great things about the Anastasia line’s brow products. Brow Gel is not something I would spend a lot of money on so it’s nice to have a small ‘fancy’ one.
Mirabella: Colour Sheers Lipstick in Posy
A full size lipstick ya’ll! This has the consistancy of a lip butter and feels very good on the lips. I love the color too! It comes off pretty sheer and says it has a mango butter base to nourish your lips. Oh La La! I’ve never heard of the brand but that’s why I do this, to try new things!
Yaby: Concealer Refill in Honey:
Let me start off by saying that the actual product seems awesome. I swatched it on my hand, and the consistancy and coverage is amazing. I’m only disappointed because they sent me totally the wrong color. Like, I had to go back to my profile to make sure I didn’t screw something up….but it definitely says FAIR. Honey is the brand’s second to darkest color. NOT for a fair skinned person. Oh well, I’ll put in in my kit and I’m sure it will work great on someone with the right skintone. I’ll probably end up purchasing it in my color though, maybe even a range of colors to put in my professional kit. I liked it that much.
Zoya: Nail Polish in Gie Gie:
Again, I’ve heard great things about this brand of polish and was so excited to see another full size product in my bag! It’s a precious baby pink color with silver sparkle. Perfect for the season and I can’t wait to try it out!

All in all, I’m thrilled with my first Ipsy experience! Super cute bag, (because who can’t have enough cosmetics bags), a couple full size products and some new brands to try. Everything I was hoping for. Use the link below if you want to try out Ipsy for yourself. For only $10 a month, you can’t go wrong!!!!
