Ipsy Glam Bag: June 2016

Okay so if you've been following my blog for awhile, you remember last summer when I tried out the Ipsy makeup subscription. If you're unfamiliar with Ipsy or those posts, you can check out the post in which I explained what Ipsy here.

Overall, I felt that my experience with the company was average. I wasn't impressed nor was I disappointed. I ended my subscription with the company simply because I took a financial hit last August and I had to cut back on a lot of stuff including my Spotify subscription. Ipsy still sent me emails every now and then but I finally decided to resubscribe in late May.

So since I received my glam bag yesterday, let's get right to the review!

So here's what I got: Colourpop Cosmetics Creme Gel Eyeliner in the shade Swerve, Urban Decay eye shadow in Lounge, Frank Body Original Coffee Scrub, Hey Honey 24/7 Day & Night Revitalizing Cream and Elizabeth Mott Show Me Your Cheeks blush in Peach Pink. Ipsy always includes one full size product. This month's full size product was the coffee scrub.

Colourpop Cosmetics Creme Gel Eyeliner: $5 full size
Urban Decay eye shadow: $20 full size
Frank Body Original Coffee Scrub: $14.95 fill size
Hey Honey 24/7 Day & Night Revitalizing Cream: $38 full size
Elizabeth Mott Show Me Your Cheeks blush in Peach Pink: $23 full size

Honest Opinion: I like this month's products. I'm a big fan of Urban Decay so I'm interested in trying out the eye shadow although the shade is strange. I've never tried a coffee scrub before so I like that product. I think this might be the most expensive products I've received from Ipsy totaling up to over $100 full price. I really can't wait to try out all of these products!

Overall Rating: 4/5

August: Ipsy Glam Bag

My August glam bag just came in! As usual, it comes in a pink bubble wrap envelope (see last months post) with the glam bag tucked inside. This month's them is called the prep school bag! Isn't it cute?

So this is what I got this month: Marc Anthony Nourishing Argan Oil of Morocco Oil Treatment, Trust Fund Beauty nail polish in Elegantly Wasted, Pencil Me In Eye pencil in Boysenberry, Hikari Cosmetics lip gloss in Merlot and Dermalogica Clear Start Matte Moisturizer

Full Price:
Dermalogica Clear Start Matte Moisturizer $12-25 full size
Marc Anthony Nourishing Argan Oil of Morocco Oil Treatment $6.99 full size
Hikari Cosmetics lip gloss in Merlot $13
Pencil Me In Eye pencil in Boysenberry $6.99
Trust Fund Beauty nail polish in Elegantly Wasted $15

Honest Opinion:
I am in LOVE with the Hikari lip gloss! The color is perfect and the consistency works well. I can easily see myself wearing this gloss regularly. I tried the matte moisturizer but I don't have much to say about it. I don't really care much for moisturizers anyway. I'm not a fan of eyeliner pencils so I'm putting off using that right now. I prefer liquid eyeliner over pencils. I think as a whole, I'm very happy with this months glam bag. I can't wait for the next one!


Overall Rating: 4/5
I really can't wait until my next Ipsy bag comes! I decided I would give it three months before I gave my final decision on Ipsy as a whole. So far, I'm half and half. My first bag was some crap. This bag was so much better so it all comes down to next months bag. Let's see how it goes!
