Subscription Sunday - Ipsy September

It's been awhile since I posted a review on a Sunday.  My Ipsy bag this month was a-ma-zing so I had to share it.

I love Ipsy for a lot of reasons: the price (only $10/month), the fact that they send me things based on my profile (I feel like Birchbox did not), and the cute little makeup bag that comes with each package (although I have a lot now and don't use half of them!).

1.  Briogeo: Don't Despair Repair: This is a deep conditioning hair mask.  I haven't used it yet but it smells amazing.

 

2.  NYX Eyeshadow: This color is one I would normally pick out for myself for every day.  It's gold-ish, and goes on a little shimmery.  (And if you look closely, you can see my reflection taking the picture, oops)

 

3.  Pacifica Nail Polish: This is a deep red, perfect for fall.  It goes on smoothly and hasn't chipped yet, on Day 2.  With two littles, this is a big accomplishment!

 

4.  Mega Eyes Eye Marker: in black.  This is perfect when I want to add a little more for a night out.  Really easy to use!

 

5.  Cailyn Tinted Lip Gloss: This is a perfect color for every day.  Not sticky, goes on smooth.  Doesn't last forever, but I wouldn't expect a long wearing gloss.

 

6.  Crown Brush Infinity: Shadow and crease brush.  I've been needing a new shadow brush so this is perfect!

 

Overall, I really, really loved my Ipsy bag this month.  This is one of the subscription boxes that I don't think I'll ever end - it's the perfect way to sample new products that I wouldn't normally get otherwise.

 

I hope you are all having a fabulous weekend!  Come back tomorrow - I might or might not be having a giveaway.... :)

Subscription Sunday - Ipsy

I'm not the best at doing my makeup.  Most days I do something really natural and quick.  Quick is key as I don't normally have a lot of time to myself during the day.  Every once and awhile I like to spice it up, but don't have a lot of time to shop for new products.  Ipsy is the perfect solution!  They ship products to try, based on your profile, each month for $10. 

Pacifica Eyeshadow Duo:  These are great colors for me.  Something I would pick out myself - and I love the hint of shimmer it provides.

Avene Spring Water: I would never buy this myself, but it instantly takes me back to vacation at the Ritz Carlton in St. Thomas, where someone would walk around and spritz the sunbathers with Evian water.  Take me back NOW!

Hey Honey! Peel Off Mask: I tried this last night.  My skin felt really smooth after and it was easy to peel.

Jersey Shore Sun Sunscreen: I was kind of bummed to get this.  I use sunscreen every day anyway, so this won't be used much.  I might throw it in the diaper bag for when I'm out and about and can feel my nose/ears getting too much sun.

Pur-lisse Moisterizer: Another item for the diaper bag/purse.  It's the perfect size to carry with me in the winter.

This is my second Ipsy bag and I'm still loving it!  Overall I wish I had gotten more makeup, instead of products, but still love this bag.  Can't wait for next month!
