This is my monthly Ipsy bag review! For those who don’t know what ipsy is, it’s a service that sends you 5 different makeup items (usually sample sizes) every month for only $10. You don’t get to pick your products, however, you do fill out a quiz and rate products in order for ipsy to better match your products to you as an individual.

FIRST: the bag

IMG_0708 2

It comes in shiny purple/pink packaging which I love, then you open it up and there’s this cute little card every month talking about the bag. This month’s bag was “much love” for Valentine’s day. The bag was denim with a orange zipper. I don’t like the bag this month and due to Ipsy sending me a new one every month I have so many bags that I don’t even know what to do with them so I threw this one away.

PRODUCTS:

This is the Luxie Beauty- Rose Gold Blush Brush 514 Purchase Here

This brush is incredibly soft. It is a nice brush for highlighting or adding a light blush. However, if you’re looking for something to give a lot of coverage this wouldn’t be the brush. Overall it’s a high quality brush and the fact that it’s pink just makes it better in my opinion.

This is the “Whatup Beaches” matte bronzer. Purchase Here

Not to be dramatic but this bronzer gives me life. I wish the sample wasn’t so awkward and tiny but I’ve been trying to find a truly matte bronzer that works with paler skin for a while now and I’ve officially found it.

This is the Nyx Butter Lipstick in the shade Ripe Berry Purchase Here

I’m just gonna come out and say this. I’m a matte lip/ liquid lipstick type of girl. This lipstick is a little satiny-borderline chapstick for my likings. The color is really pretty and it doesn’t dry your lips the way a lot of lipsticks do. It’s definitely a personal preference thing so if your into a wetter finish, check this out.

This is a lip and eye cream by the Organic Pharmacy Purchase Here (fair warning, it’s $48 for 10 ml…)

This stuff is crazy, I mean like crazy amazing. I put it on 2 days ago and the skin under my eyes is still firmer, more moisturized and less puffy. I tried it on my lips and didn’t really notice anything but I don’t have any fine lines or problem areas around my mouth. Overall this is a really nice product and this alone was worth my $10 this month, however I don’t think I’d be willing to fork over the $48 for another tube.

This is a nourishing coconut milk daily facial scrub, Ipsy’s link to the product is not working but it looks as though it’s a regular drug store product.

This is nothing fancy by any means, just your typical exfoliant scrub.

And that concludes my Ipsy Glam Bag this month, overall I was super impressed and as usual I felt like I got way more than my $10 worth of products.
