Ipsy February 2014


Hii guys! I know this is kinda late, again, but I have really been busy with school!
This month's Ipsy was great! The theme is "The Look of Love" which is perfect for February and Valentines Day! The bag is pink with a white zipper and a pink leopard inside, I love it! In my bag this month I got:
1. Nume Intense Renewal Mask 
2. Tini Beauty Eyetini Cordial Cream Shadow + Base In One
3. Zoya Nailpolish 
4. City Color Be Matte Blush 
5. Pop Beauty Lipgloss

I really loved this month's bag and the items I got, so here are my reviews:
1. This mask is suppose to help with dry hair, I have not used this yet but I'm so excited to try it! 
2. Ok so let's talk cream eyeshadows, this one by Tini Beauty is GREAT! It is a metallic gold color, it can be used a base shadow or a color on your lid, either way it is really pigmented and beautiful! I love it!
3. Zoya Nailpolishes are great and in this month's bag we got a full size polish, I got the color Odette, which is a pretty purple color. The formula is amazing, 2 coats and a topcoat makes for a perfect mani!
4. This is pretty big full size matte blush, I love matte blushes so I am excited to try it but the color might be a little in the light side for my skin tone, we shall see.
5. Last and certainly least I got the Pop Beauty lipgloss in peony petal. It is a nice bright pinky color HOWEVER it smells like burning plastic! That is not appealing at all. So I emailed Ipsy and they are sending a replacement. We'll see how that goes.  

But overall, this months Ipsy was pretty good, 3 full size products that i really liked and maybe even loved. Additionally Ipsy is sending me a replacement lipgloss, yay! Their customer service is great, which makes their company even greater than it already is! You guys should really check them out and subscribe http://www.ipsy.com/r/2rby

Ipsy January 2014


Hi guys! I know this post is late but I have been so busy with school and life. Anyways lets get to it. This is my January Ipsy bag, minus one item that my mom took! This month's theme was 19 Reasons. In my bag I received the following items:
1. Healthy Sexy Hair Soy Tri-Wheat Leave In Conditioner
2. Apothederm® Bright Skin Serum
3. Absolute! Makeup Cleansing Tissue
4. MicaBeauty Tinted Lip Balm
5. (not pictured) Elizabeth Mott Smooth Shadow

This month's bag was not my favorite there was only one thing I really loved which was the lip balm. 
Here are my reviews of the items:
1. The leave in conditioner smells ok, however I already have oily hair so it is not for me, it would be good for someone with dry hair though..
2. Ok this serum is suppose to brighten skin, even tone and minimize pores. Lets just say that it does NONE of that! I have huge pores and it did nothing! If you want tight, dry skin then try using this product, I really hate it !
3. When I got these I thought they would be perfect for just throwing in my purse,  however when i got them and actually opened them they did not smell pleasing. They say that they are pomegranate extract scented however, to me they smell like alcohol, and I do not want to put that in my face!
4. Mica Beauty, you have made a fabulous lipbalm! I really love this lip balm it is really pigmented and hydrating ! It also came in a perfect natural color that I absolutely love! I would definitely buy this item when I'm finished with it!
5. The Elizabeth Mott eyeshadow stick was a nice color however I don't use shadow sticks so my mom took it. I can't really comment other than to say it was really creamy.

Overall, I did not like my Ipsy this month but there's always next month!
