June Ipsy Bag Review

It's like Christmas every month! lol

Hi, all!

I've been a subscriber to ipsy for a while now and thought I'd share what I got this month. In case you haven't heard of it, ipsy is a beauty product subscription service that's only $10 per month. And you always get your money's worth. This month's bag had four full-sized products and one deluxe sample-sized product.

First up, my favorite thing out of this bag is a full-sized NYX's Butter Gloss in Éclair. This gloss really stays around, hydrating my lips for hours. The pigmentation is good. The color is a beautiful, everyday, go-with-anything pink. It's not sticky at all. It retails for $5.

My next favorite thing is a full-sized Jessie's Girl Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner in Black. It comes with a calligraphy-style brush applicator, is soooooo easy to use, and really is waterproof, but comes off easily with eye makeup remover. The pigmentation is amazing. It truly is black and not a washed-out grey. This retails for $6.99.

Next up is a ten pack of OLEHENRIKSEN truth to go wipes. They have a yummy orangey scent, are packed with vitamins and all sorts of benefits for the skin, and are missing bad things like parabens and sulfates. They retail for $9 for a 10 pack and $15 for a 30 pack.

I also loved the deluxe sample size of Marc Anthony True Professional Dream Waves Beach Spray. It really did give my natural waves an extra bump and it smells amazing. It's really like a day at the beach. I'm going to save the rest of it for when my hair is longer. The sample is 45ml, while the full size bottle is 125ml. The full size retails for $8.79, but is on sale for $6.99 currently. The sample I received would be $3.16 full retail price.

Now on to my least favorite: Be A Bombshell Lash Out Mascara in Intense Black. It really doesn't do it for me. If you like a natural look to your eyelashes, this would totally work for you. I like eyelashes that you can see from miles away. I have to work at this forever to get it to show up on my lashes. (Ain't nobody got time for that! lol) On the positive side, it doesn't flake or smudge, and it's easily removed with eye makeup remover. I've received other Be A Bombshell products from ipsy and they've all been great, but mascara is so personal. What works wonderfully for one person won't always work for someone else. It retails for $15.

So, if you've been counting, my $10 bag (and, yes, you get a reusable bag every time) totaled up to $39.15. Good deal, right?
