March Glam Bag (Ipsy)




So happy to see this months bag has a print! 

What was in the bag:

  • 2 Yaby eyeshadows. The colors I got were azalea petal and seashell. 
  • Juice Beauty Hydrating Mist
  • GlamRx Mini Freestyle Palette
  • LA Lite Travel Lite Makeup Removers

Again I was a bit disappointed with this months bag.  The eyeshadows are alright ( I haven't tried them yet) but we did get eyeshadows last month. The mini freestyle palette is nice but small. I copied the idea for how to put last months eyeshadows in the palette from a picture Ipsy posted of someone who did the same. The makeup removers I will probably keep on hand for travel. And the mist I am not to sure how I feel about the smell just yet. 






For next months bag I am hoping for a lip product. 

 I figured I would give the bag and products a grade from now on.

February Glam Bag (Ispy)




This is going to be a short post because honestly I have not tried anything that came in this months bag yet. So I can't really give any kind of review other than my first thoughts after seeing the products.Which was I was a bit disappointed at the sizes of the products this month after January's were so big. But I know that every month is going to be different and some months are going to be better than others. I definitely still think its worth the $10 a month.

The bag itself was also a bit disappointing. Black again and smaller than last months. I hope they do some fun patterns with future bags like they did last year.

The products in the bag were:


  1. Coastal Scents Shadow Palette Sample
  2. Pixi Flawless and Poreless
  3. Pop Smokey Lash Kapow Mascara
  4. MicaBeauty Gel Liner
  5. Lash Card The Lash Card

January Glam Bag (Ipsy)

After stalking my mailman for a week, I finally got my first Ispy Glam Bag.  Ipsy is a monthly subscription were for $10 a month you receive a bag of 5 beauty items which are deluxe samples and/or full size items. My mom signed me up for a year in December as a birthday gift. Its going to be like its my birthday every month, which is awesome! I thought I would give you all my thoughts on this months bag.



The bag itself is alright. The outside is just a plain blueish black. Inside is cuter. It is blue with white stars. Decent size.

The first item is a Nailtini nail polish. I got the color frappe, a  neutral with slight pink. I had been hoping for the red polish called bloody mary (the other option).  I have a few neutral polishes already and since I tend not to wear them that often, the nail polish was a bit disappointing. Also, even with a top coat I found that it chipped more than some of my other polishes. 


Next we have Pacifica Tuscan Blood Orange Body Butter. I have a ton of lotions so I didn't really need more. However it has been super cold and my skin has been super dry so having the extra moisture of a body butter is definitely needed. Plus this smells super yummy and it is a great size for my purse.


Then when have SOHO "Get a Grip" Concealer Brush. I had been hoping for the Eyeliner or Crease brush, the other two options. I tired using the concealer brush but it didn't really work with the concealer I am using at the moment. I find that using my fingers works better. I don't mind getting a makeup brush though since my collection of makeup brushes is small. I may end up using this brush for something other than concealer down the road.

Next is Joise Moron 100% Argan Oil. I have never really used oils so this product is exciting to try. So far I have only used it once, so I don't have a real opinion yet other than I am looking forward to using it more.

Lastly we have Sexy Hair Spray and Play Volumizing Hair Spray. I mostly use a little bit of hairspray when I want to keep flyaway hair down. I have never been a big hairspray person. However I am excited to try (I haven't tried it yet) this hairspray when I want to have some extra volume in my hair.

So that was January's Glam Bag. Overall not to bad of a bag. Super excited to see what is in February's Glam Bag.  Hoping for some makeup items.
