May Ipsy Bag 2014

It's Ipsy bag time! 

This months theme was 'Fresh Picks'. I think this was geared towards spring and getting ready for summer and warmer weather. 

So what did I get? 

I actually like the bag this month. I just wish it didn't say ipsy all over it. I love the leaves and earthy colors/details. 


This is the Pacifica mineral eyeshadow duo. This looks almost exactly like the Stila All Over Shimmer Duo, which I already own. I didn't include swatches, but the pigmentation for the bronze shade is great, but the pink side is a little light and chalky. I will probably use this for a highlight rather than an eyeshadow. I was excited about this because I haven't got anything like this before in an ipsy bag!

The next is a mini delux sample of the Too Faced Chocolate Soleil bronzer. I own the full size of the milk chocolate one, but I always wondered if I would like the original one better! I'm excited to try this out with out buying the full size. 

This is the Eva NYC Therapy Session Hair Mask. I don't really use hair masks (even though I really should). I hope I try this one out though! 

This is sunscreen by the brand Hang Ten. It's called Classic Sport SPF 50. This is a nice travel size sunscreen that I can take with me easily. I usually hate sunscreens but this one doesn't smell too strong of SPF and it's not greasy at all. It actually has a slight coconut/tropical scent to it. 

This is the Avene Thermal Spring Water Spray. I don't really understand what this is exactly. The description says it's a pure spring water mist that benefits sensitive skin by reducing redness, itchiness, and inflammation. I have never used anything like this before and I'm somewhat skeptical. 

Overall this bag was decent because of the bronzer and shadow duo! 

What did you get in your ipsy bag tis month? Let me know in the comments!

August Ipsy Bag!

Hello! I finally received my Ipsy bag in the mail today and I wanted to share here on my blog what came in it! I love getting these in the mail and I look forward to it every month! It feels like I'm getting presents lol. I thought this months bag was pretty good and I'm excited to try all of the products that I got. I will probably do some reviews for a few of the products once I try them out.


I love the purple and gold colors in the bag this month, it's super pretty. From left to right the products I got are a sample of the new Urban Decay lipsticks, a Pixi lash booster mascara, a Mica beauty pigment, a Pacifica mineral BB cream, and a Michael Todd jojoba charcoal face scrub.


Here is a picture of the Urban Decay Lipstick in the color called Anarchy. It's super hot pink color.
Here is a swatch of the lip stick and of the Mica Beauty pigment in the color bronze. I love gold/bronze colored eyeshadows so this is perfect for me.

Here is the BB cream and the face scrub. The BB cream looked a little dark for my skin, but maybe once I blend it into my skin it will be okay. The face scrub looks a little weird lol.

Here is a close up of the mascara. I have not really tried any products by this brand before so we shall see how I like this mascara!


Thank you all for reading and I hope you enjoyed!
