This month, the Ipsy bag is actually really cute. I don’t really care for the design, but for some reason the crazy colors and laminated fabric won me over. It might be the mom in me, but I am thinking of using this bag for snacks in the diaper bag. Or not. I have to think of something to do with all of these cute Ipsy bags though!
So the Flawless Beauty Primer by Pixi Beauty is a great product. It covers really well and gives you this nice shine that makes it look like you have a tan…without actually having a tan. You know, the tan effect. It seems to bring a little light and shimmer to your face and brighten you up. Thanks, Ipsy!
The OPI nailpolish is a textured “Roughfles,” (like “ruffles”) polish in color “On What Grounds.” It is almost a Robin’s egg blue color, slightly speckled, and rough/bumpy in texture. It almost feels like a light sandpaper after it dries. It’s kind of a neat feel, but I think I would add some top coat to make it a little smoother. With the texture as is, I want to run my fingers over my nails all day, which makes the nail polish chip faster. Cute polish though!
I love this miniature lipstick sample from Marvelous Moxie! The color is called “Get Ready,” and it is slightly darker or bolder than I would typically wear, but it is just within the boundaries enough that I think I might use it a bit! Plus it’s a super cute size… Normally I would be say, “Aw, man. A sample size, not a full-sized product,” but this seems to be a perfect size if Ipsy is going to send bolder colors that people might stray away from normally.
I love this Bora Bora pallette by Be a Bombshell because it kind of pushes me to try a bold color. Of course, the neutrals I am going to wear because…everything I buy is practical. I like that I have this little turquoise pop that is making me consider how I could use such a bright color without looking like Lady Gaga. So far, it’s really pretty as an eyeliner. The last time Ipsy sent me blue eyeshadow, I hated it, but this color is much more modern and trendy.
Even though there are only 4 products this month, I really like all of them. I would say four out of five stars.
