Ipsy Bag Review.. May!

May Ipsy Bag Review

Hey everyone! Today we’re going to talk about what I received in my May Ipsy bag. Not sure if Ipsy is for you? Read my post from my Ipsy Glam Bag Unboxing! post where I tell you all about it!

This month’s bag is a cute little envelope shape snap front bag. It’s coral, which is such a wonderful Spring color, and it has white buildings and landmarks on it. It’s really cute and it’s a decent size for a makeup bag.

In my glam bag this month, I received Crazy Rumors HibisKiss Natural Lip Color in Coral. This is a nice lip balm, that provides great moisture. It’s slightly shimmery, so it makes it more interesting than a typical balm.

I also received Pacifica Natural Mineral Coconut Eye Shadow Trio. This is a great little eye shadow kit! The colors are really light and on the warm shade sides. Each of the colors in this trio are shimmery. There is a lighter shade, which is great for the upper lid near the brow line. There is a more red shade that is great for the crease of the lid. There is a darker more purple shade that is great for the outer crease if you wanted to create a slight smoky eye with this trio, you definitely could do that.

Next we have Glamour Dolls Blending Brush #10 Sperm Whale Edition. This brush – I can’t. I absolutely LOVE this brush. First of all, the handle is so super cute it is bright blue and covered in little white sperm whales (hence the name). The bristles are super soft. This brand is cruelty free, so the bristles are synthetic. I have been using this brush as a blending brush for my shadows since I received it earlier this month. I definitely think this little guy is earning a place in my daily routine!

I also received Etat Libre d’Orange Remarkable People Fragrance. I’ve taken the Ipsy quiz and reviewed similar fragrance products before and have said that I just don’t want these, but they still slip one in every once in a while. I don’t have an issue with perfumes, but I feel like scents are just something that I want to pick for myself. So, I don’t enjoy this fragrance and I haven’t used it. It is very strong and way too overpowering for my liking. Someone else may love it, but it just isn’t for me! This is just one thing about Ipsy that I will continue to recommend – if you don’t like something, make sure you review the products and/or retake the quiz so they can get it right for you!

Finally, I have saved the best for last, Smashbox X-Rated Mascara. I’d consider myself a mascara addict. I cannot and will not leave my house without applying mascara (even if I have no other makeup on, you can bet I’m wearing mascara). I am in love with this brand and I really love this formula. This is a great mascara for anyone who is looking for length and subtle volume. I like the way this makes my lashes look and I would definitely consider purchasing the full-size version of this product in the future.

So, that’s it for this month! Do you subscribe to Ipsy? Let me know what you received in the comments below!
