It's
time for my monthly Ipsy Bag opening. I had been watching the
tracking information on this package most of last week and had really
hoped it would arrive on the scheduled delivery day which was last
Friday. Unfortunately, it was delayed in the transit and I wasn't
able to get my hands on it until Monday. Rest assured I opened it up
as soon as I had the chance.
My
first impression of the bag is I love the colors and design. I have
actually been looking at a very similar digital paper to use in my
planner for stickers. I love the design, I love the colors it is
beautiful. I am not totally crazy with the texture of the fabric it
is made of but I do love it nonetheless.
Our
theme this month is Beauty Blast, very fitting given the bag design.
Now
for the products:
The
first item out of the bag was the mascara from Smashbox. I have been
wanting to try something from this company for a while now and I was
about to order myself a new mascara so the timing on this is perfect.
Now the question is will I like this product. Here is a link to the
Smashbox Full Exposure Mascara- it looks like the full size retails
for $20, it might tempt me if I like it enough.
Next
up was the Aromachology Exotic and Spicy Perfume. I am not a huge fan of this one but I think
I know someone that might love it. I will have to give it to her and
see what she thinks. According to the information I found on the web
this perfume has top notes of honeysuckle, rose and pink jasmine. Mid
notes of gardenia, orange blossom and ginger. And bottom notes of
musk, sandalwood, moss, cinnamon, nutmeg and black pepper. I am
pretty sure the scents of the bottom notes are what turn me off to
it. I love everything else mentioned but for me especially the musk
and sandalwood are not fragrances I enjoy wearing. If you do I think
this would be lovely and the bottle of the full size is beautiful, it
by the way retails for $70, not too bad for a fragrance you love.
The
third item out of the bag was a Colourpop eye shadow. I have seen
these on a lot of YouTube videos and have been wanting to try some
for myself. I have to say the color is wonderful, I absolutely love
it! I can't wait to try it out. This one retails for $5 and I think
would be worth it.
Our
fourth item out of the bag was a tub of gel eyeliner in Navy from
Beaute Basics. I do love gel eyeliner and I don't have any in navy so
this is another item I am excited to try out. This is an example of
a product I couldn't fine online so I have not more information on
it.
Lastly
was a tube of Hey honey facial scrub, I looked it up and I don't see
anything that is citrusy in the ingredient list but I sure feel like
it smells of grapefruit. I am planning to try this one out within a
day or two. I have been really lax about my skin care routine the
last couple of weeks and my skin is really not feeling all that great
so I am hoping this will be just the thing to get me back on track.
The full size of this product retails for $23.
So
there you have the contents of my Ipsy bag this month. I am very
pleased with it this month since they managed to send me a couple of
things I have been wanting to try.
Did
