Hello everyone!
I know I went MIA for a while, but I hope now to be back!
So I just received my November ipsy bag! I was beyond thrilled to discover the theme this month was a space theme. I love space!
The theme this month was 'Beauty Blast'.
I loved this bag; not just the design of the actual makeup bag, but every product inside too.
I received five fabulous products!
Albertini International: Warm Love Pumpkin Exfoliating Mask
First off, this mask smells amazing. It smells like pumpkin spice and it actually works pretty well! I was so surprised at how soft and nice smelling it made my skin feel. It also has a warming effect after massaging it into your skin after a few minutes. The only thing that wasn't so great was the small chunks of what I'm assuming was pumpkin in it. It wasn't the easiest to spread over my face with the chunks, but that's part of the exfoliating so it's necessary.
4.5/5
Be A Bombshell: Mechanical Eye Liner
I was at first extremely excited to receive this product. I love eyeliners, and I've heard good things about the Be A Bombshell brand. Unfortunately, I was disappointed. It was so hard to apply, the tip was extremely pointed and hard to apply directly to the eye. I couldn't even use it very well. However, it would be a great product to create a smokey eye with.
3/5
Smashbox: Full Exposure Mascara
Every ipsy subscriber received one of these trial sized mascaras in their box. I was a little hesitant because the last mascara I got last month, the IT Cosmetics mascara, was clumpy and didn't look so great. However, I've heard great things about Smashbox so I was eager to try it. It is actually awesome. It added volume, curled, and wow did it lengthen! It went on a little awkward because the wand is so short, but the actual product is so worth it.
5/5
Dermelect: 'ME' Peptide Infused Lacquer in the shade Commando
At first I hated the color. It was a weird nude color and I thought it'd look really bad. But when I saw it in person and then applied it, I absolutely fell in love. It's a rosy, brown nude and it is actually very pretty. In some lights it's more brown, in others more of a mauve. It is also infused with peptides which means it's good for your nails. It helps strengthen and resists chipping.
5/5
tre'StiQue: Mini Matte Lip Crayon in the shade Florence Fig
As soon as I saw 'matte lip' I was sold. And this did not disappoint. It was a gorgeous color, a perfect dark, rosy nude. It went on so smooth and felt amazing. It's moisturizing and the color payoff is incredible. I am so in love with it!
5/5
So that's all I got in my ipsy bag this month! I am so happy that I got all things that I know I will use. I can't wait for the next month!
Thanks for stopping by!
Much love,
Dana
