Well this is my first post on a Glam bag program. If you are not familiar with these, they are programs where you pay a certain amount of money each month and get samples of beauty products. I searched a bunch before I decided on IPSY. I selected this company, one because the price of only $10 a month, but more importantly because I would receive 4-5 deluxe & full-sized beauty products every month, that are based on what I like. The shipment comes around the same time each month and is packaged in a hot pink delivery bag. Furthermore, all of the beauty items come in a themed bag, what an awesome deal!
So without further ado, I bring to you June’s 2014 IPSY Glam Bag…It’s like a party at the beach minus the sand in your shorts. Whether you're soaking up the daytime sun or enjoying a golden sunset, being pretty in paradise is just a few moments away! Ladies, your plane has landed and ready to reveal this month’s beach’n beauty items.
The Bag:
Each month your products come in a nice bag. This month’s bag is designed by Rebecca Minkoff, its tropical look will really work great poolside or while soaking up the rays on the beach. Dream Waves Beach Spray, By Marc Anthony
I LOVE beach sprays and this one is pretty good. It even smells like the beach with its fresh coconut scent (the fragrance is amazing). This beach spray does some excellent stuff to my hair, especially the way it allows me to create gorgeous beach waves, with lots of body, lift, great hold, texture and more! Oh and let’s not forget it has hydrolyzed silk and provitamin B5 to protect the hair as it hydrates and leaves a shine. PS. You can get this product at Walgreens for only $6.49.
NYX Butter Gloss: NYX products are a great drug store brand, they actually dupe a lot of high end products. Needless to say, I was happy when I saw this in my bag. The color I received was APPLE STRUDEL (BLG08). But don’t let the name confuse you as it is not red or brown, but rather a coral color. This gloss, is very nourishing and has a sheer to medium coverage. Leaving your lips feeling kiss-ably smooth. Shimmer Eyeliner by Nicka K New York: While this eyeliner comes in 14 colors, IPSY subscribers only received one of two colors, which is green or blue. I received the green color. At first glance it looks like nail polish when applied, but once on, it can be smudged or kept with a hard line. Either way it was long wearing, great for a night out!
MDSolarSciences, Mineral Tinted Crème Broad Spectrum with SPF 30:
This works wonderfully as a natural tint. Plus it has a SPF, doesn’t clog your pores, nor does it feel heavy on the face! So wearing this to the beach for a bit of color is very optional. Lastly, I plan on using it as a face primer next, as I loved the idea of a non-greasy SPF, with Vitamin C to boot!
So there you have it dudettes, as you can see being pretty is only a glam bag away. So what do you think? And don't forget to join me on IPSY and subscribe to the Glam Bag! You get 4-5 beauty products every month delivered to your door, for just $10. Check it out HERE.
Surfs Up...with my IPSY reveal YouTube Video...
omg that's an awesome video! the tinted creme looks very cool to me
ReplyDeleteWow, it sounds like there was a lot of great stuff in there this month! I might have to check these out for myself.
ReplyDeleteThat bag is so cute! I'd have trouble keeping my daughters from taking it over as their own.
ReplyDeleteI love these bags! I wish shipping to Canada wasn't huge. A lot of these don't offer it or if they do it isn't worth it:( so sad
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like some great products. I want to try this.

ReplyDeleteI JUST canceled my IPSY subscription last month because I needed a little break. I like trying new boxes and companies but IPSY really proves to be the best. You cannot beat $10 a month for a bunch of great beauty goodies.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter gets an Ipsy subscription and she just loves it. She got some great products just like you and I think it is so worth it. It's really cheap and you get so much more than you paid.
ReplyDeleteThat's smart that you researched several subscription services before choosing this one. That tinted cream sounds great, I'd like to try it.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like it's worth the subscription price. Not all of them seem like that, so it's nice to see what all comes in this subscription service.
ReplyDeleteI love NYX brand products. Their lip stuff is all excellent. I will have to look for the apple strudel color!
ReplyDeleteI have heard great things about the Ipsy subscription! I don't currently do a subscription box but I have been considering this one.
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the video. Sounds like IPSY has a great program and nice things in their box. I have never had a subscription box before and it is probably time to think about doing so.
ReplyDeleteThis was by far my favorite makeup bag I got! I loved the pattern.
ReplyDeleteI'm not happy with the last 4 month boxes.This was my last month yet this box was way better.
