Unboxing // Ipsy September 2014

I received my Ipsy Glam Bag for September….Woohoo! This month’s theme was Street Style. I’m not exactly sure what that means, but I got some pretty good products so I’m happy! The bag is different from any that I’ve seen Ipsy put out before so it’s nice to see a change in bag scenery :)

Be A Bombshell Smooth Criminal Powder

To be honest, I didn’t know what this was at first! The primary use is for setting your makeup. But, I read that you can also use it as an eyeshadow base. It provides from a creaseless look while making the colors pop off of the white backdrop. I am definitely going to test this out the next time I wear eyeshadow.

The Perfect Bold Lip Color

August Favorites 2014

August ending is bitter sweet because school has started, but fall fashion is quickly approaching. I haven’t tried out very many new products this month but here are a few that I have been loving!

Neutrogena Fresh Foaming Cleanser

I love this because it washes dirt and unneeded oil off your face while taking makeup off. If you ever need a simple go to facial cleanser I would definitely recommend this one!

Unboxing // Ipsy August 2014

This month’s Ipsy bag fell under the theme of Beauty Schooled. This theme definitely fits well, given that many of us are going back to school soon. I’m not exactly sure how the products fit the theme but the bag definitely does. It is orange and white and is shaped like a cylinder, like a pencil case.

Urban Decay Perversion Mascara

All I have to say is WOW! This mascara is one of the best I have ever tried. It is super black and the brush allows for long yet thick lashes. There is a matching primer for this, however I did not receive it. Overall I would really recommend it to anyone who is in the market for a high-end mascara.

Drugstore Haul!

I decided to take a little trip to the drugstore to pick up a couple items. It is definitely a dangerous trip for my wallet because there are so many thing that I want to buy! I managed to restrain myself (well, kind of) and ended up leaving with just a few things. I have tried out all of these products a few times, so I am going to tell you what I think of them.

EOS Shaving Cream

This product was hyped up because of the well-loved EOS lip balms so I thought I would try it out. I can’t say that I was super amazed by the shaving cream.  I was expecting it to be a little bit thicker and therefore more moisturizing. The scent Pomegranate Raspberry smells great though.

Unboxing // Julep Maven

This month I received a Julep Maven box. This is a subsription service that is mainly nail polish based but they throw in a beauty product every once and a while. This was the first time I received one of these boxes so I thought I would tell you what I think of it!
