October Lip Monthly!

Hello Lovelies!

Recently a crop of new beauty subscriptions have been popping up, when I heard of Lip Monthly I thought that it would be a fun one! I liked the thought of a beauty sub catered just to your lips and for only $10 I thought I would give it a try!

October's Bag

The bag is really cute!

J.Cat Beauty Fantabulous Lipstick in Honeycrisp RTV $2.99

This is a nice nude color and I would have liked but when I opened it up (it was not sealed) a hair was attached to the lipstick as if someone had opened it already.

DeVine Lip Shimmer in Pinot Noir RTV $4.95

This smells so good, it is like a grape exploded in my nose, I love it! 

 Noyah Lip Balm RTV $3.99

This smells absolutely delicious! I love chapsticks that are all natural! This chapstick really moisturizes my lips! (Use code lipmonthly at noyah.com for a 20% discount!

 Starlooks Lip Sugar Scrub Sample Sized RTV $2

When I first saw this I was really excited, I LOVE lip scrubs, and then I opened it and it literally looks like they just put brown sugar into a jar or something. This was another product that was not sealed. It is also very dry like it might be old. I included a picture from Starlooks site of what they show their scrub to look like and they are completely different!

 L.A. Girls Eyeliner Pencil in Black Brown RTV $3

I'm not a big fan of this drugstore brand to be honest, the liner isn't too bad but it definitely isn't the smoothest pencil liner.

 

 

Overall between finding a hair on the lipstick, the dried out lip scrub and the L.A. Girls eyeliner I am not impressed with this bag. The only items I enjoyed were the chapsticks. I have already canceled this bag, I think a lot of customers have canceled theirs as well because now when you go to the cancel button it will try to tempt you to stay with a 20% off your next month's bag.

OCTOBER IPSY BAG!

Hello Lovelies!!

It is that time of the month, I got my Ipsy bag!!! I know a lot of people are tired of getting monthly beauty subscriptions and samples, but I am definitely not one of them! It feels like Christmas every month getting these in, a little treat for yourself is always nice! 

If you don't know what Ipsy is, it is a monthly beauty subscription that sends you 4-5 beauty samples, and sometimes full size items for only $10 per month, plus it always comes with a make up bag! Want to join Ipsy, CLICK HERE. 

October's Bag

 Epice International Purifying Exfoliant 1 oz

Full size is 3.30 fl oz rtv $ $32

At first when I squeezed a bit of this out I thought it was a lotion, but when I rubbed it around I can definitely feel the micro beads. It has a subtle clean smell, that won't be over powering, I cannot wait to give this a try!

 Doll 10 Beauty H2Glo Highlighter in Champagne 0.15 oz

Full size is 0.35 oz and retails for $30

This is a great sized deluxe sample! I was so happy to see this in my bag, I love trying new highlighters! The formula is really nice, this highlighter is subtle and perfect for an every day look!

 MICA Beauty Cosmetics Shimmer Powder Eyeshadow in 93 Reluctance 0.10 oz Full size! RTV $14

At first I was not excited to see this eyeshadow in here, but then I swatched it, and it is so beautiful! It swatched really smooth and buttery and has great pigmentation.

I would buy this eyeshadow, and I would definitely recommend it!

Fig & Rouge Nourishing and Smoothing Hand Cream in Mango Mandarin 0.67 oz / 20 ml, Full size! RTV $6.56!

This smells so incredibly good! I love Mango Mandarin scents! The packaging on this is cute as well, I love the cap, it reminds me of L'Occitane caps!

 Starlooks Mini Lip Gloss in Guilty Pleasure

Full Size RTV $12

Usually I dislike the many lipglosses that Ipsy sends out but I can't complain about this one, it is a nice color that I can actually use!!! The gloss is quite sticky but the color is pretty and pigmented. 

Overall I'm going to give October's Ipsy Bag a 10/10!! That is right I gave this bag a 10!!!!!! I will use every single one of these products, the colors are great, the pigmentation is great, exfoliants are always nice as well as great smelling hand cream! I haven't tried most of the brands, and that is something that I look for in these bags, something new, or something I WANT to try before purchasing. I am so pleased with this bag, great job Ipsy!!! Hoping for a great month next month too!
