Ipsy Glam Bag Review – August 2014

Ipsy is a monthly beauty and makeup subscription where you get full or deluxe size samples of a variety of products and a cute makeup bag.  I initially tried Birchbox, another beauty subscription, but after a few months of disappointing products, I decided to try Ipsy.  This is my third month with Ipsy and so far I have been very pleased with my glam bags!

Ipsy sends out different variations of the glam bag each month. Here’s what I got in mine:

Urban Decay Perversion Mascara

This mascara gives you both volume and length in only a few strokes.  It did not smear or smudge and lasted all day.  The only downfall for me was that it was not waterproof.

Verdict:  

Absolute Lip Balm in Green Apple

The scent reminded me of the Jolly Rancher green apple hard candy that I loved when I was younger.  The scent is not overpowering, it glides on your lips and is not sticky.

Verdict:   

Coastal Scents Blush Duo

This small sample of powder blushes have two pigmented shades in Fresh (peach) and Elegant (pink).  The pink was perfect for my skintone and lasted all day.

Verdict: 

Lord & Berry Silk Kajal Kohl Eye Pencil

This eyeliner was difficult to apply, tugged at my eyelid and smeared.

Verdict: 

Dr Brandt Pores No More Refiner

This primer is comparable to Smashbox and makes your skin feel great for makeup application. It’s slightly tinted which is a plus.

Verdict:  

What did you get in your Ipsy Glam bag this month?
