May Ipsy Glam Bag

First things first - how cute is this month's Ipsy bag?! TOO CUTE. I feel like the actual Ipsy bags have gotten cuter and cuter this year.

Here's what came in May's Glam Bag....

• Urban Decay 24/7 Glide on Lip Pencil in Ozone - This is a clear lip liner that is meant to prime the lips and latch on to any color you apply over it. I have yet to put it to the test but I'm looking forward to giving it a go. 

• Luxie Beauty Tapered Blending Eye Brush 205 - I've never heard of this brand, but I've already tried out this brush and it is wonderful. It retails for $12 on the Luxie Beauty website, so this product alone costs more than the Ipsy bag! Good value indeed.

• Bare Republic Naturals SPF 30 Mineral Face Sunscreen Lotion - Another brand I've never heard of. This sunscreen is lightly tinted, has no chemical additives, synthetic fragrances or parabens.

• NUXE Reve de Miel Facial Cleansing and Makeup Removing Gel - The Reve de Miel lip balm has a cult following, but this product is totally new to me. This cleanser is soap free and soothing with sunflower and honey. 

• BellaPierre Cosmetics Waterproof Mineral Gel Eyeliner Pencil - This stuff is serious business. I swatched it on my hand and it stayed put all day and all night, and even through a shower. A hair washing shower, no less!!! I don't typically like pencil liners for my upper eyelid, but I used this and I actually really love it. Make sure you have a good waterproof eye makeup remover to get this stuff off! 

Overall, I thought this Ipsy Glam Bag had excellent value and great products - all of which I'm excited to try out! Are you a subscriber? Let me know what you got in this month's bag! 

Ipsy Glam Bag | March 2015

March's Ipsy Glam bag is a good one! For $10/month, this is a heck of a value! To get your own glam bag, click here to sign up.  Here's what came in this month's bag...

• Pur~lisse pūr~delicate gentle soymilk cleanser & makeup remover - This brand has been in my Ipsy bags many times, but never a cleanser. This cleanser is sulfate free and formulated with soy milk, whole oat and white tea. It's meant to wipe away makeup as well as cleanse the skin. 

• Dr. Brandt pores no more anti-aging mattifying lotion - This product helps to delay signs of aging. Retinol improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, while apple stem cells work to maintain the longevity and activity of the skin's own stem cells. 

• NYX Lip Butter in Hunk - These lipsticks are awesome. They're moisturizing and mega-pigmented. Hunk is a gorgeous vampy purple pink. 

• Boo-Boo Cover Up in Medium - This concealer contains natural ingredients known to promote healing, so you can cover your blemishes while getting rid of them at the same time. This is probably a bit too dark for me, which is a bummer ipsy didn't use my profile quiz that specifically says I have fair skin. (Why ask if you don't bother using it?!)

• VINTAGE by Jessica Liebeskind Illuminating Face Highlighter in Crystal Pink - This product is meant to be swept across the apples of your cheeks and cheekbones to give skin a dewy glow. This has a really buttery formula and leans slightly towards discoball shiny, but it is a gorgeous highlight. It could easily be used as an eyeshadow if you prefer. '
