If you don't know, Ipsy is a $10 per month subscription service. You receive 4-5 deluxe/full sized samples from great brands related to the cosmetic industry. Each month has a theme, and comes in a cute little customized cosmetic bag.
The theme for April 2014's Ipsy bag is "Beauty Rocks" Below is a picture of what this months bag looks like.
Now, lets get into the fun stuff!
The products:
Rainbow Honey Nail Polish
The first thing I got in my bag was nail polish. At first glance the bottle looks really cool. Its a blue glittery color.
I tested the nail polish over a metallic blue Color Club nail polish and was pretty impressed. If you like glitter nails. This is a great polish for you. You can check out the swatch on my nail in my youtube unboxing video I will post at the end of this blog.
Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil Travel Size
Color: "Black Velvet"
Hands down my favorite eyeliner is Urban Decay's Glide-On Pencil collection. I use the color "Perversion" in my waterline pretty much every day. I also love the color "Zero." When I saw that I got the color "Black Velvet" I was really excited.
Its a gorgeous black color that glides on really smooth, and lasts all day. This is my favorite product in this months Ipsy bag!
Demeter- Jasmine Perfume Oil Roll On
The one downfall of a lot of subscription services are tiny perfume samples. I have to say, if you're going to do a perfume sample. This is the way to go. The sample comes in a roll-on glass bottle which is cute, and has a nice cap if you want to throw it in your bag.
The scent however, for me was just okay. Its a pretty strong floral scent which I don't normally gravitate to, but it isn't horrible.
dr. brandt® microdermabrasion
This has to be my least favorite thing in this month's Ipsy bag. As far as microdermabrasion, I really don't know a whole lot about it. I'm stuck in my usual skin care routine, and to be honest with you I think it works pretty well.
I haven't tried the sample yet, I might give it away. Have you tried it before? Am I going to miss something great? I would love to know!
Mary Kay At Play™ - Jelly Lip Gloss
The sample size for this one is awesome. Its a full sized product in a nude color. What more could you ask for? I like the Mary Kay brand, one of my favorite lipstick colors is by Mary Kay. This gloss is pretty, the downfall? It's really sticky.
Lets sum it up. I got a cute cosmetic bag, 5 makeup samples, all of them really good sizes. Am I satisfied? Absolutely! Ipsy is a great service and I'm so glad I stumbled upon it last year, because I absolutely love it!
