Ipsy Bag Review - June

Christmas is here!  AKA I got my Ipsy bag yesterday J   I just love it when that shiny pink bubble pack arrives!

This one had a theme of “On the Wild Side” which seems quite exciting.  When I saw the email letting me know the theme and that the bag was on the way, I knew that the makeup bag included would be leopard or zebra or something fun….and it was!

This month’s was seriously awesome. Of the 5 things I got….4 were FULL SIZE!  That’s so great!
So here we go….June’s Ipsy bag!

Inside the adorable leopard print and lime green bag I found:
1)    Psssst! Instant Dry Shampoo – 1.76oz (travel size)
I love dry shampoo!  It’s perfect for those days you just don’t feel like washing your hair.  This canister is perfect for travel.  I actually haven’t tried this brand yet, so I’m compare it to the brand I usually use! This wasn’t actually inside the bag, it was too big J
Full Size: $6.99 for 5.3oz My Value: $2.99 (that’s what a travel size costs on their site)

2)    Cailyn Line-Fix Gel Eyeliner in purple – .14oz (FULL SIZE )
This is pretty darn awesome. I only use gel eyeliners, so this is a welcome addition to my makeup bag! For some reason I just can’t get those darn eyeliner pencils to write on my eyelids.  I almost strictly use MAC fluidline, so it will be cool to see if this brand is any different. It says it is water resistant, smudge proof, 24 hour wearing and safe for sensitive eyes.  That sounds like magic haha. It also comes with a built-in brush! I’m not sure how I feel about the purple color yet, but I will give it a try sometime on a weekend! I’ve never heard of the brand, but I have to say the packaging is really nice. It has beauty tips and instructions on it, which I really like.
Full Size: $21.00, My Value: $21.00

3)    Starlooks lip liner in Tickle Me Pink – 2.4g (FULL SIZE)
I’m not usually a lip liner person, but I think I am going to try this.  The color is absolutely perfect for me, it pretty much matches a ton of lipsticks and glosses that I already own! I’ve never heard of this brand, I don’t know how good it is.
Full Size: $12.00 My Value: $12.00

4)    NYX cream blush in Red Cheeks – .12oz (FULL SIZE)
I’m not gonna lie, this is pretty darn bright!  I am hoping that if I just use a little it will be a perfect color.  A friend who is a makeup artist said that NYX is a good brand, which makes this a pretty awesome addition to the bag!
Full Size: $6.00 My Value: $6.00

5)    J.Cat Beauty Sparkling cream palette in Suzie – .01oz (FULL SIZE)
Woah! I like a little sparkle in my life….but this is a lot! Hopefully they don’t look this crazy on J  When I first looked at it, I assumed it was some sort of cream eye shadow type thing (I mean it does say CREAM palette on the front).  But guess what?  It’s not a cream, it seems to be dry glitter just packed very tightly.  I used my finger and it came off nicely.  It shouldn’t be as harsh on my eyes as I thought. This is gonna be fun!
Full Size: $4.49  My Value: $4.49


Final Cost: $10.00
Final Value: $46.48

I’ll say it again and again, Ipsy is my favorite monthly sunscription!  I mean, 4 full size products? How awesome is that?!?  Plus, I always love the makeup bags they include each month.  They are so cute and I put majority of them to good use!

I will definitely be continuing my subscription!

  3. There are sooo many monthly beauty boxes out there that its so hard to choose, but this one looks awesome. My favorite thing here would be the eyeliner! I have green eyes, and navy blue or dark purple eyeliner does wonders for them! It looks like black from far away but up close it just brings out this subtle color that people aren't expecting. I love it.

  4. This is a fun themed package! Full-size products? Wow. That's pretty cool. I've been loving birchbox so far, but I'd definitely give Ipsy a try. =0)
