I love getting this bag in the
mail! For the price that doesn’t break the budget ($10 including shipping), it
is a great deal and you get a little beauty treat each month. Sometimes they are a complete hit, sometimes
a few products are a miss, but it’s always worth at least what I paid
regardless!
The theme of this month’s bag is “Hello Spring” and comes in an
adorable orangey bag with a rose type pattern on it. I love it! The products
are pretty dark to me to be “spring” like, but maybe they just happen to be the
colors I got.
1) Mellow Cosmetics
Blush in “Bronze” – .16 oz. (FULL SIZE)
Blush two months in a row?
Boo. This color looks a little dark to
me; it seems more like a bronzer than a blush.
I prefer rosier or more coral type shades.
Full Size: $10.00 My Value:
$10.00
2) Beau Gachis Eyebrow Brush – FULL SIZE
I’m not sure how to use
this as an eyebrow brush, I may use it as an eyeliner brush instead!
Full Size: $12.00 My Value:
$12.00
3) Essence Make Me
Brow in “browny brows” – .12 oz. (FULL SIZE)
I don’t do my brows very
often since you can’t really see them because of my bangs. If I do my brows,
it’s pretty much a waste of product. My first thought when I saw this was how
cheap it probably is. I remember seeing
this brand in Ulta and everything was close to $1.
Full Size: $2.99 My Value: $2.99
4) NYX Liquid Suede Cream Lipstick in “Softspoken” – .13 oz (FULL SIZE)
Full Size: $7.00 My Value: $7.00
5) Alterna Haircare
Caviar Anti-Aging Spray Volume Mist – 1.4 oz.
Wow, this stuff seems to do
a lot. It’s a “Caviar Anti-Aging Miracle Multiplying Volume Mist.” Say that
three times fast!! I honestly can’t imagine I’d really notice a difference in
my hair when using this stuff, I’d only be hoping it was doing what it was
supposed to! The good thing about it is it has a lovely citrusy clean scent.
I’d spray it on my hair just for that!
Full Size: $28.00 for 4.8
oz. My Value: $8.16
Final Cost: $10.00
Final Value: $40.15
This month’s bag is a total miss for me. Not that Ipsy knows my hairstyle, but I am bummed two of the products are brow products that I won’t get use out of. I can’t fault them for that though. I use both blush and lip gloss, but I don’t like the shades of those that were included this month, so I won’t be using them. The only thing that can save this is the magical hair mist, but I am not holding high hopes for it since I don’t use many hair products.
