Pretty cute bag this month very bright and summery. And as usual when Ipsy sends sheet masks you get two so I love getting an extra product.

Midflower Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Sheet Mask

Full Size: 4 masks

Full Size Cost: $9.99

Sample Size: 2 masks

Value: $5.00

This mask was super comfortable and felt really great and hydrating on my face I really really liked it. The only thing is I just can’t imagine spending $2.50 on a sheet mask mostly because I have so so many. That said I would recommend it it is nice and it is on Amazon.

The Balm What the Tea Ice Tea Eyeshadow Mini in He Said, She Said

Full Size: 9 g (Just the eyeshadow, whole palette 12.6)

Full Size Cost: $36

Sample Size: 1.2 g

Value: $3.43

I thought the concept of these palettes was so funny and sarcastic and I loved it but the colors did not appeal to me at all. I am glad I got a color I have a chance of actually using. This is a nice lilac that is very very shimmery. It is very chunky and has a lot of kick back and fall out but it does apply and blend out really really pretty so I can get past that since I always do my eyeshadow first so that really doesn’t effect me. I love these The Balm single eyeshadows because the packaging is so cute and they are so easy to work with that they are perfect for like throwing in a bag with a brush (these are not apply with your finger formulas) if I know I need to do eyeshadow like in a pinch some where other then my house.

Pacifica Bronzed Rose Rose & Coconut Infused Blush & Bronzer

Full Size: ?

Full Size Cost: $13 ?

Sample Size: 8 g

Value: $13

So starting with the whole pricing of this because it is a bit weird. This is apparently an exclusive to Ipsy so I can’t link this to anything though I know thye used to have packaging like this for blush and bronzer duos that they don’t make anymore. So I based the price off of a 2 shade highlighter palette even though that has more product it seemed like the right price. Since the “formula” for this blush does exist at $12 for 3 grams which seems crazy. I linked to another more expensive blush/bronzer/highlight palette because it has this bronzer shade and a super similar blush shade plus two other shades.

The formula on these is so smooth and nice and silky to touch. The colors aren’t great for me I am going to have to see how I can make them work the bronzer is way to light ad barely shows up but the blush is too dark which seems like an odd combo of who this would work for. The blush is also really shimmery. Swatched Below.

Ciate London Watermelon Burst Hydrating Primer

Full Size: 40 ml

Full Size Cost: $28

Sample Size: 10 ml

Value: $7

This smells like candy which is nice. The little beads that are supposed to burst seems like it might not work out that well in a primer since you want a totally cohesive smooth base but ok.

Firma Beauty 204 Wide Blender Brush

Full Size: Yes

Full Size Cost: $10.99

I like fluffy densely packed brushes like this alot for hen I want blended shimmers so I am happy to have this. I find alot of the Firma Beauty Brushes I have to be a bit firm and dense for how I like my brushes to be but they are still really good brushes.
