Ipsy Bag
Cost: $10 monthly, $110 annual
Cycle: Every Month
What is it: Every month Ipsy sends out a cute makeup bag of samples and full size items. you can review your bag for points that you can trade in for reward items. The rewards change often and the range between 300 points and 1000 points. You can get around 95 points every month.
If you want to subscribe you can subscribe HERE and skip the waitlist. That is my referral link so I do get points to spend but I’m not an affiliate I don’t make any money or anything it’s just one beauty junkie to another.
The tassel on this month’s bag feels really well made but the bag feels super cheap. this is definitely one for the yard sale bin. I feel like 2 years ago the bags were so much cuter and better then they are now. And we all got 6 items this month which is a great holiday bonus!
Coco & Eve Like a Virgin Hair Coconut & Fig Masque
Full Size: 212 ml
Full Size Cost:$50
Sample Size: 38 ml
Value: $8.96
So I was really excited for this because it smells good and is a good size but it has some reviews that make it seem really sketchy. It is really pricey for a hair mask that just has average ingredients. I will try it out but not something I would ever buy even if I like it.
First Aid Beauty Facial Radiance Pads
Full Size: 60 pads
Full Size Cost: $30
Sample Size: 10 pad
Value: $5
These are ok but nothing special I do want to try the acne one that they make but they are even more expensive then this one.
Luxie 243 Precision Blending Brush
Full Size: Yes
Full Size Cost:$12
I love Luxie brushes they are so so soft. I don’t really use these pointed type brushes often but I am always happy to add more Luxie brushes to my brush collection.
F.A.R.A.H. Tapered Blending Brush 35E
Full Size: Yes
Full Size Cost:$10
I can’t find this handle style so I linked to another version of this same brush. I love how this handle has the ergonomic grips. It it s bit stiff and scratchy but that makes it really good for blending. I love that I got two brushes this month.
Ciate Glitter Flip in Infamous
Full Size: 3 ml
Full Size Cost: $11
Sample Size: 1.5 ml
Value: $5.50
I have a few of these and they are so fun. Not the most comfortable but super fun and looks very cool in pictures. They are on sale for $11 right not I don’t know if that is just a sale or if they are being discontinued but either way these are very fun.
If you don’t know these go on matte and then you let them dry a little and rub your lips together and it activates all this glitter to come out. I tried to show it in the swatched but it looks so much better on your lips. Swatched Below.
Pacifica Rainbow Crystals Liquid Mineral Strobe in Unicorn
Full Size: 4 g
Full Size Cost: $13
Sample Size: 2 g
Value: $6.50
This has such stunning packaging I love it with the holographic rainbow effect and all the facets to make it look like crystals. This is one of those use anywhere strobing highlighters it has a white base with a pink shift. It is really pretty. Swatched Below.
I really like this month’s bag I really got lucky this month with Sephora and Ipsy. My favorites are definitely the two brushes I love getting brushes in subscriptions.
