Ipsy Bag
Cost: $12 monthly, $132 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.
You can now customize your bag and pick out one sample per month that will get to be in your bag which is a pretty nice change even though it came with a price increase.
I really am not enthused with the stuff I got this month. The bag is also odd its like a fuzzy blanket but one of those weird fuzzy blankets that aren’t soft and cuddly.

This is a nice felt tip very smooth very black. When I tried to wipe it off my hand it was super hard to remove and left a blue stain. So we can say this is a very blue based black lol.
Violet Voss Eye Shadow Single in Nude Sparks
Sample Size: 1.8 g
So VIiolet Voss doesn’t sell singles and I can’t find this shade in any of the palettes. So I don’t know what the value would be. I am also not swatching it because I am not interested in using a brown shade with gold glitter. I rather pass it on new to some one else.
Purlisse Blue Lotus 4 in 1 Eye Adore Serum
Full Size: 15 ml
Full Size Cost: $48
Sample Size: 7 ml
Value: $22.40
I know I am gona like this as a day eye cream it feels alot like my Neutrogena one I like but way more expensive. Happy with this even though its kinda boring.
Feel Enzymatic Exfoliating Cleanser
Full Size: 100 ml
Full Size Cost: $28
Sample Size: 19 ml
Value: $5.32
I don’t really like fruit enzyme cleansers I find them a bit harsh and stingy for me personally. I am kinda board of getting cleansers but what ever.
Sunday Riley A+ High Dose Retinoid Serum
Full Size: 30 ml
Full Size Cost: $85
Sample Size: 5 ml
Value: $14.17
So I am pretty sure I have had this before and liked it. Retinols are so expensive so of course I was going to chose it when it was offered. I usually like things from Sunday Riley even though they are obscenely priced.
So we are ending 2020 on a lame note seems appropriate.
