So we have a pale pink and lace cheap feeling bag this month but definitely some full size products.

But really exciting looking products.

Naked Cosmetics Lip Scrub in Vanilla Cream

Full Size: 6.5 g

Full Size Cost: $4.99

Sample Size: 6.5 g

Value: $4.99

So this doesn’t smell or taste like anything….. but it has a nice consistency so that’s great. It is scrubby and oily with out being to oily or scrubby. I think this is full size I can’t really find the size online.

Marc Anthony Grow Long Leave In Conditioner

Full Size: 250 ml

Full Size Cost: $5.99

Sample Size: 50 ml

Value: $1.20

This is a very full tube. I love Marc Anthony haircare stuff and have been seeing this around so I’m so excited to have gotten it. It has caffeine and ginseng which I don’t know if I have ever seen in a hair thing before. I have never used a leave in so this is great. These samples are never high value but I get a ton of use out of them and they are some of my favorite samples.

Luxie 249 Brush

Full Size: Yes

Full Size Cost: $24

 

So this brush doesn’t exist on their site something that has happened with IpsyxLuxie before so I linked to the nose contouring brush which is the only comparable double ended brush that they have. This is an odd eyeshadow brush dense but flimsy blending brush that I would only use as a clean blending brush and then like a really big kinda fluffy packing brush that I feel like would be hard to use. I’m still thrilled to get a Luxie brush I’m just mystified by the use of this one.

Mellow Precision Pen Eyeliner

Full Size: 1.8 g

Full Size Cost: $14

Sample Size: 1.8 g

Value: $14

So positive this doesn’t smudge. Negatives it isn’t smooth or super black you have to build it up and I don’t love these marker style of liquid liners the packaging is pretty though. When I swatched it I tried to show that you can make a thick and thin line but I did have to build it up to make it a solid black color. Swatched Below.

Ofra Liquid Lipstick in Unzipped

Full Size: 6 g

Full Size Cost: $20

Sample Size: 6 g

Value: $20

This is a pretty shade but I think my spoiled in shipping there is like oil leaking out of it Idk. Its weird I emailed Ipsy but they haven’t gotten back to me yet so I will update you next month on what their solution is. Swatched Below.


I can’t believe I got so many full sized product this month I am really please with the brush and the conditioner. The lipstick would be great if it wasn’t mysteriously leaking.
