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 just really hate this months bag it is so ugly and I don’t like the weird rubber that it is made of and it feels in bad taste since no one can actually go anywhere.

Full Size: 50 ml
Full Size Cost: $4
Sample Size: 50 ml

This was my choice item I love a rosemary hair product in my mind they are going to help my hair grow. I like that this is resealable because this is definitely more then one use, I hate that its a packet and not a jar or tube though. Meh.
Hempz Citrine Crystal & Quartz Herbal Body Moisturizer
Full Size: 66 ml
Full Size Cost: $7.99
Sample Size: 66 ml
Value: $7.99
I like Hempz lotions they usually smell really god and feel really lux but they are very thick and heavy on the skin and this is no different. This has like not scent description and the name of the scent are things that don’t smell like anything so that’s cool. I found this to smell alot like there orginal scent but with like a hint of the sweetness. I like it.
Firma 201 Flat Oval Blending Brush
Full Size: Yes
Full Size Cost: $12.99
Typically I don’t love Firma brushes they are not the greates feeling quality wise but this is softer and feels better constructed then usual. I love getting brushes even if they are crappy because they are great for costume looks and paints and glue that I don’t want ruining my good brushes.
Naked Cosmetics Naturally Nude NN-03 Loose Pigment
Full Size: 1.5 g
Full Size Cost: $14.99
Sample Size: 1.5 g
Value: $14.99
I would never pay $15 for a nude pigment even a pretty one like this. I have a few of their pigments I just don’t vibe with the neutral colors they send. This also claims to be great for bronzer and anything you want but it has so much shimmer this would look insane as a bronzer. Swatched Below.
The Balm Will Powder Blush in Perseverance
Full Size: 10 g 4 shades x 2.5 g
Full Size Cost: $25
Sample Size: 2.2 g
Value: $5.50
Normally I would be super annoyed to get blush but this is such a pretty peachy orange shade that is so my vibe and I love The Balm and their packaging is just the best. This is really so pretty and smooth there is alot of shimmer but I still think I love it despite that. Swatched Below.
A surprisingly good month for me. Pretty shocked since it included a blush and a nude pigment.
