Ipsy bag for September! Yay! Classic Beauty!

18.9.13

Hey guys, so a few days ago I got my third Ipsy bag in the mail! I always love waiting for these to come to my house so I can open it up and find those lovely items inside! So these are the items I got this month! Four out of five are full sized and that makes me super happy!


  • EM Michael Phan The Life Pallete in Career Life, actually makeup on the paper to use.
  • NYX Eyeshadow 108 Golden Poppy
  • It's So Big Mascara
  • Cailyn Tinted Lip Balm in Big Apple
  • Starlooks Kohl Eye Pencil in K01 Obsidian
  • Chella Ivory Lace Highlighter 




So here's some swatches for you, from left to right is Golden Poppy, Ivory Lace Highlighter, Obsidian, Mascara, and Big Apple! ( I didn't swatch the Career Life because I want to save it for a tutorial/look)


So my impressions of them! 

I am not so much of a fan of Golden Poppy just because I dislike yellows but it may look good with a orange and brown combo for fall, so I will stay optimistic about it!

The Ivory Lace Highlighter is a really lovely colour the compliments my skin well and doesn't look awkward on me, so I love it and used it today. You can see it on my instagram!

I don't really use eye pencils much just because I love my liquid eyeliner way more, but it goes on very smooth and its really black so I will give it a try.

The mascara doesn't seem to be anything special, but it's really nice. It goes on smooth and doesn't clump, it's more of a lengthening mascara than a volumizing one like it says.

The tinted lip balm is quite more than tinted I would say, it's very red and in the swatch that's just a tiny bit of it, so it's really more than that, which isn't a bad thing, just a misleading name!

Overall I am pretty happy with my Ipsy bag this month! And I already can't wait till next months!


If you want to join Ipsy just click HERE! For $10 a month and free shipping ($5.00 CAN) you really can't go wrong, I love all the products I get usually and sometimes it's hit or miss but you're getting 4-5 products usually full size for a very low price! I love it!

  2. I like the shade of the highlighter!
    But apart from that, I'm not really a fan of this month's offerings :(
