September Ipsy Glam Bag

My September Ipsy bag arrived last weekend while I was in SF & I've been meaning to post about the goodies I received, so here it goes!


This month’s bag came in a silvery studded pouch.  Inside, I received the following:

1.       Cailyn Art Touch Tinted Lip Gloss:  I thought this lipgloss was okay – the color was more on the berry/plum side upon swatching even though it looked to be deep red in the tube. The consistency is a bit runny but that might work for those who don’t like anything too thick or sticky.




2.       Pacifica Eyeliner:  It was a shimmery slate gray shade.  I can’t speak for the staying power because I haven’t used it yet but it is a pretty flattering color that I think would work on most skin tones!
3.       Nourish Organic Moisturizing Cream Cleanser: Made with aloe vera, cucumber & watercress, this fragrance-free formula is meant to be safe for all skin types with no irritation.
4.       Mitchell and Peach Luxury Hand Cream:  This hand cream had a scent that I was not entirely fond of – I can’t explain it but it just smells a little too chemical-y for my taste.  My mom really liked it though, so I’m handing it over to her so it doesn’t go to waste!
5.       Crown Brush C476 Crease/Shadow Brush: I’m pretty excited to use this brush because I LOVE dual-ended brushes/products – anything to keep my makeup bag a little lighter because I need all the help I can get!  The brush quality appears to be pretty good – the bristles feel soft & substantial. 

What did you guys think about this month’s Ipsy bag? Comment below!

Sneak Preview - Em by Michelle Phan

Hello Everyone!

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! You can only imagine how happy I was to receive my girlfriend Lovely's Christmas gift in the mail.  One of the items that my fabulous friend gifted me was a concealer from Michelle Phan's new makeup line, "Em".  I received this in the shade "Medium" which looks perfect with my NC30 skin.  Unfortunately, I was not able to take a photo of the swatch against my skin in daylight, but I assure you that a more detailed post is in the pipeline!
