February Ipsy Bag

As the calendar inches closer to the 10th of each month I start to get excited for my Ipsy Glam Bag to arrive. When I get home in the afternoons, I race to mailbox box, crossing my fingers that that metallic pink bag will be waiting for me!

Last week, it arrived (though haphazardly thrown on my porch and not in the mailbox) and I prepared myself a snack, some comfy clothes, and a moment to myself to delve in and find out what fun was enclosed this month. I didn't even, sneak a peek when Ipsy sent me a chance to see what might be included. All the more fun to be surprised!

At first glance I was really excited about the products included. However, when I really thought about it I decided I wouldn't use some of the products and gave them to relatives who I know will get better use out of them.

Eva NYC
Up All Night Volumizing Spray
Although, a little of this product spilled in transit, I am excited to give it a try! I am always willing to to try volumizing hair products.... I don't know what it is but I love me some volume :)

Mitchell and Peach
Fine Radiance Face Oil
I have been loving the idea of face oils and really just skincare in general so I am looking forward to trying out this product. Unfortunately, lately my skin and I have not been friends so my testing phase will have to wait until I can get my skin all sorted out! BTW... acne in your 20s is lame and no fun!

Emite Makeup
Professional Eye Lash Curler
If you're sensitive about eyelashes... turn away now. Ok, I have been blessed with long curly eyelashes and have never felt the need to try a curler. I did give this one a quick go and I didn't notice a difference so I gave it to my Grandma. I'll let you know what she thinks of it after she's given it some use.

City Color Cosmetics
Creamy Lip Stain - Flirtini
This is one of the products I've given away, I'm just not into lip products really. I try and try but I just haven't found a product that I'd wear or feel I look good in. I did give this to my cousin though, who tried it on, and I feel like it's a really pretty and wearable color with a velvety kind of finish.

ModelCo
BLUSH Cheek Powder - Cosmopolitan
As I had just purchased to blushes I decided to give this product to my cousin. I did swatch the color on my hand though, and it's very sheer but buildable. I think it would give a really nice natural glow to the skin. I'm "almost" sad I gave it away/
