Yawn.
My relationship with Ipsy is always on again off again. I want so badly to love it. But with the product and brand repeats it can get difficult. Add to it that the spoilers went from confusing, to cute, to painfully obvious....The bag itself has gotten cheaper, the products smaller, and of lower quality.
The bag is teal plastic with squares quilted on. Not exactly "Beauty Candy". It feels cheap and honestly, it will be finding a new home.
On the bright side I was able to add on a Bare Minerals BB Cream Eyeshadow in Elegant Taupe for 1000 points. Pretty pumped about this. I love the product and the formula! Really great for a "no make-up make-up day".
I appreciated that my nail polish came wrapped in extra bubble wrap.
Nicole by OPI "Feeling Very Cherry"
Over all a higher end drugstore brand in a colour on point for late fall. This dark oxblood shade will look cozy and vampy come November. I will probably maybe almost sort of get some use out of it if I don't love my Juleps more. But hey, decent value!
Épicé Purifying Exfoliant
My skin care regime is already right where I like it, and I don't want to mess with a good thing. This will more than likely find a home in my gym bag. The product is lacklustre, but gets the job done.
Figs & Rouge "Rose Berry" Hand Cream
Smells like roses and berries. Makes my hands softer. It works, not that I need any more hand creams that come in oil paint tubes. As it gets colder I am sure I will be reaching for this in my purse!
VolumEYES Mascara
When will it end? So. Much. Mascara. I have 42. Count it. Forty-two unused mini mascaras in my drawer. All of them top off on my list to use well before this one. I haven't even touched it, but will end up gifting it to someone, somewhere. This is a weird "bigger than a deluxe sample but smaller than full sized" product.
Starlooks Lip Gloss "Guilty Pleasure"
This is a really pretty little gloss that tastes like cupcakes. Too bad it is sooooo sososososo tiny. It makes Julep look full sized!
Look at the products spill out of my bag artistically onto a scarf!
My first 1000 point perk!
So yeah not much to love about this bag. I didn't even want to test half of the products because they looked just so...bleh. Here's to hoping that next month is better! I will be sticking around for Christmas, but after that will likely take a break for a few months. In more exciting news, I picked up some stunning brushes to share with you next!
