August 2014 - Ipsy Glam Bag

Ipsy is a beauty subscription service that sends 4 - 5 deluxe/full-size products each month.  It only costs $10/month and the products come in a cute bag!

This month's Ipsy theme is "Beauty Schooled."

This month isn't one of my favorites, but I was excited for one particular item.  Here is what I got...

Urban Decay Perversion Mascara - You could probably guess that this is what I was excited to get.  I've been wanting to try out this new mascara and now I can!  I still have yet to use it, but I will soon.

Lord & Berry Silk Kajal Kohl Eye Pencil - I do have a ton of eye pencils already, but this is a perfect travel size.  It really does go on like silk.  Some eye pencils are hard and don't glide on well, but this is not the case for this one.

Coastal Scents Forever Blush Sample Duo - I'm not into these shades that much, but it's still perfect for traveling.

Dr. Brandt Pores No More Pore Refiner - I don't necessarily need a product like this right now, but it will still be useful in the future.  Plus, I always love receiving Dr Brandt items.

Absolute Lip Balm - I got the lip balm in "Green Apple," though it really doesn't smell like apples to me.  It does have a familiar scent, but I can't quite put my finger on it.  On the plus side, I do love lip balms and this one is very moisturizing.

Overall, this wasn't my favorite Ipsy bag, but I still received items that I can use and got something that I really wanted, so this is a win to me!  Don't forget to sign up!

July 2014 Ipsy Reveal!

Ipsy glam rooms are up!  Here's what I will be getting this month...

July 2014 Glam Room

I'm happy with 4/5 items.  I have no use for the tanning oil this summer.  I could of used this 4 days ago when I was at Lake Oconee in Georgia.  So, I will just have to save this for next years possible beach trip.

Ipsy is only $10/month.  Sign up here!

May 2014 Ipsy Glam Bag Sneak Peeks!

Again, I forgot about Ipsy sneak peeks!  I've had my mind on so many other things.  I'm already excited about this first one!


Sneak Peek #1

Let your beauty bloom with one of these soft, fresh shades to cheer up your spring style.

The brand is clearly Pacifica, but I couldn't find these on their website.  I'm assuming that these are eyeshadows.  I would love to get the one to the left, but would be happy with the other as well.

I would also love if this month's bag had a floral print.


UPDATE: MAY 3RD

Sneak Peek #2

Time to head outdoors and enjoy beauty al fresco. Don't forget to put one of these pretty picks in your picnic basket to stay safe in the sun

Every subscriber would be getting one of these sunscreens, either Hang Ten Classic Body SPF 50 or Jersey Shore Sans Tan Anti-aging Sunscreen.  I'm not that excited about getting a sunscreen, but it is useful.

A lovely bouquet of beauty awaits you this month. Which blooms are you excited about?

All subscribers will get one of these items pictured here, which are: 'Tini Beauty Nailtini nail polish, Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Bronzer, Olive Natural Beauty Refreshing Rosemary Lip Balm, perfume in Endless Euphoria by Clavin Klein, Boo Boo Cover-Up, Hey Honey Take it Off Exfoliating Honey Peel Off Mask, Lulu Blossom Dreamsicle Body Balm, and Revlon Colorburst.

The only products I hope not to get, is the perfume sample (have enough of those) or the Boo Boo Cover-up ( I really have no use for that.)

Hopefully I don't end up with the curl cream since my hair is super straight.

Garden party or relaxed picnic, one of these beauty finds will keep you pretty and polished for any outdoor soiree this month.

Next up, we have these products: Derma E Microdermabrasion Scrub, Eau Thermale Avene Thermal Spring Water, two different packs of LA Fresh Cleansing wipes, two brushes which may be from Coastal Scents, a purple lash curler, Mee Beauty Pure Honey Infused Night Cream - Bee Nourished, another Balanced Guru product that looks like the bottle in the 4th sneak peek, and Bare Foot Exfoliating Polish.

I would love to get the spray, night cream or scrub.  The only item I have no use for, is the eyelash curler.  I have three already.

Sneak Peek #6

The anticipation is killing us. We can't wait for you to check out our Fresh Picks for May and show us your spring style.

Here is the bag!  I really like the print.  I was hoping for floral, but this is great too.  Much better than lasts month's bag and I love that the material looks to be canvas.

January 2014 Ipsy Glam Bag Sneak Peeks!

Finally, Ipsy has posted their first sneak peek today!

Sneak Peek #1

Fabulous lips, Fabulous life! One of these lip products will give you a reason to have some adventure this new year!

The two on the left look like CAILYN Tinted Lip Balms, and the one on the right for sure is (MALIN + GOETZ) mojito lip balm.  I'm hoping to receive the mojito lip balm because I have more use for that.

We have already received Cailyn lip balms in a previous bag so I'm hoping these are of a different brand.

UPDATE: JANUARY 7TH

Sneak Peek #2

So many beautiful horizons ahead! Make your 2014 your mostly beautiful year ever with one of these great products.

Everyone will receive one of these products.  The product in the middle looks like Yaby Liquid Foundation and the other two look like Elizabeth Mott Smooth Shadow Smooth Shadow Creamy Eye Pencils.  I suppose I would rather have the foundation over the pencils.

So far, I'm not too excited about these sneak peeks.

UPDATE: JANUARY 8TH

Sneak Peek #3

Gorgeous for 2014, 24/7! From desk to dinner, your lovely look will last with one of these awesome products.

Everyone will get one of these 5 items.  Benefit's the POREfessional is one item I don't want because I already have a full-size in this.  The blue spray bottle looks like Sexy Hair Healthy Sexy Hair Soy Tri-Wheat Leave In Conditioner, the white jar is Briogeo Don't Despair, Repair! Deep Conditioning Mask, a makeup brush from a brand I can't figure out, and a spray bottle containing something that looks like some sort of oil.

I would be happy to get the leave in conditioner or the hair mask.

UPDATE: JANUARY 9TH

Sneak Peek #4

The 2014 adventure begins now! Start it off right with two of these picks in your January Glam Bag!

Everyone will get two of these items in their bags.  They are: ALTERNA Caviar Anti-Aging Dry Shampoo, willa on the go face towelettes, and the rest I'm not quite sure of as yet.

UPDATE: JANUARY 10TH

Sneak Peek #5

Here is the last sneak peek, which is the bag.  It's so very ugly, but I only care about what's in the bag!

Ipsy is a beauty subscription service that costs only $10/month.  Sign up here!!

October 2013 Ipsy Glam Bag Sneak Peeks!

The first sneak peek from Ipsy is out!

All subscribers will receive one of these museum-worthy products in a precious shade!

This looks like Zoya nail polish, and every subscriber will get one these.  I love all these colors!  It looks like there will only be three shades, but who knows, there could be more. So far, so good.

Sign up here!  It's only $10/month.

UPDATE: OCTOBER 1ST

Sneak Peek #2

It’s easy to create timeless works of art when you have these products at your fingertips. Some of our subscribers will receive at least one of these products in their October Glam Bag!

I can only pick out the Starlooks lip pencil at the bottom that we got in a previous bag.  The product to the left looks like an eyeshadow, which may be from MicaBeauty.

The item on top may be a jar of H20 Plus' Hydrating Treatment.  That's what I would want.  The other two to the right look like some sort of lotion and a lip/cheek tint (which I don't want because I got the Benetint in July's bag.)

It sounds like not everyone will get one of these products pictured above, and it's possible for some to get more than one of these items?

UPDATE: OCTOBER 2ND

Sneak Peek #3

All subscribers will receive at least one of these products, which are well-suited for making a big, bold statement!

These are obviously both hair styling products.  One seems to be a spray, and the other, a serum.  If all subscribers will receive at least one of these, it seems as though some could receive both of these items?

UPDATE: OCTOBER 3RD

Sneak Peek #4

Some of our subscribers will get the chance to release their inner artist with the help of at least one of these colorful products. Check back this afternoon for another sneak peek!

There's that word "some" again.  It seems that yet again, not everyone will get one of these products, and some will get more than one.  Looks like the products are a brush, maybe some face wipes (possibly La Fresh), and a lipgloss which may be a deluxe size sample of Buxom.

Some are also saying the top left palette is a Wet n' Wild Fergie eye shadow quad, but who knows. There seems to be too much variation this month.

Sneak Peek #5

Some of our subscribers will receive one of these products, which are each perfect for prepping a blank canvas.

I'm guessing that one of these may be a serum, and the other a face scrub?  The one on the left looks a lot like Ole Henriksen Truth Serum.  I hope it is because I would love to get that in my bag.

UPDATE: OCTOBER 4TH

Sneak Peek #6

Have you guessed this month’s theme yet? How might this item fit in? Check back this afternoon for our final sneak peek of October!

Here is the bag!  Looks pretty cute from here.

Sneak Peek #7

Some of our subscribers will receive this super sweet product, the perfect reward for a long week of creative pursuits. Have a great weekend!

This has been identified as Be Delectable Hand Cream.  I hear there are four different scents.  I hope I get this in my bag.  Perfect for the upcoming cold, dry weather.

You can still sign up for Ipsy's wait list.  The sooner you sign up, the quicker you can start receiving bags! Only $10/month!!!
