Always so exciting to get that hot pink mailer in the PO box!!
I feel like I got my bag really EARLY this month. I hadn't even gotten my tracking code email yet, but did end up getting it the evening I had received my bag!
Love surprises!!
I'm really really REALLY loving this subscription. I feel like at $10 per month it's justifiable. I don't shop a lot for myself and this brings me joy & I'm also kinda clueless {I'm getting better} on make up & the brands out there. So, this is really fun to receive make up & products that I've never heard of and wouldn't of tried otherwise because I'm finding some products that I really do love!! Like Benefit & iceSkyn in past bags!
I had gotten the mail & couldn't wait to open the packages {I had gotten my March Groovebook as well, I'll post about that separately}. So I just checked them out while in the pick-up like at my kids school :)
I thought about making an "unboxing" video on youtube like I did last month. But I haven't been feeling it.
Here are my initial unbagging pictures!
My first thought on the bag are:
I like the feel, the vinyl feels nice & smooth & I love that they'll be featuring art inspired patterns.
BUT, This artwork, I'm just not a superfan of. It's seems to kid-artish.
I'll be keeping my febbag {plain pink with white zipper} in my purse this month too.
The first thing I pulled out was this {tiny} BareMinerals lipstick sample.
The color is "Get Ready" and I'd describe it as a Mauvy pink.
I'm so picky on lipsticks - actually I never wear lipstick, usually just gloss {&never read or dark pink}. And although I've heard this brand was great & would love to try ANYTHING else from them - this lipstick will not get worn by me.
{it's not too bright, but too dark pink}
I just don't like the look of bright lipstick on ME, so this is just not happening. I keep rating the bright colors they send me really low, but I think I'll just suggest NO MORE lip sticks. I'm getting quite the stash of colors I'll never use & won't even let my daughter play with!
I might check out the website though, because they also gave me a free shipping code {& offer for free mascara sample - which I'm sure will be tiny too}
I was excited to see this pix! primer though! This is a brand I've been wanting to try & primer is always useful!
Then there was this NYX eyeshadow trio
I've also not used this brand before either. I think it's a cheaper brand. The shadows feel cheap, but a little better that e.l.f. {which is also cheap & love them for many things, but eyeshadow is NOT one of them!}
& It has a cute bow on the closure :)
Then I pull out this Chella eyeliner pen. I've heard about this brand just recently & heard it was good.
This is in Indigo Blue... which I'm no stranger to fun eye colors so this will but a nice addition to my
stash!
I even swiped it on my eyes in the car {no pic} and loved the smooth application & color every much!
& also love the applicator tip, it's feels like a felt tip marker.
So I'm happy with this bag all in all, there is a big enough value in the items I'll use for me to cosider this worth $10shipped :)
Join me and get an ipsy GLAMBAG!
