If you didn't know Ipsy is a subscription service where you get a few makeup items every month, mostly delux samples or mini versions of a full item or sometimes even full products! You get all of this for $10 including shipping. You get to answer some questions in a quiz so they know what you prefer and what you want to get in your bag! So, that's a bit of a summary of what Ipsy is so let's go to what I got~
- ModelCo LipLacquer Lip Gloss in Morocco which I really liked the shade but sadly, it was a bit too sticky for my tastes. The full sized product costs $24. I'll probably use it again but maybe not!
- The Balm Cosmetics Mr.Write (Now) Eyeliner Pencil in Scott B. Bordeaux which in all honesty I haven't tried (because I have other products to test out) but I definitely will soon! I really love the shade so I'm really excited to do so! This is a full sized product and it retails for $17.00!
- It Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Anti-Aging Concelear in Neutral Medium. I've heard about this product, of course, and I was very intrigued by it! It has a really specific way set of intructions to how exactly to put it on which I realized after trying it for the second time and haven't put it on since then, but I'm keeping it in mind for next time. It's pretty thick and a little difficult to blend completely but it lasts a pretty long time from what I've tested! This is a delux sample and the full product retails for $24.
- Cake Beauty Heavy Cream Intensive Hand Repair Balm which I haven't tested yet oops! I wasn't actually very excited when I saw this in the bag but it smells really good and the reviews all seem amazing so I'm pretty excited to try it now! This is a mini version and the full product retails for $22.
- Josie Maran Cosmetics Argan Enlightenment Illuminatizing Wand which is the ultimate star from my ipsy february bag! I was freaking out so much when I saw this because back when I was searching through highlighters on sephora a few months ago, this one was the one I wanted to buy! Such a coincidence omg! It takes a while to completely blend out but I really liked it! I don't know if I was biased or not so I'll try to be more neutral next time lol! This is a mini size and the full product retails for $28!

Just came across your blog and I absolutely love it! I used to be a subscriber to Ipsy for about a year before cancelling it. I loved the idea of it but I just got too many products I ended up not using. Great post!

Aw! Thank you so much! Yeah, I can understand that. Also why I have been putting off subscribing to ipsy or birchbox for a while now. Ended up choosing ipsy because I prefered what they offered! :) xo
DeleteI so badly want to try all these sub boxes everyone talks about!! It sounds like a great way to try samples of products and get introduced to new brands :)

It is! Especially because it's inexpensive! xo
DeleteThat hand cream costs a lot so I'm expecting it to be really good!

DeleteIpsy has the cutest bags that they put their subscription but this one is by far my favourite little bag! I think I get more excited about the actual bag than the contents haha!
