September 2017 Ipsy Glam Bag Review & Try On

September 2017 Ipsy Glam Bag




If you're not familiar with Ipsy, it's a monthly subscription bag with 4-5 full and/or sample sized beauty products. I've been getting one for two and an half  years  now. Even though some bags are hit or miss, I've continued to be subscribed so I can try out new items. I feel like Ipsy has really upped their game this year and I've loved every bag I've gotten. I'll be sharing my bag with you every month with my own personal review of the bag itself, and each product in it. I'll also blog about how certain makeup wears, feels, and my own opinion of the product. The same for skincare products, and how they work with my skin type.  I hope you enjoy my August  2017 Glam Bag (If you're interested in subscribing to Ipsy's monthly Glam Bag, I'll post the link down below).


I originally got my September Ipsy Glam Bag around mid-month, but I'm just now reviewing it because this was going to be the month I branched out and reviewed more subscriptions. This is not happening due to the fact that those subscriptions are delayed in the shipping process. I'm hoping to get reviews on them up towards the end of this week. To jump into this months bag  it is super cute and has a sexy vibe to it. It has the look and feel of leather and has little spikes all over. This theme as you can see, is LIKE. A. BOSS. 
I did decide to throw a look in this blog using each product I received like I normally do.

Bio fresh Mask with real calming herbs.
I tried this mask out last night after I had washed my face. I loved the fact that it really is very calming, but I'm not a huge fan of products that have a lot of chunks in them (as you can see in the pictures) even if they are herbs. The overall mask was nice and left my face calm and refreshed!

The full size is $41.00
My sample is around $6.00













(2)  Feel Renewed 
pumpkin walnut facial cleanser.
I washed my face with this cleanser this morning instead of my usual to try it out and get my opinion of it. When I first smelled this I didn't think I would like it. If you enjoy pumpkin scents, then you'll love it. I'm usually not a fan, but I was pleasantly surprised when I actually did enjoy using this and it really put me in a fall mood! My skin felt amazing after using this too!

The full size is $28.00
My sample is $7.00

Mac Fix +

Paula Dort Enhancer (nude eyeliner)






This really was a good shadow and formula, but I felt this was just really repetitive in what I've gotten before in these glam bags. The shade we've seen a dozen times and the sample size isn't the best. I can easily pop (no pun intended) it out and place it in a Z Palette. I incorporated this shade with a few other from the Naked 3 Palette, but I focused this just on my lid. 

Full size is $13.00
My sample is $4.55





I've said in my blogs before that I love receiving brushes from subscriptions, but when they're from brands that are my favorite, it's even better! I love Luxie Brushes so much! The quality is so good and they can make any eye look flawless. Ipsy introduced me to these brushes and I love that I still continue to receive them. This brush didn't let me down. 

This brush is $12.00




Other Eye Brushes: 
XO Beauty Vegan Brow Groomer
XO Beauty Vegan Shadow 

















I curled my lashes and then tried this Ciate mascara out for the first time. I wasn't blown away with the formula like I am about the L'oreal Voluminous Lash Paradise Mascara, but it was a decent one that I would continue to use. My favorite part about this item is the wand! These are my favorite kind of wands for sure! 

Full size is $22.00
My sample is $11.00 



I added this Wet n Wild Lipstick (Think Pink) to this look and it's finished! 










My overall Glam Bag Total for this Month is $40.55 
That's great for a $10.00 (monthly subscription)

Good Molecules Pineapple Exfoliating Powder \\ Skincare

Good Molecules Pineapple Exfoliating Powder \\ Skincare Pineapple Exfoliating Powder I was so skeptical about this product. I mean it is a super fine powder that is suppose to exfoliate my skin. It is a super fine powder, but it still does the trick! While being extremely gentle to the skin the natural starch and silk powder exfoliates your skin removing dead skin build up and surface build up in pores. On top of that it will leave your skin glowing with the 3-0 ethyl ascorbic acid from all the fruit extracts in this. It has not only pineapple, but also kiwi and papaya! What's even better (that I have absolutely loved!) is that this is made without microbeads, nuts, or anything that will be too harsh and could potentially scratch the surface of your skin.  While being super gentle it will also leave your skin soothed and calm with the calamine powder and allantoin that is in it too.  Sorry I sound like an infomercial in these blogs. I just want all the info out there for you w...

Black Moon Cosmetics Lip Trio | Makeup

  Mini Moon Liquid to Matte Nude Trio (Deep/Dark) I was happy to make another purchase from the indie brand, Black Moon Cosmetics . I bought the Urban Myth palette last fall and fell in love with it! The brand has since caught my attention over and over with it's clever packaging, overall asethetic, and unique shades. And not just with eyeshadow but with lipsticks as well. Their shade range in lip products are so cool and the packaging is beautiful. I have to say I'm still usually on the fence about trying new liquid lipsticks. To be honest, I feel I have found formulas/brands that work for me and that I know wear amazingly and feel comfortable (not too drying) and I've stuck to those when buying new shades. So it put me off for awhile until I seen them advertise these adorable tin moon holders. At first I seen them and thought of decor, they were so cute! I recently redecorated my filming setup and was in the market for little trinkets that caught my attenion and this one...
