Hello September and goodbye September. Wow, have these months come and gone in a flash. Somehow I ended up so far behind on my Ipsy reviews/whats in my Ipsy bag. So, on to the next! This has to be one of Ipsy more edgier bag and I like it! Studded charcoal grey bag and what I'm calling/consider to be one of Ipsy larger makeup bags. I'm loving it!
- Crown Brush "C476 Crease/Shadow"
- NYX Hot Singles Eye Shadow in "HS69 Addiction"
- Pacifica, Natural Minerals eye liner in "Gun Metal"
- Cailyn Art Touch Tinted Lip Gloss in "09 Basic Instinct"
- Alterna "Caviar CC Cream"
Crown Brush "C476 Crease/Shadow" retails for $6.99. This brush is from the "Infinity Series" sadly it does not specify what this brush is made of. It could be synthetic or some type of animal hair. The site only list the name and price. I have never owned a Crown Brush but I can say that this brush is pretty amazing! The "Shadow" side is soft and fluffily with just enough stiffness to accurately apply shadow. The "Crease" side has this pin point tip that glides perfectly in the crease. I'm not a huge fan of double sided brushes since I store my brushes standing up. As far as quality it appears to be pretty awesome. I am now contemplating purchasing some Crown Brushes, I like this one that much!
NYX Hot Singles Eye Shadow in "HS69 Addiction"
Full size NYX Hot Singles Eye Shadow in "HS69 Addiction"
0.053 oz. retails for $4.50. I am a huge fan of NYX shadows and always welcome more to my makeup collection. This has a metallic/satin finish and is more of a mauve/brown color. I can't say enough good things about NYX shadows. I always recommend an eyeshadow primer. One of my favorite things about these shadows is that you get what you see.
Pacifica, Natural Minerals eye liner in "Gun Metal"
Sample size Pacifica, Natural Minerals eye liner in "Gun Metal" 0.026 oz. Full size retails for $11.00 I can't state how much product you'd get in a flu size, it's not listed on the Pacifica site. I like this liner, it's ok. I did try and apply it on the water line and found that it performed poorly and made my eye itch. It works better to define the eye or line the upper outside of the eyelid. This can be rubbed off easily, as far as a long wearing eye liner this would not be it. On the plus side Pacifica is 100% vegan and cruelty free.
Cailyn Art Touch Tinted Lip Gloss in "09 Basic Instinct"
Full size Cailyn Art Touch Tinted Lip Gloss in "09 Basic Instinct" retails for $19.00. Don't be fooled by its name of tinted lip gloss. This have some serious color to it and on their site claims to have the power of a stain and shine of a lip gloss. This glides on smoothly, stays shiny and is never tacky. Don't let my swatch fool you. This is a nude color, I'm not sure why my camera is trying to make this color out to be on the peachy side. I enjoy this gloss and will keep in on my rotation of highly used lip glosses. One thing I did notice is that on the Cailyn site, this is called the Cailyn Art Touch Tinted Lip Gloss Stick. I wonder if this is its old packaging? No worries, I like it none the less, just found it interesting on the name change.
Sample size Alterna "Caviar CC Cream" 10 in 1 complete correction, leave in hair protector .85 fl oz. Full size 2.5 fl oz retails for $25.00. This smells amazing! I hear a choir singing when I smell this. Every time that I have used this, people complement how good my hair smells. It's that good! This is white in color and feels and applies like a hair cream/lotion. This does have a tad bit of a tackiness to it. I feel that this could possible have the potential to be worn alone as a curl cream.
In all, was this worth the $10.00? Yes, this was another great bag (as in the actual bag and content). This came with three full size items totaling $30.49 and two good sized samples. The samples are what I would call deluxe size samples. This was a great bag, I liked everything.
