Hello Lovelies… I’m back! Between my aunt’s wedding, vacation, and a
promotion at work… things have been crazy! I have a LOT of catching up to do!
Today I am focusing on my September Ipsy bag.
The theme this month is Street Style. OMG, I LOVE everything about this
bag! When I first saw the picture of the makeup bag, I was not impressed. When
I received it on Saturday, I completely changed my mind. It is sooo rocker
chic! It’s a nice soft, silver bag with small silver studs… very edgy and cute.
Now for the products:
This was the product that I could not wait to try. I love nail polishes
and I have liked every Pacifica product that I have gotten, so I was really
excited to get this product! Let me tell you that I was NOT disappointed! The color (Red Red Wine) is absolutely
GORGEOUS! Perfect for the fall and winter seasons. This Pacifica nail polish
has a nice consistency and applies very smoothly and beautifully, it does not
clump up at all. I definitely recommend the Pacifica brand, especially their nail
polishes. Red Red Wine has become one of my favorite polishes of all time!
Who doesn’t love lip glosses? This was the second product that I
reached for in my bag. There were 2 colors available, Basic Instinct (a peachy
nude) and Love Affair (a dark red), and I am sooo happy that I received Love
Affair. This gloss looks great with my Pacifica Red Red Wine nail polish! This
Cailyn lip gloss just glides on the lips. It is not sticky or thick, which is
great and sometimes rare to find in a gloss... it feels very smooth on the lips!
Cailyn’s another brand that I have been very happy with and I will definitely
keep buying.
Nourish Organic is 100% natural and USDA certified organic. How awesome
is that? This face cleanser has 3 main ingredients:
Aloe vera, which
cleans the skin without drying or irritating it
Cucumber, which
hydrates, soothes, and replenishes the skin
Watercress, which
protects the skin from stress and fatigue because of the antioxidants in it.
I like the ingredients for the cleanser and I like the brand (I have a
Nourish Organic moisturizer that I really like). I just feel that after a day
of wearing makeup, it doesn’t feel like it is really cleansing my face as good
as other cleansers. It is a light and mild cleanser that I feel is great to use to wash my face in the mornings when I want
something light. Overall, it is still a good product.
I love makeup brushes. I don’t think that you can ever have enough of
them! This brush is made up of synthetic fibers and is very easy to use. The
bristles are nice and soft and pick up just the right amount of shadow for
application. I have brushes that either pick up too much product or not enough and
this one is perfect. I also love the dual ends so I can travel with just one
brush for my eyes!
I have never heard of the Crown Brush brand and I am happy that Ipsy
introduced me to it, I may have to buy some more products from them! Their
website has a nice variety of brushes, but they also sell makeup (which remind
me of BH Cosmetics), makeup tools, and cosmetic cases. It’s worth it to check
their site and products out.
This is the only product that I have not tried yet. This is a hair
product that you leave in after you wash and towel dry your hair. You can use
it on its own or before styling it. Here are the 10 benefits that they list for
using this product:
1.
Moisture
2.
Shine
3.
Smoothness
4.
Softness
5.
UV Protection
6.
Manageability
7.
Strength
8.
Anti-breakage
9.
Heat Protection
10.
Light Hold.
These are some great benefits and I cannot wait to try it out! The
Caviar CC Cream has a nice, thick texture that is a little sticky, but smells amazing.
I will let you all know my thoughts after I use it.
All in all, I am very happy with my September Ipsy bag! The 4 products
that I tried I will definitely use up.
Great job once again, Ipsy! I can’t wait for October’s bag!
