Lets get this blog series going with Ipsy Glam Bag!
I received the March box on Wednesday and this month's theme is "Destinations." Each month, you get a new makeup bag, and 4 products (some are full sized and some are deluxe sample sizes). Here is what this month's bag looks like.....
This print was designed by an artist named Klari for Ipsy
I like the print a lot and the bag itself feels like oil cloth, an almost rubbery but not quite cloth. It would be easy to clean so it is perfect for travel! I also love the fact that they are having upcoming artists design the prints.
This month, I received a lip stick (deluxe sample size), a primer (deluxe sample size), a felt tipped liquid liner pen (full size) and an eye shadow trio (full size). Here's what I got.......
I'm familiar with all of the brands except for the eyeliner, which is made by Chella. Overall, really happy with what I got! Since I received this on Tuesday, I have used all of the products except for the eyeliner. Now for the swatches and my impression of each!!!!
bareMinerals marvelous Moxie Lipstick in the shade "Get Ready"
This is a pretty pinky neutral color. It's kind of a "Your Lips but Better" color. I have used this as kind of a "stain", just applying lightly and rubbing it into my lips. That gave me a few hours of wear time, only drinking out of a straw, no eating.
NYX Eyeshadow Trio in "Love in Rio"
This is a great neutral trio. The swatches on my hand are without eye primer. I use these over a neutral eyes shadow pencil (like milani shadow eyez pencil in 03 Champagne Toast or Avon Extralasting Eye Shadow Pencil in Shimmering Sand.) and I get great staying power and more of an opaque color. Overall, this is a great shadow trio - you can get a few different looks with just this one trio!
Pixi Flawless Beauty Primer
Do you see that kind of wet looking spot above my thumb? That's the primer. It is sort of tinted, but as you can see blends nicely with my skin tone. It does have shimmer in it, so if you have oily skin this isn't for you. I used it under my Revlon Colorstay foundation and it gave me a nice glow, but not anything to crazy. I don't usually use a primer, just moisturizer and then foundation so this is a product that I would never have tried or purchase in full size.
Chella: hello beautiful eyes Eyeliner Pen in Indigo Blue
Let me start off by saying I am not a liquid liner person. I use gel eyeliner on special occasions, but that's as far as it goes for me. I might consider using this one though because the tip is able to be used in ways to get different thicknesses. The color is pretty, I can see myself experimenting with this for a "pop if color" The tip is very soft and doesn't seem to drag at all when applying.
So, that's my March Glam Bag. If you receive Ipsy and got any of these products or are familiar with them, let me know what ya think!
I'll post about my other boxes as I receive them. Goodnight peeps!
