February 2014 Ipsy Bag Review

Hey guys!!

It's that time again!! It's ipsy bag time!! Last month was so eehhh for me, but this month was so exciting!! Here's why: 


This month's make up bag is cute and simple. It didn't stink this month thank goodness.


Let's start with the products inside the bag. 
My most favorite product in this bag is the nail polish.


I was really excited about this especially since this is my first ZOYA nail polish! I got mine in the color ODETTE. I hope you see the color on my nails since this isn't my best picture. I only needed two coats and it dried kinda fast. I will be getting more ZOYA polishes in the future lol.

Next favorite product is the lipgloss.



I got POP beauty lipgloss in the shade Fuchsia Freesia. The only thing I don't like is that it has a weird scent, but thankfully it doesn't linger once you apply it to your lips. I love the color it's a very pretty pink and it covers up my natural lip color for the most part. 

My next product is Dr. Lin skincare Acne Spot Corrector.


This is a good product. This helps with any breakout that I have to dry them out. The bad thing is that it also dries out my skin around the area where I apply it so you have to make sure you moisturize really well. If you don't let it sink into your skin it will not work. It came with a $3 coupon so I'm going to try something else in this line soon. 

Next product is Jessie's Girl 9 Pan Eye Shadow Compact.


I was excited to try these shadows out. The only disappointment was that the first few colors are very sheer. I figured the first color would be, but the next few after that I was disappointed. Here are swatches:



I pretty much enjoyed the rest of the colors very pigmented and very blendable. They have a little bit of fallout so I have to tap off the excess off my brush. Overall I really liked the palette.
 
Now the final product is J. Cat beauty Eyelashes and Eyelash Glue


This was my very first time trying to put on lashes. OMG it was HARD! lol I don't think I'm a big fan of these lashes they might be too much for me. Maybe one day I will try some more natural ones. Anyone have any suggestions??

I LOVED this month's bag and I can't wait to see what March's bag will have to offer. If anyone wants to sign up it is only $10 a month and you always get 5 products and a different make up bag each month. You get deluxe samples and full size products.

Rose and Ben Beauty Brushes

 Hey guys!! I haven't done a beauty post in a while and I was in the mood to do one because I am very excited to talk about these! I started follow Rose on IG roseandben  thanks to my friend and I have been loving her content. You can see the passion she has for makeup. I love that she posts on IG stories almost everyday doing a tutorial or talking about her fav products.  I have actually purchased and few of her recommendations and 99% of the products I have bought have become staples in my collection.  When she announced she was coming out with a brand  Rose and Ben Beauty  I just knew it would be brushes because she would always be using prototypes in her tutorials. I trusted her judgment in products soooo I bought most of the collection.  Aren't these brushes beautiful?? When I first got the brushes I felt the bristles and they were so soft. The quality of the bristles and even the handles feels so luxurious. I love the color of the handles too. I ...

Battle of the Eye Primers

Hey guys!! I have oily eyelids and I struggled when I was younger with my eyeshadows and eyeliner creasing. At the time I never understood why. I went into sephora a couple years ago with my best friend and asked "how can I stop that from happening?" That's when I was introduced to eye primers. My first ever eye primer was the Too Faced Shadow Insurance. I have been testing out 6 different eyelid primers and out of the six only two did not work for me. I decided to do this blog for the people that have that same issue as me and to show you guys what options there are out there in the make up world from drugstore to high end.   I tried the ELF Eyelid Primer, Rimmel Exaggerate Undercover Shadow Primer, Mary Kay eye primer, Urban Decay Primer Potion, Too Faced Shadow Isurance, and BareMinerals Prime Time Primer. I'm going to start off with the one that was the worst one out of all of these. It was the Rimmel Exaggerate Undercover Shadow Primer. $4.99 ...

Aveeno ultra calming makeup removing wipes

Hey guys!!! I received the Aveeno makeup remover wipes as a gift! Finally I was able to stop using the horrible wipes that I was using before!! These wipes are amazing! They smell so good and everytime I take one out I have to smell it before I use it on my face. They are very moist and they remove most of my face and eye makeup. I always go with a cotton round with another makeup remover no matter which wipes I use just to make sure everything is off. I don't know if they remove waterproof mascara since I am not using one at the moment. Most IMPORTANTLY it did NOT break me out!  I looked online on walmart to see how much it was and it is around $7. I probably will purchase this myself later on down the line.
