January 2015 Ipsy Bag

Hey guys!!

It is time to review January's Ipsy Bag. I don't know why I am kind of getting over Ipsy and more into Birchbox. I might end up cancelling the subscription I am not sure yet...


This bag I only love 2 and gave away two to a friend.



This is a nice bag I will be using it for traveling purposes just like all my other favorites.

Pacifica Natural Mineral Coconut Eyeshadow


I believe I got the color Treasure I gave it to my friend the other night so I am not 100% sure. All I did was swatch it and this was one swipe. It was a nicely pigmented shadow, but I have too many neutral shadows I decided to give it to my friend. 

LaFresh Eco-Beauty Be Good. Good Day. Day Moisturizer.

I also gave this to that same friend just because I already have a good daytime moisturizer and I didn't want to to waste in my room.

Probelle Into the Blue Nail Laquer

I saw that a lot of people didn't like the shade of this nail polish, but me on the other hand I was actually excited for this color. I don't have this blue shade in my collection. Unfortunately I hate the formula. I had to do 3-4 coats which it is too much for me since I always like doing 2 coats. Also it took FOREVER to dry. 20 minutes had passed and it still wasn't dry. I had to go do something and it messed up and that's why I don't have a picture of the polish on my nails.

Bella Pierre Shimmer Powder


I didn't think I would like this to be honest. I got the shade Exite and it is basically a white shimmer. I probably wouldn't use this on its own on my lid, but what I did use it for is as a topper. I already did my eyeshadow and if I was in the mood for a little bit more shimmer then I would apply this on the top. I love the way it turns out, but I have to use a small amount so it won't take over the shadow underneath and it lasted all day. The shimmer didn't fade at all.

Elizabeth Mott All Over Shadow Brush

I love this brush so much! It is really soft and it didn't shed when I cleaned it. This brush applies product beautifully on the lid and even blend that shade nicely. 

Overall this bag was eh okay. Like I said in the beginning I am considering cancelling Ipsy soon if it doesn't get any better in the next couple of months. What did you guys get in your January bag?? Are you guys excited for February's bag??

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 ...

Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara

Hey guys!!! I saw a review on YouTube on a new mascara and after seeing that I really wanted to try it out. I went and bought the Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara in waterproof. I LOVE the Maybelline The Rocket mascara and it is my holy grail, but I always love trying other mascaras and see if it is as good or even better than The Rocket.  I really love the wand because I am able to reach the lashes in my inner corner. One important thing to me in a mascara is if the waterproof formula will keep my lashes curled all day without them falling. I am happy to say that my curl stay up all day with this mascara. This is my second Maybelline mascara that I have tried and I am noticing that if I didn't have a good makeup remover it would be really hard to remove.  This mascara gave me a little bit of length and good volume. I like to build up my mascaras and this will make my lashes clumpy after the second coat and I don't like the look.. Sometimes even if I am ...

Nails of the Week

Hey guys!!! I decided to talk about what is on my nails for the week. I will be doing this a couple times a month since I like to change my nail colors frequently! I used China Glaze polish in the color Frostbite and on top i used the Wet n Wild Wild Shine glitter polish. I am not too sure what the name of it is, but it is my favorite glitter polish to use. This was my first time using a China Glaze nail polish, but I was kinda disappointed. I had to apply the color about 3-4 times for it to be this pretty bright color. If you don't have time to sit there and apply this many coats and wait for it to dry I don't recommend this color.  The upside about this nail polish is that it lasts on your nails without chipping. Normally mine start chipping after 3 days because I wash my hands so many times a day since I work with kids. Right now its the 6th day and I only have minor chipping. Maybe I will try another color in this brand soon. You guys have any recommendatio...
