ipsy August 2015 'glam bag' reveal ♥

Ipsy's theme for August is 'prep school'.

This bag design totally reminds me of the movie "Clueless"!

Excited for the sneak peek items this month.

Stay tuned!

ipsy June 2015 sneak peek of the 'glam bag' ♥

So lately ipsy started releasing their sneak peeks via snapchat rather than Instagram or Facebook.

It's a bummer because I don't use snapchat.  Hence, no sneak peeks were posted the last couple months.  But I was surprised to see a sneak peek of the 'glam bag' on Facebook this morning!

This is what the ipsy bag will look like for June♥

It's black with 'ipsy' embossed all over.  And what does the water mean?

Is this bag waterproof?  Is it made out of rubber?

Very curious.

What do you think of the bag?

ipsy glam bag contents for May 2015 ♥

I received my tracking number yesterday and when I checked, it was already delivered!

This was my fastest ipsy delivery ever!

This month's theme is 'Jetsetter'.

And the bag is a canvas material bag that came in 3 different variations.

I'm pretty happy with mine!

The interior of the bag totally caught me off guard--a neon green lining.

Alterna Haircare Caviar CC Cream

CC cream for the hair?  It stands for 'Complete Correction'.

First off, this product smells amazing.  I really love it.

It can be used for many things.  On damp hair or dry, for styling, heat protection, adding shine, etc.

That's just to name a few.

Sounds very promising.

My Sample Value $8.50

(Full size value $25.00)

Peter Lamas Detoxifying Citrus C Facial Cleanser

I'm overflowing in facial scrubs right now so a normal cleanser is perfect.

I'm happy to learn that Pharmaca carries this brand and if you know me, I love everything from Pharmaca.  Yay!

My Sample Value $3.75

(Full size value $14.99)

pixi by petra Beauty Bronzer - *Summertime*

So this is my first ever bronzer!

I've never used it before...but after watching and learning from beauty vloggers, I'm totally trying this out.  I'll be learning to contour my face!

My Value Sample ~$10.00

(Full size value $18.00 for a bronzer + kabuki brush set)

bellapierre Gel Eyeliner - *Ebony*

Very creamy and soft.

Heavily pigmented too.  I hope it doesn't smudge.

This is great because I only have 'colored' liners right now.

Was in need of a black one!

My Sample Value $14.99 (Full size!)

Urban Decay 24/7 Glide on Lip Pencil + Bonus Lipgloss - *Failbait & Bittersweet*

I was really looking forward to this one.

I've never tried a lip primer before.  This sample comes with a lip primer (in ozone) and 2 foil samples of their lipgloss.  Only thing is, how do I use these lip gloss samples?

Do I need to use a lip brush to apply it?

Hmmm....  I'm loving that purple one though.

My Sample Value $15.00 for Lip pencil, Gloss, unknown value.

(Full size value $20.00)

This is why I love beauty box subscriptions...

All of these products are new to me (except for the eyeliner) so it's a learning experience.

The total value of this month's glam bag (roughly) comes to $52.24

Wow, that's a great value! Plus I got a cute canvas pouch♥

How was your ipsy this month?

ipsy May 2015 glam bag ::3 versions:: ♥

Apparently, this month (for the first time) ipsy will be sending out variations in the bag!

There looks to be 3 different versions.

I'm not sure which one I'm getting but my account shows that I'll be receiving the middle design.

They are all cute though, so surprise me, ipsy!

ipsy May 2015 Glam Room reveal ♥

I randomly logged into my ipsy account and I was given the choice to get early access to my glam room.  Uh, of course!!

This month's theme is 'Jetsetter'.

Oooo~

This month's bag is very simple. 

It almost looks like a canvas material but it's hard to tell.

A nice variety of products.

And I'm so glad I got the Urban Decay Lip Pencil!

Here is what I'm getting this month:

Alterna Haircare Caviar CC Cream

Urban Decay Revolution High-Color Lipgloss and 24/7 Glid on Lip Pencil 

BellaPierre Cosmetics Waterproof Mineral Gel Eyeliner Pencil

Peter Lamas Detoxifying Citrus C Facial Cleanser

Pixi by Petra Beauty Bronzer

Again, I'm stoked about the UD Lip pencil.

I'm also pretty happy with the Eyeliner pencil since I'm running low on my black.

(Assuming that I'm getting a black one)

I'm also excited to try the bronzer.  I've never tried it before and after watching so many beauty tutorials, I'm ready to give it a try!

ipsy April 2015 glam bag ::a closer LOOK:: ♥

ipsy released their (final?) sneak peek today and it's a close-up of the bag this month!

I posted it earlier on the sneak peek post but this gives us a much better look at it.

I really like it and I can see that it's a woven piece.

I'm glad it's not like a plastic material with the pattern printed on it.

I think it's so cute and totally fits the 'bohemian' theme♥

I believe bags will start shipping out by the end of this week!

ipsy March 2015 sneak peek of the 'glam bag' ♥

Here is a sneak peek of the ipsy glam bag for March♥

This month's theme is "Floral Fantasy".

I'm really liking this bag!  

It's refreshing to see a bag that isn't just colors or patterns.

The floral design is perfect for spring.

(Some people were hoping for a green, St. Patrick's theme)

And here is an early sneak peek of some items.

All subscribers will receive ONE or the other.

NYX Lipstick

NYX Eyeshadow

These look to be full size.

I'm hoping for the lipstick!  I have so many netural, nude shades of eyeshadow.

ipsy February 2015 sneak peek of the 'glam bag' ♥

We have our first sneak peek of the upcoming February ipsy bag ♥

Just as I suspected, it's a pink bag!  Being the month of Valentine's day and all.

I'm also wondering if this month's theme is 'ipsyLOVE'.

Not sure.

And here is an early sneak peek of some item(s) that will be included in our bag.

I have plenty of eyeliners but I'm betting we're all going to receive one or another.

And I'm hoping 3rd time is the charm-- I'm totally eyeing that lash curler!

It's been offered the last 2 months and I didn't get it in my bag. 

Please PLEASE include a lash curler in my bag this month, ipsy!

ipsy January 2015 sneak peek of the 'glam bag' ♥

Here's a closer look at the bag we will be receiving from ipsy this month.

I can't tell what material it's made out of but I really like the blue color.

It feels very refreshing, fitting for this month's theme which is "Fresh Start".

I also got notification today that shipping has begun!

Haven't received a tracking yet but usually when I do, it's already halfway here.

Can't wait to check out my items!
