ipsy August 2015 glam room reveal ♥

This month's theme for ipsy is 'prep school'.

The bag totally matches the theme too.

This month I'm getting:

JUARA skincare radiance facial mask

Skone cosmetics luxe doubler eye/lip pencil in Wine

Briogeo blossom & blossom volumizer

noyah Natural Lipstick

Trust Fund Beauty nail polish in Elegantly Wasted

Overall, this looks like it's going to be a MUCH better bag than last month.

My bag was pretty bad last month...

I really like the nail polish shade!

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 Glam Room reveal ♥

Today we had the option to reveal our ipsy glam rooms.

Of course I want to see!

But first, this month's theme is 'Swim into beauty'.

I posted the bag design the other day and I'm still curious whether it's waterproof or not.

The teaser photo suggests that it is.

Interesting!

So at first glance I noticed that I'm not getting the Too Faced Melted lipstick.

I'm so sad....I really wanted it!

Instead, I got the smashbox primer which I probably won't really use. 

aaah well...

These are what I'm receiving this month:

J.Cat Beauty Liptitude Hydrating Stain (2 variations of color)

Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer

BioRepublic Skincare Sheet Mask Trio 

(3 sheet masks in Aloe Rescue, Cucumber Breeze and Green Tea Detox)

Lavanila Laboratories Body Butter in Pure Vanilla

tre'StiQue Mini Shadow Crayon (4 variations of color)

I will be sampling all 3 sheet masks!  How cool is that? It almost counts as 3 full items.

Also, the mini shadow crayon will have 4 different shades.  I hope I get the Marimoto Pink Pearl.  I'd prefer a color over another neutral/nude shadow.

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 Room reveal ♥

Early access was today and of course I wanted to see the spoilers!

At first glance it feels kind of meh... but I realize it's a good variety!

I have two lip products however.

Let's break it down!

This month I am getting:

JulieG Nail Color in Damsel (a mid-tone pink creme)

theBalm NUDE Dude Single Eyeshadow in either Flirty or Fit

The Olive Lip Balm

Crown Brush Oval Concealer Brush

Gallany Lipstick in Petal

Not totally excited but you can never judge from photos.

I can't wait to get it in the mail and play around with them.

I may discover something new!

The lipstick looks like a gorgeous shade...Oooo~♥

And not one but TWO choices...

o boy--the OCD in me wants one of each...

But I think I will go with the "California Box" on one account and choose the Jane Iredale Lip Stain for my other account.  That's if they don't sell out before I get my Sample Choice Email.

The Birchbox PLUS add-ons have also been revealed but I will make a separate post on that.

I feel so giddy! I'm just really loving this month's theme!

O, and did you see those box design? LOVE♥
