I think I hit the jackpot this month from both of my $10 subscription bags: Ipsy and Sephora Play. Although I didn’t get any makeup brushes this month, the travel size and full size products I received were top notch IMO. Surprisingly, I got the same product in both bags lol. Let’s take a look. …
This month sure went by fast. Both Ipsy and Sephora Play for September arrived in my mailbox on Friday. Both contained things I like as well as, sadly, one near miss. Let’s take a look. Ipsy Like. A. Boss. This month’s Like. A. Boss. themed bag from Ipsy comes in an embossed black plastic makeup …
Ipsy is changing things up. This month, instead of the raspberry pink metallic mailing envelope that I’ve been getting for three years, I received a gold metallic mailing envelope. Pretty and eye-catching. Inside the mailer, I found this month’s heavy plastic that almost feels like fabric makeup bag: ombre shades of lavender through raspberry pink …
I definitely view the passage of time by Ipsy bags. Yesterday, I received my “Volume Up” glam bag for June 2017. Fitting with the theme, the contents of my bag are primarily makeup! How could I disagree with that? The bag is cute. It’s a waxed cottony fabric in beige with lighter beige polka dots …
I think that Ipsy definitely continues to have the edge in the competition of inexpensive makeup subscriptions. I got another winner on Saturday from Ipsy: all makeup! Yay! The theme is Summer Friday. When I worked in advertising in New York, we had summer Fridays. At one agency, we got out on Friday at 1pm, at …
I really mean it. This could be my best ipsy bag yet! I love everything I got. The theme is Side Show, and I’m not quite sure what that concept has to do with anything. The Side Show used to be associated with something “less than” the main event, and often associated with freaks. Kinda …
Happy St. Patrick’s Day for those who celebrate it! I usually do a green eyeshadow look or a green mani, but truth be told, I forgot about it. Shame on me. So I’m going to go with my regular post. Have fun today. Don’t drink the green beer, yuck. I’ve been trying to decide for …
Well, I can’t say that I’m a big fan of the makeup bag itself from Ipsy this month. It’s February, and they named the bag “Much Love”, so I definitely wasn’t expecting faux denim even with the red plastic piping around the edges. Oh well, I guess I’m not going to love the bag every …
I’ve fallen behind in my subbie bag reviews. Just too many at once. My Birchbox subscription ended in December, and I’m relieved. I’d actually like to get rid of one more, but I can’t decide if I should keep ipsy or keep Sephora Play. I still love the makeup bags from ipsy and the fact …
