Ipsy’s October theme was beauty candy. This month wasn’t really a great one for the
products, but the makeup bag that they came in is one of my favorites! It is a teal quilted bag with a side zipper.

I got 5 items this month with a good variety of products. (But not enough makeup if you ask me…I know,
it seems like I say that every month!)
Figs & Rouge Rose
Berry Shea Butter Hand Cream $6.56 full size – I don’t have much to
say about this since it’s a hand cream and pretty self-explanatory. It does smell nice and it’s a great size to
throw into your purse or keep at work!
MICA Beauty Mineral
Eye Shadow; $14.95 full size in Reluctance
– I really like mineral eye shadow, so my only complaint with this is the
color. It’s a very pretty shimmery
green, but I don’t usually wear green eye shadow.
Nourish Organic
Moisturizing Organic Face Cleanser with Cucumber and Watercress $13.99 full size, trial size $2.34 – I have to say that I absolutely hate
trying new facial cleansers. There’s
just too much of a risk that my skin will hate it and my face’s way of
punishing me is breaking out. I did try
this for the sake of the blog but did not like it at all. It smelled bad. Like dirt.
Plus I had to wash my face twice to even get all my makeup off.
Skyn Iceland Glacial
Cleansing Cloths; Full Size $15, trial size $5 – I
don’t normally use face cleansing cloths.
I always feel like I have to wash my face after I use them anyway, so I
don’t really get the point. But I’ll
save these for when I’m travelling. I
could see them coming in handy in the airport!
Starlooks Lip Gloss
in Guilty Pleasure; full size $12, trial size $6? – I really didn't like
this lip gloss at all. It was sticky and
it went on really goopy so even when I tried to blend it in, I could see
streaks on my lips. If this is what
all their lip-glosses are like, I definitely warn you to stay away!
The total value of the items in my bag this month is $34.85. It’s not as high as it usually is, but not
bad for the $10 I spent! Although most
of the products were a complete dud for me, the cute bag definitely redeemed it!
If you’re interested in trying Ipsy for $10 a month, here’s

I've heard rumors that the holiday bags (November and
December) are usually pretty awesome so it may be a great time to give it a
shot!! If you don’t like some of what you
end up with, I’m sure they’d make great stocking stuffers and you can still
cancel anytime!
Thanks for reading!!
