November 2014 Ipsy

First of all, let me apologize for not posting last week.  I went to Florida for Thanksgiving with my parents and not so little sister.  We had a great time even though it was a little too cold for proper beach attire.  Here we are "twinning" in our matching sweaters and necklaces!  There was obviously some sun and LOTS of wind!

Now on to what you actually came here for.  November’s Ipsy theme was Girl Meets Glitter. I love the bag this month!  The glitter is covered in plastic so you don't have to worry about it making a mess!  Overall I was really happy with what I got!

SeaRx Birch Sap Moisturizing Lotion; Full size $32, Sample Size $2 – Even though this was such a small sample, I was so glad I got to try it!  It’s not greasy and it smells like grapefruit!  The only thing I don’t like about this is there’s no SPF.  The full size is also a lot more than what I want to pay for a moisturizer. http://searxbeauty.com/advanced-scar-gel-15.html

It Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Corrector; Full Size $24, Sample Size $9.46 – I've been searching for a new under eye concealer so I was really excited that I got this!  It works OK, but its still not that miracle in a tube that I’m really looking for.

J Cat Beauty Wonder Lip Paint Full Size $4.99 - My first thought when I saw this was "ewww".  The color is a dark hot pink, almost on the verge of purple.  I decided to try it just to see if it looked better on.  Surprisingly it wasn't quite as drastic as I thought it would be...as long as you use a tiny bit.

Marc Anthony Oil Of Morocco Argan Oil Volume Shine Hairspray; Full Size $8.99, Sample Size $1.65 - I really love this hairspray!  It holds your hair in place but isn't crunchy at all.  I was worried about how it would smell, but I really love it.  I will definitely buy this in the future!

Starlooks Gem eye Pencil in Ultra Olive Full Size $17 - This is a green glittery eyeliner.  At first I was really not too excited about this.  How does one wear a green glittery eyeliner?  I'm still not really sure how you're supposed to wear it.  I put it on with darker eye shadow just on my top lid.  Then I put a thin line of black over it.  I actually liked how it looked and since it's full size, it should last a while!

This month's bag was great!  The total Value of what I got was $35.10 which is lower than most months, but I don't mind since I was happy with pretty much everything that I got.  I'm really looking forward to December's bag! If you're thinking of trying Ipsy, do it!  It's totally worth the $10 a month!  Here's my referral link! http://www.ipsy.com/r/6b49?sid=ipsypoints&cid=general
