Ipsy March 2014 Glam Bag Reveal!

Ipsy March 2014 Glam BagIpsy March 2014 Glam Bag

Hi! Beauties! Today here on Beth and Beauty I am going to reveal what products that were in my Ipsy March 2014 Glam Bag. This months theme was Destination Beauty. Just let me say, I am very pleased with this month’s products. The bag does take some getting used to and is a little small to me, but it is neat that the design was hand picked from the “Street Anatomy” series by the artist Klari Reis. For you that are new and have not heard of Ipsy, let me tell you about it. It is a monthly beauty subscription where you receive 4-5 deluxe sample or full size products in an different makeup bag each month. The cost per month is only $10 and that includes shipping. You take a personal quiz when you join to help them know what kind of products to send you. If you would like to check it out and/or subscribe to Ipsy just click on blue link. I have been subscribed for almost a year and I love my subscription. Yes, there are months that I may not like some of the products that I get but I always get my moneys worth. Now on to the products I received:

  1. Full size Nicole by OPI Roughles nail lacquer  in “On What Grounds?” (sky blue). These Roughles nail lacquers go on like regular nail polish, but dry to to a speckled, textured finish. ($9)
  2. Deluxe Sample of Pacifica Indian Coconut Nectar Body Butter 2.5 Fl. Oz. If you love the smell of coconut, you will love this scent. A full size of this product contains 8 Fl. Oz. ($15), so this size would be worth approximately $4.75.
  3. Deluxe Sample for the Bare Minerals Moxie lipstick in the color “Get Ready” (mauve/pinkish).  The deluxe sample contains .05 oz, the full size contains .12 oz @ $18
  4. Full size Be A Bombshell eye shadow quad called Bora Bora. Beautiful and pigmented colors, swatches below. ($16)

So if you do the math and don’t even include the deluxe sample of Bare Minerals Moxie lipstick or makeup bag, this month’s bag is worth $29.75.  Below is swatches of the Bare Mineral Moxie lipstick and the Be A Bombshell eye shadow quad. I am also going to include a close up picture of this month’s makeup bag.

February 2014’s Ipsy Bag Reveal!

Ipsy Bag February 2014 (1)

Hi! Beauties! Today I was so excited to get my February’s Ipsy monthly subscription bag in the mail. Well I am excited every month. It is just such a pleasant experience each month to go to your mailbox and see that pink sparkly package. If you are new and do not know what Ipsy is, it is a monthly beauty subscription that only cost $10 a month. You  get at least 2 full size products and 3 travel size products in a different makeup bag each month. When you join you fill out a questionnaire that helps them personalize your bag each month. I have enjoyed receiving my bag now every month for almost a year. Some months the bags products are better than others, but to me for $10 it can’t be beat. I will leave a link at the bottom of this post, so if you are interested in joining, all you will need to do is just click on the link and then you will be taken directly to their website for you to sign up. There is sometimes a waiting list you have to be put on, but I don’t believe it is too terribly long of a wait.

Ipsy Makeup Bag February 2014

First, look at this month’s makeup bag. I love it!! It is pink with pink leopard print on the inside. Who could not love this?

Ipsy Bag February 2014 (2)

This months bag’s theme is called “The Look of Love”.  Inside my bag this month were the following products:

  1. A Pop Beauty Plump Pout Mini lip gloss 4g/0.14 oz  in Peony Petal. I love the beautiful rosy pink color. Their website says that this plumping pout perfector combines the high-shine of a lacquered gloss with the long wear of a stain and is packed full of lip-plumping peptides and avocado and jojoba oils. Lightweight, creamy texture immediately merges with lips & delivers intense glossy color for an extremely long-lasting finish. The full size of this product on their website is $16.00.
  2. A Zoya full size 0.5 fl oz nail polish in the color Dot. It is a very pretty baby pink. It is pink so I know I already love it. The Zoya’s website says that this season’s Zoya Nail polish are full of pure pigment, intense color and modern complexity that are a perfect transition into Spring. This product on their website is $9.00.
  3. A First Aid Beauty Skin Rescue Deep Facial Cleanser with Red Clay 1 oz. I can not wait to try this cleanser out, I seem to be collecting facial cleansers lately. I love trying out new ones, because as a true beauty enthusiast you can never be for sure if there is not a better cleanser you have not tried yet…..LOL!  Their website says that the Skin Rescue Deep Cleanser with Red Clay removes excess oils, unclogs pores and purifies the skin with a powerful combination of Red Clay, Rosemary Leaf Oil and botanical antioxidants. By drawing out the skin’s toxins, this clay cleanser controls outbreaks and reduces sebum production for a more balanced complexion. Pores will instantly appear smaller, and the complexion will feel deeply cleansed. This foaming gel cleanser removes make-up, dirt and grime. It is perfect for anyone with problem-prone, combination or oily skin or as a deep treatment cleanse for normal skin. The full size 4.7 oz of this product on their webiste is $24.00.
  4. A pair of J Cat Beauty 100% Human Hair False Eyelashes + Eyelash Glue in the style EL15. I have never been able to master the skill of applying false eyelashes yet, but I am still working on it, so these will come in handy. Their website says to cause a ruckus as you bat your voluminous faux eyelashes! Each includes an individual eyelash adhesive for endurance through a night on the town. Now who would not want to cause a ruckus??? These eyelashes on their website are $3.99.
  5. A Jesse’s Girl 9 Pan Eye Shadow Compact in The Eyes Have It colors. I have never tried this brand, so I am excited to give this eye shadow compact a try. Their website says that Jesse’s Girl has put together four great eye shadow collections suitable for all: Brown Eyed Girl, Behind Blue Eyes, Tickled Pink, and The Eyes Have It. Each compact features nine coordinating eye shadows in a sleek, travel-friendly case. This eye shadow compact on their website cost $3.99.

I did the math and not even counting the gorgeous pink makeup bag or the travel size lip gloss and facial cleanser. This bag would be worth $16.98.  This month’s bag was a hit for me.  If you want to subscribe here is the link:
