Ipsy Glam Bag June 2014 Reveal *Beth and Beauty*

Ipsy Glam Makeup Bag for June 2014

Hi! Beauties! Today I am excited to reveal what I received in my June 2014 Ipsy Glam Bag. For those of you who may not know about nor have heard of the Ipsy Glam Bag, I will give you a brief description. Ipsy is a monthly beauty subscription service. It cost $10 a month, that includes shipping. You will not only get a different makeup bag every month but the bag contains a mixture of 4-5 deluxe samples and full size products. Ipsy tries to personalize your subscription by a survey you take when you join. You can cancel at anytime. I will share my referral link with you and if you use it I will earn points that I can use to get extra products. Once you join you can refer your friends and earn points also. Now let us get on with this June 2014 Ipsy Glam Bag and products. As you can see by the above picture, this month’s bag is a front zipper makeup bag with what I would call Hawaiian flowers on it. That would make sense since this months’ theme is “Pretty in Paradise”. I figured that out all by myself…..LOL!

Ipsy Glam Bag Beauty Products for June 2014

Now we will go over the five products I received in this months bag. The Ipsy website says this bag contains $35 worth of products. I totally agree!

  • Ole Henriksen truth to go wipes. Pack of Ten
  • Marc Anthony Dream Waves Beach Spray – deluxe sample 1.52 oz
  • Jesse’s Girl Liquid Eyeliner Pen in the color black – full size
  • Be a Bombshell Lash Out Mascara in the color black – full size
  • NYX Butter Lip Gloss in the color Éclair – full size

I am so pleased with this months bag. The only product that I am not sure about is the Jesse’s Girl Liquid Eyeliner Pen in black. When I opened it and turned it up the liquid flowed openly onto my hand. I don’t know if I got a damaged one or not. I can say once I got the mess cleaned up and tried it again it did go on back of my hand smooth and once set it did not want to come off. I had no problems with any of the other products. I totally like this month’s bag better than last month’s. I have been a member of Ipsy for over an year now and I can honestly say there has only been a couple of months that I was disappointed but not so disappointed that I would cancel. I have also got to try some great brands before I purchased the full size. If you would like to learn more about Ipsy or even subscribe click here.

Yes, there are months that I may not like some of the products that I get but I always get my moneys worth. Now let’s get down to the nitty gritty and see what I received this month.

Eva NYC Therapy Session Hair Mask

The Therapy Session Hair Mask deeply conditions, repairs and strengthens dry and damaged hair. Argan Oil nourishes and revitalizes, while Keravis Protein drastically increases hair’s strength and elasticity. The results are hydrated, soft and manageable hair.

To Use: Use either as a weekly treatment or an everyday conditioner. In either case apply generously to the hair, wait 2-5 minutes and rinse thoroughly. Use alone, or enhance with a few drops of the Eva NYC Hungry Hair Oil Treatment.

Weight: 2.03 oz  Full size 16.912 oz(500 mL) @ $40.00

I am really excited to have gotten this hair mask. I am always looking for new and good hair mask for my dry and color-treated hair.

Pacifica Mineral Eyeshadow Duo

The Pacifica Mineral Eyeshadow Duo are coconut infused mineral eye shadows that are a perfect addition to any makeup collection. Packaged in a beautiful travel ready recyclable container, these exclusive duos are customized just for ipsy! These shades can be found in the Pacifica Mystical and Charmed Palette. Smooth application with gorgeous color pay-off.ipsy subscribers who receive this product will receive Duo #1 (Celestial & Opal) or Duo #2 (Moonbeam & Unicorn).Weight: 0.07 oz  Mystical Palette is $14 (4 shadows) Charmed Palette is $17 (6 shadows)

I received the Duo #2 (Moonbeam & Unicorn). I am assuming the purple shade is Unicorn and the sparkly cream color is Moonbeam. I was not that happy with this product because the purple shade is not very pigmented. The sparkly cream color will be good to give the middle or inner 1/3 of my eye lid some shimmer.

Avene Thermal Spring Water Spray Mist

Known for its long history in treating atopic dermatitis, the Avène Thermal Spring Water is the only thermal spring water bottled directly from the source and packaged in a sterile environment to guarantee purity and maximum skin benefits. Its unique composition is proven to soothe inflammation, itching, redness, general sensitivity and post-medical and aesthetic procedure irritation as it softens, protects and purifies the skin. Avène Thermal Spring Water is recommended by dermatologists worldwide.

Spray onto the skin in a fine mist. May leave on for 2 to 3 minutes, and then gently pat dry. Ideal for use after cleansing, shaving, exercise, sun, to soothe diaper rash and set make-up to help keep it fresher looking longer.

Weight: 1.76 oz  Full size is 10.58 oz @ $18

When I followed the link on Ipsy’s website to buy this product to see how much full size is it led me to drugstore.com, which I am not complaining, I love Drugstore.com

This product is the one I am most excited about! I did spray it on my face already and Oh! yes it does sooth your face!

Jersey Shore Sun Sans Tan Anti-aging Sunscreen

The Jersey Shore Sun® Sans Tan Anti-aging Sunscreen contains non-nano, anti-aging, certified organic ingredients, including vitamin E (non-GMO) & vitamin D3 which can be deficient in individuals avoiding the sun. SPF 35 provides broad spectrum protection which prevents premature aging and helps to prevent health risks associated with prolonged exposure to the sun.

Weight: 0.5 oz  Full size is 2 oz @ $40

This product, I am not sure about. I guess I should be proud since I really don’t have a sunscreen and I know I need to use one but not on my face.  Most all my foundation and moisturizers already have sunscreen in them.

Calvin Klein endless euphoria

Refreshingly light and radiant, endless euphoria Calvin Klein translates the provocative fantasy of the iconic euphoria fragrance into a sunlit daydream filled with cherry blossoms and an air of sheer sensuality. A new dawn of euphoria arrives with the introduction of endless euphoria, a statement-making innovation on the signature that debuts an entirely original design and juice. endless euphoria sparks the rich sexiness of the signature with a fresh infusion of modern sensuality to create a newly addictive spin. Irresistibly alluring, the fantasy blooms with an uplifting feeling of ecstasy that knows no limits.

Weight: 0.1 oz  Smallest bottle sold is 2.5 oz @ $69. The link on Ipsy’s website led me to Macy’s  website to purchase.

I am very excited about this deluxe sample. It smells so good and it is a roller ball perfume sample.

The bag as you see above is nothing real fancy.  I actually like that it is just a cloth makeup bag. I can wash it, if it gets dirty and it holds more also.  All in all, I would say this was just an okay month for me! I definitely like last month’s bag better but I still got my $10 worth.
