September 2013 Ipsy Bag Review: Classic Beauty

Ipsy did it again for me! I haven't been disappointed since I subscribed in May. This month's theme is Classic Beauty. I love how they have themes each month. The products I got are awesome and I can do a whole face look with them, which is what I LOVE about ipsy. Every bag is enough products for a full look and also enough product for many many uses. This bag is worth $37.99!! Get your bag HERE!

Products I got:

The Bag(see above)

Can you say goregous! I love the color and you can fit a ton of makeup products inside it. The pattern is unique and classy.

Cailyn Tinted Lip Balm in Big Apple(value $19)

This lip balm looks so pretty.

I have another product from Cailyn that I love and it's their gel liner. This lip balm also has a little brush on top and it works well as a lip brush.
The product goes on easily and stays put.
It does not on transfer which is a huge plus!
The down fall is that the product is very drying. My advice is to add a good chapstick on first, then if it is still dry, put a little lipgloss on the top of the balm.
I love the color and it doesn't look over the top which is great for work!
I would recommend this to anyone.

NYX Single Shadow in Purple(value $4.50)

My husband took this picture because I couldn't capture the true color and he did a great job with how close he got. This purple has a pink side, but it is a cool purple.

This isn't' a super pigmented product, but it does do a decent job.
The color looks very pretty on and is a great crease color.
It is smooth going on and blends easily.
I would recommend this to anyone.

J.cat Beauty Fantabulous Lipstick in Honey Crisp(value $2.49)

I LOVE this nude color! I was super happy I got a nude this time around. Thanks ipsy!

It is very silky and goes on smoothly.
Do not have to layer much.
Lasts a decent amount of time.
It does transfer but most lipsticks do.
I would recommend this to anyone!

Elizabeth Mott It's So Big Volumizing Mascara 4ml (full size 10ml $19)

I was not impressed with this mascara.

I didn't feel like it did much for me, it did lengthen, but not much.
I had to layer it quite a bit for it to do anything.
Nothing special and wouldn't recommend it.

Starlooks Khol Eye Pensil in Obsidian(value $12)

I generally do not like eye pencils, I prefer gel liners, however this is nice.

It is silky and glides on effortlessly.
It is dark and lasts all day.
It doesn't smudge much, but it is easy to smudge on the lower lash line.
I would recommend this to anyone!

I also got a sample card of Michelle Phan's em cosmetics new makeup line of one of her eye palettes. I forgot to take a picture, but it is nothing much. I haven't tried it yet.
