Ipsy Glam Bag : June 2015

Hello, hello ! Sorry for being so MIA lately lots of life happening over here and I am going to try to do a life lately post in the near future!

Today, I have another review for all of you and its for my Ipsy Glam Bag. For those of you unfamiliar with Ipsy it is  monthly subscription service that will send you 5 samples and sometimes full size make up products to try! This service is only $10 a month and comes with a unique make up bag.



This is the make up bag that all of the samples came in this month. Personally, I am not a huge fan of this particular bag. The fabric feels a little cheap, and I hate that Ipsy is slathered all over it. The colours are nice, and I will still get use of it but definitely not my favourite make up bag I have seen from Ipsy.





After opening up the pouch here's a little preview of the goodies inside! At a quick glance I was not fully impressed as there was a few items on there I would of rather gone without. More on those products to come.

Item # 1: Healing + Vitamin E Penetrating Oil




 This oil is used to smoothe surface of the hair, add moisture and increase the strength and elasticity of your hair. I have yet to use this product, but I am one that uses a blow dryer and flat iron on a daily basis so I know that this could be beneficial to my hair. This is not a full size bottle, just a mini! 


Item # 2: Too Faced Melted Liquified Long Wear Lipstick

I was pretty excited to see a Too Faced product in my bag because I have heard such amazing things about their products. Also, I am a huge fan of lipstick so that was another plus!  I have not used this product yet but the colour is fabulous. For those of you wondering the shade of this lipstick is melted candy.

Item # 3: Aurora Gel Effect Nail Polish


Nail polish along with lipstick is a love of mine. I have never bought a gel effect nail polish therefore this will be a first for me! I am not huge on the colour, but I will not let it go to waste! 




Item # 4: Precision Beauty Eyelash Curler


I was extremely disappointed to see this inside of my glam bag. I do not use an eyelash curler and I cannot name a time I ever have. When signing up for Ipsy you take a survey and in my survey I have specifically requested not to have products along these lines. I will definitely be making note of this for next month to avoid receiving another one. 

Item # 5: TreStique Mini Eye Shadow Crayon


Again, another item I was not overly thrilled to receive. I also specifically asked for no eye shadow as its something I don't get a lot of use out of. I really only wear eye liner and mascara when I go out and mascara on a daily basis therefore any other eye products are of no use to me. I did however try this one out on my Graduation day and the colour is lovely. I may consider keeping this for more occasions if not I'll pass it along to my sister or a friend!








Overall, I would say this bag was 50/50. I didn't really like the bag, eye lash curler or eye shadow but I did like the nail polish, lipstick and Vitamin E oil. I am hoping that July's Glam Bag is much more suitable!
