Ipsy Glam Bag Review: August 2015

Hi friends! I know its only been a few days since I posted a review for my July Glam Bag but I received my August Glam Bag in the mail today and I figured it was only appropriate to review it ASAP. Without wasting too much time, let's take a look at my Ipsy Glam Bag for August 2015.



After opening my shiny pink package I was left to this funky looking make up bag. I'm not sure of the exact name of this print but I know I have seen it on skirts/blazers before... I feel like its something I've seen in Clueless ? The theme for this Glam Bag was back to school therefore I think this print is rather fitting. Pairing this print with the pink zipper makes one cute combination! I also adore the fact that this make up bag is made out of material that feels water resistant which means it would be perfect to take just about any where, and if you're clumsy like me and spill a lot this is also the perfect bag for you.


Without wasting too much time, I immediately ripped opened my bag. I was happy to find some familiar as well as new products inside. At a quick glance I was mostly impressed with this bag!

Item # 1: Hikari Lip Gloss
I am never disappointed to find a lip product or two in a subscritipon service especially a lip gloss! This particular lip gloss is in the shade salsa and it is perfect! Its the perfect colour to pair with a casual outfit. I've never heard of the brand Hikari before but after browsing online I've seen fantastic reviews. This lip gloss alone is $13 which means its worth more than the $10 bag itself! Below is a picture of what the colour looks like when applied.


Item # 2 :StarLooks Pro Eye Liner Pen

StarLooks is not a brand I am familiar with but you can never go wrong with eyeliner! I don't wear a lot of eye make up but I do like to apply eye liner for special occasions and nights out. I browsed online for reviews on this eyeliner and most of which were fanastic! This eye liner comes out in a felt pen and dries fast which I think is necessary when applying make up! The retail price of this eyeliner is $19 which is a steal to find in this bag since you're only paying $10. Overall, I am very impressed with this product and I cannot wait to try it out.

Item # 3 : Lord and Berry Nude Lip Liner

This picture was a little hard for me to get but this is a nude lip liner from Lord and Berry. Lord and Berry is another brand I am unfamiliar with. I did some online browsing and I found out this brand is from the UK. The reviews for this lip liner were fantastic and everyone raved about this particular colour. I don't like that the colour of this liner is considered nude as I think it is way darker than that but it is very natural looking and I have lipsticks I can wear this with. Another favourite in my bag this month! This lip liner sells online for $18.54 Canadian making it another steal.

Item # 4 : Jesse's Girl Eye Shadow Primer
I wasn't overly thrilled to find eye shadow primer in my bag as I am not an eye shadow person but Jesse's Girl is a very good make up brand and I will find some use out of it. A friend of mine told me that eye shadow primer works very well for eye liner as well.

Item # 5: Batiste Dry Shampoo

AH! I was so excited to receive a travel size bottle of Batiste Dry Shampoo. It is by far my favourite dry shampoo and they all smell so good! This was probably my favourite item to receive and I could rave about this forever. If you haven't tried Batiste dry shampoo, I recommend you do!

That was all that came in my Ipsy Glam Bag for the month of August but I am pretty confident this is my favourite bag to date. All the products I will use and for the most part they followed my quiz results. I can't wait to see what comes in my September Glam Bag!
