Ipsy Glam Bag July 2013

Hello again lovelies! This is a bit of a late night post, so I'm going to keep it rather short. But yesterday I received my very first Glam Bag from Ipsy, and I'm really excited to show off what I got. I'm sure you all know what Ipsy is and about the Glam Bags and such, but if you don't basically you sign up with Ipsy at their website and fill out your info to get the Glam Bag. It's $10 a month, and you get a cute little bag with various beauty items. This is my first bag, but from what I can see it's well worth the $10. If this is something you'd like to get involved with, you can use my referral link *Click Here* and get started with Ipsy. But let's get on to what's in the bag. :)


HealthySexyHair Soy Renewal Beach Spray
derma e Microdermabrasion Scrub
Coola Mineral Sunscreen
HealthySexyHair Soy Renewal Beach Spray - This is a "Beach look conditioning & texturizing spray with argon oil." I haven't used this yet, but it does have an interesting scent. I'm not really sure if I like the smell or not, but I have a really strong sense of smell so I'm probably the only one who cares. People have been raving about argon oil, so I'm pretty excited to give it a whirl.
derma e Microdermabrasion Scrub - From the packaging, "This award-winning exfoliator helps diminish the appearence of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars. Leaves skin youthfully radiant." I also haven't used this product, but I rubbed it between my fingers just to get a grasp on what to expect. It has a really nice consistency, the exfoliants in it are of a very fine grit similar to sand. Maybe finer than sand. In the jar it smelled slightly of peppermint, but it left a faintly lemon scent on my fingers that I found quite pleasant. The only thing I don't like is that it doesn't say if it's a face, body or all-over exfoliator, and being that I'm not familiar with this product I'm going to have to look it up.
Coola Mineral Sunscreen - This is a broad spectrum SPF 20 facial sunscreen. It's unscented, and it really has no scent. None. Color me impressed. I put a little on my face and it feels really nice, it's very light and slightly moisturizing. This is also organic.

BH  Cosmetics California Collection Sampler
BH Cosmetics California Collection Sampler - Inside
BH Cosmetics California Collection Sampler - This sampler comes with three eyeshadows, one from each of their California Collection palettes. I have all three of these palettes, and the eyeshadows are quite nice and pigmented. I actually got the idea to get all of the palettes from the Glam Bag Spoiler of this item.

Pop Beauty Pouty Pop Crayon in Coral Crush
Pop Pouty Pop Crayon in Coral Crush - Swatch
Pop Pouty Pop Crayon in Coral Crush - This is a lip crayon similar to Clinique's Chubby Sticks or Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains. The color is really pretty and has nice pigmentation. It has a light minty scent, but I can't smell it once on my lips. It's really moisturizing, and I like it quite a bit.

That concludes the items in my very first Glam Bag from Ipsy!! I think I got a lot of cool items, and best of all it's stuff that I probably wouldn't go out and buy on my own (aside from the eyeshadows lol) so it has me outside my usual comfort zone. The pink translucent bag they come in is really cute as well and would be great to throw in my purse with all my to go makeup safely tucked inside. I have had nail polish explode in my purse before, and let me just say it sucked. Definitely use a travel pouch for my makeup now.

  2. Pop Pouty Pop Crayon in Coral Crush looks amazing :) It's a good analogue to Clinique ;) Do they have other shades?

    1. It's really pretty, and I did wear it around for a bit and it leaves a pretty stain on your lips. I'm not familiar with this brand, I don't think I've even heard of it before, so I don't know if they have other colors though I'm assuming they do.
