Ipsy, August 2014, Beauty Schooled.

Hmm, I don't even remember getting a notification about my bag being mailed, nor do I really think I saw any spoilers, so I had no idea what to expect from Ipsy this month.

Ipsy is only ten dollars a month, and every month they send you a makeup bag full of products that are based on your profile. The bags consist of full-size and sample size products. I've found their makeup bags make amazing pencil cases for my massively huge pen and sharpie marker collection.

This is what was in my pink bubble mailer.

Perversion Mascara from Urban Decay, worth about $11.00 because it's a generous sample size and I'm estimating it to be about half of the full-size product, which is worth twenty-two.

I FUCKING LOVE URBAN DECAY,  they're my favorite makeup company. I love their Perversion black 24/7 eyeliner... Hell I love all their eyeliners. I love their naked palette. So this product alone made my bag amazingly awesome. I can't wait to wear this. 

SrtiVectin  Present Perfect antioxidant defense lotion,  worth $8.67 based on the price of the full-size product in comparison to the sample.

I'm always looking for an anti-aging skin product, so I'm eager to see if this product works, although it's quite a small sample, so I'm not sure I'll be able to see much of a result. Also, I don't know if I'd want to spend $59.00 for a full-size tube of it because I'm cheap like that.

Jersey Shore Sun Mongogongo Nutrient Defense, full-size, worth $5.50. 

I never say no to free chap stick, and I like how this chap stick is all natural and organic. 

MANNA! sheer glo, shimmer lotion, worth maybe $3ish dollars?

On my hand.

Blended on my hand, as you can see, this is not a good color for me. It make me look like I have a second degree burn that matches the one I have on my wrist from burning myself on the salmon tray after we cooked dinner tonight. 

Bronzer products just aren't my forte.

I have absolutely no interest in this product.

J Cat Flying Solo Eyeshadow in Half-Naked, full-size, worth $2.29.

I love the cute little applicator and mirror on the bottom of the compact.

Swatched on my hand.

This is a nice nude color. It's the perfect base color for a neutral every-day teaching look. It's nothing special, but I surely don't mind having more neutral shadows. 

Total: $30.46, about three times what I initially paid for it.

I was quite pleased this month, I'm thrilled about my mascara sample, that just made the entire bag for me, and I surely don't mind some more eye shadow and chap stick.

So check out Ipsy, it really is one of my favorite subscriptions.
