Alright, so for those of you who don't know what Ipsy is, I shall enlighten you. Ipsy is a website that you can subscribe to, for $10/per month and receive a "glam bag" monthly, containing product samples chosen by a group of professional stylists. This is my 2nd month of trying, so I figured it would be fun to go the products I received last month, being February!
Alright, so first I shall review this: tre'StiQue (a baby blush stick in Bora Bora Coral).
I've never used a blush stick before, though my best friend once told me that you can use lipstick for blush sometimes, and it works really well (and from what I recall, it really does). For some reason, I was hesitant in trying this product - I don't know why, maybe because I didn't think the color would be right for my skin? But I did eventually try it, and I used my fingers to gently dab it into my skin after applying foundation.
And wow.
I love it! I normally use a blush powder I've had from MAC but now use this underneath that! It gives my cheeks a tint of rosiness, but not too much as to look red. It gives them the right amount of color, and it lasts for hours! Needless to say, I'm in love.
The 2nd product is: VINTAGE by Jessica Liebeskind; Sparkling Lipgloss in Pink Sequin
I am personally a huge fan of lip gloss and immediately tried this after having received my month's glam bag. I. Am. In. Love!! It's a bit sticky at first and smells vaguely like cinnamon, but the smell isn't too strong, and it doesn't particularly have a taste. But I love the glossiness of the...well, lip gloss, and I love how long it lasts! I like wearing this over one of my nude lipsticks, to give it more of a glow, and to keep my lips hydrated. Love love love!
My 3rd product is: IT Cosmetics; Bye Bye Under Eye (Anti-Aging Concealer)
So despite the fact that I'm 20 years old, and (hopefully) don't have any wrinkles as of yet, I still tried this product because I ran out of concealer weeks ago and am a bit too lazy to go out and buy more. Anyhow, this product is VERY thick and creamy - a little goes a long way! When I first used it, I put a dab that I personally thought was small, but it was way too much for under eye wear. I had to wipe some off with a tissue. So when using this product, use what you probably think isn't enough because trust me, it is!
And my last product I will be reviewing is my favorite: Cake Beauty; heavy cream intensive hand repair balm
I LOVE lotions! And ever since I started working at a fast food restaurant, my hands have dried so badly. So when I found this in my month's glam bag, I instantly used it! It's a thick cream, and you may want to be mindful of how much you use, although you don't want to use too little. Find the amount in between. This hydrates your skin so well and makes your hands feel incredibly soft. Plus, it smells so good, too! It's my favorite scent of all time - French Vanilla. Ahhh.
Anyhow, so these are my favorite products from February's glam bag. I received my March bag today, but will wait 'till the end of this month to share my favorite products with ya'll. But yes, I highly suggest getting subscribed to Ipsy because it's super fun, and cheap! Especially if you're someone like me who loves trying out new products.
