I have been a long time subscriber to Ipsy. I have subscribed since their second bag. I seriously love this subscription! It is so inexpensive, yet they usually have a great value to the bag. The bags are so fun. I use the bags to keep my makeup and brushes in when I travel. They often include brands I have never heard of and brands I have. They include FULL SIZE products and deluxe size samples. I have found many holy grail items because of Ipsy.

Cost: $10.00/month

Ships: To the US and Canada


FIRST IMPRESSION:

This month’s bag was so cute! It came in a few different colors. I would have been happy with any of them. I really love the envelope style and the travel print. I couldn’t wait to dig in and see what all I received!


REVIEW OF ITEMS:

Hikari Shimmer Bronzer in Radiate ($17)

This is a FULL SIZE!  I love Hikari products and this bronzer is stunning. I am not sure how it will work with my skin tone, but I will try it. It is very pigmented which I love!

Epice Hydrating Mask

This is a nice size sample! I will be able to get a few uses out of it. I love masks and hydrating masks are my favorite. My skin tends to get very dry. I can’t wait to try this mask!

Pacifica Natural Beauty Trio: Skinny Dip/Crush/Lovely ($8.40)

This is a FULL SIZE! I love Pacifica and I really do enjoy their eyeshadows. They are not overly pigmented but you can build them up. They are so buttery and blend like a dream. I can’t wait to create a look with these shadows.

Biossance The Revitalizer

This is a sample size! I have tried this sample before and I like it. It is very expensive but very nice. I like their rose one better so I will be giving this one away.

Smashbox X-Rated Mascara

This is a sample size! It looks like a very basic mascara to me. However, I will have to test it on the eyes. I hope the formula impresses me.


OVERALL IMPRESSION:

I really liked this month’s bag. It is not my favorite, but I do like it! I will use many of the products I received. I can’t wait to see what June holds. It is my birthday month so I am hoping for an amazing bag! I can’t believe Ipsy is only $10! I will continue to subscribe to Ipsy! DUH!! What did you receive in your May bag? What do you think of the products this month? Let me know in the comments below!
