IPSY Bag- August

Ipsy, for anyone who doesn't know, is a beauty subscription service.  The bag comes once a month and is $10/month.  In each bag, there is typically 5 products that are sometimes full-size and sometimes a generous sample-size.  When you first sign up, there is a quiz you can take to help the stylists to make each bag more customized to the customer. 
 
I have personally been a subscriber to Ipsy for about a year and a half and I can honestly say that I am not the least bit disappointed.  I think that getting bag once a month is an excellent way to try products that I, otherwise, may not have tried.  The price can't be beat and it is a really great idea!  I highly recommend checking it out to anyone who enjoys makeup or is interested in makeup and beauty products!
 
(This month's bag)
 
This month's bag's theme is "Glamour Academy" and here are the 5 products that I received:

1. Michael Todd Pumpkin Face Mask

This is a new thing for me.  I have never tried any Michael Todd products but have heard good things about them and I am looking forward to trying this!
 

2. Smashbox Photo Finish Primer

I have used this primer for about 2 years now and I absolutely love it!  It is oil-free so it doesn't add oiliness at all.  It makes for a nice smooth base and I find that it blurs pores and fine lines.  This primer really is fabulous!
 

3.Pixie Lash Booster Mascara

This is another product that I have never used.  I am really looking forward to trying it out!
 

4.MICA Beauty Cosmetics Shimmer Powder in the color Bronze

I have used other MICA Beauty products that I received through Ipsy and I have enjoyed them.  I haven't used this particular product before, but I swatched it and it seems quite nice.  I look forward to using this (as an Eyeshadow). 
 

5. Urban Decay Revolution Lipstick in the color 69

This is the new Urban Decay lipstick and I haven't tried any of them before.  This isn't a color that I would usually wear, but I am going to give it a try.  I think it is a really beautiful color, just a little outside of my comfort zone.  I am looking forward to trying it out, though!  When I swatched this lipstick, it was nice and pigmented, opaque, and smooth!

 

 
 
All-in-all, this month's bag was a hit!  I really think I am going to enjoy using all of these products!  My plan is to use these products for the next month and when I receive my next bag, I will post about what's in it and do a mini review of these products!
