Ipsy Glam Bag {{March 2014}}

Back in February I decided to sign up for a subscription service and I decided to go with Ipsy since their products seemed to fit me. Every month you get 4 to 5 products in these cute makeup bags for a great price of only $10. My first bag was March and I was super excited to receive it. The bag this
month was designed by an artist in San Francisco and the theme of this bag was Destination Beauty. I am pretty excited to see what I get next month also.
I figured every month when I receive my glam bag I would post what was inside and how I liked the products. Also if you want to sign up for yourself use this code and you can either save some money or earn some points: http://www.ipsy.com/r/790b

Did I mention that not everyone gets the same bag?


So the first product that I pulled out of my glam bag was this primer from Pixi. There was a bit of shimmer to my face after I applied it but it wasn't terrible. According to PixiBeauty.com this is a new product and it sells for $9.00.









The next product is a NYX product. It is the Love in Rio palette. Mine came in the shade called The Brazilian which is three brownish colors. I've always heard really good things about NYX but was a little disappointed at how its not very pigmented this palette was and it took quite a bit of adding more to get it to show up. 
This product sells for $6.00 and comes in a variety of shades. I love the color combos that they have and these colors work perfect with my skin tone.
I'm going to rate this product a 6/10 because I think it should be more pigmented. I think I will put this in my purse and carry it with me for times when I need to touch up.

Next up is a liquid eyeliner from Chella. It is in the shade Indigo Blue. Something I like about Ipsy is that it's giving me products that I wouldn't go purchase for myself at the store because I wouldn't ever step out of my comfort zone to buy blue eyeliner.
First off I love the tip on this eyeliner, makes it so much easier to apply. The only thing is that it sorta ran a bit as you can see in the second photo. I haven't worn this product out and about but I have tried it. The blue actually doesn't really stand out bold like I thought it would.
This eyeliner costs $24.00 on the Chella website, thats double the cost of my glam bag!


 Lastly was a travel size lipstick from bareMinerals Marvelous Moxie in the shade Get Ready. I'm not a big lipstick person but I actually wore this and wore it out and about. It gave my lips just a little bit of color but nothing too intense. It also stayed on for quite awhile which impressed me.
The cost for this lipstick in full size is $18.00

 That is all for the March bag and I can't wait to see what comes in my April bag! I loved all the products that I got, I sort of wish I would have gotten the OPI nail polish that some people received.
