First off I'm going to apologize for posting this so late, my January Ipsy bag has already shipped and I'm patiently waiting for it to come in the mail. Decembers Ipsy was all about their Ipsters, but I received my bag pretty late in the month (like always).I also recently subscribed to another box service thats not makeup related. This box is called LootCrate, if you want to see what I get in those boxes make sure to comment below. One thing that LootCrate does that I wish Ipsy did was they don't allow spoilers. I always know what's in my Ipsy bag because Ipsy posts their bags after shipping has started. LootCrate doesn't they don't ever post what's in their boxes. Do you like the surprise or do you like to know whats coming?Now onto the products!
The first product is probably one of my favorites! I'm not huge into wearing stuff on my lips but I loved this. This is NYX Butter Lip Balm. I got the shade Parfait (BLB01) and I love the scent of it. It has a light fruity smell and the application is smooth. I wore this product just out and about and it stayed on for most of the day. It was the perfect color because it wasn't too bright.
You can purchase this product for $4 here. I love how these are inexpensive and their are different shades. I will probably be purchasing this product in the future.
To purchase this product it would cost you $10 and there are multiple different shades. You can purchase this product here.
The next product is from Swissco and it is a purple eyelash curler. I love the color of this product, it's metallic purple and super cute. I have never really received a product like this from Ipsy so I was pretty excited to be getting this. It works really good and makes my lashes look long.
To purchase this product it would only cost you $5 and you can purchase it here. While looking at this product online I saw that the only other color you could get is a metallic blue color. Ipsy users only received the color purple.
I got mascara to go along with my eye lash curler. The mascara is from Tarte and it's called Lights, Camera, Lashes. We received a travel size which is perfect to take with me in my purse. I have used this a couple of times and I like how it makes my lashes feel. The applicator brush is quite long so it gets onto all of my lashes.
To purchase this product it would cost $20, which you can find here. The packaging on the product is super cute in a royal purple and gold.
The last product is a facial cleanser from BWC. I haven't used this product yet because the last time I used a facial cleanser my face broke out, but I do plan on trying it out here soon. The packaging says it is lightly foaming and soap free. It also states that it is 100% vegan--vegetarian. The scent isn't to strong
We received a 2 fl. oz. sample size. The full size is 8.5 oz. for $11.95 which you can purchase here.
This month I used every product except for the facial cleanser and actually wore it as my daily makeup. I really like how the look turned out and I was glad I could use everything in my bag to do my makeup. All I added that wasn't in the bag was the eyeliner and a primer. Here is the look:
