What did you think about your November Glossybox ?

 

Great Gift Idea's 3

Ipsy 
Cost:$10 per month

For the Make-up lover or the person next to you slobbering over your most recent Ipsy  Subscription. 

 

Seriously, if you have not tried Ipsy at least once, you need to give it a try.

 

The reasons:

1. Makes a great gift for yourself or someone you know who wants to experiment with make-up but does not want to spend a lot each month (only $10 per month)

 

2. The teaser's (aka spoilers... aka sneak peeks) taunt the subscribers every month, creating an undying thirst for more... I love the rush I get from hoping to get one of the revealed items in my box.

 

3. THE COST!!!! If you are looking for a cheap gift for a woman, teen, step-mother, mother-in-law, tween, or even sister... then look no further! At only $10 a month you can gift this subscription and be sure they will love it!

 

If you are worried about not having anything under the tree, than order the first box early (December's if you can get in...there is a waiting list) and put it under the tree with a note letting them know their subscription length! Otherwise, use this as a stocking stuffer and take a picture of an IPSY bag (there are hundreds online) and gift the note with the details of the subscription!

 

If you can't get in until January, then start the NEW Year off right and SPLURGE!

 

Here are some of the items I received in My GLAM Bag for November!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As you can see, Ipsy gives you well beyond your $10 per month worth. I am highly pleased with this purchase, and can't wait to start exploring the different ways to wear my Ipsy colors. One thing I must say, is that Ipsy pays attention to details, unlike many other subscription services. I have a yellow and tan skin tone and the Ipsy staff pay much attention to what may flatter your skin tone. Fantastic service @Ipsy !

 

Please remember the contents within my bag may be different from yours. The result of your answer on your beauty quiz can vary the items within the bag, so a word of advise is "be honest with your answers and think carefully".

Here is how your box will arrive! I am so excited... I cheated and saw some of the other "sneak peeks" to see what's in here! One thing about the sneak peeks though, is that you can watch them but you never know exactly what color, type, or product will be coming your box... mainly do to selections being based on your beauty profile.

Opening Glossybox is like a dream, as one of the better packed boxes Glossybox is one of the Top Requested Boxes out there! I knew it was on my  list, but I just couldn't wait!

Had to do another pic of the soft pink box with Glossybox logo.

Opening your Glossybox is always like receiving a Luxury Gift from Paris! I am getting so excited just looking at the pink ribbon holding the delicate paper around my beauty products!

Inside a theme card awaits "Holiday Romance" (you had me at hello Glossybox )

Within the theme card is a listing of all the contents and a listing of the products "Full Size" value. The reason that Glossybox is highly sought, Glossybox actually sends a lot of  high end "Full size" items in their boxes.

Here are some of the items received and the price points. I like looking up prices myself based on the actual item I received, to cross check the value (although, I wouldn't stop getting this box for the world). 

Here are all my lovelies!!!!! I have a breakdown below.

The Aloe Source Jojoba Radiance Cleaning Polish $5  for  1 oz (Full size is $30 for 6.7 oz)

Never tried this line before...I  just love trying new facial cleansers!

Mastey Full Sized Color Protection Color Protecting Leave-In Oil Treatment $25.00

Full sized... this was revealed on the sneak peek and I must say that I am a definite fan (darn...part of my Mastery spilled in the box, luckily it was only a tad, so I still can use a lot of it)

Vincent Longo Duo Eye Pencil  full size 0.056 oz $26 

Nicka K New York Professional Eyeshadow Brush $5

Emite Full Size Makeup Micronized Eye Shadow in Dams  .05oz  $25

This was the most full size products I have ever received (with the exception of my Total Beauty Collections).

Of course, I have already tried on just about everything in my Glossybox! 

The Vincent Longo Duo Eye Pencil is fantastic, I received the Lime/Forest Duo which is the best thing I found thus far! the liner is high pigmented and the Lime has a slightly metallic hint to it. The Forest color is the darkest green black liner I have ever tried and I love it!

I think this will be my go to liner for now on... Amazing color choices for Brown eyes! 

I haven't tried the eye-shadow brush yet, but every girl needs an ample supply of eye-shadow brushes.

The Emite Eye Shadow in Dams looks black and slightly intimidating (due to it being highly pigmented), but it goes on with a rather light coverage. This is definitely blend-able and I love a good smokey eye!

Did you get your Glossybox yet? What did you think?

Stay tuned on the review of my favorite product out of the November 2013 Glossybox!

Favorite Ipsy November 2013 Subscription Box

Sample Ipsy Glam Bag

After reviewing my contents of my Ipsy November 2013 Subscription Box earlier, I had to narrow down my favorite product from my Ipsy $10 per month subscription.

This is the first time, I ever had a hard time finding just one item to like... well, in this case love. I think i narrowed it down... although, I adored the liners included in the Ipsy November bag, I loved something a tad bit more.

Alright... here we go...

Pixi Beauty Bronzer 

Color: Summertime

My complexion is mixed with yellow tones, so I find it hard to find a Bronzer and for the longest felt as though I didn't need one (how dare I!). 

According to Pixi:

This deluxe bronzing powder gives your complexion the warmth and luminosity of naturally sunkissed skin. Hydrating, silky-smooth & long-wearing, it also protects against free radicals.

I must say, that the formula is very smooth and does give a great sheen on my skin. 

I am able to contour my high cheek bones and give my skin a healthy glow.

This is a product to try!

Ipsy Subscription Box November 2013

Sample Ipsy Glam Bag

Ipsy November 2013 Subscription Box $10 per month

I subscribed for the Glam Bag, which is one of the three looks you can subscribe to through your Beauty Profile Quiz. The picture above is how the Ipsy Subscription Box arrives and the contents within the pink bubble wrap. The contents shipped well and I was impressed none of the contents were damaged.

Here is all the products I received... most of the time I do not pay attention to the many spoilers on the IPSY blog; however, with all the hype I couldn't resist. I always wanted to try some of the products hinted in the spoilers so I peeked (although it did ruin the surprise a bit).

Here is the contents:

Starlooks
Gem Eye Pencil Full Size $14 

Color: Topaz 

Color is a fantastic shade of silver and this is the best metallic pencil I ever used. The color is a mirrored match to the image and that is the same color you get on your skin (regardless of your skin tone).

em michelle phan
waterliner intense color eyeliner Full-size $20

Color: Teal Tease

The color is amazing, but a bit hard to smudge. It even includes the blender and sharpener.

Pixi Beauty Bronzer Full Size $18

Color: Summertime

This bronzer gives a luminous glow and is the first bronzer I have found that worked perfect with my skin tone to give great definition.

 

Be a Bombshell Lip Crayon Full-Size $14

Color: Hot Damn

I love trying shades of red, so this glossy formula lip crayon will be exciting to try.

BH Cosmetics Galaxy Chic Baked Eyeshadow Sample Single Color $.99

Color: Eclipse

Nailtini Straight Up Color Nail Lacquer  Full-Size $13

Color Caviar Cocktail

As you can see, Ipsy gives you well beyond your $10 per month worth. I am highly pleased with this purchase, and can't wait to start exploring the different ways to wear my Ipsy colors. One thing I must say, is that Ipsy pays attention to details, unlike many other subscription services. I have a yellow and tan skin tone and the Ipsy staff pay much attention to what may flatter your skin tone. Fantastic service @Ipsy !
