Ipsy My Glam Subscription Bag April 2013 Review



Hey Everybody!


So I know that I am totally late on this review but this is my April 2013 Ipsy My Glam Bag! For awhile there, I was starting to get really disappointed with Ipsy but now I feel like their bags just keep getting better and better every month. For those of you who are unfamiliar with Ipsy, it is a monthly makeup subscription that sends you full-size and deluxe-size samples. 


Cost: $10/month

I totally love this bag, pink and white are a great color combination. I kind of wish that the pink had been the bigger part of the bag though because I know that I am going to get this bag so dirty. I saw some other people's blogs about this bag and a few people got different colored bags. I think that the people who got their bag at a later time in April received the other bag because this one didn't meet the Ipsy standards. 


Be a Bombshell Blush in "Sweet Cheeks"
Value: $16

"A medium rosie pink with shimmer"

Wow- this one tube of blush costs way more that the entire bag. I love that it has a shimmer to it too, the blush that I use now has shimmer. I really like that it's a pale color because I see people with really pink blush and all I can think about is how ridiculous they look. This looks like it would match my skin tone perfectly. 


Big Sexy Hair Powder Play
Value: $0.59

"Big Sexy Hair Powder Play Volumizing & Texturizing Powder is a product that instantly liquefies when applied allowing hair to absorb the product and provide full, voluminous hair that everyone wants. Ideal for instant volume on dry hair it is the fastest, easiest way to get big sexy hair in a few seconds! It is weightless, odorless and colorless on any hair color and is great for adding texture."

I'm not a huge fan of Big Sexy Hair products but my hair could use some volume in it! I'm always willing to try a product at least once. 


Mica Beauty Mineral Eye Shadow
Value: $14.95

I love mineral makeup, it usually makes my skin feel much cleaner than other makeup. I really like the color that I got too. It is a nice natural color, perfect for subtle, natural looks. 


Sation Nail Lacquer
Value: $5

I just realized that I have not worn nail polish in a very long time. I am slacking! My nails look so dry and dull now. This color of nail polish looks kind of like a nude/peachy color. I'm not going to lie though, I really do not like that color. If I wanted to wear a nude color I would just not wear any nail polish. It's not my favorite but I am always willing to try something at least once!


Total Value of the Bag: $36.54


I love my Ipsy bags, it gives me the chance to try out new makeup and products that I have never used before. I thought that this was a really good bag and I am pleased with the products that I received. If you aren't sign up for Ipsy already, I would highly recommend it!

Want to sell your old clothes? Poshmark.

If you have a bunch of clothes that you don't wear, then Poshmark is the best thing for you. Poshmark is an app on iPod, iPad and iPhone products. The app lets you post pictures of clothes, shoes, jewelry, etc. that you don't wear anymore. The items can be new with tags, new without tags and lightly worn (just don't try to post your old t-shirt with that pizza stain on it, I can promise you that nobody will buy it). Poshmark is a free application that you can get in the iTunes app store. As of right now, you cannot get the website on your computer. Unless, you have already signed up for an account on an iPad, iPod or iPhone. I signed up for Poshmark about a month and a half ago. Since then, I have sold over $3000 worth of stuff that I don't use anymore. I've sold shoes, jewelry, shirts, pants, sweaters, etc. The app is mostly geared towards women's and girl's/teen's items. Although, I have seen many people post men's and children's items. Th

Diamond Candles vs Prize Candles

Image
This week I'm trying a different type of post! Since I love subscription boxes, that means that I love surprises. So, of course I would love to try out surprise candles! I wanted to see which type of ring candle was better,  Diamond Candle  or  Prize Candle .  I got both candles in 2 different scents,  Prize Candle  was Blue Cypress and  Diamond Candle  was Be Mine (smells like wild berries, amber and roses). Each of the candles cost $25 a piece. Although,  Prize Candle  offers $10 your first purchase and  Diamond Candle  offers free shipping on orders $45 or more.  Inside both companies candles, there is a ring worth $10-$5,000.  First, the shipping. I ordered both candles the same night, within 15 minutes of each other.  Prize Candle  came 2 days before  Diamond Candle  did. My  Prize Candle  came pretty dirty though, I had to clean off the glass container because in had candle wax all over the sides. My  Diamond Candle  came in perfect condition thou

Giveaway!

Hey Everyone! So it was really hard for me to decide which subscription box to give you all a giveaway for. Most of you said that you wanted to enter a drawing for  Glossybox . So I was going to make the prize a 3-month subscription to Glossybox . But then I thought, well what if the winner wants something different? So I am going to leave the prize open-ended for you guys. The Prize: The winner gets to choose what they want. It can be anything that has up to a $60 value (since a 3-month subscription to Glossybox costs around $60). So that means that the winner can get a 3-month subscription to  Julep ,  Glossybox  etc. Or a 6-month subscription to Ipsy , Birchbox , etc. It doesn't even have to be a subscription to a subscription-box! It could be a $60 gift card to Target, Sephora, Gap, Visa, etc. Or even an item(s) that you've been eyeing for months but just haven't gotten around to buying. Seriously, it can ANYTHING that you choose with a value of up to $60! So what
