Ipsy Glam Bag Haul – August 2017

Ipsy Glam Bag - August 2017

This blog post may contain affiliate links. Learn more.

I am in love with my Ipsy Glam bag this month! I feel like there was a bit more variety in this one than some of the previous bags I’ve received. Ipsy has really expanded my horizons by allowing me to try out new products at a great price. Prior to receiving their monthly subscription I was using the same beauty products I had used for years and I just didn’t feel great about the way my makeup looked. I would go in to Sephora, wander around, and leave defeated and overwhelmed. SO many products to choose from.

With Ipsy I just fill out a little survey about what types of products I like, pay $10 a month, and it comes to my door step in a cute little bag. There have been a few things that I haven’t loved but there is usually at least one product in the bag worth well over $10. Not to mention, I almost always receive a product that I would need to buy monthly anyway like mascara or eyeliner. This works really well for me because I rarely have to shop for makeup now, aside from my foundation.

theBalm Voyage Vol. 2 Eyeshadow/Highlighter in Kuwakaribisha

Ipsy Glam Bag - August 2017
I love this shimmery highlighter. I made a note on my Ipsy profile that I really like highlighters so they’ve sent me a few to try out and this is one of my favorites so far! I put this on my cheeks, brow bone, the bridge of my nose, in the corners of my eyes, and cupids bow. If I’m in a hurry I sweep it on to my eyelids and I don’t bother with my regular eyeshadow. It makes me look AWAKE and alive – a good Momma product for sure!

Hikari Cosmetics Shimmer Bronzer in Flush

Ipsy Glam Bag - August 2017
Admittedly I’ve received a billion blush/bronzers in my various Ipsy bags and I kind of don’t need anymore. But I really like this one and use it daily right now. I highlight with the bronzer and add a little pink to my cheeks in one sweep!

AURORA Pro Cover Up Concealer in Pale Ecru

Ipsy Glam Bag - August 2017
I was so excited to try this! I really needed a new concealer. This matches my skin tone well and adds a bit of extra coverage under my eyes to help with those dark circles.

Juliette Has A Gun – Not a Perfume

Ipsy Glam Bag - August 2017
I recently went into my Ipsy profile and added that I would be interested in receiving fragrances in my bag based on the scents I typically like. I got this cute little “molecular composition” (it’s not a perfume, according to Ipsy!) in my bag and it smells AMAZING. Just a little bit applied to the pulse points goes a long way! Nate loves it. It has hints of Vanilla, Neroli, Sandalwood, and Jasmine Sambac. Nate swears it smells like Las Vegas – haha! There is a certain smell inside all of the casinos/hotels (not cigarettes or BO) and it smells SO good. I kept joking that I wanted to find a “Vegas candle” to take home because I loved it. Well, now I smell like it. Hooray!

MAKE UP FOR EVER EXCESSIVE LASH Arresting Volume Mascara

Ipsy Glam Bag - August 2017
Like I said, I always end up with a mascara or eyeliner and that’s fine with me! Makeup For Ever is a brand that I really like so I was happy to try this one out. I’ve been using this as a first coat along with a fiber mascara and my lashes look AMAZING. I found that the fiber mascara didn’t quite hang on to my lashes well and I wrote it off after mascara flaked into my eyes. I decided to give it another try with the Make Up For Ever mascara as my base coat and the two work perfectly together! I swear it looks like I have lash extensions when I use them together.

Would you ever try out Ipsy? I am seriously hooked now! If you are interested in subscribing because of my review, I would love it if you would pop over through my referral link here! It will help me snag some points so I can get an extra product or two to review!
