March : Hello, Spring!

Have you heard of Ipsy? I heard about it about a year or so ago and was interested in it, but never signed up for a subscription.  I couldn’t figure out if it was worth the $10 to get random samples of products or if it was better to just go to Sephora once a month and spend $10 on a product I know and want.  Hmm decisions..decisions.

I finally decided in February that I would go ahead and sign up for Ipsy.  My first month was iff.. the verdict was still out. Once I got my April Glam Bag I was in love with Ipsy!  I seriously love getting the bag now every month.  I thought that it would be great to share with you monthly what I got in my glam bags!

I am starting with the first month that I got my bag – March! This bag was my first and not my favorite.  It did have some fun items in it, but since they didn’t know me very well I had more products in it that I wouldn’t use then would use. Oh well!  Luckily, after every bag you can review the products and redo the quiz to get more products that you would like!

Here are the products:

Beau Gachis Eyeshadow Brush

ModelCo Lip Lacquer Lip gloss in Socialite

Aphrodite Skin Care – Replenishing eye cream – bad

IT Cosmetics – Bye Bye Under Eye Anti-Aging Concealer

OFRA Cosmetics – Green Go Eyeliner

1. Beau Gachis Eyeshadow Brush

I wasn’t a huge fan of this brush just because I have a lot of brushes and I really do not use them.  I am more of a use your finger to put make up on!  Eek! I know!  Make-up artists everywhere are cringing!

2.  ModelCo Lip Lacquer Lip gloss in Socialite

This lip gloss I enjoyed a lot.  It smelled great, had an awesome color and went on nicely.

3. Aphrodite Skin Care – Replenishing eye cream

This was my least favorite product.  I didn’t use it yet – so it might be a great product, but I can’t handle the smell!  So.. haven’t tried it yet!

4. IT Cosmetics – Bye Bye Under Eye Anti-Aging Concealer

This is a nice concealer.  I haven’t used it yet to cover any under eye bags. I should try since I know I have some because of a certain little 7 week old! It is a nice consistency.

 5. OFRA Cosmetics – Green Go Eyeliner

I do enjoy this eyeliner! It is so smooth and I love the fact that it is green!  I know it isn’t a common color black – but I have always had fun with different colors and green is one of them!
