September 2014 Ipsy "Street Style" Review


My September 2014 Ipsy bag is here I was beyond excited to see it in my mail I opened it up instantly even though I already knew what was going to be in it. If you don't already know Ipsy is a $10 monthly cosmetic subscription with 4-6 deluxe samples and full sized items. Each month they have a new theme for the bag and this month's theme is Street style. They offer new brands that you haven't heard of as well as some known popular makeup brands.

 
Pacifica 7 Free Nail Color ($9) This was the first time in my Ipsy glam bag it's in the color Red Red Wine which is a beautiful burgundy, perfect for the fall. I was excited to try this so I immediately painted my nails this color . I've been wearing it for a couple of days and it has chipped a little but overall it has been great. I would love to try other colors from the this line in the future.
 
 
Nourish Organic Face Cleanser ($2.33) I wasn't to excited for this because it's nothing special but I did try it. It has great reviews on their website so I decided to give it a shot first of all it smells pretty bad but it gets the job done it does leave the skin dry so lotion is necessary but overall it was a great item to try.
 

Mitchell and Peach Hand Cream ($13.81) This is the item  I was least excited for because really lotion that's a disappointment I would have liked anything else but lotion. It's supposedly a luxury cream but I couldn't tell the difference between this and my normal lotion. It doesn't really have a fragrance it just smells like lotion which I like because I don't like strong smells especially in my lotions. This was the only item in the box I didn't like and I gave it to my mom she liked it she's more into lotions than I am.

 
Smooth Criminal Powder ($12) This is by Be A Bombshell which we've had in plenty of other Ipsy bags. I adore there logo it's so cute. It's been a great brand they offer plenty of cosmetics at an affordable price. This is supposed to be like a translucent powder I believe so but I haven't yet tried it so I can't say if I like it or dislike it.
 
 
Hikari Lipstick ($13) The last item in my Ipsy bag was a lipstick in the shade cabernet which is described as a rich red wine on their website. I have never heard of this brand so it was nice to try out a new brand. The packaging feels very cheaply made and the lipstick was a tad bit drying bot overall the color was great it's darker than shown in the picture and it's perfect for fall. I love lipsticks so I was overly excited to try this and I liked it but I didn't fall in love with it.


This month I think Ipsy was successful they definitely raised their game up from last month which sucked. I'm happy with my bag it had 3 full sized items and 2 deluxe samples which is enough for me to know if I liked the product or not. The theme this month was okay nothing special or exciting but the lipstick and nail polish did fit in which were also my two favorite products. The total value of my Ipsy glam bag for this month was $50.14 which is a great price since I only paid $10. I'm impressed with Ipsy and I can't wait for next month to try out some new products! Go ahead and join here so you won't miss out in great new products.
