How many of you go on crazy beauty hauls monthly because you’re bored with your current makeup look? I know I definitely do and to save myself money, I started looking into beauty subscription boxes. They’re monthly bags or boxes filled with beauty products for a set price each month. I’m sure you’ve heard of a few, but have you heard of Ipsy? 

Getting started is easy and I’m so glad I joined. Every month for $10 you will get five personalized beauty products based on your makeup skills and needs all in an adorable makeup bag that is perfect for holding your essentials on the go!

If you aren’t convinced in the beauty of an Ipsy bag yet, let me show you what I received in mine this month! 

First, all of my products came in this gorgeous black canvas makeup bag with an adorable eyelash design! I’ve started using this bag to hold my jewelry and face makeup on the go!

Next, I received the perfect thing for a girls night in, a charcoal face mask! This Global Beauty Care charcoal mask washes off and leaves you with soft, glowing skin. 

We’re all busy girls, and nothing helps our makeup last through our crazy days better than a good primer. In my Ipsy bag, I received a Touch In Sol brand “No Pore-Blem Primer”! This product is light, airy and keeps my makeup on even through the craziest days. 

With winter coming up, chapped lips are going to make their comeback. This Skyn Iceland brand Berry Lip Fix leaves lips smooth and soft. It also adds the perfect amount of shine for a natural beauty look, all while protecting your lips from the cold. 

Matte shimmer eyeshadows that don’t clump up on your eyelids are hard to come by, but this Meech and Mia brand eyeshadow in “Gunmetal” lays matte on the lid and gives the perfect amount of sparkle. 

Ipsy doesn’t only send you makeup and skincare, they will also send you beauty tools! This month I received a “Harley Quinn” themed blending brush. This brush is perfect for blending cream foundations and powder like a dream!

I know that I haven’t been tempted to go on massive beauty hauls now that I know I have one coming to my front door every month. Ipsy has not only saved me money, but it has brought my attention to so many great products that I wouldn’t have known about without my beauty subscription.
