Calling All Make-Up Gurus

 

Obsessed with Sephora, Ulta, and any store makeup related? Empty pockets from your love of beauty products? (I can totally relate)

IPSY, is a “glam bag” subscription for just $10 a month. You’ll receive a designed bag, yours to keep, filled with 5 or 6 beauty products or makeup samples. It’s like Christmas once a month every time I see that pink postage bag in my mailbox.

 

After signing up, you take a short quiz, to personalize the products that will specifically benefit you. Whether your hair is too dry, skin too oily, or color of the eyeliner you prefer, the quiz covers it all. IPSY wants you to be receiving products that work for your complexion!

 

 

 

What’s Inside!

Items each month are selected per individual quiz results. This month the bag was created for February, and featured a heart on the front of the envelope. A valentine filled with makeup- what more could a girl want?

 

Inside my personal bag:

I received, a Smashbox primer, Perfect Formula: Pink gel coat, Perfectly Posh: Exfoliating Face wash, a Naked Cosmetics: Eyeshadow pigment, and a VINTAGE by Jessica Liebeskind lip gloss. I have yet to try each product, but the smashbox primer was a 10/10.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ipsy is a unique subscription for those that love trying new beauty products. You get to sample new items that maybe you wouldn’t have bought at the store. Whether you’re a makeup pro or just getting started this is for anyone. To sign up, go to https://www.ipsy.com/ , take the quiz, and wait for that pink bag to be in your mailbox!

I'm Nicole! Nikki, Nic, anything you want to call me really. I'm from south-eastern Pennsylvania and I love life and beauty. Whenever I'm not writing or taking pictures for my blogs or social media accounts, you can find me (hopefully) at the beach surfing, traveling, making new friends and seeing new places. I'm in love with people I've never met and places I've never been to. I am currently a Senior (!!!) at Shippensburg University, majoring in Communications Journalism (focusing in Public Relations) and minoring in Psychology. I would love to work for a PR firm with advertising, event planning and perhaps a chance to travel. Thanks for reading!! - Nicole
