As you can see, the theme is "on the wild side" and the bag is a pretty leopard print with a neon zipper and Ipsy tag. I'm not into animal prints but I actually really like this bag!
Here's whats inside...
I don't know if you noticed, but these are all full sized. One of the major drawbacks for a lot of these beauty bag subscriptions is that you get an overload of samples. I have to be honest, I really hate samples. They usually go straight into the trash. I don't have time to sort through a million, which is why it took me so long to subscribe to any bag/box at all.
When I started noticing that Ipsy was doing more and more full sized items, it was time to take the plunge.
But are these items worth the $10? Let's see.
The first thing I got was this gel eye liner from Cailyn in the color Iron. It's a pretty, slightly sparkly grey color which I love. The brush that it comes with is also pretty nice.
From what I can tell, the pigmentation is great.
This eyeliner retails for $21.00
The next item is probably what I was most excited about. It's the Chella Ivory Lace Brown Highlighter pencil.
The pigmentation on this is amazing and it's not too white, which I find can be too highlighting.
This retails for $18.00
This next item is my least favorite. It's the J.Cat Sparkling Cream Palette. It's basically just some different colored glitter to put on top of eyeshadow.
I don't really wear glitter, so it's kind of worthless to me but still fun!
It retails for $4.49.
Another item in this month's bag is this Nyx Mosaic Powder blush in Peachy. To me, it looks more like a bronzer but I haven't actually tried it yet.
I do like Nyx products so I'm sure I'll like this!
It retails for about $5.00
The last thing is this StarLooks lip pencil in Bare. It actually comes out more brown to me, which I won't wear on my lips. I could possibly use it as eye liner though so it's not a total waste. The pigmentation it is amazing though!
I do wish they had sent a different color.
It retails for $12.00

I could get down with a $10 bag/box. A lot of the other ones are $25 or $30 or even more and I just can't do that. Looks like they have some good stuff, I love that first eyeliner.
I've been getting Ipsy since December 2012 and I love it. The last 2 months were disappointing to me, but June pulled through.
I wish they would have switched our bags! I would have used all those colors, I am more of a brown / neutral girl. I got pinks and bright reds. Too bad they don't let us pick a color scheme.
Thanks for sharing this! I really can't spare the extra $30/month that most beauty services charge, but I can handle $10.
I love seeing what people get in their box/bags. I can't afford anything at the moment so I live through ya'lls. I thought about getting Ipsy bags before. Although I don't wear makeup 24/7, it would give me the chance to try.
I really need to try this, I had birchbox forever and wasn't a fan but I feel like Ipsy's products are a little more of a "step up"
Actually don't put that palette over your eyeshadow, according to Ipsy's product page on it it's not safe for the eyes. Found that out when I was trying to get the company information for my reveal post.
Im signing up! So excited!

I love the variety of product in the Ipsy bags! They are the ones I'm lusting after the most out of all the subscription beauty bag lines. Love NYX too.
In my Ipsy bag I got the mosaic blush and the grey eyeliner too. I love them! Not so much love for the glitter palette though.
I love the highlighter! Wish i signed up for ipsy this month.
Wow all that for $10?! I would love to try this out! How do you go about signing up? Thanks elaineb1@ymail.com
This was the first Ipsy bag that I've received. Really loved the highlighter pencil, not so sure what to do with the glitter. xx
