August 2013 Ipsy Bag Reveal

It's that time again!

I've got the August Ipsy Bag to share with you today. If you are completely lost, you need to head on over to Ipsy* and subscribe. Seriously.

Essentially, it's $10 a month and it's a subscription service. You get about 4 products per month and I promise it's worth it!

Here's the goods for this month:


Looks amazing right?

I know.


The first thing I pulled out was this Noya Vanilla All Natural Lip Balm. I included the packaging because I just thought it was cute that it said "Live Divinely"

As for how it performs? It's pretty good. It retails for $3.99 so I probably wouldn't order it online but I'd pick it up in a store.


The next thing I pulled out was this Jojoba Charcoal mask from Michael Todd. I was probably most excited about this because I've heard amazing things about Michael Todd and I've been wanting to try a charcoal mask.

I've tried it once and I really like it! My face definitely felt tighter and clean afterwards.

A full size retails for $18.00 and is 3.4 oz. The sample I got was 1oz so the sample is worth about $5.00 and I can definitely get a few uses out of it. 


The next thing I pulled out was this city color cheek stain. It's in a bright pink color and it blends out pretty nicely so I'm excited to use it!

I'm pretty sure this is a full size and it's worth $2.99. I was shocked at this because the pigmentation was great! I can't wait to see how it wears throughout the day.


The next thing I got was this Pixi lash booster mascara in black. I have not tried it yet but I was excited to see it in my bag because I've always wanted to try Pixi products!
A full size retails for $17.00 and I'm pretty sure that this is not a full size (not sure how much of a sample it is) so I'm just going to say that the value of this was $6.00


Next I got this Pacifica smart shade BB cream. I thought I'd really like this but after I blended it out on my hand, it almost looked shimmery and I find anything with shimmer makes my pores look huge.

A full size is only an ounce and retails for $16.00. This sample size is a third of that so it's worth a little over $5.00


The last thing I got was a bonus item and it's a nail polish from Lime Crime. It's a nice buttery yellow color and one coat was a little streaky, not bad, but it'd definitely need two coats. It retails $8.00 but because it was a bonus item, I'm not including that in my total.

Soooo, the total for my August Ipsy* bag was about $23.00! Not bad for a $10 subscription bag! I haven't been disappointed yet!

Last month, I never got around to doing an Ipsy bag reveal but I got some great items. Here's a pic just so you can see what was in it. It was definitely worth the $10!


Do you get an Ipsy bag? How do you like it?

While my bag is nice, I'm soooo jealous of yours! I didn't get the cheek stain or the lime crime nail polish (which I want!) boo!

I hear such great things about Michael Todd products! The cheek stain looks great, too! And your July bag as well! So many great products!

We're bag twins! I thought this was a pretty good month for Ipsy and I've liked everything I've tried so far. I love your bag from last month, too! Yours was better than mine (I didn't get Benetint), but mine was still pretty awesome.
