Hi everyone~
Sorry I haven’t posted much, I’ve been busy with school. I’m back with Ipsy Glam Bag review, hope you enjoy!
Acure
BrighteningFacial Scrub
Pro: The product is great, it has a natural organic smell, and exfoliates my skin nicely. My skin also doesn’t feel stripped in any way from moisture like the product describes. It is vegan, gluten, paraben, sulfate, silicone, phthalate and synthetic fragrance free, and cruelty free. This is probably my favorite product out of the entire bag, since I’m a big skincare junkie 😉
Con: I did not notice any brightening in my skin, unlike my Vansanti BrightenUp!
Score: 4 out of 5
Pixi by Petra Brow Powder Trio
Pro: The colors are matte as described with buildable color. Does a good job at defining my eyebrows.
Con: I can’t say how much I’ll use this product since I have naturally thick and full brows. Using this made them look like “bushmen eyebrows” as Mia’s grandmother from the Princess Diaries described Mia’s natural eyebrows…
Score: 4 out of 5
First Aid Beauty
Ultra Repair Cream
Pro: It absorbs quick and it is a extremely light moisturizer. It contains colloidal oatmeal, shea butter, soothing eucalyptus oil, and ceramides. It can be used almost anywhere on the body.
Con: It doesn’t moisturize my skin well enough as it boasts, I would suggest the product for normal skin types rather than those with dry skin like myself.
Score: 2 out of 5
NYX Cosmetics
ipsy Eye Shadow Trio
Pro: I love these shades, they go with anything! (Power to the neutrals~) The color is buildable and blendable, but it isn’t matte.
Con: The product once again came shipped with out a protective wrap and this caused a few noticeable dings and scratches to the plastic on the product. As mentioned in my previous glam bag reviews, I really don’t wear eyeshadow so my sister will be taking this one once again, and she loves the free~ish stuff I don’t use 😛
Score: 4.5 out of 5 for the scratches!
tre’StiQue
Mini Matte Lip Crayon
Pro: Goes on soft and smooth with full coverage, and is not goopy at all. Contains vitamin E, monoi taiti butter and antioxidants.
Con: Like with my June Review of their crayon shadow they gave me in the same/similar color…. ehem I HAVE TAN SKIN!!! This product was most definitely not flattering on me at all. I am starting to get upset that they keep sending me unflattering products for my skin tone (even when I did the review survey asking not to send me this brand again), not even my sister can use this stick and she has a much lighter complexion than me.
