Ipsy Bag - December 2012

I simply cannot see myself ever cancelling my Ipsy subscription! For $10, this bag is totally worth it and it is the only box, kit or bag that I get that has mostly cosmetics! I just love it! December was another great month and rather than carry on about how fantastic it was, I will just show you what products I received! ENJOY!!!



If NYX is in the bag...you know I'm happy! Most of you should know by now that I am a NYX junkie, but crazy enough, I have never tried their loose eyeshadow. A sin...I know! I have read other reviews of some who were not pleased with the color they got in their bag, but I couldn't be happier with mine! I got the shade Pearl, a light pink/beige shade that acts as a gorgeous highlight! Not only will it work on the eyes, but on the cheeks and/or lips as well! It is soft, long lasting and I just love it!

Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Pencil - Zero




 Sorry it is so blurry :/

My go-to pencils are always Urban Decay! They have the best pencils and it has become a cult classic overtime. What a treat to get another pencil, especially in one of my favorites...Zero! Urban Decay pencils are extremely creamy, long lasting and even waterproof!

No...papier is not a typo! I have never seen such a product before. I will admit, I was a bit leary about it at first, but the shimmer this product provides is so gorgeous. All you have to do is take a sheet and rub it over the desired area and BAM, you have a lovely glow. The downside...it obviously gets all over your fingers.

I have certainly used my share of primers. I like trying new ones all the time in hopes that I find ones that are even better than my previous choice. This primer isn't all that bad. It is oil-free and lightweight and I really do like it. I just find it is no different than any other primer that I have used. I like it, I use it, but it's not one of my favorites.

Red lip gloss, in December, just in time for the holidays...perfection! Some boxes and kits that I receive this time of the year have Spring and Summer colors, and honestly, it just pisses me off. Why would I use a bright shade this time of year? No, I am not one to live by the color rules of the world, but some shades are just not worth trying during a specific time of year.  Moving on...I was thrilled with this shade! I just love red and love wearing it any chance I get! This gloss is super shiny, creamy and not all that sticky. I feel that it moisturizes my lips and I just love it. I may have to find some more shades!

This was a nice little perk to this bag! However, I have mentioned before that I am not really into BB Creams. I never saw the hype and they are just not my thing. BUT, this one was pretty good! I am an Urban Decay fan, so I had no doubt in my mind that I wasn't going to like it. I didn't have enough in my sample to see a difference in my skin, but I did like how it felt and the effect it had. I usually steer clear of BB Creams, but I may have to purchase this product for the Summertime!

So there you go again...another successful month in Ipsy world! It just keeps getting better and better, therefore I am still remaining a loyal customer!

Have you tried Ipsy?
If so, what do you think? If not, interested?
Do you get a monthly beauty box, kit or bag subscriptions

  6. Thank you very much Miss Niki for sharing this with us!^^
    The ipsy bag seems to be very good! I really like the lip gloss, is such a pretty color!x3
    And about BB Cream, no offense, but I would not call real BB creams at the westerns BB Creams because most are just moisturizers with color and sometimes with SPF.
    Hopefully someday you can try some Korean BB Cream!^^
    I hope you have a nice day!

  7. would love to be able to get a monthly box like this one!! the products inside all look amazing.. BB creams are def for summer when you don't want anything heavy - though I'm also yet to believe they actually 'do' anything! I've recently signed up to the Lust Have It box here in Australia.. haven't recieved my first one yet but am so looking forward to it!! :)

  9. This post makes me want to start getting Ipsy bags! You got a lot of nice goodies in there and some pretty good sizes too. I'd like to try the BB cream, but I hear it only comes in one shade & costs $34!! That's a LOT for a BB cream IMO

      But yeah...a bag like this is quite tempting to non-subscribers :)
