Ipsy Reveals Are Up for the January 2017 Glam Bag!

I’m super excited for this bag! I’m getting a lot of stuff I haven’t used before.

Pretty Woman Nail Polish-I love nail polish, I’m hoping for the grey because I don’t have grey in my collection but I would probably use pink more often… so win either way.

Trust Fund Beauty Lip Gloss-Lip gloss is probably my favorite thing to get, I’ll be happy with either color.

The Vintage Cosmetic Company Rose Gold Tweezers- I need new tweezers and literally had these (maybe not exact brand by Rose Gold colored Tweezers) in my cart at target and put them back because they were kind of expensive for tweezers, So happy for these!

Smashbox Cosmetics Camera Ready BB Cream-I’m a big fan of YouTube Beauty Guru’s and I always hear them rave about Smashbox cosmetics but I haven’t gotten myself to spend money on it without trying it. I’m am beyond happy to give this a try! I prefer BB creams over foundation anyway but I feel like after the craze was over a lot of companies cut back the quality. Maybe I’ll find a new favorite here.

Jelly Pong Pong Coffee + Coconut Lip Scrub-The only lip scrub I have used is the ELF ones and I was super jealous about everyone’s lip scrubs from the BoxyCharm last month. and who doesn’t love coffee and coconut…???

I usual wait and let my bag be a surprise and I’m normally dying of curiosity by the time it arrives. I decided to peak this month and now I’m dying to try everything right now! haha. Can’t wait!

Also If it helps anyone, I normally give pretty detailed reviews on each item in my Ipsy bag and each bag has been better and better. Maybe for people who are not happy with their bag, leave more detailed comments rather than “I hate nail polish” with one star… just a guess though.

Hmm, haven’t seen anyone who got exactly what I got this month. I got:

*Pacifica BLUSHIOUS in Wildrose – I actually can’t wait to try this, it looks really beautiful

*SLMissGlam Blend Brush L34 – Could always use more blending brushes!

*Clinique Take the Day Off Makeup Remover – Can’t wait to try this either, I always remove my makeup and this could come in handy

*Briogeo Rosarco Blow Dry Perfection – I have gotten this before from Boxy I think, which weighed at FOUR ounces, this is .75 ounces. Interesting… beside that point, I have not used the other one ONCE, so sadly I will not be using!

And lastly…
*TheBalm Cosmetics Bahama Mama – Sadly, I do not use bronzer or contour, I just don’t think it looks right on me. I wish I could have gotten blush from theBalm, but ah oh well.

Overall, this is probably the best bag I’ve gotten in the 3-4 months that I have been subscribed.

I’m getting:
-Crown C405 Countour/Blush Brush-I’m just getting in to contouring and have been checking out brushes so I’m super excited for this!
-Temptu Smooth & Matte Primer-Love primers and smooth and matte is exactly what I need with my oily/combo skin so I’m super excited to try this too!
-Manna Kadar Fantasy 3-in-1 eyeshadow-not sure what 3-in-one means and this looks a little too glittery for me but I do love trying new eyeshadows and the color looks pretty so I’m ok with this.
-Jelly Pong Pong Coffee & Coconut Lip Scrub- I like lip scrubs but I hate coffee and coconut both…will have to reserve my opinion on this until I see if it smells or tastes like either.
-IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Undereye Concealer-I’ve been dying to try Bye Bye Pores but I’m excited to try this as well since I still haven’t found my ride or die under eye concealer (although I’m liking the LA Girls one…just haven’t found my perfect shade yet), maybe this is it.

After a couple of so so glam bags recently, I decided to go in and tweak my profile quiz a little. I was getting products that I felt were more for dry skin than my combo/oily skin so I changed it to oily and I tweaked a few of my skin concerns and I feel like it helped! I’m really excited about most of items and that’s a win in my book!

I’m happy again with my bag!
I’m getting-
Coloured Raine Cosmetics Matte Lip Paint in Mars
Model Co Blush in Peach Bellini
Sally Box Lover recipe Face masks
Pretty Women Nail Polish hping in gray not pink
Smashbox Camera Ready bb Cream

I’m getting:

— Briogeo Rosarco Blow Dry Perfection Heat Protectant Crème (ugh)
— Trust Fund Beauty Lip Gloss in Method to the Madness
— The Vintage Cosmetic Company Rose Gold Tweezers
— Jelly Pong Pong Coffee + Coconut Lip Scrub
— IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Illumination Anti-Aging Concealer

I really wanted skincare and the lip balm, but I don’t think this month is too bad.

I am happy with this months bag for the most part, and haven’t seen any bag twins so:

Sally’s Box Loverecipe AcaiBerry Mask & Loverecipe Aloe Mask
ModelCo BLUSH Cheek Powder in Peach Bellini
TEMPTU Base Smooth & Matte Primer
Manna Kadar Cosmetics Fantasy 3-in-1 Eyeshadow
theBalm Cosmetics Bahama Mama Bronzer

I use masks, I like blushes, and am looking for a new primer. The manna kadar eyeshadow looks interesting too. Not too excited about the bronzer because they are SUCH tiny samples from theBalm. Overall good enough to stay subscribed! (:

I am getting

Trust Fund Beauty Lip Gloss
Manna Kadar Blush
Pur~lisse Mud Mask
theBalm Bronzer
Ciate Geology Top Coat

Also I redeemed points for a Tokyo Plums em eyeshadow palette AND a Lime Crime Metallic Liquid Lipstick. So I’m excited for January’s glam bag!

I’m so excited for my first bag! I got:

– mannakadar blush
– Rimmel lip balm
– theBalm Bahama mama bronzer
– naked cosmetics pigment

Hi Everyone,

I’m not finding the greatest success with Ipsy’s customer service like some of you are reporting. I’ve emailed twice in the last couple of weeks, and I haven’t even received a response, other than the auto-responder. ?? 🙁 I tried to see if I could opt-in on an item request for January and then for February’s bag. No response at all. I’ve subscribed to Ipsy for four+ years.

Here’s my bag:

Manna Kadar Cosmetics Paradise Blush
Pur-lisse Blue Lotus Seed 5-in-one mud mask
theBalm Cosmetics Bahama Mama
Naked Cosmetics Mica Pigment in Desert Sunset #02
Ciate London Gelology Top Coat

I’m not enthusiastic about it. Seems like I only get a good item in the bag every few months. My very favorite bag ever was about 3 years ago, a summer bag with awesome colors in it that I loved. I keep the sub because of the price. I guess I’m bummed because everyone else is getting responses from Ipsy’s customer service and I’m getting nothing :0

My bag:

-The Vintage Cosmetic Company Rose Gold Tweezers
-Clinique Take The Day Off™ Makeup Remover For Lids, Lashes & Lips
-Smashbox Cosmetics Camera Ready BB Cream SPF 35 in Light or Light Medium
-Rimmel London Lip Conditioning Balm by Kate Moss
-IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Illumination™ Anti-Aging Concealer

I’ll use all of these, so I’m not mad.

Well, I’ve been subbing to Ipsy since August of last year, and I am overall very happy with them! I have been recommending them to all of my girl-friends, because I love what you get for the price!

Here is what my January bag is looking like (i looked through all of the posts, and have not seen a bag twin yet, so let me know if i have a bag twin out there!)

– Trust Fund Beauty Lip Gloss (either color would be fine, i’m excited about this one!)

– Real Chemistry Luminous 3 Minute Peel (I received a 3-minute peel in my Winter FabFitFun box, which I’m sure many others of you also received, so I’m feeling meh about this one but will give it a shot).

-Pacifica Blushious in Wild Rose (looking forward to trying it, though I still have theBalm cosmetics blush in Cabana Boy I received a couple months back and haven’t gotten a chance to use it yet)

-theBalm Cosmetics bronzer in Bahama Mama (I was excited to receive a bronzer since I currently do not have one, however, this is the second bronzer/blush I have received from theBalm Cosmetics and something about the incredibly small sample size bugs me. Like am I going to have to twirl my brush in it 3 times to get full coverage on the blush brush??)

-Ciate London Gelology Topcoat (I’m pretty excited to try this. I love Ciate products, and was very happy with the consistency of their nailpolish I received in my bag a couple months ago! I usually use Seche Vite for topcoat, but am looking forward to give this one a try!)

Overall I’m pretty happy with my January bag. I would have LOVED to get the rose gold tweezers, the smashbox BB cream, The IT cosmetics undereye illuminator, or the SLMissGlam blender brush).

My bag :

*Briogeo
Rosarco™ Blow Dry Perfection Heat Protectant Crème
*Smashbox Cosmetics
Camera Ready BB Cream SPF 35
*SLMissGlam
Blend Beauty Brush L34
*Lasting Smiles
Lip Balm in Passionfruit Mango
*Naked Cosmetics
Mica Pigment in Desert Sunset #02

I got a couple of repeats this month but they’re not bad repeats. I’m looking most forward to the Pacifica Blush! The bag is nice: pretty, non-descript, so shouldn’t be too many complaints about it.

I’m getting:

Pacifica
BLUSHIOUS in Wildrose
theBalm Cosmetics
Bahama Mama (repeat)
Jelly Pong Pong
Coffee + Coconut Lip Scrub (nice for dry winter lips)
Naked Cosmetics
Mica Pigment in Desert Sunset #02 (repeat)
Ciaté London
GELOLOGY Top Coat (meh, I never paint my own nails but they RARELY send me nail stuff, so can’t complain too much)

I’m excited that my request for January 2017 worked! I am obsessed with the blue color of this bag-makes me think of Cinderella 🙂

*Manna Kadar Cosmetics Paradise Blush (one of my favorite eyeshadows is Manna Kadar so I have high hopes for this blush)
*pur~lisse Blue Lotus Seed 5-in-1 mud mask + exfoliant (exciting)
*TEMPTU Base Smooth & Matte Primer (might swap this, I’m not a fan of primers but I am a fan of smooth matte)
*theBalm Cosmetics Bahama Mama Bronzer (I will probably swap this. I have a lot of bronzers and I have the Bahama Mama blush that is just ok on me).
*IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Illuminaton Anti-Aging Concealer (My request worked! I am very excited for this!)

Any bag twins out there? 🙂

Did not see my combo listed so:

Pretty Woman nail polish
Crown Contour Blush Brush
Pur-Lisse Blue Lotus

Actually pretty pleased!

I am content with my nag. Not thrilled, not unhappy. I got:

Smash box bb cream – what I wanted!
Naked Cosmetics pigment in Desert Sunset #02
SLMissGlam brush
Clinique makeup remover – super boring, have a ton, but will get used.
Rimmel London lip balm – NOT excited about this in any way… booo

😆Pacifica BLUSHIOUS in Wildrose (love blush and this color looks beautiful!)

😆Ciaté London GELOLOGY Top Coat (needed a new top coat & this sounds amazing! Hopefully it works as good as it claims.)

Crown Brush C405 contour blush brush (yay!)

Another great bag for me! I’m getting..

Trust Fund Lip Gloss in Madness or Blame

SLMissGlam brush (Yay these brushes are super cute)

Real Chemistry 3 minute peel (meh)

Temptu matter primer

Pacifica blush in Wildrose (this is the item I picked for my January bag)

I’m getting

Pink Peony Parfum- This sounds really nice, I like getting fragrance, if I don’t like one I just chuck it.

SLMissGlam Brush L34 I got a brush from this brand before a few months ago it had little gems on the ferrule Its one of my go to’s right now for days where I keep my shadow to one or two colors. so jazzed to get another from this brand.

ModelCo Blush in Peach Bellini I see a lot of people being bummed about getting it, I got another shade ( Cosmopolitan) a few months ago ( might have been last year I just added it to my regular rotation) and like it so I’m happy to get another shade, especially one that’s lighter colored so it is better for “natural” days.

F.U.N Lacquer in TGIF I saw a lot of girls raving about this in the spoilers posts, but haven’t seen anyone else actually getting it, Looks like a fun color, I’m excited to give it a try.

Manna Kadar Fantasy 3-in-1 Eyeshadow Only thing I’m kind of unsure about in my bag this month, I have a LOT of rose gold toned shadows but enjoy trying new formulas, and like colors like this outside of a palette for quick apply days.

All in all I am happy with my bag, wish I had gotten the IT Concealer, but maybe my turn is coming if not I’ll probably break down and order it somewhere else. As I like the original and would like to try this one. Nothing seems like a dud right out the gate for me this month.
