What's Inside The Bag
Eco-Chic Makeup Bag - Retail Value $12
This month's design reminds me of the Weeds theme song "Little boxes on the hillside, little boxes made of ticky-tacky..." It is very cute. These bags have a canvas exterior with a shiny interior, which is easy to wipe clean.
Jelly Pong Pong Cosmetics - Nebula Petite in "Probe" - Retail Value $18
A single eyeshadow has to be special for me to reach for it. It is much easier to grab a palette that has every finish I need for a look, but this formula and metallic hue is a head-turner. "Probe" is a brown shimmer that is intensely pigmented and gorgeous for fall.
Jelly Pong Pong Cosmetics - Lighten Up - Retail Value $20.95
This is an extremely useful stick. I love a natural highlight without any shimmer, and this adds the perfect subtle lightness to my complexion. It is great in the waterline, under the eye, in the inner corner of your eye, or for subtle contouring down the nose. It is smooth upon application and blends beautifully.
So Susan Cosmetics - Lip Dew in "Berry Burst" - Retail Value $19
Tinted balm is 100% my jam. I love wearing a moisturizing and glossy lip, and this formula is phenomenal. It smells a little like candy, and I can't complain about the taste, either. This color is giving vampy, autumnal goddess, and I love it.
Trifle Cosmetics - Red Velvet Palette - Retail Value $22
Trifle Cosmetics palettes are always fun to play with. I was very thrown off by the packaging at first, because I really don't think it matches the beautiful depth of color found inside. The pink and purple hues have a satin, shimmer finish that creates gorgeous dimension on the lids.
BONUS ITEM : Peony Cosmetics - Chameleon Powder Pigment in "White Lie" - Retail Value $18
Like all of the other Chameleon pigments, this is a stunner. The powder so fine and a little bit goes a long way. This would look stunning as an intense all-over-the-lid look.
Swatched Above: So Susan Lip Dew, Peony Cosmetics Chameleon Powder, Jelly Pong Pong Nebula Eyeshadow, Jelly Pong Pong Lighten Up, Trifle Cosmetics Red Velvet palette
Verdict
October's So Susan Color Curate has me totally set for fall color. I loved the emphasis on warm reds this month; this bag gave an altogether cozy autumnal vibe, which I am totally ready for. October's bag's retail value comes to $109.95; you're getting five full-sized products and a bag for $20.95, a great deal.
