Ipsy Glam Bag November 2015 (First Impression)

Hey everyone! So here I am with my first impression of the November glam bag that I am running behind on. So Ipsy is a beauty subscription service that for $10 a month or for us Canadians $14.95 American you can receive 4-5 beauty products that range from samples to full sized products. If you guys want to check it out you can click here. Plus it is a great way to discover new products and companies.

So this month's theme is beauty blast. I don't really know what that means but I can only assume that it relates to the galaxy/space. I'm not really feeling this theme but the colors and aura connected to it is pretty cool.


Ipsy November Glam Bag
Crown Brush (C 412 Deluxe Pointed Crease Brush):
Super stoked that I got this brush in this month's bag. I love crease/blending brushes so the fact that I got one makes me really happy. This brush retails for $12.38 but Crown Brush always have things on sale. The bristles feel really soft but the first time I saw the brish my first thought was that it felt and looked cheap. No matter what I'll still give it a try and see how it works. 

Cool Way Strong Hold Spray:
I have a sample size of the spray. The full size contains 3.3 oz and is priced at $19.95. However, the sample I have contains 0.5 oz and is worth $3.00. This spray is meant to give volume to your hair while also having a long-lasting hold. It fights against humidity. You can either spray it on wet or dry hair and then you style your hair. I've never heard of Cool way before but I am happy in trying out their product. 

INSPR Beauty (in Carnival):
I could not for the life of me find this eye shadow on their website. The eye shadow contains the same amount of product but the packaging is completely different. I think they sell this color in their regular packaging but they don't say the names of the shadows. I just find it really weird and confusing. I'm assuming that the eye shadow that I have is worth $13. I love the color! It's a mix between bronze and copper. This is definitely an eye shadow that would compliment my hazel eyes. Below is a swatch of the shadow and I'm realizing that it does not do justice to how it really looks. Trust me guys, this color is bombtastic! 
INSPR (in Carnival)
Smashbox Full Exposure Mascara (in Jet Black):
I received the sample size of this mascara. The full sized one is worth $22 with 0.38 oz while mine contains 0.14 oz and is worth $8.20. This mascara is supposed to give your lashes a full and glossy look. While also being clump, flake and smudge free. I love receiving small mascaras because when do we ever really finish a full sized mascara before it expires? Or in some cases dries out too quickly? Definitely not me!

Jelly Pong Pong Liquid Gossamer (Liquid Luminizer): 
I received the full sized luminizer!!!! :D This is a liquid luminizer or to put it in simple words a liquid highlighter. Guys I have been obsessed with highlighters!!! So the fact that I got this is faith! I am so excited in trying it out since it is my first liquid highlighter. This highlighter contains 0.27 oz of product and is worth $22.95. I find it small to be a full sized product but yet even with how small it is it will take quite a while for me to finish it. You can use this to highlight the highest points of your face or you can mix it in with your foundation to have a nice radiant face. But I do need you to look below at the swatch of this highlighter! AWE I am overwhelmed with the beauty of this highlight.

November Glam Bag:
I love the bag! Especially, that it resembles the galaxy. It does feel a bit cheap ad the stitching is coming undone but I still love the look of it. This is bag is worth $5. (I'm guesstimating)

Overall First Impression:
This whole bag full of products is worth $64.43! Wow super happy about that. I am happy with what I received. LOL what am I saying? I am over the moon that is how happy I am with this bag!

I hoped you guys enjoyed this first impression and don't forget to follow my blog! Love y'all have a good day or evening :D

Amanda

Neutrogena: Healthy Skin Instant Tone Corrector (Review)

Image
***Not Cruelty Free 👎*** This silky, lightweight formula is meant to smooth the skin and correct complexion in seconds. This formula contains essential soy which is "proven" to correct and brighten skin tone while also reducing the look of dark spots, pores and wrinkles. It also helps make-up to be applied smoothly and last longer. The SPF in the tone corrector helps the skin looking healthy. It can be worn alone or with makeup. It contains SPF 15 and is for all skin types. This product costs around $20 but I got it for a $1! You can checkout Neutrogena's website  here.   Essentially, this is a tone corrector and it can be used as a primer after moisturizer. When I read the description on the box I was praying to God that this would work because as I've previously stated in the past few blog posts I've written; this summer my skin has been freaking out with pimples and in consequence I have dark spots all over my chin area where I previously had pimples...

True Blood: Season 1 Episode 6 Cold Ground (Episode Review)

Image
((((((This review contains spoilers.)))))) Adele Stackhouse is dead and of course Sookie is in shock but damn everyone keeps on bugging her. Can everyone just let the poor girl grieve? Of course Sam and Bill have to seize each other up. My question is why does Bill think he knows Sookie so well? Dude, you've known her maybe a week tops. Or has he known her for a week as he would like everyone to believe? I don't understand how Sookie was able to clean up the kitchen after her grandmother was murdered in it. It's a shame that Adele died she was such a gentle spirit.  Jason is just slowly deteriorating beyond belief. Addicted to vampire blood, suspected of several murders and now hitting his own sister. Thank God for Tara and Lafayette because they are amazing friends. They are funny and caring I wish they were my friends.  Sookie yelling and cursing at everyone during the funeral just made me laugh so much. I would react the same way if not worse had I been abl...

Ouija: Origin Of Evil (Movie Review)

Image
(((((Please be warned there are spoilers))))) Movie Summary: In 1960's California, a fake medium's daughter tries to communicate with her late father through a Ouija board, but unleashes a demon instead. This movie is the prequel of the movie Ouija which I have already reviewed. The review for the movie Ouija is here. In the movie we are introduced to the Zander family. The widowed mother Alice and her two daughters Paulina and Doris. Due to losing her husband, Alice becomes the sole provider for her family and to earn some sort of income she performs séances to help her clients get closure from their passed loved ones. She makes money off of scamming people and she uses both her daughters to do it. Personally, I think it's really fucked up to exploit someone's pain and grief to make a few quick bucks. But using her own logic, through deceit she is able to provide some sort of comfort and closure. It does not take too long for Alice to incorporate the po...
