Plus the value of the the whole glam bag (all the products) you receive are higher than the $10 or $20 that you would pay. For more information on Ipsy you can  click here. This month's theme is Glamazon. I do have to say that I really like the theme. Mostly because my birthday is in September and I do love being glamorous with my makeup. 1- Living Proof | Perfect Hair Day (PhD) 5-in-1 styling Treatment This styling treatment is meant to smooth, volumize, condition, strengthen and polish to help anyone get a perfect hair day. It has been seen that there is less hair left behind in the brushes. And it keeps hair styles cleaner for longer. The sampl...

For this month's theme it is Rebel Rebel. At this point I'm going to stop stating the obvious in saying that these themes do not match the items because they never do. And I doubt they ever will. 1- Delectable By Cake Beauty:  Everything Balm This multi-purpose balm does it all from lips to fingertips. This balm can moisturize the skin, repair cuticles, seals split ends, brightens dark circles and more. It absorbs quickly on skin and hair without feeling greasy. The sample I have ...

For the month of May the theme is Destination Chic which matches the card and the bag. But it doesn't really match with the month of May. Isn't travel more during June and July? Anyway, the theme never really impacts or matches the items in the bag.  1- Pacifica:  Natural Mineral Coconut Eye Shadow Trio Apparently, this trio was curated for Ipsy which would explain why I can't find this item on Pacifica's website. This trio contains 3 shimmer shades that are named Skinny...

(Boy am I really behind on these first impressions 😬 I promise I'll try to catch up quickly) +ipsy  is a beauty subscription service that for $10 or $20 for us Canadians a month you will receive 4-5 beauty products ranging from sample to full sizes. This is beneficial to those who want to try out different and new beauty products that you otherwise wouldn't necessarily have been able to find in drugstores. Plus the value of the the whole glam bag (all the products) you receive are higher than the $10 or $20 that you would pay. For more information on Ipsy you can  click here. For this month's glam bag the theme is Dreamers. The theme does match with the card that I received with my glam bag but yet again I don't see how the theme correlates to the products I received, unless there isn't supposed to be a connection. 1- Moroccan Oil:  Treatment (The Original) This product is meant to give you silky, shiny and healthy hair. This oil can be used for conditi...

Woohoo I am slowly catching up! Slowly but surely. Now if all of you do not know  Ipsy is a beauty subscription service that for $10 or $20 for us Canadians a month you will receive 4-5 beauty products ranging from sample to full sizes. This is beneficial to those who want to try out different and new beauty products that otherwise wouldn't necessarily have been able to find in drugstores. Plus the value of the products you receive are higher than the $10 or $20 that you would pay. Before going into great detail about the products I received I will talk about the theme for the month of February. The theme for February is Pretty in #IpsyPink. I like the theme I guess it does tie in with the whole Valentine's day holiday but as far as the products themselves? Not so much. I don`t understand why they have themes if the theme itself is not reflected with the contents of the bag. 1- Chella : Lipstick Pencil in Passionate Pink.  The lipstick pencil is meant to be moistu...

Ipsy January Glam Bag 2016 (First Impressions)

OMG I am so far behind! Okay so I know I have been falling behind on these first impressions but I promise that I will catch up. Now if all of you do not know  Ipsy  is a beauty subscription service that for $10 or $20 for us Canadians a month you will receive 4-5 beauty products ranging from sample to full sizes. This is beneficial to those who want to try out different and new beauty products that otherwise wouldn't necessarily have been able to find in drugstores. Plus the value of the products you receive are higher than the $10 or $20 that you would pay. So before I start off with the items I received I'll just tell you of this month's theme. So for the month of January the theme is All Eyes on You which is somewhat cool and it did match with the bag design but I still got a product that had nothing to do with the theme. I find that Ipsy has certain themes that don't match up with the products that they give. Kinda weird but oh well. As long as I get my bag wit...
