My September Ipsy bag!

Above is my September Ipsy unboxing video! Hope you enjoy it, cause I really enjoy everything I received. Speaking of things I received here's the list:
Be a Bombshell Smooth Criminal Powder: Retail price for full size, $12.00
Avon Big & Daring Mascara: Reg. price $9.00, on sale for $6.99
Cailyn Art Touch Tinted Lip Gloss: Retail price $19.00
Pacifica Nail Polish: Retail Price $9.00
Mitchell & Peach Hand Cream- Retail Price $17.00 would be a few dollars more in US dollars.

Ok, first of all like I said in the video this is my first Ipsy bag. And I'm very happy with it. The only thing I might not use that much of is the hand cream. It didn't smell very unique at all, kinda reminded me of a medical hand cream. I was thinking that it would smell better. It did adsorb really fast, within seconds the lotion was gone. My hands do feel very smooth, but I think I'd rather buy a better smelling hand cream for the price of this one.
The smooth criminal powder was weird to put on. I tried a brush first, and it was going everywhere all in the air. And I was afraid to inhale it, cause all it is, is silica powder. So I ended up using my fingers to apply it.  It doesn't make my skin feel ashy, or anything, so I can see myself using this on top of my make-up.
The Pacifica nail polish I got was in the color red, red wine. Which is a very pretty fall color. Can't wait to get this on my toes. (I don't really paint my fingernails that often cause I get tired of the chipping and peeling.) It covers really well, you might need two coats, but I say you'll only need one.
The big and daring mascara was another thing I really loved. It picked up all my lashes perfectly, not a lot of clumping at all. I felt like my lashes looked beautiful. =)
My favorite thing in this bag was the Cailyn Lipgloss. It was so pigmented, there was no need to have lipstick under it. I love the way it looks and feels on my lips. And it wasn't sticky at all. =)

So do I recommend Ipsy? Yes I do. Some who have had Ipsy a while, might say otherwise, because they've gotten so many eye liners, or not enough make-up, etc. But if you're looking for a cheap way to get deluxe size samples of makeup to try each month, and you're wanting to expand your comfort zone, I'd go with Ipsy. Now if you're wanting full size products, there's other makeup subscriptions out there, such as Lip Factory and Boxy Charm. I have tried Lip Factory and I'm subscribed to it now. Boxy Charm I haven't tried, but I think the difference is that with Lip factory you create your beauty profile, and they select products that will go with your skin tone, and such, Boxy Charm I don't think has anything like that. Lip Factory is $22/mth and you get 5-7 full size makeup products, Boxy Charm is $21/mth and you get up to 5, I think.I will be posting my review of my first Lip Factory box also. =)
