July Ipsy Bag (review)



   Before my August bag gets here let's look at what was in my July Ipsy bag.  Ipsy is a monthly subscription bag I receive every month for $10 a month with free shipping.  In your bag you receive 5 products slightly catered to you based on a survey you complete.  The survey questions range from skin tone inquiry, to favorite makeup color for eyes and lips.  There are even questions about skincare.  After you answer these questions they are put into consideration for the next upcoming box.  I just updated mine today and unchecked brushes. I got a different brush everytime.

  My favorite thing about Ipsy is the bags.  I'm not going to lie.  They change every month and sometimes they are so fun.  This month features Gudetama AKA the sleepy egg. He represented the lazy vibes of August.  This bag was so cute even the zipper tag was a speech bubble that said, "meh....".


My August brush was by So Susan. This blender brush will be put to good use if not by me then the the teen.


Rainforest of the Sea deep dive cleansing gel by Tarte.  This is a pretty little purple bottle.  It is a 0.25 fl oz sample or perfect for travel size.  Smells great and is very soothing.  You lather up the gel then rinse of for a cleaner face and makeup removal.


Next up Wonderwand gel kohl liner by Ciate London in black! Liner one side and brush on the other end.  I can't wait to use this!


Ultra lip moisturizing herbal lip balm by Hempz.  The scent wasn't spectacular but, it didn't make my lips smooth and soft.


Lastly was pressed eyeshadow by Mprincess in the shade called biscuit.


So there's my 5 items for the month if July.  August is in the mail already and because you can see what's in the bag already I can see my new brush coming!! Since I updated late I may not have one in September!

If your looking to try out Ipsy for yourself or to give as a gift to your teen feel free to use my link here.

  1. It is always exciting to open the subscription boxes. Every time we have a nice surprise inside the bag. Nice set of items and I would like to try the eye liner. :)

    1. Yes it is a nice surprise. I try to avoid any posts and my email telling me what's in it so I can be surprised when it gets here.

  4. This looks like a pretty nice bag! I actually unsubscribed awhile back since I got tired of my specific requests being ignored; a girl can only use so many black eyeliner pencils!

    1. I completely understand. I may ride this out till the end of the year but would like to switch it with a new one I just don't know which one yet. On the flip side I have a teen that eagerly awaits and begs for makeup so some of it finds a new home.

    1. I never heard of the Hempz line before but did try the balm. The smell reminded me of Carmax but my lips were really soft.

  9. I've never had an Ipsy bag but knew they were one of the most affordable. I did not realize they were shipped for free. I will have to check into this.

    1. Yes, they are one of the cheaper ones which was partly why I chose it. Plus I would reuse the bag before a box as some prodcuts are shipped in.

  10. This is a cool box. My daughter LOVES Gudatama so she'd be all over that bag. She picked out a Gudatama backpack for school.

  11. I love Tarte products so I'm curious to try the cleansing gel. I'd definitely like to try Ipsy at some point but I don't know if they ship to Canada.

  12. I love my blending brush, I think they are one of the most useful brushes to have and I love the look (and sound) of that cleansing spray. Sounds fab and practical for travel like you say.

  22. Another cool items you have! The pouch design looks cute and it feels like he is very tired. Haha! My first pick would be the cleansing gel and the Ultra lip moisturizing herbal lip balm. Nice for a price of $10. I will look forward on your August bag!. - ANOSA

  23. I love suprises but never opted into one of those subscription boxes because I am so picky when it comes to cosmetics and scents. What if I don't like it? Did that ever happen to you that you didn't like a single thing in the box?

    1. I have had products I didn't know what they were as I'm not a huge beauty buff. I do have a teen though who happily waits for handouts. I haven't however had a whole box of stuff I didn't like, thankfully.
