I have been utilizing this monthly subscription service (only $10!) for about 18 months now and I really love my monthly picks. I did have to go through a couple rough combinations at first but after I started rating products on their website, their picks for me have been on point.

I would label my makeup skills up to receiving these products as basic “7th grade chic” status. I have been using the exact same powder, foundation, eyeshadow and mascara for years and year.  It was definitely time to mature and grow and testing products and colors out through this service has given me the opportunities to do so at a minimal cost. I also appreciate the amount of organic and chemical-free products they mix in every once in a while.

My IPSY glam bag this month: 
First, cute little “diddy” bags each month. Win.   Oh my, this little treat for my lips is my new favorite!!! I also LOVE that for each lip balm purchased, some of the proceeds help fund cleft palette surgeries for children. I will definitely be purchasing more of this product. Also in picture, a severe need for a mani. Wow.
One part of this service that I like is trying new products AND new colors on my face that I might not try when paying full price at the store. I’m quite excited about a date night makeup situation that would call for gold eyeliner!For some reason, I am really picky and annoyed about mascara. Years into wearing makeup and I still can’t find one that I love on my lashes and doesn’t clump (leave your best suggestions here pretty please???). Although this mascara isn’t great, I have gotten a full or mini tube in almost every glam bag and appreciate getting to test different types out along the way!
