Ipsy bag is here!
So I was originally going to cancel my Ipsy before this but it slipped my mind, so here's the bag! This months is titled 19 Reasons. Lets get to it.
This month I received the healthysexyhair leave in conditioner, the Norish Organic Face Lotion, Mice Beauty Tinted Lip Balm, Elizabeth Mott Smooth Eyeshadow in Penny, and the Faithful Aromatherapy Tahitian Monoi Anti Aging Sugar Scrub.

Because my hair is braided I don't have much use for this right now so I can't give an honest opinion on it.
Now I was a little weary, and still am, about this. The last Norish Organic product I received was also a lotion. The sample was ok, but when I bought the fullsize it was rather drying to the skin. I did put this on my face though and it felt ok. It wasn't great, it wasn't horrible, just ok.
Because I don't have pictures of me using either, here's my little sister playing with the containers.

Next is the MicaBeauty Tinted Lip Balm. The color payoff was actually really good, but it was a bit drying on my lips. I may give it a shot later with a primer on under it or another lip balm, which just seems...redundant actually. I think with the right color lip liner I can make this work though. Dunno how, but I think I can!
The Elizabeth Mott Smooth eyeshadow in the shade Penny. It wasn't as smooth as my UD pencils but it didn't make my eyes water because it was super dry and tugging on them either. Over all it's ok. I think I'll try to use it in a look this week to see how I like it as a base.
Last but not least is the sugar scrub. I bought the Fresh Facial Polish earlier this month (and that reminds me I need to do a post on my skincare mini-haul) which is absolutely amazing. This in comparison, is ok. I do use it, and my face does feel nice afterwords, but it's not as 'OMG I LOVE IT' as my other scrub. >.> If I hadn't bought my Fresh scrub I would probably like this a lot more to be honest.
I forgot to take a picture of the scrub by itself soooo....yeah....
Over all I was really underwhelmed by this months bag. I think I'll continue to get Ipsy for another two or three months (whatever makes it a year for me) and then decide if I want to cancel or not. I do love the MicaBeauty pigments I get from the bag, but I'm not big on the haircare so I'll need to unsubscribe from that ASAP.
