Excited to receive my August Ipsy bag on time this month. Actually it is earlier than usual but who would complain? My other beauty subscription box, Topbox, will be arriving last week of the month though.
I haven't done any peeking this month for the Ipsy bag so it is a total surprise.
August Ipsy Bag's theme is Glamour Academy
Comes in a very pretty purple bag with gold Ipsy prints. Very chic. Resembles the pattern from Juicy Couture.
5 Products included for this month's bag:
noya Natural lip balm in Cherry(0.15 oz)
Pixi Lash Booster Mascara in No. 2 Blackest Black (0.105 oz)
Pacifica Alight Multumineral BB cream(0.34 fl oz)
Michael Todd Pumpkin Nutriend Rich Facial Mask (1 fl oz)
Mica Beauty Cosmetics Shimmer Powder in 17 Bronze (0.10 oz)
Very excited to receive and finally have a chance to try the raved organic skincare brand: Michael Todd. I am sent the pumpkin facial mask. The consistency is not too thick and resembles exactly what mashed-up pumpkin would look like. It scents just like pumpkin and I am excited to try this out.
The Mica Beauty Cosmetics Shimmer Powder, however, is not too promising. I have been sent a few products from the brand before and never been a fan of it. This one is a shimmer powder. It slides on the skin pretty easy so I may give it a try as a highlighter.
Happy to receive another Pacifica product as I love their body lotion and still haven't been able to find where I can purchase them in Canada yet. I have tried many Target stores and Whole Foods in the Toronto area and still haven't got any luck.(**edit, I just found out well.ca carries the brand yeah :)This time, I am sent a BB cream. I am a BB cream fan and this one seems very smooth and not sticky. Coverage is sheer though so will have to see.
Other 2 products in this bag is the noya cherry lip balm and the Pixi lash booster mascara which are ok but not overly excited about these. But overall very happy about my August Ipsy bag. The Michael Todd mask and the Pacifica BB cream make up for the other so-so products for the bag.
What did you get in your August Ipsy bag? Are you happy with what you get this month?
