IPSY June Bag

I LOVED this month’s bag and have been using it for the last two weeks so let’s review:

• Sophia + Maybelle two pretty duo: LOVE! By far my favorite from this bag!

• Wander Beauty Mile high club mascara: ALSO LOVE, this is one of the best mascaras I’ve tested in a while.

• Balance me cleanser: I enjoyed this and it’s worked well for my skin. I’ve had fewer breakouts despite sweating a lot in the heat.

• JLo Beauty Niacinamide serum: eh, this was ok. I’ve tried other similar serums and liked them more.

• Jasmine Brow Wax: As someone who doesn’t use or like brow waxes that much, I do like this one and plan on keeping it. It holds up well in the heat.

... Read moreGetting your monthly IPSY bag always feels like Christmas morning, doesn't it? Unboxing that colorful beauty bag and discovering new treasures is half the fun! This month’s delivery, with its promise of new makeup and skincare to try, definitely had me intrigued. It’s not just about the products themselves, but the whole experience of discovering potential new holy grails that fit right into my routine. Speaking of discovery, let’s dive into serums, especially after trying the JLo Beauty Niacinamide serum from this bag. While it was okay, it made me think about all the amazing serums out there. Serums are such a powerhouse for tackling specific skin concerns! If you’re like me and always on the hunt for that perfect glow, you might be exploring options like Vitamin C serums for brightening and antioxidant benefits, or collagen-boosting serums to help with plumpness and fine lines. I’ve personally found that incorporating a good Vitamin C serum in the morning can really transform my skin's radiance over time, and a peptide-rich serum at night works wonders for firmness. It’s all about finding what your skin truly needs. Don't be afraid to read reviews and look for key ingredients that target your specific concerns, whether it's dullness, fine lines, or breakouts. Then there’s the mascara! The Wander Beauty Mile High Club Mascara from this bag was a huge hit for me. Finding a mascara that truly delivers on volume and length without clumping is like striking gold. I've been through so many mascaras over the years, from drugstore finds to high-end splurges, and it's always exciting when one stands out. A good mascara can instantly make your eyes pop, even on days when you’re keeping the rest of your makeup minimal. My tip? Don’t pump the wand, twist it out to prevent air from drying out the formula! And let's not forget about the other essentials! The Balance Me cleanser has been a pleasant surprise, especially with all the summer heat and sweating. A gentle yet effective cleansing milk is a non-negotiable in my skincare routine. It sets the stage for everything else, making sure my skin is clean and ready to absorb those serums. And for brows, the Jasmine Brow Wax was a game-changer! Even if you’re not a huge brow product person, a good brow wax can really shape and hold your brows in place, giving your face a more polished look all day long. The highlighter and bronzer palette also adds that perfect finishing touch to any look, giving a radiant, sun-kissed glow. To really get the most out of your IPSY subscription, make sure you're regularly reviewing your products and updating your beauty profile. This helps IPSY tailor your bags even better to your preferences, leading to more hits than misses. Plus, don't forget to reuse those adorable bags! They’re perfect for organizing small items in your purse, storing makeup brushes, or even as travel pouches. It’s all part of the fun of discovering new products and enjoying your beauty routine!
