Ipsy Glam Bag- February 2015


 I can barely handle all the pink adorable-ness this month! Ipsy's cute little cosmetic bag was perfect. Pink for the holiday but the geometric design can be appreciated all year long!


And here are all the products! I had a lot of fun playing around with these!

 I love a good volumizing spray and this Up all Night Volumizing Spray  from Eva-NYC did not disappoint! I followed the directions and misted it in my hair and when I blew dry my hair it was fluffy and gorgeous!  This will have to be replenished when I run out of this little bottle. It was amazing!

Mitchell and Peach  Fine Radiance Face Oil was such a great product to include this month as it has been very dry and cold and my skin has been paying for it. Instead of putting this oil directly on my skin, I actually take 1-2 drops of it and mix it in with my BB cream or foundation and apply it with my beautyblender. This way my face stays moisturized all day even when the air is trying to suck all the moisture out of it!
 ModelCo  Blush Cheek powder in Cosmopolitan kind of just looked like another boring pink blush, but I actually ended up really liking the color! It is very versatile and can go with any look and might just become my daily go-to blush!
















This City Color Creamy Lip Stain in Flirtini was good in theory but fell short for me. The color was actually flattering and ended up being very bright on my tanned skin. It was a bit hard to apply and get a nice line with the applicator tip but cleaned up easily with some tissue. It did not "stain" my lips at all but it did have a nice matte finish which I liked. The big down fall for me with this is that my lips ended up VERY dry and flaky after wearing this for only 2 hours. I applied it before I went grocery shopping and when I got home I had to slather on lip moisturizer because they were cracking. I will have to try this over top of a moisturizing product to see if it improves its wear-ability. 








This photo doesn't have any filters and is taken in sunlight. As you can see the color of the lip stain is very nice. I paired it with a brown smokey eye but I bet it would be very nice with a darker eye make up!
















I always appreciate new tools and this Professional Eyelash Curler  from Emite Make up is great! I now have a collection of 4 regular lash curlers and 2 travel sized (and 1 more that I packed away with the Christmas ornaments lol). I actually think I like this one the best though. More than the pink one I bought from Sephora and have been using as my daily one. This one has a great curve to it and is very wide so it gets all of my lashes from corner to corner.
