July Ipsy Bag!


Hey everyone!
I hope you are having a wonderful week. I am super excited to be doing another Ipsy blog post today! But I do have some unfortunate news before I go into my first impressions and everything. This month, I have unsubscribed to Ipsy. Honestly, I did not want to but since I do not have a job at the moment and I am going away to college, I could not keep up the subscription service. But as you all know, I love Ipsy, I think it an amazing subscription service and I highly recommend it. Now onto what I got this month!

Pouch/bag:

Now apparently many people were complaining about this months bag. I honestly do not understand why. But I personally like this bag. I absolutely love the neon pink because it just screams summer. I love how simple it is. It honestly looks like an envelope to me. 

On to the products!

1) Healthy Sexy Hair Soy Renewal Beach Spray


I was super excited to be getting a sample of this product. First off, this is a really decent size sample, it looks like a travel sized. But I have always wanted to try something from the Healthy Sexy Hair line because they focused on making your hair healthy. Now I have extremely curly hair but I have been straightening it a lot this month because it has been easier to handle and I definitely want to try this on straightened hair. I also wonder what it would do on my curly hair? I dunno, I will keep you all updated if I like it!

2) Pop Beauty Sunkissed Bronzer in Secret Sunshine




Boy oh boy am I excited for this bronzer! This whole summer has been about the J Lo glow for me and I feel like this bronzer will help me achieve that. I think this is a full size product because there is a lot of product in it. I think this is a perfect shade for most skin tones. It would also look nice if you have a darker skin tone and you where this as a highlight. As you can see in the picture, there is a little shimmer in the bronzer but honestly that comes off after you apply it. I swatched it and I could not see any shimmer. Super excited to try this out!

3) Pixie Tinted Brilliance Balm in Pretty Pink




So pretty! This is the perfect summer lip color in my opinion. Now I think this is a pretty decent sample size. I love that you do not have to sharpen it, all you have to do is twist the bottom. I have never tried anything from Pixie but I have heard amazing things about the brand. Also, I like how versatile this color is. No matter if you are light skinned or dark skinned, I feel like this color will suite you. When I was swatching it, I noticed that it felt smooth and also very moisturizing. In a way it reminded me of the NYX Butter Glosses. 

4) Bare Minerals 5 in 1 (BB advanced performance cream eyeshadow) 



So excited about this product. As you all know, lately I have been having an obsession with cream eye shadows. I do not know why but I think they are amazing! Now this is a brand new product that is coming out from Bare Minerals. I am not quite sure what the shade is but it is gorgeous. It reminds me of a wetter version of Clinique's Shadow Tint in Lot's O Latte. When I swatched it the consistency was very smooth and nice. It was a more watery formula than most cream eye shadows but once I put it on, it dried instantly. I thought that was pretty impressive. Also this has an SPF of 15, so if you do not want your eye lids to burn, definitely consider trying this out. 

5) Hang 10 Dark Tanning Oil 


Honestly, I have never really used a tanning oil before, I only use tanning lotion or sunscreen. I am interested to try this because on the bottle it also says water resistant. Now I have not been able to go to the beach or the pool all summer but hopefully soon I will be able to test this out. It does have a scent. It is kinda hard to pin point on what it is  but in a way it smells like a mixture of vanilla and coconut. I could be completely wrong but that is what comes to mind when I smell it. 

So those are all the products that I received from this months Ipsy bag. I am super excited about all of them. There was not one product that I was disappointed in or not happy about. I will definitely let you know if any of these products stand out to me. Hopefully, I will be able to subscribe to Ipsy again. I hope you all have a wonderful day/evening!

Carpe Diem,
Sophia

Battle of the BB Creams!

Hello everyone! Now as you all can tell, I love the Battle of the series. The reason why is because I can review a bunch of products for you all in one blog post. Since it is summer and not many of you want to wear a ton of make up, I thought I would tell you my favorite BB creams. I also want to let you know that there might not be many blog posts in the month of July. The reason is because I am in college at the moment and I am super busy. I will try to put up as many as I can but I just want to let you all know! :) I hoped you all had a wonderful June! What is a BB cream?    Now BB stands for blemish balm. A BB cream is supposed to have a moisturizer, primer, concealer, skin treatment and foundation all in one.

June Ipsy Bag 2015!

Hey everyone! I really need a better way to say hi to you all. If you have any suggestions, let me know! Today I am doing my June Ipsy bag! I am super pumped because whenever I get my Ipsy bags/ pouches I get to try different brands that I might not have ever heard about. I never look at a preview of what I am going to get because I always want it to be a surprise. So let's get started. Not going to lie, when I first got my Ipsy bag, I was a little disappointed. The reason why is because on the Ipsy Instagram page, they had so many products that I wanted to try like the Formula X nail polish and  the It Cosmetics brow pencil. But when I first looked at the products that I received, I was disappointed. The bag/pouch: This pouch is super simple but I really like it. This is the perfect pouch to keep all your make up in and throw it in your purse. I like how it is flimsy feeling but durable. Some of the Ipsy pouches are very sturdy and structured and I am not really a...
