July Ipsy Bag Review!

Back in May I decided that one of the things I was going to get myself for my birthday was a month subscription to Ipsy, I signed up at the end of the month which meant I received June's bag. You can see my review for that bag by clicking here. I thought the bag was cute and I was excited about one of the items sent, the others were a toss up so I wasn't sure if I wanted to get another month or just cancel it. 

One of the things they do on their site is they give a sneak peek at what the next month's bag might contain, so when I received the email with a few of the spoilers where it let's you choose on of the items that will be in your bag I decided to keep my subscription for another month. This is what I received in my July Bag:


My bag arrived looking slightly beat up, it has a bunch of scruff marks on it that don't seem to want to come off. The bag is a type of vinyl material that smells like a pool floaty and seems like it will get dirty quickly, so while I think the bag is cute it won't be used. 

Inside my bag I found a Luxie brush, which is a cute pink! I do love makeup brushes, but I recently bought a big set so this brush is going to get put in one of my future Beauty & The Book Giveaways. I also received a Verb curl cream, which smells nice, it spreads out evenly and does seem to help my curls a bit. 



I am also looking forward to using the Murad daily moisturizer with sunscreen and the Ciate watermelon hydrating primer. The item I selected as my choice item was the Kat Von D tattoo liner, I was excited about testing it out, however it was a big disappointment. I am happy I was able to test out a smaller version of it before committing to a full size.


I think this subscription is a big toss up, for around $13 ($12 a month plus tax) you could end up with some great products you were wanting to try out or you could end up with some duds. Seeing next month's bag nothing excited me so I won't be getting another month, however I will probably keep an eye on the future bags and if any look good I might pick them up. I do still wish they had an option to select "No Makeup bag" and instead you could get another sample product or a small discount.

I did recently find a neat subscription that is similar in price and comes with five full sized products vs sample sized products. It is called LipMonthly and I'll be reviewing that one here on my blog soon as well. 

**This is not a sponsored post, I purchased this product myself and wanted to share what I thought about it with my readers who have similar interests.**

It's been awhile since I was a member of Ipsy. I miss the cute bags they give you and the travel size products. That is how I found my favorite mascara "better than sex" LOL
