February 1015 Ipsy

I love Ipsy.. usually.  For $10 a month, I have found some great products.  The best being Urban Decay's Perversion Mascara.  I love it!  But some months I wonder if they look at my profile and reviews. This month was a miss, well mostly a miss.

The bag: 

I love the bag! Perfect color.. I have a plan for all of my bags and this one will fit into my plans perfectly. 

Item #1:


This product was awesome! I loved it!  It left my skin feeling smooth and awesome. I have very sensitive skin, and it didn't aggravate it too badly.  

Verdict: Awesome :) 

Item #2


I liked this! I am not one that is big on perfume. I usually use just a body spray.  Too strong of a sent can sometimes give me massive headaches and give me rashes.  This gave me the perfect about of scent and it wasn't overwhelming.  I wore it for a few days with no rash, no headache.  I love the feminine/floral smell of this.  Very romantic without smelling like grandma.  I also like the roll on applicator! Much more control on how much perfume is released.. I feel that the spray perfume sometimes releases too much. 

Verdict: Loved it.. and I didn't expect to. 

Item #3


Eh. Glitter. Too old.  I am not a glitter person. I am not usually a nail polish person.  I usually just pay for a gel manicure.  I get frustrated when nail polish chips. I grew up swimming and around pools. Because of this, I never used nail polish because it would come off within 30 minutes of being in a pool.  The only time I have done nails is for a special occasion and even then, I pay someone to do it because I usually look like I mauled someone to death. I am horrible at applying nail polish.   I decided to give this a shot.  I looked like a 32 year old trying to be 13.  I didn't like it.  

Verdict: Not for me. The product looks like it is quality... but not a fan of glitter nail polish. 

Item #4


In my style profile, I specifically mentioned that I did NOT want blush, and I do not use it.  I wish that they would honor what we write and request in these profiles.  I didn't even try this because I look like a clown with blush on.  This might be a great blush for someone who wears it, but I don't. 

Verdict: Not for me. I wish they used our past reviews/style profile more.  

Item #5


Same thing as above. I don't wear any lip balm with color.  This isn't the first time I have been sent colored lip balm/lip stick, I wish they would have read my past reviews. 

Verdict: Not for me. I wish they used our past reviews/style profile more.  

I loved 2/5 which makes this a miss.  I just wish that they took our style profiles and past reviews into more consideration. There were definitely things that were in this month's bag that would have been better for me.  I completely understand that this a $10 service for samples and I am not going to love everything.  I am overall very happy with what I have received from this service and bad boxes are going to happen.  Hopefully they improve their reaction to our past reviews in the future.
