Ipsy Delivery! ~July 2013 Edition~

Hello Darlings!

And oh, hello Ipsy! What a lovely surprise to come home to after a long day: a bunch of beauty goodies!

For those of you that don't know what Ipsy is, it's a beauty subscription service that matches products just for you, which you receive once a month.
Subscriptions can get pricey (thinking of you, Little Black Bag), but for those that still want to partake in the subscription world, Ipsy is just for you!! You get 6 products every month (occasionally 5, but this is only when you receive more pricey items), and they are always tucked in a cute, unique makeup bag that unzips to reveal all the goodies inside. Every Ipsy bag I've gotten has had a majority of high end products, with only a few scattered about that you could find in drugstores. And because Ipsy has you take a test in the beginning to determine your makeup style, you're never disappointed. I've also gotten so many things I'd never branch out to buy on my own - so it's been expanding my makeup horizons!

The best best part? Ipsy only runs at $10.00 per month. WHAT? Yes, it's true - no more cringing at that  online price! And if you don't want to even spend that small amount? You can always skip any month before you're charged, and wait until the next month to get your next package.

Overall, this beauty subscription gets 5 stars from me, and I'm very pleased with it. Go check it out here!

SO - let's dive in! This is the July Glam Bag, and I came home so excited when I found out it was waiting for me! Ahh it's Christmas Summer! (oops it confused me for a second)

Ipsy always has a cute greeting card:


 So cute! A bundle of goodies!


Let's begin:

Benefit Cosmetics is that brand I always browse and stare at, but I can never seem to cough up the big bucks to spend on it. However, I've been meaning to dip my toe into the Benefit Cosmetics pool - so this was probably the most exciting item in my bag! This is "benetint" - A cheekstain/blush that also works as a lipstain. It's versatile, bright, long-lasting, and gives the perfect glow, and I'm so excited to try it out!


This is Healthy Sexy Hair's "Soy Renewal Beach Spray". It is described as, "Beach look conditioning & texturizing spray with argan oil". This will be marvelous to have while at the beach or sitting poolside. A great summer pick! 


Sunscreen! I was excited about this Coola "Mineral Sunscreen & Tinted Moisturizer" for sure, since I am so lazy about buying sunscreen - especially for my face! This will keep me protected and sun-ready this summer, and will help me to be more vigilant about applying. 


Pop Beauty has got to have one of the cutest designs and packaging! Ahh I love it! This Pouty Pop Crayon is in the shade "Fuschia Flirt", and I LOVE fuschia, so this is definitely going to be used! Good job on knowing my color faves, Ipsy! ;)


I've seen some Youtube tutorials where this palette is used, and I knew I was in love with it before I even got my Ipsy delivery. The colors are perfect for summer, bright and fun. So excited about this one!


And last but not least, this was the month's cute bag - I always keep them! They are so useful for travel or to hold extra makeup. The bag is so bright and vibrant - who could resist that pink color? Love!


I think it would be fun to do some future tutorials, demos, and/or reviews on some of these products, once I've used them and tried them out. 

Are you currently subscribed to Ipsy or any other beauty subscriptions? What products are you loving?
