August Ipsy Bag!

So it is long over due, I have just been super busy with work finally opening! I have been working long hours and haven't really had the time I would like to have in order to sit down and really work super hard on a post for you all..... But I wanted to make sure that a little something was put up about my August Ipsy bag...

I was not a huge fan of this months bag, it smelled like those floaties you wear to the pool as a kid... 

It does not hold its shape at all and flattens easily, and this picture was taken with the products in it.

The first thing I pulled out of my bag was a duo blush sample from Coastal Scents. I was excited to try a new blush, but that excitement quickly faded when I actually tried these... They were super chalky and the colours did not look good on my skin. a full size of one of these is .35oz for $7.95 making this sample .08oz worth $1.81  

The second thing I got is the pores no more by Dr. Brandt. I had never tried this brand before, or even really heard about it, but I really like this product! A full size is 1oz for $45 and this sample was .25oz worth $11.25 which pays for your bag! 

Thirdly I got Urban Decays new Perversion mascara... I am NEVER using another mascara (at least for a while) again. I am so in love with this formula and brush! a full size that comes with the matching primer is .4oz for $22 and this sample was .1o worth $5.50!

The next product is the Lord&Berry Kajal Kohl-liner. I was super excited about this, but it is extremely prone to smudging and running, giving the appearance of raccoon eyes very easily. I will most likely be using this during the fall and winter months when it won't run easily. A full size of this pencil is .48oz for $19.35 at asos (the L&B site is currently down) and the sample is .02oz worth $8.06!

The last product I received is a sort-of full sized product. This product normally comes in a set of two, but only one was given out in the glam bags.....

 I got the Absolute New York 'You're the Balm' in Green Apple. After receiving my bag I do look at my Glam room and according to it I should have gotten the Grape one, but I am super happy I got this one instead! (not much of a fan of grape things) The set of these lip balms is 24g for $5.99 for just one in my tipsy bag is it 12g for $2.99!

All in all I was fairly happy with this months bag, with my favorite sample being the Urban Decay mascara. My tipsy bag this month was worth $29.61 and for a $10 subscription box is pretty good!
