ipsy August 2016

This month's theme is Sugar Highness. The bag was designed by Michelle Phan this month and there are two options. They both are stunning and very ethereal looking. I really love them.

Check out my Pinterest ipsy board here.

The products are down below.

Rodial Smokey Eye Pen in Black

This is very black and super easy to smudge. That's where the pros of this eyeliner end. It never fully sets or drys so it goes all over the place even after smudging it out. If you touch it or if  you're like me and have hooded eyes then it's going to go all over your eyelid and crease and just everywhere. I would not recommend this. It's too messy.

Madam C.J. Walker Beauty Culture Brassica Seed & Shea Oils Silkening Blow Out Crème

I hated this. It made my hair feel terrible. It made my hair feel coarse and unmanageable. It was hard to brush after using and I didn't notice any "silkening" happening at all. It also weighed my hair down, so this would be horrible if you have fine hair, which I don't, however it still weighed mine down. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this.

Beaute Basics 3 Tone Bronzer

This is an okay bronzer. It's a very pretty color and blends easily on the skin. My issue is with their site. If you want to purchase this you can't. It is no where to be found on their website. I mean no where. It's a total mess. 

Ciaté London Paint Pot in Dangerous Affair or Spinning Teacups

I was really hoping for the shade Dangerous Affair and sadly ended up with Spinning Teacups. I didn't want the purple because I have a full bottle of a shade very close to this one, however, this is a really beautiful color. The formula is great. Also, this is full size, which is amazing. This wore wonderfully on my nails. It didn't chip at all. It just faded lightly around the edges of my nail, which I really enjoyed.

tarte cosmetics tarteist™ lash paint mascara

I'd say I'm a fan of tarte cosmetics. So, I had my hopes up for this mascara. Well, I wasn't disappointed. This is great. It makes my lashes look full and fluttery. It doesn't smudge or flake on me. It really makes my lashes look great. I would recommend this for sure.
