ipsy October 2016


October's bag is an adorable collaboration with artist and stylist Valfré. It is very cute. I really like it.

Check out my ipsy Pinterest board here.

Let's check out the products.
I was the most excited about this product. I love cleansing oils and who wouldn't want to get a Tatcha product in their ipsy bag. I mean come on...it's freaking Tatcha. I tried this out and I didn't really love it. It's a thicker oil and its easy to use and I just couldn't get it to take all my makeup off. I was showing my friend this oil online one day to show her the price and noticed they had videos up demonstrating how to use it. Well, I was using it incorrectly! Go figure. I wasn't rubbing my face with water to create the milky part to really clean my face. So, after trying again and using it correctly I have to say this stuff is, of course, amazing. If you have the money to splurge I'd definitely recommend this. My absolute favorite cleansing oil is from Garnier, however, they are discontinuing that I believe and I'm completely heartbroken.


This gel formula is very nice. It's actually my favorite type of cream. This worked wonderfully. After using this my skin looked very plump and moisturized. It's a nice cool feeling and it sinks into the skin making it very hydrated. I would recommend this for dry and normal skin types. This may be too much for someone with oily skin. If I didn't already have a favorite gel moisturizer I would look into purchasing this one.


I don't get it...I do not wear liquid liner and I have reviewed this a thousand times. I definitely won't be wearing this Gunmetal shade either. I will continue reviewing these in hopes of not receiving any more liquid liner.



This is a nice brush for packing color onto the lid. I really love getting tools in my ipsy bag. I wouldn't mind getting more actually. Out of all the tools I have received I think one was slightly scratchy and that was probably a year ago or more. Not only is this brush a good one, but it's very cute with the pink and black colors. I will definitely use this a lot. A thumbs up from me.


I love this brand. I have had two of these Matte Lip Crayons and I loved them. I knew I'd love this one as well. I think the color is great especially for fall. I am so happy about getting this. It's very creamy and there is a lot of pigment. It's one swipe color. I'd recommend this for sure. The shade I received, Belize Bordeaux, is a beautiful berry color that really stains the lips. It's just stunning.

My personal image

October's bag was an adorable teal quilted pattern. It is super chic and perfect for my style.

This is a great product. It is extremely lightweight. This does wonders for frizz and fly aways. It really moisturizes hair without weighing it down. It smells great as well. You don't have to use a lot to get great results with this product. This makes your hair silky soft and smooth.

There were two scent options for this hand cream. Mango Mandarin or Rose Berry and I received the Rose Berry one. I really like it. At first the texture was quite strange but after you use it a couple of times you get used it. It is a watery feel until you rub in the product in and after that your hands feel so silky soft. I'd like to try the other scent as well. Besides the product being good the packaging is super adorable.

There were six color options in this eye shadow and I received Plum Frost. I am so glad that I got this color. It is such a pretty shade. It works well with my skin tone. I didn't really see any other shade that I would like so I'm very thankful I got this color.

These facial wipes are wonderful! The scent is amazing plus they work really well. This sample pack actually had a lot more wipes than I thought. A lot of people complained about them but I don't think they were rubbing the cloth to make it lather and that does make a difference. I thought these were amazing.

This adorably sized sample came in the shade Guilty Pleasure. Starlooks claims this is a non-sticky formula, however, I found this very sticky. I'm not a huge fan of lip gloss anyway but I tried giving it a chance. This product was fine but it just wasn't for me. However, if you like lip gloss you may like this. It has a slight sweet scent which was okay and if you don't like a scent then you may not like this.

Overall, this bag was pretty good. I really like the design of the makeup bag. I really liked everything but the lip gloss. I loved the facial cloths and they eye shadow.
