Ipsy September 2023
Hello, I am still catching up from when I was in my funk and got behind on everything.
This month’s theme was Find Your Groove. Which works for September because I feel like that’s one of the months we kinda lose it before the chaos of the holiday season.
Here we have a list of all the things that were in the bag. Which I always appreciate.
This bag is very Keith Haring it’s design and I really dig it.
Hey Honey Show Your Glow- Colloidal Gold & Honey Beauty Mask. I have tried this brand before with out a lot of issues. This one is a face mask. It did go on very smooth. I left it on for 15-20 minutes. I didn’t really see any giant differences after using it. It’s not bad but I don’t know if I would buy it again.
A full size 2.0oz tube is $49.

Kopari Beauty Niacinamide and Caffeine Eye Bright Cream. I have tried this brand before not really any of the face products. This one is an under eye cream which I always appreciate having on hand. This one you only need to apply a little bit. It goes on easy, it does brighten up my under eyes and make them smoother. I’ve been using this in the morning before I do my normal make up routine and I really do like it. I would buy this one again.
This one comes in a full size that is 0.5 flow for $36. It can also be set up on a subscribe & save.
Lavido Thera Intensive Oil Control Clarifying Gel Wash. I’ve not heard of this brand before. I do appreciate face washes. This one is a simple gel. It applies easily and suds up really nice. It does have a lot of mint scent to it but it’s not so overwhelming that it’s too much. It did clean my face without any issues, I didn’t rebel against anything. I would buy this one again.
A full size is 4.05 fl oz for $29.

Pacifica Beauty Stellar Gaze Length & Strength Mineral Mascara in Supernova. I have tried this brand several times and have really enjoyed it. I’ve not had any issues out of it. I don’t believe I’ve tried a mascara from them though. But I do always appreciate a good mascara. This one applies easily. I can use a couple coats without any clumping. It did make my lashes look full and long. I would buy this one again.
This one is $14 a tube and comes in 2 shades.

Reina Rebelde on Your Face Finishing Powder in Perla. This is not a brand that I’ve heard of. But I do appreciate the packaging on this of the with the black and Gothic lettering. This one is a powder. It did match my skin tone pretty well. I have been able to use this one with my normal make up without it or it rebelling against anything. I would buy this one again.
This one is $23 for a full size and $12 for a mini which is this size. It only comes in 4 shades.

Overall, I did really like everything this bag. I didn’t have any issues with it.
If you want to sign up for Ipsy it’s currently Monthly $13 (plus tax & $1.99 handling). I think I’m going to pause mine for a while since I'm just not thrilled with anything in general right now.
