Ipsy Glam Bag
October Ipsy glam bag was Halloween themed named Spellbound. This bag featured products from Tonymoly, Skinvolve, Essence, Derelict, and It Cosmetics. Out of all the products I had high hopes for the Bye Bye Pores Pressed Powder By It Cosmetics but I was disappointed. Anyways here’s what I thought about the products I received.
Peach Hand Cream By Tonymoly
Peach Hand Cream By Tonymoly: This hand cream was alright nothing special. I am not a big fan of receiving hand cream in my Ipsy glam bag – I would have preferred a lip product. Nevertheless, the hand cream smells great and it’s lightly scented.
Phoenician Secret Scrub Peppermint By Skinvolve
Phoenician Secret Scrub Peppermint By Skinvolve: This product was different and I liked that. Ipsy usually doesn’t add these type of products to my glam bag. It’s a good scrub but you must avoid the eye area. Nevertheless, it leaves the skin feeling fresh and clean.
Satin Touch Blush in Satin Coral or Satin Love By Essence
Satin Touch Blush in Satin Coral or Satin Love By Essence Cosmetics: This blush is actually pigmented I was surprised since I didn’t expect much from it. However, it’s a little powdery but for the $2.99 it’s a good blush. I wouldn’t buy it though. My go-to blushes are La Femme Blushes.
Dermelect ‘Me’ in What-A-Gem or Verdure By Dermelect
Dermelect ‘Me’ in What-A-Gem or Verdure By Dermelect: There is always room for nail polish, so I am always happy to see one in my Ipsy bag. The color of this nail polish is pretty – it is a duochrome nail polish. Additionally, it applies beautifully and dries quickly.
Bye Bye Pores Pressed Powder By It Cosmetics
Bye Bye Pores Pressed Powder By It Cosmetics: This was my product of choice. I was so excited to try this product. I have eyed the Bye Bye Poreless Finish Airbrush Powder on Sephora for a while now. Well, after trying the pressed powder I am happy I never got the Bye Bye Poreless Finish Airbrush Powder. This pressed powder changed the color of my foundation and my pores were still very visible. The only pro is, it was very mattifying for the first hour. I would not recommend this at all.
Final Thoughts
The bag was cute. Overall it was a good bag. However, I won’t be buying any of these products. Stay tuned for November Ipsy Bag.
Have you tried any of these products?
The Essence Satin Touch blush is really good for the price – I have it and like it a lot.
Too bad the Bye Bye Pores powder didn’t work well for you – how disappointing.
Yes, the Essence blush really surprised me especially for the price and the amount you get. It’s a good deal. The Bye Bye Pores powder was disappointing but I will continue trying it out with different foundations to see if I get better results.
