My first ever blog post (November ipsy bag)

Today, I am going to write my first ever review on a beauty subscription (ipsy) :D

In this month's bag, I received the following:
1. Benefit they're real mascara

Impressions: when I received this, I was not very happy with it since I do have a full-sized product on the side and one of my other subscription box sent me the same thing. BUT I have rediscovered this mascara and fell back in love with it (I only used my full-sized one, I'm planning to give these away to friends). I gotta say I am still happy with what I received. 

2. Starlet Cosmetics Eye Pencil in Chocolate

Impression: very nice package and a nice neutral colour.

3. Nailtini Nail Laquer in Millionaire

Impression: I was thrilled to receive another nail polish. But I'm just worried cause I know how hard it is to remove glitter nail polish.

4. the Balm Meet Matt(e) in Matt Batali



Impression:  I have heard so many good things about the Balm's eyeshadow. I was very happy that the ipsy bag puts this one in it, even though I don't typically use matte eyeshadow, I think I will use this as my eyebrow powder :P

5. eclos Anti-aging Regenerative Cream


Impression: I know I should start using anti-aging products already, but I wasn't very impressed with this product because I don't use any anti-aging products, also, my skin is so sensitive I don't like to switch brands. My favorite brand is still Avene, Origins and Kiehl's.
Bonus: because ipsy cannot ship one of their products in Canada I think, they have also sent me a blending brush which I am very happy about it. :D
Also, there is an insert with coupon codes for each product to be purchased on it's company's website.

Overall, very impressed with this month's ipsy bag, I have already seen the sneak peek for the next month's one.
