Ipsy: November/December Glam Bag

November: Beauty Blast


I love the galaxy bag it's super adorable.

I received:

 China Glaze nail polish in Techno: I'm not usually a fan of just glitter nail polish because there's never enough glitter to cover the whole nail. It's always spotty. This nail polish is amazing! I love it. It has big pieces of glitter and small pieces, so that even if a spot doesn't have a big piece of glitter it still has a lot of little ones filling the space.
 Trestique Mini Matte Lip Crayon in Chile Red: I like the product. It goes on well and I like the shape. I don't really like the shade they sent me; I think it's too bright of a red for me. I line my lips with black lipstick and then put this red over it. After I've done that, it looks much better.
 Beauti Basics gel eyeliner in Navy: It goes on smoothly and wings just glide right on. I like it a lot, the only thing is that I rarely wear blue eyeliner. If I had it in black I would probably wear it everyday.
 Smashbox Full Exposure mascara: This product is really hyped up as being an amazing mascara, but I don't see it. It's ok, but I have better mascaras and they're drugstore. Higher end is not always better. It's a little messy and it always looks like I have more on one eye than the other.
 Figs and Rouge Hydra-Activ Hydration Cream: It has a grandma smell (like a perfume your grandmother would wear), but it makes my hands really soft. It says to put on your face and hands, but I wouldn't put it on my face especially because of the way it smells.

Best in the bag: China Glaze Nail Polish
Worst in the bag: Smashbox Mascara


December: From Ipsy with Love


I received:

 Tarte Amazonian clay finishing powder: I have never used finishing powder and I wasn't sure how much to use, but my makeup stayed on all day. I guess it worked.
 Clark's Botanicals Deep Moisture Mask: This smelled good and didn't feel like a heavy mask. It made my skin feel soft and moisturized after.
 Marc Anthony conditioning treatment: My hair was really soft and the smell wasn't bad. It had a bit of a coconut smell. It's made with coconut oil and I've heard a lot of people put it on their hair for shine. I haven't seen a huge difference in my hair, but I've only used it once and it's supposed to be a weekly thing.
 Model Co Illusion lip liner: It has a color similar to the lipstick, I'm guessing they did that on purpose, but because I do not like the lipstick, I used it with an elf nude color lipstick I already have. It doesn't look too bad with my elf.
Pacifica lipstick in Nudie Red: It has a weird wood smell. It smells like sandalwood. The color is a weird brown coral.

Best in the bag: Clark's Botanicals Mask
Worst in the bag: Pacifica Lipstick

Favorite Things: November

This is late because of finals. I've had so many projects and essays.


Makeup:
Ipsy is a subscription service that sends you 5 beauty products a month for just $10. It's pretty amazing. I think I might do a post and show you guys what I got and probably do a review. What I really like is their giveaways. Instead of mindlessly clicking a button to enter the giveaways, you enter by posting to instagram. They'll say post a fall eye look, a facial mask, nails of the day, a selfie.. anything.

Music:
Gwen Stefani's "Used to Love You" has been stuck in my head for days, but I love it so much.






DISNEYLAND!!!!!!!
Isn't this everyone's favorite?
I got this really cute sweater from the hotel's gift shop. It's so soft and I love the white on black.

I have never had dole whip and I tried it for the first time on this trip. It was strangely addicting. The first bite was "this is weird and interesting" and then my spoon just kept going in for more.
