Ipsy Glam Bag May 2013 and GIVEAWAY!!

Hello everyone! Today I received my May 2013 Ipsy Glam bag. For those of you who are unaware, Ipsy provides a beauty subscription service where, for $10 a month, you get a bag filled with goodies! It is a great way to try out products that you wouldn’t normally have the opportunity to. Let’s dive in, shall we?

This month I received:

• A sample of Yaby concealer in Buff
• A Pacifica roll on perfume in Island Vanilla
• NuMe Finishing Serum
• Juicy Beauty Reflecting Gloss in Fig
• Zoya nail polish in Julie

So far, I have really enjoyed the products that I have tried. The hair oil is great at adding shine and taming frizz without making hair greasy or weighed down. The perfume is a pretty scent. It’s not something that I would wear every day, but it is a sweet vanilla scent without being too cloying. I haven’t had a chance to try the concealer yet, but it is creamy and nicely pigmented. I really enjoyed the Juicy Beauty lip gloss. It is really shiny but not sticky at all. Isn’t it the worst when you find a gloss that you love, but your hair ends up stuck to your mouth every ten seconds? Thankfully, that doesn’t happen here. This gloss smells like oranges which, for me, is as added bonus. I am obsessed with citrus scents! Here are some lip and hand swatches of the gloss:

Very pretty 🙂

Last, but not least, we have the Zoya nail polish in Julie. I LOVE Zoya polishes; they last forever on my fingers and toes and my nails tend to chip really easily. The only downfall is, I already have this shade! So, I have decided to do a little giveaway 🙂 All you have to do to enter is follow my blog and leave a comment on this post telling me what your favorite Spring/ Summer nail polish is right now. Easy right? This giveaway is open to all U.S. residents. The winner will be selected at random and will be announced on June 1, so be sure to check back here!
