Unboxing: Ipsy September Glamazon Glam Bag

IPSY is a $10 monthly subscription box of beauty products.  

Each box (or pink package) contains a make-up pouch that is designed according to the monthly box theme. The bag contains a combination of 4-5 sample and full size products.This subscription box is the best way to try and test different make-up brands without breaking the bank. This is also a cheap way to build your make up arsenal. :)

Ipsy ships to US and Canada.

This month's theme is  Glamazon


Here are the items in the bag

Here's a closer look of the Ipsy Bag

I noticed that in the past few months, Ipsy has been putting a lot of effort in the design of their bags. They used to have cheap looking - 99 cent like bags but now, it definitely looks better and unique.

I received 4 deluxe size samples and 1 full size cosmetic item this month.  I have to say that although I love this month's bag design, I am not really that psyched about its contents. 


Onomie
Powerful Priming Serum in Truth

  • Soft-focus finish. Looks great under makeup or on its own.
  • Look at me, ma. Powerful antioxidant blend visibly improves skin tone.
  • Hello, radiance. Gently exfoliates to smooth and refresh.




NUXE
Moisturizing Mask Crème Fraîche de Beauté

Soothes and softens even the driest of skin with plant milks and white blossom.
 Instantly relieves any skin discomfort. Hydrates for 24 hours.


IT Cosmetics 
Superhero™ Mascara in Super Black
 
Formulated with peptides and proteins for extreme volume and unbeatable length.
  • Delivers a one-two punch. Biotin and collagen both strengthen and plump lashes.
  • Proprietary Elastic Stretch Technology wraps and extends each individual lash.
  • Unique brush design delivers maximum separation and curl.



BelláPierre Cosmetics
Mineral Blush in Autumn Glow

Comes in a peachy-bronze shade. Gives a natural just-been-to-the-gym glow. No chalky texture. Talc-free, paraben-free and suited to all skin types



Living Proof
Perfect hair Day (PhD) 5-in-1 Styling Treatment

Smooths, volumizes, conditions, strengthens and polishes hair.
  • Patented OFPMA and PBAE molecules protect and thicken tresses
  • No need to hit the gym to build strength. When our marketing team tried it, we all saw less hair left behind in our brushes.
  • Keeps style cleaner for longer—so we can rock 3rd, 4th and 5th day hair
I received this same item in my Play! by Sephora September box.

Perhaps out of 5 stars, I am giving this month's box a 3. The bag is beautiful but I am not really happy with the stuff that was in it. Hopefully, they can give more full size cosmetics.

On another note, Sephora is running a promo until September 25, 2016.  Current members can send up to 5 free glam bags to any family of friends who are not yet subscribed to Ipsy. The bags are free but the catch is that the next one is not.  Once subscribed, the giftee has an option to cancel the subscription for the following month. If you want your friends to be in, go to your account ASAP!
