I can't believe it is already OCTOBER. Where does the time go? Once again, I found myself ripping open my brand spankin' new October Glam Bag FILLED with beauty goodies! When I say goodies, I mean they are GOODies which I was pleasantly surprised with what I had received. I just couldn't wait to share with you! Do you remember that little post I did back in September about a beauty program that doesn't break the bank? In case you missed out, here is a little re-cap!
ispy is a company that offers a mini cosmetic bag filled with five full or trial sized items for a small fee of $10.00 a month! Their cosmetic bags are called "Glam Bags" and are tailored to your specific beauty preferences! First, you fill out a little information about your beauty interests and ispy's personal stylists get your bag in tip top shape to send you. Each month your Glam Bag is filled with different products and brands giving you the chance to try a wide spectrum of goods! I also mentioned in my September post that you can skip months or cancel your subscription! But how can you skip when you pay a flat rate of $10.00 and shipping is free and here's the kicker, the product-filled bags are ALWAYS worth more than the ten bucks you throw at it. So amazing.
After falling in love with my first Glam Bag I was stoked, to say the least, to rip open my new hot pink package. This months Glam Bag contained a full sized Bella Terra Shimmer in Emotion. It is an 8 in 1 product that works as a creamy OR matte eye shadow, eye liner, lip color, nail polish color, mascara, body glitter and hair color. Talk about a win. I was pleasantly surprised that it only cost a whopping $14.99 and could function as 8 other products. It's also a good all mineral product making it healthy for wear on skin! Second product I whipped out was a full sized Coastal Scents Medium Shadow Brush that goes for $2.49. It is made with 100% natural pony hair bristles and they are silky smooth. It's safe to say it's a great basic for anyone's makeup bag. Personally I do like a natural haired brush over a synthetic brush when it comes to applying powdered products solely based on better application. With this product being so inexpensive I'm curious how well it holds up. Only time will tell and I'll be sure to keep you updated. Up next I pulled out a trial sized Nourish Organic Deeply Nourishing Coconut & Argan Body Lotion. Talk about a mouth full. I'll be honest, I'm not the biggest fan just on the sole fact that it smells uber funky, almost like a medical/dental office-y smell. It's pretty light weight and I could name a few brands that are similar in price and size that I'd rather use. Also, I received a full sized Zoya nail polish in Neve valued at $8.00 and it is GORG. I plan on whipping it on for next week's Mani Monday and giving it a full blown review. So keep on the look out for next week's Mani Monday! Last but not least is a Big Sexy Hair trial size hairspray. I left it out of the photo just because I am no hair care professional. Maybe in another life I'll give cosmetology school a whirl but it's not in the current plan! However, if you're curious, I do like the hairspray! All five items made up this month's glam bag and I'm in product heaven. Next month can't come soon enough!
Thank you ispy for offering awesome brands and goodies for an awesome price! If you're interested in treating yourself to a bag of pretty check out ispy. You'll be glad you did!
PS. With every Glam Bag you get a set of awesome Promo Codes from brands featured that month. That way if you fall in love with a product and gotta have more of it, you can for a friendlier price.
P.S.S. If anyone in the Idaho Falls area wants the makeup bag (pictured above) you can have it! First person to get a hold of me gets it! My stock pile of makeup bags is a little out of control and I'd be happy to give it to someone that'll enjoy it.
