A surprise in a little pink bag

I have a habit of signing up for little things without even really taking note that I did so. That being said, I may have coerced myself into signing up for a little thing called ipsy. Ipsy is a website that every month sends you a cute bag full of beauty goodies! Who doesn't love to try new beauty products? After signing up, I had to be put on a wait list that surprisingly took no time at all, which was the main reason why I was so surprised when it arrived. When signing up you are given a little survey to take that will help the ipsy representatives put together the perfect beauty pouch for you! The best part of it all? It is $10 a month with free shipping and the value of everything comes to at least $30! It arrived for me in the most darling bright pink packaging that I stared at for a good five minutes before actually opening, & inside I found the cutest little blue pouch (which apparently changes monthly which is an added bonus)!

Inside this pouch was an array of different products that I had never tried before--all of which I fell in love with immediately after trying. There was a bottle of Rihanna's perfume ROUGE--which seemed to be a sample but there is a generous amount inside of it! There was also a lip gloss by STARLOOKS that is lovely & makes my lips look full pink, as well as gorgeous green & shimmery eyeshadow by MICA Beauty Cosmetics. The last two gifts are probably two of my favorites in the package actually! There was a packet of Skyn Iceland glacial cleansing cloths that take my make up off in a matter of seconds, and keep it from breaking out during stressy times--my skin always feels so wonderful after I use them! The other product is an an acacia protein BB cream by ECRU New York, & it is absolutely marvelous on my hair! It leaves it shiny & super duper soft! I love what it does to my hair so much that I might order myself some after this bottle runs out!

I definitely would tell you to check out ipsy by clicking the link I provided--especially if you're really into beauty & such because it is a quick & cheap way to try out new products without having to commit to giant bottles of products that you may not like at all! Plus, it can always add a smile to your face if you come home to a shiny pink package in your mailbox that contains a handful of beauty surprises! Might be worth giving up one day of Starbucks to get a happy surprise in your mailbox!
