Below is my review on each product I received in this month’s bag:

IBY Beauty

Crease Brush – $12

I always love getting makeup brushes in my Ipsy bags because they are so expensive and I love to try different ones. This brush is awesome, it’s a great size for what it is. It can be used for just crease application, but it’s also great for blending. 

COUGAR Beauty Products

24 Hour Liquid Lipstick in Mulberry – £6.99

I think this may be my favorite product of the bag. The color is not my favorite but I can’t deny how amazing the quality is. It has such a velvet application that dries super fast. Though it doesn’t last all day does need a second application after eating. However, it’s super light and after a while, you forget you’re even wearing it. The only complaint I hate is the smell. It’s got a very strong sweet smell and if you’re sensitive to smells I would not recommend this product. It can get a little overpowering at first.

Ciaté London

Wonderwand Gel-Kohl Hybrid Liner in Black – $18

Usually, I’m not a huge fan of gel liner – I prefer liquid liner most of the time. But this is definitely a great product. I’ve been wearing it for a more subtle liner look and it works great. It doesn’t rub off on my lids and I love that it’s double ended. One end has the pencil and the other is a brush for blending. I love it!

Eau Thermale Avène

Cleanance MAT Mattifying Toner – $22

I have been loving this toner. At first, I wasn’t excited about it but it’s been great! So far it doesn’t dry out my skin. It removes excess dirt and makeup. I’m definitely happy to keep using it.

OFRA Cosmetics

‘Gold Rush’ or ‘Victory’ Eyeshadow – $15

I love sampling OFRA cosmetics because their products are always flawless. This eyeshadow is no different! I would have preferred the gold tone shadow because this shade in Victory is a little darker than I like, however, I still love the quality. It can also be used as a liner if used with a wet brush, so I’m excited to try that.

Overall, this bag was probably average compared to others in the past. It wasn’t the best and it definitely wasn’t the worst. The bag itself is also super cute so that helps. It took me a day or two to realize it was an animated melting egg! That’s how I feel most summer days.
