Okay! At least I am in the correct month now! Ipsy really wowed me this month. I have enjoyed getting their bags, but this one is my favorite of the two! Want to know why??
I admit, I haven't yet tried this, but I will tomorrow. We are getting ready for a family reunion by a lake, and I need to put on some self tanner so my legs are not light beacons for fish. And before I dare put the self tanner on, I need to exfoliate. That being said, I have used (and still do, actually) Barefoot products, and for a drugstore brand, they are at the top of my list! They even included a $2 off coupon with one of the samples. I have not seen this product in store before, and I am hoping the $2 coupon is not a premonition of this being expensive. Stay tuned, though...I will add a PS in my June review for how this worked out.
I really don't know much about this company, but I did try their sun screen. It seems to do the trick! An SPF of 50 is great for redheads like myself (and everyone else...skin cancer is bad, mmmkay? Protect your skin!!) AND as a bonus, it smells good AND is non-greasy!! The back label also claims Oxybenzone free, Paraben Free, Retinyl Palmitate free, and synthetic fragrance free. I would definitely buy this brand again!
I don't know much about this brand either, and to be honest, I haven't really even given this eye shadow a try. I don't wear "colors", per se. I am a more neutrals kind of girl, so the purple will not work for me. I suppose the white might make a good eyebrow highlight, but I honestly haven't tried it. This will probably go to the 10 year old. However, I do love the fact they are 100% vegan, Cruelty Free, free of FD&C coloring, and free of parabens and petroleum. So, it is "clean" and that makes you feel good. Also, a portion (I don't know how much) of every sale from this company goes "to support clean water". I haven't done my research so I am not sure what that means...but it sounds good!
I was happy to see this included!! I was introduced to this exact product from another subscription box last month and I LOVE it! I use it everyday. I was so thrilled to see this in Ipsy this month!! Makes my supply last a little longer, and hopefully, for anyone else that hadn't known about it before, they will try it and fall in love like I did!
As much as I love Purlisse (and I DO!!), this little tin was the front runner for Ipsy this month. Purlisse is great, but having already been exposed to it before, it takes a second seat to this gem. This body balm is Amazing! The tin is only 2 oz, but it's great for on the go! A little goes a long way and it smells heavenly. Just. Heavenly. Use it on your cuticles, or elbows or knees or even your feet. Or use it on pulse points and drive your sweet-tooth having guy a little crazy. *wink*
Ipsy did a great job with this month's bag, and I am so looking forward to next month's!
Until next time,
XOXO
