Ipsy June 2013 - On The Wild Side

I received my June 2013 Ipsy bag yesterday but I didn't have the chance to post as I was out fishing and swimming with my family so here it is a day late. I've been on the fence about Ipsy lately so I think if the next few bags aren't as good then I may just unsubscribe. But anyways on to the bag.

THE PINK BUBBLE MAILER

The cutest bag ever! The theme for this months bag was On The Wild Side.
First item in the bag was a full size NYX Cream Blush. The color I received is in the color Rose Petal number CB01. It is a mauve pinky/rose color with the slightest orange under tone. I already have many colors that look like this so my sister-in-law and I will be swapping as she received the color Orange in her bag. It is a color that I do not own so I was excited she was willing to trade and I can not wait to get my hands on it and try the color out!
Item number two that I found in my bag was the J.Cat Eyelashes + Eyelash Glue. These are in the number EL600. On the packaging it states that the lashes are 100% human hair and the glue that is included are latex free. Thumbs up to that because I find any glue with latex it doesn't ever hold my false lashes that long.
Next up is the J.Cat Sparkling Creme Palette in the color SCP106 Volta. I don't wear dark shadows that much so my sister-in-law and I have decided to swap palettes. She likes to wear dark shadows while I like to wear neutral shades so it was great we got the two different color palettes.
Last two items are the Starlooks lip liner in the color K337 Tipsy. This was the most common color for the lip liners but I'm glad I received this one as it is a neutral pinky every day color. Pictured below the lip liner is the Chella Ivor Lace Highlighter.  Honestly I'm not really excited about this as I can just use a shadow to take the place of this pencil. Both of these pencils do not twist up so they will need to be sharpened for those of you who are curious about them.

That is all I received in this month Ipsy bag. I hope you guys enjoyed this post and I will be back with a tutorial really soon. See you next time!

Mirabella Lipstick in Daydream Review

I received this lipstick in my May Ipsy bag and I have been loving it! If you don't know what Ipys is I will link it at the bottom of this post.
As you can see the Mirabella lipsticks packaging is very sleek and very well made.
Trying to get the true color of this lipstick was a pain. Finally after a few minutes I got it at a perfect angle and caught almost the true color of this lipstick. Daydream is a really pretty dusty rose color with blue shimmers. It's not as purple toned as shown in the photo but more of a baby doll pink.
This lipstick is very glossy and as stated on the lipstick it is sheer. However, it is buildable. As you can see on the above photo that the top swatch is rather sheer. The top swatch was just two swipes of the lipstick. On the bottom as you can see it is more opaque and shows the true color of the lipstick. No matter how many times I took the photo the sparkles just would not get picked up on the camera but there are blue shimmers that do transfer from the lipstick to your lips.

I like that this lipstick doesn't feel gritty like most lipsticks that have shimmers in them. Which is a plus. The color and the sheerness and the buidability  is another pro to these lipsticks and I will probably be repurchasing this color along with other colors from this line.

NOTD - Check Me Out + Sienna

I did my nails this past weekend and I've been waiting to do this post as I wanted to see how long the nail polish would last. Honestly, I was not blown away by the results but I love the colors and the design none the less.



The design on my ring and thumb fingers where just an epic fail at doing a fishnet design. I do like the way it ended up looking but I think I would have just preferred to have been successful at the fishnet design.
The main nail polish that I painted on all of my nails was the Loreal color in number103 Check Me Out.
 On my accent nails I used the Julep color in Sienna.
