September Ipsy 2013 - Classic Beauty

I received my Ipsy bag for September today. I was super eager to receive my bag because I knew what I was getting before I even  got my bag. Even knowing all that it didn't stop the thrill or the suspense when I was opening my bag.

Ipsy's infamous pink bubble mailer!

My fourth item is the NYX single shadow in Morocco.

Over all I think Ipsy did pretty decent this month. I know I didn't post last months bag because it came so late and I probably will not post it just because I feel like everyone has already seen last months bag. Like I was saying before I got off subject this months bag retails for a lot more $10 so I would highly suggest jumping on to the Ipsy band wagon if you haven't already.

 

The only odd thing that happend but I'm not complaining about is that I specifically said I don't like nail polish on my profile. But I guess that might have been why I received the polish. Ipsy tries to get you to try new things you haven't already tried in shades you probably wouldn't ever look at. That is why I think people would enjoy Ipsy. They are there to let you explore makeup without paying the expensive price tags. They're not there to give you makeup brands and colors that you already own. Ipsy for you to explore.

 

September Julep

I'm back with a Julep September box haul for you guys today! I actually really liked this months box from Julep. I was actually thinking about upgrading my box and just get the whole collection for this month but I decided not to and just "add on" the polish that I wanted. However, I was really interested in the cleansing oil but passed. Hopefully this month they will have it as an "add on" product so I can just get it with my reward points.

If you don't already know what Julep is...its a monthly subscription service for nail polishes for $19.99 a month. If you would like to sign up I will post a link below to their website. Enough of my yapping on to the polishes.

I like how they packaged this months box. Gold tissue paper with the IT GIRL sticker. Gorgeous!

This was the item underneath the little paper that you get every month.

This polish was my "add on" polish for $4.99. I think this polish is the one item I was most excited for.

This months packaging like is said was super cute and different. Or maybe it's just because I haven't picked my monthly box for a few months now. LOL. But like I said it's still cute.

The colors for this months IT GIRL box(left to right) Candice, Catrina, and Josephine. I can't wait to do my nails!
