ipsy - June 2013

Subscription purchased by me, affiliate links within post

This month's theme is "On the Wild Side." I thought the theme was a bit odd, until I took a look at what came in the bag. Most, if not all, are items or techniques that I have shied away from. Though I expected something totally different from the theme, these items do fit the theme. Take a look at June's ipsy bag!

{In this month's bag}:
NYX cream blush in "Hot Pink"
J.Cat Beauty Sparkling Cream Palette in "Suzie"
Cailyn gel eyeliner in "Purple"
Starlooks lip pencil in "Tickle Me Pink"
Psssst! Instant Dry Shampoo

NYX cream blush in "Hot Pink"

I don't own many cream blushes, so I was very excited to receive this super HOT pink blush! I tend to use cream blushes as a base during Summer to help keep my powder blushes from sliding off my face. I'm not sure how often I'll use this bright color, but I'll be sure to attempt a look soon!

J.Cat Beauty Sparkling Cream Palette in "Suzie"

I definitely don't own anything similar to this glittery palette! I'm a bit more iffy on how many uses I'll get out of this one, but who knows? Maybe I'll end up loving it. I've never experimented much with glitter before. 

This palette contains quite a few colors:

-Copper

-Strawberry Red

-Gold

-Yellow-gold

-Bronze

Cailyn gel eyeliner in "Purple"

I received the gel liner in "Purple," which is like a dark, eggplant color. The Cailyn gel eyeliner comes with a small brush attached to the gel liner container. I've actually never tried anything like this, so I'm interested to see how well it turns out. 

Starlooks lip pencil in "Tickle Me Pink"

It matches the blush, haha. 

Psssst! Instant Dry Shampoo

This is the very first dry shampoo I ever tried. It actually brings back bittersweet memories for me. My brother (who passed away last year) and my dad used up my entire bottle in one day, thinking it was hairspray.

The bag:

I really like this month's bag! Lime green and cheetah print are not two things I would have paired together, but they work so well for a cute bag. I might have to replace my current carry-all.
