Juice Beauty Hydrating Mist

I tried this out right as I pulled it out of the bag and simply didn't like it! I imagine a hydrating mist as a quick refreshing mist. Juice Beauty's Hydrating Mist was something else entirely. First, it took me more than a few tries to actually get the sample to spray. When it did, I got a giant spritz to the face, which seems to be the norm for this bottle. The "Mist" is very heavily perfumed, which as you guys know is not my thing. It left a very thick, noticeable feeling on my skin which I don't believe is the intention for these kinds of products. 

LA Fresh Makeup Remover Wipes

How did ipsy know I just ran out of face wipes?! I'm pretty excited to try these out. I'm sure they'll be on par with every other makeup remover wipes I've tried out. But I'll update this once I've tried them. 

Yaby eyeshadows in Seashell & Azalea Pearl

Eyeshadows! I love trying out new colors, especially from brands I haven't tried before, so I'm excited about the Yaby eyeshadows included in this month's bag! Seashell is a subtly shimmery white eyeshadow. Azalea Pearl is a hard color to describe! It's a medium-toned plum. 

**swatches to come!

GlamRX mini palette

I wasn't sure what this was until I saw some fan pictures on ipsy's facebook, haha. The GlamRX mini palette is great for storing those eyeshadows (or the Coastal Scents eyeshadows from previous ipsy bags). 

The bag:

The bag itself this month actually disappointed me. It is a lot flimsier than the previous bags I've received. You can see from the picture that there are loose seams throughout the edges of the zipper. It is such a cute bag that I wish it were higher quality. 

You can purchase an ipsy subscription {here}.

What did you think of this month's bag? Are you a fan of DIY palettes? Or do you prefer buying ready-made palettes with eyeshadows already included?
