January 2013 ipsy glambag

This month's glambag theme is "a true star will always shine". I expected a cute makeup bag to switch out my current one, but was quite disappointed when I saw the plain black bag.
This month includes the following items:

•soho eyeliner brush
•josie maran 100% pure argan oil
•sexyhair big sexy hair spray
•nailtini nail polish in bloody Mary
•pacifica tusan blood orange body butter

My favorite product this month has to be the nailtini polish. I have been so busy recently, my nails have been bare for a few good months already. I'm so excited to use this new polish and knowing the quality of my previous nailtini polish, I just know I'm going to love this one as well.

Can't believe its almost 3 weeks in the new year already! Definitely need to step up and work on the plans that I have for 2013!

Ciao!
January Ipsy Glambag
pacifica tusan blood orange body butter: smells amazing
josie maran 100% pure argan oil
soho eyeliner brush: I like the quality of these soho brushes but I always think they are too big for me. This eyeliner brush does not create a line that is as good as my other eyeliner brush, but this is good for an angled shadow look.
sexyhair big sexy hair spray: it holds my hair up... for like 30 minutes, before my hair gets weight down by the grease from excessively washing, haha. Not the spray's fault tho!
nailtini nail polish in bloody Mary: Love love love this! Such a beautiful red color! Just perfect for Chinese New Year. I will post up a picture of this polish on my nails.

Ipsy- December glambag

The December glambag came in earlier than I thought this month. But I was so busy with work, I didn't have the time to post up a review.

This month's bag includes...

•urban decay- 24/7 glide-on eye pencil (in zero)
•Mai couture- highlighter papier
•Mirabella- prime for face & eye
•NYX- loose pearl shadow (in mocha pearl)
•bombshell- hot mess lip gloss

All of these products are amazing. Especially urban decay's eye pencil. I actually already own one in black already and I cannot express enough how much I love that product. It's just so good!

The bombshell lipgloss is also a perfect color. I have always wanted a bright red lipgloss and just happened to never got one until now. I'm planning to wear this next time!

The highlighter paper is interesting too. It just makes highlighting so much easier.

Keep up with the good work, ipsy!

November- ipsy- MyGlam: party perfect

Hey all!

The long-waited November glambag arrived a while ago but I was so busy with life, I didn't have a chance for me to post the pictures up!

Another month and another great bag!

This month's bag includes the following 5 awesome products.
  • •theBalm: meet matt(e) eyeshadow palette, in black
  • •Starlet: intense eyeliner, in black
  • •Nailtini: Nail Lacquer in Millionaire
  • •bareMinerals: Marvelous Moxie Lipgloss, in DareDevil
  • •Chella: Defining eyebrow gel

Some people may have recieved the Benefit they're real beyond mascara. I have seen quite an amount of complains saying that they don't want the eyebrow gel, but in fact, I love the eyebrow gel and don't mind trying a new product!

I love the lipgloss from the bareMinerals. It's a dark berry color and it gives a very sexy mature look. The eyeshadow is in very good quality... I mean, it's a product of theBalm, duhh! Haha.

Can't wait for the December bag!

Another end of another year and I wonder what I have achieved. Hmm... I got promoted, took an exam and failed it, spoke my mind for one last time, fallen sick, struggled through personal problems, went through and still going through family crisis, etc. Compared to last year, I'm not sure which year is more difficult. 2011 was at least good for the first half, and 2012 has pretty much been down, down, and down, well, one or two ups from here and there. Now all that I hope for 2013 is to cure this neuropathic pain in my head and simply just be a little bit happier and a little less tears than now.

October ipsy (former MyGlam)- glambag review- hello, bombshell

I thought I wasn't going to receive my bag until next Tuesday but seems like life does want to give me a break so when I came home from hanging out with my bestie (1st time in 4, 5 months), I saw this beautiful hot pink envelope sitting in my living room, and I instantly cheer up.

This month's bag continues with the MyGlam awesomeness.

This month's awesome bag include 5 different products.

•the Balm- what's your type? "the body builder" mascara
I have used the Balm's products before and I'm excited to try this one out. I have heard reviews saying that this mascara does not hold curls (which is very bad for Asian lashes because that weights down our lashes).

•minernesse.com- lip bomb glossy lacquer stain in red
Another lip product from MyGlam. Not exactly the color I want but it's a nice color. I wanted the dark red color (knowing it's this season's trend) but this lovely one is quite awesome. Good for a long day out.

•couture colour pequi oil treatment
Hair product makes my mom happy! Another product for my mom to try out!

•coastal scrents- eye shadow
Not so sure how to use the yellow shadow without looking like a clown... The other 3 colors are greenish color in different tones, not my color either. I have dark brown eyes and I don't think green (and yellow) compliment my eyes...

•be a bombshell- eye liner
This eyeliner is amazing! Love it, love it, love it! It lasts for the whole day without any smudges (usually my eye corners would smudge the eyeliner there). Though, the eyeliner tip is a little big, so gotta be extra careful with narrow corners (I have deep double eyelids, so I have to be extra careful with my inner corners.

Oh, and how can I forget about the cute makeup bag that I received as well? Very cute bag and also very nice materials!

Keep it up, MyGlam. Though not all of this month's products are the perfect fit or right color for me, for 10 dollars, this is still quite awesome!
