Ipsy Quick Look: July 'Beach Beauty' Glam Bag

My bag contents this month:

• COOLA Mineral Face SPF 20 Unscented Moisturizer - .23 fl oz / 7ml
• Nailtini Nail Lacquer in 'Mai Tai' - 15ml / .5 fl oz
• POP Beauty Pouty Pop Crayon in 'Coral Crush' - 3g / 0.1 oz
• BH Cosmetics California Collection - 3 sample eyeshadows
• Sexy Hair Soy Renewal Beach Spray - 1.7 fl oz / 50ml

Overall, I'm pretty happy with the majority of the samples I received this month. To sum things up... I've fallen in love with the beach spray (it smells divine and gives my hair the added texture/volume it so desperately needs). I'm thrilled to have received the coral lip crayon this month - I had my fingers crossed for it! Sunscreen is always welcome here, and I'm really quite pleased that it's mineral, organic and cruelty-free! The nail polish isn't really my thing - I'm already a Zoya addict and hardly stray from what I already know and love. ;) The California Collection sample eyeshadows were a bit of a let down - absolutely gorgeous, but they are sheer and it takes a lot of effort to build up the color.

Swatches:

(BH Cosmetics Hollywood, San Francisco, and Malibu are swatched over Tick:Tock Cosmetics Infinity Eye Shadow Base in 'Milky Way' and POP Beauty Pouty Pop Crayon in Coral Crush is swatched over bare skin.)

P.S. ...Woops! I almost forgot to mention - I received a sneak peek e-mail today! It looks as though some lucky subscribers will be receiving an Urban Decay lipstick sample next month (click to enlarge the photo):

*This is likely not a guaranteed sample for all subscribers & there is a current waitlist for new subscribers. Signing up now may be your best shot at being taken off the wait list in time for the August Glam Bag, just a heads up! <3

Ipsy is a beauty subscription service. For $10 a month (free shipping within the U.S.), you will receive 4-5 deluxe or full-size beauty products in a 'glam' (cosmetic) bag. You may cancel your subscription at any time (unless, of course, you sign up for a yearly subscription). Ipsy is currently working on their referral program (when two people use your specific referral link to sign up for the monthly glam bag, you will receive a bonus item in your next glam bag) and allows you to give feedback on the products you receive each month so that they can better match you to more relevant products in the future.

Thank you for viewing! <3
