Ipsy: March Throwback

First of all, this is one of the cuuuutest bag I've gotten in a while!
This bag was probably about 50/50 on how I liked the actual products I received, but keep reading for a cool surprise in the end!

This is the NYX Liquid Suede lipstick and I really enjoyed it! I was wary of this color when I first pulled it out, but after putting it on I found out that it was really pretty!!  It dries very matte, and lasts quite a while. 

This is a really pretty eyeshadow, it is the brand Manna Kadar in the color Fantasy.  It is a pretty basic color and the packaging is kind of cheap, but it is a nice full size, so I'm not mad at it!

I never wear my hair straight three days in a row... This is a nice product from Marc Anthony again, and it smells good, it just isn't something I will use often.

This is the Pixie blush and highlighter duo in rose gold, and it was sooooo pretty!  And then it fell off my sink and instantly broke on the edge.  And then it happened again and completely shattered.  I can't tell you how upset I am because it was gorgeous, but just way way too soft...

Another nice eyechadow brush, this time from Beau Gachis, that I actually used with the highlighter in this bag, until I broke it that is...

So if you review your products after receiving them from Ipsy, you get points!  With these points you can then "buy" different products and essentially get bonus products for free!  In this bag I used up my points to get a Beaute Basics eyeshadow pencil in Sahara Gold, a Selfie 2 hour self tanner, and the Smashbox Photo Finish Primer Water!  The Primer Water was by far my favorite out of these products, and it can be used as a primer or finishing spray, which is how I used it.

Governor's School!

Well, you would never believe what I have been up to all Summer! I just got back from Governor's school! Which was an adventure in itself...  if you don't know what Governor's School is, it is a special academic program for 5 and 1/2 weeks, for "the best and the brightest" in the state of NC, and I was very honored that I received the invitation to attend! I went for English, so I had one class that discussed Fact vs. Fiction, and another that focused on Creative Writing. I also had an Area II class that focused on Philosophy and Politics, and an Area III class that focused on your beliefs and feelings. Basically, it was a very modern and informal type of school, 6 days a week, and whenever I wasn't in class they kept us extremely busy with performances and seminars!  So as usual, I apologize... I should have posted at some point, but I did not, and there isn't much we can do about it now, so I am very sorry! How about a little peek into wha...
