Ipsy: September

This is my September Ipsy Bag!  Apparently the theme was "Like a Boss," and I can really see that coming out in the black studded style of the bag.  I like that they are theming things a bit more these days!

First, I received the individual eyeshadow pan from Elizabeth Mott Pop! cosmetics in the color Gunmetal.  I've been trying to flesh out my Z-palette recently so I pick it up to use more often, and this was a really nice addition (though sadly, it was not magnetized).  I used to be upset with individual pan eyeshadows, but now they are right up my ally!  This is a nice shimmery basic grey.

This is the Lights Camera Lashes Mascara by Tarte.  This is actually one of the first products I've ever received from Ipsy that I already owned.  I keep one in my makeup collection at college and the other at home I love it so much.  Therefore, this obviously would have been a hit, if I didn't already own it!  But they had no way of knowing that.

This is the Rep Bio Fresh Face Mask.  As I've said before, I'm not into the whole sheet mask trend, so I'm always happy to get a cream mask instead.  This is made with calming herbs and as a very neutral smell.  It is nice and creamy and moisturizing, which my kin has really needed recently.  I have used it a few times now and it has been super enjoyable!

This is the Smashbox Photo Finish Radiance primer.  I was kinda turned off by this at first because I tend to have oily skin and I definitely don't want shimmer all over it!  But then on a whim I tried it along my cheekbones as a highlighter and it is BOMB!  With this you can get such a dramatic highlight for the nights you really want something extra.  Since I figured that little trick out I have fallen in love. 

This is the Teeez Lipstick in Romantic Red.  I hadn't ever heard of this brand, which is always kind of disappointing to me because I subscribe to Ipsy for the high end products.  That said, I love this packaging, and this is a really nice matte red color.  I always tell them on the surveys that I am really into lipstick, so I can't blame them for sending me shades I may already own!

My Petal Club

A new box!  And a PERIOD subscription box at that!  I love finding new boxes to try out, especially when they are this affordable!  This box is normally $6.99 per month, but if you use the discount code "SUMMER" on mypetalclub.com , this box will be only $3.50!  And let's be honest, one box of pads/tampons is usually more expensive than that, so why not give it a try?? So this box primarily consists of just the period products with very few extras.  This isn't one of the present, feel-good kind of boxes, it just provides you with the necessary products to get through the month, at an affordable price. Step One The first thing you do on their website is choose the combination of products you will need.  Be warned, you aren't given as much of a selection if you order through Cratejoy like I did.  It worked totally fine and I still got the products I needed, but I like choice!  So I suggest going straight through their website....

Popsugar: December

I am honestly way too excited about this box!  For Christmas my parents ordered me a three month subscription of Popsugar when it was on sale around Black Friday and I am thrilled!  We got a three month subscription for $20 per box, plus a free gift!     For the amount of stuff in one of these boxes, I think it is definitely worth it!   Everything in this box was so well packaged, I was very impressed!  It was lined with bubble wrap and paper, and then everything inside was in its own box/packaging or wrapped in bubble wrap! And Happiness Delivered... too cute! The first thing I pulled out was this Baublebar pendent.  It is a long silver necklace with a circle pendent that is half white and half silver.  It is called the Snowfall Pendent and is apparently a Popsugar exclusive!  I have been looking for a new long necklace, so this was fun to receive!  The suggested retail is $28. This is the Sisters' Gourmet Baker...

Nadine West: Third Shipment

Another Nadine West bag!  This is such a fun little bag, and I have really looked forward to every one thus far! These are the Simple Sparkles "diamond" stud earrings.  Though these are very cute and I actually kinda wanted to keep them, I have too many pair that are too similar.  These did retail for $6.49 though, which is suuuuper reasonable. This is the Make a Wish necklace.  I wanted to like this based off of the name, but it just really isn't my style!  I don't feel like I can pull off a crown necklace/princess persona...  But anyway, this retails for $17.99, which I feel is a bit much for cheap jewelry. This is the Constance top.  It is like a baby pink chevron cami, and I wasn't into this really.  I have enough camis, and am not really into printed ones, so this just wasn't my style.  This retailed for $9.49, which isn't too bad Fianlly, we have the Zipped floral romper, and as you might have guessed it has a zipp...
