February 2013 Ipsy Bag Review
Next are the Lash Cards. These are cards that are supposed to help not get smudges of mascara on your upper and lower lids.This pack has 4 samples with a small size on one side and a large on the other for different eye shapes. These retail for these are $6.99 a pack at http://www.lashcard.com/shop/the-lash-card/?gg and with coupon code ipsy22 you can get buy 2 get 1 free lash cards. I found that these were a little tricky to use but they did help with not getting smudges on your eyelids If you always get makeup on your lids this products is defiantly for you.
Next I pulled out Pop Beauty Mascara in Lash Kapow. This is also sample sized and retails for $18.50. You can get this product http://www.popbeauty.co.uk/Popbeauty_Products/Eyes/Smokey_Lash_Kapow/ and get 20% off with code Ipsypop! UPDATE: I do NOT recommend this mascara. It doesn't hold curl, doesn't create volume and doesn't last all day. Its smudges.
Then I pulled out the Mica Beauty Gel Liner in Black. This seems to be full sized which is great since it retails at $30!!!! You can get it here http://www.micabeauty.com/gel-eyeliner.html/?gg and with the promo code Ipsy you can get 30% off and it comes with an applicator if you buy it online. I put this on this morning with an angled liner brush and it glides on sooooo smoothly and lasted all day with no clumping or smearing. I love it and highly recommend it!
Lastly I pulled out the Coastal Scents sample eyeshadow palette I got the one with the yellows and olives. I expected this to be bigger but a little eye shadow goes a long way. I have yet to try this but I am thinking of making a beauty look involving it. You can get the palettes here http://www.coastalscents.com/?gggg and with the promo code ipsy25 you get 25% off!
Overall I rate this bag C+. I am defiantly going to try and use all the products on the regular but there wasn't a "POW" item that makes it stand out and that I was excited to try. In January's bad my POW item was the oil. The samples were tiny but it retails for over $30 so it is still a great bargain!

Feb. Bath and Body Works Haul
Hello Lovelies! Just wanted to post a quick write up and video about the products I just received from BBW. I had some left over gift cards from Christmas and online had free shipping plus 20% off so I had to take advantage of the sale!
I will write an updated post of my reviews after I have used these products for a bit. Feel free to comment and ask questions.
The first product is from the True Blue Spa line and its the Pumpkin renewing face mask. It retails for about $12. I have used other products and masks from the True Blue Spa line and love them so hopefully I will love this. It smells amazing like a fall day and it is supposed to sweep away dead skin cells while smoothing and refining skins appearance. UPDATE: I just used this and my skin is so smooth and glowing! The smell when I put it on was a bit harsh but when I rinsed it away it didn't leave behind alot so that is nice.
Next I am trying the True Blue Spa blue green algae anti cellulite firming lotion. I have been using a Nivea lotion for a while but I heard great reviews of this product for BBW so I wanted to try it out so I can be bikini ready and help you guys be ready as well! It retails for $12-$15. It says you see results in 4 weeks if you use it twice a day and full results in 6 weeks with continuous use so I am hopefully stay on the routine of using it to let you guys know!
Next i got Flawless Gold 24k shimmer powder spray in the scent of Japanese Cherry Blossom. It is just a shimmer spray for your face and hair. I want it for when I got out so I am hoping it gives me a light dusting of shimmer but not to heavy.
Finally I got a free travel sized lotion of Be Enchanted which is my favorite scent at the moment and the lotion is always amazing :)
