It’s time for an Ipsy Glam Bag review! I finally got off the waitlist for Ipsy last month, but didn’t get last month’s bag in time to share everything without spamming the world with yet another Ipsy post. This month’s bag is late too but I don’t even care, I want to share for everyone who may not see reviews elsewhere! If you haven’t signed up for Ipsy, you definitely should. At only $10 a month (+ $4.95 shipping if you live in Canada which really isn’t that bad at all), I certainly look forward to this happy mail!
One of my favorite things this month was the bag itself. Last month was a cute little Rebecca Minkoff floral makeup bag that I have been using to stash in my backpack when I am going away for a weekend, and this month’s is perfect to keep my lipglosses and chapsticks organized in my handbag! I love the hot pink color and the scalloped edges.
First up in my July bag is this deluxe sample of Marrakesh Endz argan & hemp oil therapy. As I said in my Neutrogena post, I have been using argan oil pretty religiously lately, so while this wasn’t the most exciting product in the bag, I will definitely get good use out of it.
This was also something I wasn’t thrilled about getting in my bag, but will go to good use as this product is for my skin type AND contains SPF, so I’ll definitely be using it up.
I was excited for this one! This is Tints & Sass, a lip and cheek tint. I have never really tried out lip or cheek tints much, so I’m excited to use this. While I totally thought it would be red because of the bottle, it’s more of a berry tone. It’s really pretty! I love the color on my lips but I’m not sure how well I would suit it on my cheeks. It also smells super sweet and edible.. yum.
One of my favorite products I got was this deluxe eyeshadow sample of bareMinerals Ready Eyeshadow. I haven’t used it yet but I can already tell I’ll love the colors. I don’t have anything like this plum shade, so I’m excited to try it for a night out. I also love that the packaging gives me a little tutorial on how to create both a day and night look with these colors!
And the award for coolest packaging goes to….. BIG look mascara by pur! While I was a bit disappointed that I didn’t get Benefit’s They’re Real mascara in my bag (that is my #1 must have beauty product. Seriously, best mascara in existence for people with short lashes. I have literally been asked if I am wearing fake eyelashes before because it just makes my sucky little lashes SO long! And while we’re on the topic, I want to try the They’re Real Push Up Gel Liner SO bad too!), I am in love with the packaging of this so I have high hopes. I don’t use waterproof mascara often but I will definitely try this for next time I do.
Overall, I am again very happy with my bag for this month! I will definitely stay subscribed to Ipsy and I totally recommend that you sign up too if you like finding and trying out new beauty products (in decent sample sizes!).
Are you signed up for any beauty subscriptions?
Adrienne says
Everything you got looks great! Love the scalloped bag especially :)
Chelsea says
Isn’t it cute!

I so need to sign up for Ipsy! Everyone seems to love it.
Chelsea says
DO IT. It’s only ten bucks and you get new makeup! I love it :)
Neely says
You got a great bag! Loving the shadow!
Chelsea says
Isn’t it pretty? :)
Ashley Z. says
So cute!
Chelsea says
Right? :)
Ashliegh says
It looks like you received some awesome goodies in your Ipsy bag! I accidentally had mine sent to my other address and am dying to see whats in my bag! I also can’t wait to start using the scallop pink bag – it looks so adorable in the pictures!!
Chelsea says
Oh nooo! I bet you got some great things too :) Fingers crossed you got the Benefit mascara haha.
Jenna @ A Savory Feast says
I love that Ipsy sends cute bags too! That’s something that makes them stand out.
Chelsea says
Right? Not just in some wrapping you chuck away.
Chloe Logan says
Lip/cheek tints are my favorite because they’re so multi-purpose!

Chelsea says
Agreed! I want to get a bright pink one!
Christen Dobbs says
I have thought about Ipsy, but haven’t tried it yet. At $10 a month, I may go ahead and try this one. It definitely looks worth it. So glad you posted this!
Chelsea says
You should most definitely give it a try, at least just for a month to see if you like it. It’s only ten bucks! And it’s the best happy mail :)
Norah Loves Makeup says
That’s a lot of cute goodies in one bag!
Chelsea says
Sure is!
Kailei Pew says
So great! I especially love the eye shadow!
Chelsea says
I’m excited to try it!
Rachel says
I’m super jealous of the tint stain and the mascara! I was fairly happy with my bag though!
Chelsea says
Ooh did you do a post on yours? I want to see what you got!
Rachel says
Sadly I have not yet haha! I will hopefully be doing one this weekend :) I got the bareMinerals eyeshadow 4 in 1 which I do love!
Tammy Dalley says
Great products! Love the eyeshadow and the bag of course
Chelsea says
Isn’t the bag so cute!
MrDisco says
Did you know that sunscreen starts to slowly lose its effectiveness after the bottle has been opened?
Chelsea says
I didn’t know that actually! That is good to know because I often have a bunch of bottles open at once.
Krystal Caracol says
Great bag this month, I’m so envious that you got the eye shadows! That’s pretty awesome. I got one of their new BB cream shadows in my bag.
Chelsea says
Ooooh how is the cream shadow?
Krystal Caracol says
It’s nice, much more lightweight than I expected, and it lasts a pretty long time. Apparently it has brightening properties, not sure if that’s with extended wear or regular use.
Chelsea says
Oooh, I like the sounds of that! Does it crease easily? That’s what I find to be the most frustrating thing about cream shadows.
Victoria Sneden says
Nooooo I wanted that shadow duo so badly! Ha! I got the cream shadow instead, which is all fine and dandy except that I can’t apply cream shadows that have color for the life of me. The shade I got is kind of a muddy taupe, not the best! Your bag is drool-worthy. Lucky!
Chelsea says
Aww, I have never had much experience with cream shadows so I wouldn’t have minded to test that out, but at the same time the only times I’ve used cream shadow I found it creased SO quick!
Ann Marie DelFavero says
I love how the longer Ipsy is around the better and better their bags get. But I have to see you got a lot of better items than I did! LOL
Chelsea says
I’m glad to hear that because it makes me excited for more bags to come! Sorry you didn’t get that great of a bag this month though :(
kendall says
These boxes look awesome! I’m subbing to Glossy Box right now but this one looks wayy better!
Chelsea says
Get on Ipsy!! I have never tried Glossy box though haha.
Laura says
That bag! I’m such a sucker for bags!
Chelsea says
Me too, isn’t it cute? I’m definitely going to stash it in my purse!
Jenn @ hellorigby! says
The BareMinerals eyeshadow and the lip/cheek tint look great!
Chelsea says
I’m pretty excited about both!
Kath TheFabZilla says
You got some nice stuff there! I’m curious about that lip/cheek tint.
Chelsea says
I’m excited to get some more use out of it! I need to try it on my cheeks still :)
Ellen Christian says
I haven’t heard of this bag before but now I really want to try it. Love what you got!
Chelsea says
You should! It’s only ten bucks!
Ashley says
Looks like some great items!
Chelsea says
Sure is!
kristyn says
Totally love what you got in your bag~
Chelsea says
Agreed!
ashley says
I love it all. Especially the cute little bag!
Chelsea says
That’s definitely one of my fave things I got!
Ashley says
Love the eye shadow duo! I’m not signed up for any of these monthly gift services…I think I am too much of a control freak to receive things I don’t pick out, but the surprises seem fun!
Chelsea says
Hahah I love surprises!! And for ten bucks a month I can’t get too upset if I didn’t get a single thing I didn’t like (which def hasn’t happened yet)
Deidre says
Okay. I need to start getting these Ipsy bags. LOVE it.
Chelsea says
You should! It’s only ten bucks a month so def worth trying out :)
Lauren says
Thinking I need to sign up for this! Thanks for sharing girl :)
xoxo

Rebekah says
I loooove this months bag – it’s so different. You got some great stuff :D
Chelsea says
It was a good one!
Alice says
I love beauty boxes, we don’t get ipsy over here sadly though. looks like a great box! love the look of that mascara, ‘they’re real’ is my fave too, totally miss my false eyelashes which I used to have done religiously but this is the next best thing!
Chelsea says
Awww that sucks! Ipsy is the best! They’re Real is also the BEST ever. Glad we’re on the same team ;) Haha
twolittlepigsdownunder says
That bag is heaps cute :) looks like a decent haul!
Chelsea says
It sure was!
Betsy says
how am i just hearing about ipsy this month?! i love that they give you pro brands of cosmetics! i’m seriously considering signing up!
Chelsea says
Sign up! It’s only ten bucks so it’s not like you can regret spending a huge amount of $$ or anything. I love it!
Carly Anderson says
It looks like you got some pretty cool products this month! That bag is super cute with the scalloped edges!
Chelsea says
Isn’t it? :)
Cam | Bibs and Baubles says
I agree with you. That bag is super cute. I’d love to try that mascara too. It’s the only other makeup I seem to deal with beyond lip gloss. I’m such a plain girl. LOL!
Chelsea says
Haha there is nothing wrong with mascara and lipgloss! In fact I think that is the perfect daytime look :)
Hima says
I love the pretty bag too! The eyeshadow colors are gorgeous :)
xo, Hima
Hima Hearts
Chelsea says
Aren’t they! I’m excited to give them a test run!

I love the cute little pink bag! Awesome.
Chelsea says
Pretty hey!
Jess says
Love the little pouch and the look of the mascara! So fun!
Jessica Doll says
I want to try the push-up liner too! I’ve heard mixed reviews.
Kelly Chang says
Omg that mascara packaging is to die for! Thanks for the review on your glam bag! I’m really tempted to try out the tint on my own now :)
Bev says
I would love to try the bareMinerals Ready Eyeshadow!
Beth Jenkins says
I have been wanting to sign up for Ipsy for a while! I love that each one comes with a bag!
Cassie @ Southeast by Midwest says
I wanted the little eye shadow quad! I got the cream eye shadow instead lol.
Alexia H. says
I love reading about new beauty boxes (bags) and I’m glad that Ipsy ships to Canada!
Natalie Brown says
I’ve been receiving Ipsy for a few months now and usually love the products I get. This month though I was a bit disappointed. I received mostly skincare items. I wish I had gotten the eye shadow you received. lol It’s usually so good that I’m not overly upset about it. I loved the pink bag!
