Hey Guys,
Ipsy Glam Bag Plus May 2020 "Get That Glow"
I have heard of Nomad Cosmetics before but have never tried their products before. The colors in this palette looked really pretty. I had a hard time picking between this palette and the Coloured Raine palette for my choice for the month. I went with the Coloured Rain palette since I knew I was getting a Too Faced Bronzer in my BoxyCharm Premium this month. I decided that if I didn't end up getting this product in my box, I was going to buy it as an add on if it was available. Luckily, Ipsy really listens to my quizzes and included the face palette in my box. I was so pumped! I have already used this a couple of times now and I'm so impressed! The matte bronzer is a nice warm shade but not too warm. The shimmer bronzer can be used as a topper with a very light hand or as a highlight for someone with a darker skin tone. The lightest champagne highlighter is great for the inner corner and on the face and the more golden highlighter will work nice for me in the summer when I am tanner. All of the shades will also work well as highlighters. All the shades are super pigmented and blend so nicely in the skin!
Here is a close up of the shades:
I have also heard of Coloured Raine before but never tried their products. There were two palettes we could pick between this neutral palette and a purple toned palette. I went for the neutrals since that is mainly all I wear. Especially lately. These shadows are super buttery and blend really nice. The mattes are more buildable which I am fine with. The shimmers were great. I love that you can create a full look with this palette since it has transition and base shades as well as crease and lid shades.

I have wanted to try this product for quite a while. I have it saved in my favorites cart at Ulta. I'm happy to see that I was sent a neutral shade that I will actually wear. This is more of a mauve shade but still very wearable. I really like the formula. Its a little bit drying but nothing too serious. It is very pigmented and has more of a mousse-y formula. Ulta also sells a travel size of this as well if you don't want to commit to the full sized product.

Tarte Tarteist Lash Paint Mascara $23.00
I have already owned this mascara before. It's not my all time favorite mascara but I do like it. I like the brush on this mascara as it does a great job at grabbing all of your lashes at once and gives some nice volume.
MOTD Cosmetics Eye Got It 5 Piece Brush Set $34.00
I wasn't super excited to get more brushes because I just get way too many in my subscription boxes. However, I decided to give a few a try that I will actually use. The crease and pencil brushes are nice and work well. I will probably pass on the other ones that I know I won't use.

The products are discounted from normal price and you can get cash bag on the purchase. They also offer "Ipsy Offers"that are discounted beauty bundles from different brands. Lastly, you are allowed to add "Add Ons" to your Glam Bag Plus which are other items featured that month that are not part of your personal box. These items are heavily discounted. Lastly, they offer "Mystery Bags".
Overall, this was my favorite Ipsy Glam Bag Plus so far and probably one of my favorite subscription boxes I've ever received. I was so happy with every item that was sent to me this month. I feel like Ipsy really pays attention to your reviews and beauty quiz which I definitely appreciate it. I feel like BoxyCharm doesn't pay attention to them at all which is why I am highly considering cancelling that whole subscription. I am so impressed with the Coloured Raine Mimosa Palette and the Kiss Of Sun Palette. I also really like the Sugar Rush Sugar Coat Velvet Liquid Lipstick. The Tarteist Mascara is definitely something I will use and some of the brushes too. So I would definitely say this was a super successful month with Ipsy and I am so excited to see what the spoilers are for June!
Hey Guys,
Today I'm going to share my thoughts on my Ipsy Glam Bag Plus for May! For those of you unfamiliar with Ipsy Glam Bag, it is a monthly beauty subscription box. You receive 5 deluxe/sample sized products each month. The subscription is $12.00 a month and usually has a theme. They also offer an upgraded box every month called Ipsy Glam Bag Plus. This box is $25.00 a month and includes 5 FULL SIZED products. They also offer another box called Ipsy Ultimate which I believe was created to compete with BoxyLuxe. This box is $50.00 a month and includes 8 FULL SIZED products and 4 deluxe/sample sized products. I am currently only subscribed to Ipsy Glam Bag Plus. All subscriptions come with a makeup bag (different sizes per subscription type) and you are able to pick one product in your box (GBP & GBU). With Glam Bag you are able to pick two. You are also able to skip a month whenever you feel like which is a huge bonus offering.
The theme for May was "Ipsy Get That Glow". I was pretty excited about this box when I saw the spoilers and choice options. Keep reading to see what I got and to hear my thoughts. Also, make sure to check out the discount codes below for the month!
