January 2015 "Fresh Start" iPsy Bag Worth The $10.00?


Welcome 2015!!!!!

To another year of iPsy's Glam Bag! So what did iPsy bring in the new year with?  A two toned, textured bag filled with goodies.  So lets dive in!




I'm actually liking this months bag.  As far as the shape goes, its one of iPsy's standard bags.  It's the creativity of the bag that I fell in love with.  One side was a navy blue and the other side was white with a weave like texture and a coral zipper.  I will most defiantly be using this to place my makeup on the go in.



Full size Hikari eyeliner 0.2 g in the shade "Storm" retails for $13.00 at the Hikari website.  It appears that the color is a grey tone.  I am not going to open or swatch this item, since I have an endless amount of eyeliners.  I will be gifting this product to another makeup lover LOL.  I do appreciate the eyeliner, just at this moment I don't have a use for it.


Full size Malin + Goetz "Mojito lip balm" 0.20 oz.  This retails for $12.00 at the Malin + Goets website.  I like this item but I am surly not loving it.  I find to be soothing to my extremely chapped lips.  I just don't care for the vaseline feeling.  With the name being "Mojito lip balm" I was expecting it to smell and taste like a mojito.  This did not smell nor taste like a mojito.  I'm not mad, but a tiny bit disappointed.  More then anything I fell misled LOL.  I will use this and keep it at my desk.




Full size Pacifica natural mineral coconut eye shadow 0.08 oz in the shade "Treasure."  Apparently these are not sold online as single eyeshadows.  I thought I have seen single pan eyeshades sold in store at Target, but don't quote me on that.  As far as its value, I don't have an answer.  The link provided by tipsy sends me to Pacifica's website where only palette are available.  I am liking the eyeshadow very much.  I am diggen the size.  This color has multiple purposes for me.  If used with a large fluffy brush this make a great body bronzer with shimmer for summer or evening events when I want to glow.  As far as an eyeshadow, it's great.  I am really liking this.



Sample size Manna Kadar Cosmetics "Sheer Glow" 0.27 oz.  Full size retails for $29.00 at Manna Kadar Cosmetics website.  It does not specify on the website how much product is in a full size container.  I find that to be a little upsetting.  The tube states that this is "Sheer Glow Shimmer Lotion" on the website no where did I find "shimmer lotion."  As far as lotions go, this is not a lotion in my opinion.  This is like a skin luminizer.  I wish I received a larger one, like full size LOL.  It's a great product.  This is very subtle.  I like how it gives the skin a hint of radiance with out that POW!  of "I'm a Cullen in the sun," if you know what I mean LOL.  It suggest to mix with lotions, mix with foundations or use as a highlighter.  I agree and disagree all at the same time.  I would not mix this with a lotion.  I would place this on top of my already applied lotion.  It's so subtle that I feel when mixed, it would be lost and too diluted.  I would mix this with foundation.  Even to bring radiance to a matte foundation.  As far as highlight, it's so subtle that I feel that there are better highlights out there that would do a better job.  In the end I really like this,but find it has a steep price for what I'd use it for.


Full size 0.5 oz of Eco-Beauty "Good day. day moisturizer" retails for $13.99 at LA Fresh website. I like this, but this has a slight scent to it that I don't find appealing.  It wears nicely and found it hydrating to the skin. I just did not love it. 

In the end was it worth the $10.00?  Yes, this was another great bag from iPsy.  Almost everything in this bag was full size.  This bag totaled $38.99 worth of product not including Pacifica or Manna Kadar Cosmetics.  I enjoyed trying the products and getting a chance to share my experience on my blog.
