Ok, mega post time. I didn't realize I was this far behind with Ipsy. Gees. I could've sworn I posted about September. Oh, well. Here we go...
-----------------------------
September's theme was classic beauty. What classic beauty inspires you?
Elizabeth Mott | It's So Big Volumizing Mascara
$19.99
NYX | Single Eye Shadow
$5
They don't have this palette on their website, so my guess that this size would be about $5 like the round ones.
Starlooks | Obsidian Kohl Eye Pencil
$12
J.Cat Beauty | Fantabulous Lipstick
$2.99
Victoria Jackson | Taupe Brow Pencil
$14.95
I don't know how they do it, but I had quite a few full sized or almost full sized items this time. It was a really good bag. Nothing that I'm interested in really, but I was able to gift a lot of these products.
October was about the art of beauty. Beauty is subjective. Art is subjective. We find beauty in art and art in beauty. It all depends on what you think of as beauty. Everyone has a unique definition of beauty.

Good bag for October even if it was only four items. It's still worth it. I was able to gift a few things here as well. I do like it when I get facial wipes, because I use those after a work out. Those are pretty handy.
Onto November... Glam it up!

I really liked November's bag because of the variety. I loved the Nailtini color as well. I was lucky to get caviar instead of the other, Champagne, which I thought wouldn't look good on me. The lipstick is very light too. Hardly noticeable. Great picks for November.
December's rounds the end of the year off with celebration and celebratory looks for the season.

I was somewhat bummed out, because I got some items that I'm not really sure what to do with. There are a lot of good stuff here, but my beauty routine is very minimal. Since it is Christmas time, I realized I could gift them. It works out after all.
