MM (Makeup Monday): Ipsy VS BirchBox

Hello to another Makeup Monday post! Sorry for my absence. I feel horrible! None the less, I present to you my monthly subscription. Ipsy and BirchBox.

 As usual, it comes in a cute little zip baggy. 

City Color Blush in Fresh Melon 
The color is not accurate however, it's a gorgeous blush! It's a pinky melon color,
and a great size. It's about the size of your palm! Totally worth it.


 J. Cat Beauty Eyelash
Includes eyelash adhesive. You can never go wrong with lashes!


 Mally Beauty Evercolor Waterproof Eyeliner in Starlight
My first Mally Beauty product, however, in my Ipsy bags, I always get a silver liner
and I can't seem to understand why. Every eyeliner I've gotten so far is silver, but hey,
it's a full size liner, I can't complain!

Pop Beauty Lipgloss in Peony Petal
Gorgeous color and perfect for Spring! It's a pinky color and applies like butter! 
It's .14 oz but it will definitely last me a long time!

Lastly, a Zoya polish.

Unfortunately, my battery conveniently died on me. However, this is a full size 
Zoya polish from the Naturel Collection. An Orchid Maroon color, and just
my cup of tea! This alone is $9. What do you think?

So onto Birch Box. 


I didn't even want to take photos but here is small decription. For the Smashbox Mascara, it was a deluxe mini. The OPI top coat was a mini as well. The Smashbox Palette was a piece of sample, on a paper. The Agave oil was a mini deluxe as well and barely enough to see if it made a difference with my hair. The Cleanser was a mini as well.

I have been really disappointed with Birch Box these past few months and finally decided to cancel. Hence the reason I didn't even waste my time taking pictures to show you.

So finally, Ipsy takes the cake. Like always. There have been some months that weren't so great but I am very happy over all. Both of these subscriptions are $10, but seriously, I'm really getting my money's worth with Ipsy, so gladly I cancalled Birch Box and will stay subscribed to Ipsy.

Are you ladies subscribed to these services at all? What do you think?

Sephora on Groupon


 

Right now, there is a Sephora Groupon deal going on! I literally just purchased it like 3 minutes ago so I had to share with you! Beware because this deal only available for the next day and 21 hours. So if you shop at Sephora often, definitely check it out.

The Deal
  • $5 for $10 worth of cosmetics, skincare, haircare, and fragrances
  • Can be used in store, online, via mobile devices, or at any Sephora inside JCPenney.
I love me some Sephora beauty goodies! Oh, and unfortunately, you can only purchase one. Otherwise, 10 of these babies would've been added to "My Groupon" tab. And if you would like, here is my Groupon Referral link, you don't have to use it though.

Also, Sephora is having a really good sale right now online! Check it out!

Happy shopping!

Makeup readers and/or giveaways (Suggestions)

So I currently have a 350 Followers Giveaway running right now and I have gotten a few comments stating that they would like to see some makeup giveaways.

As I first started out this blog, I intended it to be a personal-just-blog-whatever type of blog, but I ran into this polish blogging community and totally fell in love. With that said, as you may see, my blog is mainly devoted to nail polish. But I am wondering, how many makeup-junkie-lovers do I have reading this blog of mine?

How many of you would like to start seeing makeup reviews and/or my thoughts on certain products? That being said, this would be the only reason why I would consider giving away makeup products in the future. As it would be sort of awkward to giveaway makeup when my blog is not related to that area.

So readers, let me know what you think in the comment section below!

Thanks,
Anna
