Hello, hello!
Today I have my unboxing and first impressions on the June Ipsy GlamBag. The theme for this month is “Volume Up” – to fearlessly express yourself. All text in italics taken from the Ipsy website.
The bag design this month is a super cute, canvas bag. Let’s see what was inside:
Beaute Basics Travel Face Blender
- Streaky makeup is so not ok! This blending beauty helps you apply all your liquid and cream formulas like a boss—so your complexion looks airbrushed, filtered, and totes flawless.
- Brushes can be so tricky. We love how this super easy-to-use sponge gets all up in the hard-to-reach places (like the edge of your nose and inner corners of your eyes).
- This small wonder is great for travel, and the #millennialpink shade happens to look really cute in your makeup kit.
I actually needed to replace one of my makeup sponges, so this came at a perfect time. This travel face blender is a firmer, bouncier sponge than what I’m used to, but I’m sure that I can make it work.
Dr. Lili Fan Probiotic Recovery Cream
-
We already know that probiotics are good for our insides (that’s why we OD on yogurt, right?), but they’re also AMAZING for our skin. That’s why we’re super obsessed with this probiotic-infused moisturizing miracle cream!
-
It’s also made with ultra powerful peptides and Vitamin C, which brightens up dull skin and enhances natural collagen reproduction (AKA makes us look younger.)
- This stuff is legit. Aside from “skincare queen/anti-aging specialist”, Dr. Fan’s job titles ALSO include biochemist, microbiologist, and practicing ophthalmologist. NBD.
I haven’t tried this, but I did open it enough to smell it – it is highly scented, so I will be passing this onto someone who doesn’t mind using scented facial products. It is cruelty free though, which is awesome!
Make Up Forever Aqua XL Eye Pencil in M-10 Matte Black
-
The cutting-edge formula is insanely creamy, so it glides on like buttah with no tugging or dragging.
-
Because YOU draw the line, and YOU get to call the shots, this waterproof baby literally stays put until you decide it’s quitting time. (Just make sure you have some good makeup remover on deck!)
- Wanna try a blurred-out, rock n’ roll liner look? This perf pencil gives you plenty of time to smudge up your lines before it sets for good.
Another black eyeliner. Joy. I have enough black eyeliners to last a lifetime. I’ll be passing this onto someone who will use it.
Kokie Cosmetics Nail Polish in Atlantis at Last
-
Kokie is throwin’ some shade (the good kind!) with these shout-out-loud hues that scream volume UP!
-
Streaks and chips are for amateurs (and you are NOT an amateur)! This polish is SO opaque and chip-resistant that it looks and lasts just like a gel.
- Atlantis at Last is the ultimate eye-catching cobalt blue you’ll be seeing everywhere this summer.
This is a gorgeous bright cobalt blue, I plan on testing it out over the weekend to see how it wears. Kokie is a cruelty free brand!
Nyx Whipped Lip & Cheek Soufflé in Pink Cloud
-
This pretty little two-timer can be used on your lips AND cheeks—perfect for the matchy matchy monochromatic look we keep seeing everywhere!
-
The whipped formula is so featherlight that it feels like nothing (but looks like a million bucks).
-
We’re obsessed with how this yummy pop of color instantly brightens up our entire complexion.
- Pink Cloud is a warm pinky coral that’s perf for a lit-from-within flush.
This is really pretty. I love that it can be used for both lips and cheeks, I can’t wait to test it out this weekend. Nyx is cruelty free.
So there you have it – June’s Ipsy GlamBag. What do you think? Did you like your GlamBag this month?
Thanks for reading and have a beautiful day! ❤
Disclosure: I pay for this monthly subscription!
a brash attitude 
I like that color blue for the nail polish! I don’t have my Ipsy subscription anymore because I felt like I always got the worse stuff lol

Ooh we are close to being bag twins this month! 🙂 I didn’t get the makeup sponge, and my NYX color is Plush. Your shade looks better—mine just disappeared into my skin when I tried to rub it in. LOL.

Bag twins! 😂
That’s too bad that the Nyx colour doesn’t work for you.

I’ll try it on lips, but it seems like it’d be pointless as a blush if it just disappears.

Looks fun! I love the color of that lip gloss and I am always down for a good black eyeliner. I feel like I am always the last person to get mine… still waiting!

Some months mine comes early and other months quite late! This month I mine arrived before I got my shipping email!

Hey Cat would really like that bag design – the mouth! 😉
I’ve been reading about probiotics for skincare, it’s an interesting concept. The Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair uses probiotics – I’m still unsure about it.
Haha your comment about black liners – I’m sure some people would be thrilled but I am similar as you!
The nail polish you receive is so pretty!

Ugh. And i don’t even wear that much eyeliner! I’ve mostly been using the brownish one from a Urban Decay that came in the Urban Vices mini palette.
I’m super happy about that cobalt blue!
I’ve not read anything about probiotics in skincare, I’ll have to do some research. But the cream is was too scented, I’m not going to put it near my face!

The nail polish looks pretty. Such a shame it had to be a black liner, they have so many pretty colours they could have included instead x

I always get black liners. Every freebie or every beauty box and I never use it! The turquoise eyeliner looks really nice. I’d use it if I got a nice colour. X

Super awesome! You got a beauty sponge! And I always hate receiving black liners lol. Would have been better if they sent a colored one.
And I got the nyx whipped lip and cheek souffle in cocoa bean. It looks like a nude. However, I really love the shade you got as well. So pretty.

A coloured liner would have been nice! The beauty sponge is weird – it is so hard!
