BA Star

Do you remember a while back I did a review for y'all of BAStar cosmetics Mineral shadow?  Well they are having a HUGE 48 hour sale starting Tuesday November 26 and ending Thanksgiving morning at 6 am.

They will offer makeup, accessories, and bling for $2.99. It's like Black Friday without the fighting and no waiting in lines to check out. They also have other sales going on right now, I saw glitter head bands for $1.00! 

October's Ipsy Glambag - spoiler- It's amazing

It's that time again!! My October Ipsy Glambag is here. For those of you who haven't heard about Ispy before it is a monthly subscription service that delivers 4/5 full or deluxe sample sized products straight to your door for only $10.00 a month. I have not had a glambag disappointment me and this one did not disappoint either.

The theme this month is The Art of Beauty and this is what I got:

A full size Zoya polish in Mason which sells for $8.00 per bottle.I'm sure by now you can tell I love nail polish so this is perfect for me. Plus it's a purple shade......did they read my mind??

A .07 fl oz size of Buxom Full on Lip Polish in Dolly which is beautiful a shade of light pink.  Full size .15 fl oz sells for $19.00. I never heard of this product or this brand. I'm excited to try it. I can never have enough lip gloss either.

A deluxe size 1.7 fl oz sample of  Big Sexy Hair Blow Dry Gel full size sell for around $15.00. I liked the Big Sexy Hair Humidity spray that I got in one of my previous Ipsy bags so I have high expectations for this one!

A .34 fl oz size H2O Plus Face Oasis Hydrating Treatment, full size sell 1.7 fl oz for around  $36.00.

A deluxe size 2 fl oz Be Delectable Hand cream in Strawberry & Cream full 6 fl oz size sell for $10.00. They also have a full line of products to coordinate scents.

Lets see if I got my money's worth in this bag. If I would have purchased all of these full size products I would have spent a whopping $88.00. That's a huge savings even though they are not all full size. I still feel like I made out pretty good because I get to try all these goodies for only $10.00! I will do specialized reviews on any products I love or hate so stay tuned.

This bag is amazing every month I feel the bag is better than the previous month's glambag. If you want to sign up for Ipsy click here 

Smashbox Lip Enhancing Mega Gloss True Color

Hi, ladies back in September Smashbox Cosmetics had a Facebook contest where if you were one of the first so many people to answer three questions correctly you would win a full size product. They gave away a mascara, lip gloss, and primer. I was lucky enough to win the LipEnhancing Mega Gloss that sells for $19.00 on their website and is available in thirteen different colors. Costomers on the website give it a 5 of 5 star rating.

I hadn't been a fan of lip gloss but as with any freebie (or new product) I was super excited to try it.  It only took around four weeks once the contest ended for me to receive my package, I thought that was VERY good compared to other sites I that won freebies. When I got my package in the mail I was very impressed with the size and color of the lip gloss. The color I received was StarDom and I really like it. It is a shear shade that has lots of shine to it.

The applicator is a great size and helps deliver a smooth even application. I usually dip it in the bottle a second time to get enough for me.

 



 

 



 

 

 

 

A down fall to me which could be considered a plus to other people is it has little or no smell. I have since tried other lip glosses that smelled so good you could eat them, but this is not one.  A huge plus is the color I received can go with any make-up and can be worn at the office or for a night on the town. It can be used it alone for a glossy tint or over your favorite lip stick to give you a different look and a little bit of sparkle. Another thing I really liked is it has no taste and does not feel sticky like some glosses do and it stays on for a decent amount of time.  I truely like this this lip gloss over all I would give it an 8 out 10. When I run out I may purchase another but the price is a little steep for me.

This product was free with no conditions I decided to blog about it because I enjoyed wearing it and wanted to share my opinion.
