Ipsy November Reviews

So i have had some time to review the products i got in the November Glam Bag from Ipsy  and there are some Hits and Misses I have discovered ….
So lets get into this..  These are my honest opinions and not everyone will feel the same way but this is how the products worked for me ..
I will be rating them with Stars
*****SmashBox Mascara –  This was just a small trial size with a lot of product  Which is awesome ….  I Normally would  first use my Go to Base which is  Revlon Get up and Grow lash mascara but since I wanted to get a 1st impression I did not .   I have Sparse Blonde Non -Existent lashes that point downward so of course I used my lash curler,  now upon opening the tube my first impression is  The mascara wand is big, Dark Black .. The mascara is a wet formula but it dries fast So You can build up to the perfect coverage  .  I had to coat my lashes twice . Not only did it darken my blonde lashes but it seemed to get the ones that were hiding . This is great for Volume as well as length No Clumping or Smudging or with so many mascara's i have tried. This one does not Flake  I could even use this on my lower lash line and it stayed put .
 I will be purchasing a Full size when empty . The price is $20 for a 0.38 oz and  it does the job ..  This is the look I got with this mascara  . It makes my eyes look Huge and my lashes Dark.

***Beaute Basics – Sahara Gold Eye Crayon
Now this is a beautiful color and a very thick crayon my only problem is it smudges . I used this as a eyeshadow base  and the inner corner of eyelid to give it a lil pop of color . I found that through the day it did slide right off the inner corner but as far as the eyeshadow i put on top it did last for a couple of hours so not a bad product.
 I will use it throughout my makeup looks but i don’t think i would repurchase again .
*****China Glaze Nail Polish – Travel in Colour 20151125_205335-1[1]

(This is what my daughter came up with sorry it's a few days into the polish) - The color is Sally Hansen’s Wine Stock and Travel in Colour  which made the nails look Purple .)
Now there isn’t anything bad i could say about this polish brand i am already a china Glaze fan so i love them all . This was a goldish glitter polish that would be great for a top coat on any color .

****Crown Brushes- Pointed  crease brush –
This brush is soft and flexible and packs on the shadow right in the crease . It is easy to Blend and with my hooded eyes it is perfect .. The price point is good  at $7.43 and works great .
The  website for a peek  is  Crownbrushes.com

Next is a skin Care item
**** LeeAnni Eco- Go Away Gloomy Day – This is a facial serum and what it does is boost the skins healthy glow . It takes the dry dull look of the skin away . The product was nice and cooling and with my sensitive skin and Lupus Rash. The Ingredients are great all Natural  it has Rosehip oil for anti-aging ,Photo-aging and scar treatments and Tea Tree oil helps with acne ,psoriasis and eczema.  I had to try it out for a few days to see if I had any side effects and none so far But time will tell.  Price point is $ 29.98  for a 1.0 fl oz .
 A full list of Ingredients can be found on theWebsite  Leeanni.com
Overall The products in the bag were good and I am excited to see what next month’s bag has to offer
Thanks for reading and until next time ,
Love ya ,

Life 2020-2021 Getting back into this.

  So as the whole world has struggled with the pandemic it's an understatement as to how I have been, my kids and, my husband. I am not going to lie and say that it didn't affect me in an immense way  I went down a severe hole into depression and, let's just say my mental health was a nightmare  I wanted to die and, just didn't have the strength to do it myself so I would lay in bed and, starve myself hoping I wouldn't wake up the next time. The real struggle came at night because of my insomnia I would lay in my bed and, think about all the things I couldn't do or wanted but, I just didn't have the strength to, I would think about how much better my husband would have been marrying someone else how I have ruined his life how mean I was to him and didn't even think or want to be. How he is carrying on with his life and me, I'm just better off dead because that is exactly how I feel like a person suffering from all this crap.  My kids don't seem t...

Octobers ipsy treats and no tricks review

Here is my review on the bag for the month of October  *the bag is an adorable red clutch with an embossed masquerade mask.  The theme for the month is  "Who said nights were for sleep" #ipsyafterdark  We hope this bag inspires endless after-dark adventures.                                Stay wild, moon child.  I have decided to start with Jayedyn's first this time.  1 st product is intensively precise eyeliner  from the brand Aurora the shade is a rich brown shade. This is a felt tip liquid liner you can glide this on to make the perfect cat eye.   Removes easily without tugging on those precious lids.    2 nd product is a sample of the highly coveted shape tape contour concealer. This is a full coverage product it brightens under eyes. It’s a m...

But you Don't look sick!!!!!

Chronic Illness can play a tricky part in life. One day you are feeling like you can conquer getting out of bed and moving to the couch and the next you can’t even move to go to the bathroom.  The stereotype behind them is also very hurtful and frustrating to say the least . The saying I hear a lot is. “What  you have Lupus, But you look great and not sick at all. “ Your makeup is on and your hair is done You look Normal! This drives me crazy,  I was talking with a friend who suffers as well  we were discussing this disease and how it would affect the world if you could see the insides of our bodies on the outside.  Would anyone look at us?  Or would they be able to look away once they did?  If the pain we felt was colored so that you could see it.  How would we look to the outside world? Would they say that we looked Normal Then?  How the world treats Invisible Illnesses has got to stop. It’s hard enough to deal ...
