December Ipsy Glam Bag!!!

Finals are over!!!
I am happy to report that Danielle and I both survived, even though it was a close call at some points.
I'm even happier to report that today marked another highlight - the December Ipsy Glam Bag arrived!!!
Yayyyyyy!
Just like last time, I am obsessed!!!
This month's theme is Celebration and they have hit the nail on the head because as soon as I opened that shiny pink package I wanted to go out on the town. 
These products are perfect for a fun night out. They're so versatile and will help you create the perfect look for a night of dancing or your best friend's holiday party!
Let's start with this bag though, how cute is this?
I just want to use this as a clutch for a night out and to be perfectly honest, I don't go out so thanks Ipsy for bringing that side of me out! :)

The wonders don't stop there, these products are seriously top notch and had me ripping open their packaging before even leaving the post office!
Lately, I have been on a serious blush and lipstick kick and apparently they lovely behind-the-scene peeps at Ipsy are mind readers because I got just that.
These shades are amazing and work really great with my skintone, however, I think the lipstick is a little on the cooler toned side so I'm going to need to be careful with that because I tend to lean more toward the warm tones. I think these shades also go really well together, they're practically the same color after all, but I think that goes to show that Ipsy really does put the effort in to create a bag that's going to offer the essentials for a really great look together as well as separate. My only struggle is that the blush is a heavy product and probably won't be very well suited for oily-skin types so be careful.
My favorite part about these two are definitely their names though. The lipstick from NYX is called Iced Honey while the Be a Bombshell... cream blush is called Girl Crush! LOVE!
The product I was least excited about when I opened my bag were the eyelashes (which I just realized aren't actually in this picture, that's because I had already tried them out!). \
I don't wear false eyelashes, mostly because of a tragic eyelash experience from like 3 Halloweens ago, but sticking true to my beauty girl ways I gave 'em a shot! And I loved it! 
OMG! I finally understand what all the fuss is about, false lashes are a wonder of the world! 
Check out those lashes! Overlook the new bangs, I was feeling frisky this past week and decided to DIY them.

Overall, the only product I wasn't completely satisfied with was the Nicka K nail polish. I don't what it is but Ipsy loves to put me in really neutral, brownish nail polish shades. Well, I'm just not feeling it.

I cannot even begin to describe how much I love these bags though! 
I highly recommend them!
So, if you're interested, I suggest clicking THIS LINK and heading over to Ipsy and grabbing your own Glam Bag for next month!

till next time, lovelies

Finals Week has officially begun for both Danielle and I so please excuse us from posting as frequently, we're trying to brighten our futures...or whatever they call it. 
But in the meantime here are some funny little posts to get your through your own Finals Hell.
Because the world is just a better place with Ryan Gosling telling you not to stress.
It's true, no one is excited about the hell that is to come.
A Finals Week Prayer to get you through. Amen.
Come on Rory, that's not what's important at all! 

And finally, remember lovelies, you can do this!


 'til next time, darlings.
