August 2013 Ipsy Bag

I got my Ipsy bag a couple of days ago and I'm so happy with it!
The first thing I got is this Michael Todd Jojoba Charcoal Gentle Exfoliating Facial Scrub. I had heard so much about this brand from Youtube gurus and was always afraid to try it, but I'm glad they included it in this month's Ipsy bag. I have already used it once and it feels so nice.

Claims:
The Jojoba Charcoal Gentle Exfoliating Facial Scrub is formulated using the powers of Jojoba Wax Beads and Activated Charcoal. This mask effectively removes dead skin, impurities and toxins, but is gentle enough for sensitive and acne prone skin types. Jojoba Wax Beads provide gentle exfoliation without leaving microlacerations on delicate skin. Highly absorbent Activated Charcoal penetrates deeply into pores to draw out impurities and toxins. Also refines texture and encourages skin renewal, leaving skin smooth and refreshed. 
 
Ingredients:
aloe barbadensis (organic aloe) juice, cocos nucifera (coconut rbd) oil, simmondsia chinensis (jojoba) wax beads, cocamidopropyl betaine, emulsifying wax, palm stearic acid, phenoxyethanol, aleurites moluccana (kukui nut) oil, spinacia oleracea (spinach) extract, activated charcoal, xanthan gum (polysaccharide gum), citrus limonum (lemon) essential oil, lavandula spp. (lavender 40/42) essential oil, cananga odorata (ylang ylang) essential oil, pelargonium graveolens (geranium) essential oil. 

The second item I received is this Noya Natural Vanilla Lipbalm. It's made from natural ingredients and is kosher, which is good for Jewish people. It's so moisturizing and softens my lips.

Claims:
The noya Lip Balm is a lightweight, all-natural formula that moisturizes, smooths, softens your lips and packs a full punch of flavor. And because it’s natural, you can lick your lips as much as you want – and trust us, you’ll want to often. 

Ingredients:
coconut oil, beeswax, organic extra virgin olive oil, natural flavor, organic stevia [alternatively, the ingredients with the binomial names: cocos nucifera (coconut) oil, cera alba (beeswax), organic extra virgin olea europaea (olive) oil, natural flavor, organic stevia rebaudiana] 

 The third item I received is this Pacifica Alight Multi-Mineral BB Cream. This has some shimmer in it and I don't like that because I don't want to look like a vampire from Twilight. The formula is thicker than some BB creams I've tried.

Claims:
The Alight Multi-Mineral BB Cream hydrates, primes, illuminates, and perfects leaving a sheer bare skin finish. Specialized mineral pigments instantly adjusts to your skin shade allows one color to work for many and can be built up for just the right amount of coverage. Your skin will look natural, dewy, youthful and radiant without looking like you are wearing heavy make-up.

The fourth item I received is this City Color Cheek Stain. I've never used a cheek stain before and I'm actually scared to use it.

The fifth and final item I received is this Pixi Beauty Lash Booster Mascara in Blackest Black. Pixi can be found in America in Target, but they are like a higher end brand.

Claims:
This unique mascara truly boosts your lashes, giving them a "push-up" effect that lasts all day. The dense, rich formula coats lashes with maximum pigment, for long-lasting full color and the cone-shaped brush coats each lash evenly. Long lasting, smudge-free and waterproof.
