April Ipsy Glam Bag

April's Glam Bag was lots of fun! The theme was 'Pretty in Pink' and I am a big fan of pink, so I really enjoyed this bag.  One new thing they did this month is that all of the items had variations, instead of just one or two.  I got all of the variations I wanted except for one, so I'd say that's pretty awesome!
The bag itself was a little boring, but it is very well-made and seems durable.  Of course, it's white, so I don't expect it to look good for very long.
 The first item was a full-size Be A Bombshell blush in the color Sweet Cheeks.  They sent out this color and another one called Beach Please which is a super bright pink.  I'm glad I got this one.  As I've said before, I'm not way into blush, but this is a soft enough color that I will be able to get plenty of use out of it.

The next item is a deluxe sample of Healthy Sexy Hair Soy Renewal.  It says it can be used in wet hair to help it dry faster as well as on dry hair to reduce frizz.  I'm not sure if it's really helping yet, but I could use some products for healthier hair, so I'll be continuing to try this one out.
There were two different brands of eyeshadow sent out, one was this full-size eyeshadow duo by Two Cosmetics and the other was an almost full-size shimmer powder by Mica Beauty.  I was hoping for the Mica one, but I got the Two Cosmetics duo instead.  However, after using it a few times I do actually like it.  It's soft enough pink that it doesn't look strange, so it looks like a neutral but with a twist.
 
The last item is a full-size Sation Nail Lacquer.  This was sent out in two colors, the pink one that I received and then a peachy one.  I am glad I got this one!  It is a bit more sheer than I like, but it is a nice neutral pink.  I actually got lots of compliments on this color when I wore it for a few days.  It doesn't seem to chip easily and looks semi-opaque in 3 coats.  This will be a nice color for when I don't want my nails to stand out as much, as it is somewhat close to my skin color, just pinker.

This bag was an amazing steal for $10!  If you want one too, Ipsy has now started a referral program, so please use my link to sign up: Ipsy.
