Hey Guys,

Today I'm going to share my thoughts on my Ipsy Glam Bag Plus for August! For those of you unfamiliar with Ipsy Glam Bag, it is a monthly beauty subscription box. You receive 5 deluxe/sample sized products each month. The subscription is $12.00 a month and usually has a theme. They also offer an upgraded box every month called Ipsy Glam Bag Plus. This box is $25.00 a month and includes 5 full sized products. You are able to choose 3 of the products in your box and Ipsy chooses 2 for you. Ipsy's picks are based of your beauty quiz/product reviews. They also offer a quarterly upgrade from your Glam Bag Plus called Glam Bag X. This box is $55.00 a quarter and includes 7-8 full sized products from higher end brands. All three subscriptions come with a themed makeup bag each month (different sizes per subscription type). For Glam Bag you are able to pick two items in your bag. With all subscriptions you also have the option to skip a month whenever you feel like it which is a huge bonus offering. I am currently subscribed to Ipsy Glam Bag Plus. The theme for this month's bag is "Wanderlust". Keep reading to see what I got in my bag this month! I will link all of the products in the description above each picture.

Review: Charlotte Tilbury Bigger, Brighter Eye Tricks Bundle

Hey Guys,
It's been a while since I've purchased Charlotte Tilbury products but I finally picked up some more! Last year I purchased my first Charlotte Tilbury products including the infamous Pillow Talk lipstick. You can read my review (HERE). I've had my eyes on some of her other products for quite a while. Her brand is considered a "luxury" brand and the prices can be pretty expensive. That is why I have waited to make another purchase. There was a pretty big summer sale on the brands website last week. She doesn't offer big discounts that often so I decided to take advantage. I picked up two bundles and one other product. Today I will be reviewing her Bigger, Brighter Eye Tricks Bundle. Keep reading to hear my thoughts on the products in this bundle!

Review: Charlotte Tilbury Bigger, Brighter Eye Tricks Bundle
The bundle was created specifically for her sale and is no longer available. The bundle was 40% off which made it $64.20 ($107.00 value). It included the Bigger Brighter Eyes Exagger-eyes Palette, an Eyes To Mesmerize Cream Eyeshadow of your choice, and a The Classic Eye Powder Pencil in either black, dark brown, or shimmering brown. Below I will discuss each product in the bundle.

My Microblading Experience

Hey Guys,
I know its been a long time coming but today I'm going to share my microblading experience. I wanted my my brows to fully heal from both appointment before sharing my honest review and thoughts on the procedure.  I mainly wanted to share my experience to help other people trying to decide if this is the right decision for them. It's something that I have thought about doing for quite a while. I had waited mainly because of price and the fact that you are basically tattooing your brows onto your face. For those of you unfamiliar with microblading, its a tattooing technique in which a small handheld tool made of several tiny needles (or a small scalpel) is used to add semi-permanent pigment to the skin. The process could take anywhere from an hour to several hours. Every person is different and depends on the look you are going for and how much eyebrows you already have. The microblading can last anywhere from 6 months to a year plus depending on the person and after care. Prices can range anywhere from $350-$800+ depending on the artist. I have a ton of info to share and tons of pictures of my brows through the process. Keep reading to hear about my experience.

Before Appointment
My Microblading Experience
As you can see I already had plenty of brows before my appointment. Many people get their eyebrows microbladed because they have no eyebrow hair at all. I chose to do it not because I didn't have eyebrows but because I could not get my brow hair to grow in certain areas such as the tail ends of my brows. I have tried for years and they just wouldn't fully grow in. I would spend a good 10-15 minutes filling in my my brows each time I did my makeup and I honestly just got sick of it. I did a little research, chose my microblading artist, and booked the appointment.
