Ipsy Glambag March 2018


March's Glambag was a creative one. If your only looking at the bag, it's a black and white bag - but inside it came with 2 markers. It's coloring time! I imagine they would wash out and you can start over. It's a stellar idea to change things up. 

NIP+FAB's Glycolic Scrub Fix - it refines, restores, and brightens your skin each time you use it. This scrub was a pleasant surprise for my pores, it really cleans them out! Retails for $10

TARTE COSMETICS' Sex Kitten Eyeliner - creamy, jet black waterproof eye liner great for lower lids too. Retails for $20

WINKY LUX's Powdered Lights in Charm - holographic highlighter that you can't help fall in love with. Retails for $18

Doucce Freematic Eyeshadow Mono in Lola - vibrant purple that claims no creases. Retails for $15

GOLDFADEN MD's Facial Detox Mask - this detoxing purifying mask pulls out dirt and debris from way deep down, making your skin look glowy and brand new. My pores in the last year have been nothing but trouble but this mask is my goddess-send. MUSTHAVE. Retails for $65
