September 2013 ipsy Glam Bag

spent the morning and a good chunk of the afternoon at the barn, Aramis was a really good boy! Mr. Pawlish and i grabbed a quick lunch and then he went off to get fly fishing supplies... he's going on a guy's trip to Yellowstone in a couple weeks. i honestly don't get the appeal of fly fishing (or... any fishing), who wants to stand in ice cold hip deep water... for hours?! i try to be a good sport about things, but that's just not happening. so glad that they all found something fun to do together, though!

it's ipsy time again! September's Glam Bag arrived yesterday... i really love the little cosmetic bag the products came in this time! since i didn't like last months cosmetic bag at all, i'm stoked about that :)

Classic Beauty was this month's theme... i can definitely see putting together a classic red lip with winged liner with this month's products. i was majorly disappointed because some people got a Butter London polish in their bag... no polish in mine :(

the only thing i probably won't use is the StarLooks Obsidian black eyeliner... it stays smudgy and that type just doesn't work with my oily skin! i'm not sure how visible the Chella Ivory Lace Highlighter will be on me... it's pretty close to my actual skintone. i'm always open to trying new mascaras, but the name just sounds gross!... It's So Big by Elizabeth Mott. very silly.

the NYX eyeshadow is in Golden Poppy, a lovely gold shimmer... that's my first ever NXY eyeshadow! the Cailyn Tinted Lip Balm in Big Apple is surprisingly pigmented... color me impressed.

let me know if you'd like to see full reviews on any of these products! Ria :)
