July 2014 Ipsy Open Bag Sensationally Sunkissed

This is been a crazy month with Ipsy. Mostly with there billing. I had to update my account like 4 or 5 times. Sent several Emails and a week of saying I was billed but they finely fixed it. This months theme is Sensationally Sunkissed maybe for the end of summer. I feel like summer is getting so short now. School supplier is already on sale. But anyways here is whats in my bag

Elf Haul #2- During 30% and 20% Off Sale Photos and Video

Elf has to be my favorite brand out there. Its great quiltiy and everything is under $10(Most of them are $1-$6). Can you really beat that price? I go to Elf's ( www.eyeslipsface.com ) website every day. Every week they have different sales going on. This last sale was there birthday sale what made order $20+ 20% off and $30+ 30% off . So there were a few things i still wanted to try so I ordered things. Here are what I ordered -

Review- Urban Decay Naked Basics Palette

This have been reviewed over and over again. It been out for over a year or so and everyone out there has probably reviewed it. But here is mine.

These are great shadow. There very soft and great colors. There are 4 matte, Shimmer and an satin finishes. The colors are Venus, Foxy, W.O.S, Naked 2, Faint, and Crave. There all great colors for any skin tone.

Swatches with and without primer

I don't go out and buy palettes that often. Mostly for the cost of them. This on is only $27-28 dollars for only 6 shadows. There great quality shadows don't get me wrong buy my big thing is the cost. This is a great neutral palette. Great for everyone but it comes down to how much your wanting to spend on something. Its not something I am willing to go out and buy over and over again when i can spend less on something else. If you want a palette from Urban Decay and not wanting to spend $50+ on one buy this one.

Here are places you can order this-

Review Time- ELF Custom Eyeshadows and Compact

About 2 weeks ago, I ordered several products from www.eyeslipsface.com -Elf Cosmetics- site during there 50% off sale. I ordered 2 Custom Eyeshadows and the Custom Compact. I had already owned 2 of the Custom Shadows, in Pink Ice and Teal, and during the sale ordered 2 more shadows and the compact. The Shadows are very pigmented with or without primer. The compact has a good size mirror that is great for doing you makeup. In all this is a great thing for travel. In all the normal cost would be total of $5. With the sale price it was only $2.50. What a great deal. Elf always has a deal going on there website. I would buy more of these. Below is the link to buy and swatches of the 4 colors i own.
