Did I tell you that I decided to take the plunge and subscribe to the new Ipsy Glam Bag Plus? I think I read about it a few weeks ago on Facebook, and then I got an email asking me if I wanted to join the waitlist to subscribe. I thought about it, and since …
Birchbox vs. Sephora Play October 2016
As the year comes to an end and I’m thinking of dropping at least one of my subscriptions, let’s take a look at Birchbox and Sephora Play. Birchbox arrived first, and that’s something I like about it. I almost never have to wonder if I’m going to get my Birchbox. It’s old reliable. So …
Glossybox October 2016
I just received my second Glossybox! Last month, I got the gorgeous “Secret Garden” Glossybox illustrated by Antonio Soares.

Time has gotten away from me. I never got a chance to talk about my October ipsy bag, and now here’s November. So I’d like to show them both to you at once. Alter Ego October 2015 I liked how the bag that’s gold on one side and black patent on the other fit the …
Face Fashion September 2015 ipsy Bag
I know I’ve said this before, but I measure the passage of time in ipsy bags, and I got my September bag a couple of weeks ago. This year is just flying by! I wish it would slow down. This month’s theme is Face Fashion, and all of my products were face makeup, skincare or beauty …
