IPSY June 'On The Wild Side'

Another month another Ipsy Bag.  To be honest this month's bag was my least favourite, however there were a couple of products that I am extremely excited to receive and try.  If you don't know about Ipsy, it is a monthly beauty subscription which costs $10 US per month and you will receive between 4-6 products including a cute themed makeup bag. 

This month's theme was "On The Wild Side" and featured 4 products and 1 bonus product!

1) Starlooks Lip Pencil - This lead free lip liner has a creamy moisturising formula providing a long lasting, full coverage.  2) Chella Ivor Lace Highlighter Pencil - To be applied to your brow bone, dark circles, blemishes, and red spots to brighten and visibly lift the area. Simply apply to desired area and blend with your ring finger. 3) PSSSST! Instant Dry Shampoo - This lightweight formula soaks up sweat, oils, and product build-up allowing a longer lasting blow out.  Simply spray, comb, and go! (Perfect for my Bonaroo experience this weekend!)

4) J Cats Beauty Sparkling Cream Palette - The cream texture allows you to easily apply the sparkles the your body with a normal applicator. (Unsure if I will end up using it, but will definitely give it a chance.)  5) NYX Rough Cream Blush - The smooth texture makes this cream blush extremely easy to apply and blend as needed/wanted.  I already have this in 2 other colours and LOVE IT!!!  So I am extremely excited to try this new colour!

A Sad Farewell to my Monthly Julep Maven Box

I am sad to announce that my June Julep Maven Box "Sail into Summer" will be my final one :(  Being a lover of nail polish and thinking you can never have too much, I have unfortunately realised you can.  Although, I love the polishes, colours, quality, and other monthly goodies, I just don't need 2+ polishes a month!  So without further adieu here's the 3 products I received in my last Julep Maven Box ;(

1) A 1oz tube of Julep's DD Creme in colour Medium.  This 'Dynamic Do-All' makeup contains SPF 25, anti-ageing ingredients, olive and hibiscus extracts, light-weight coverage, and comes in 4 different shades. 2) Julep Nail Lacquer in Dianna and 3) Julep Nail Lacquer in Lexie.

With summer just around the corner and a trip to Tennessee taking place as you are reading this I will hopefully have that summer glow us girls are all looking for when I come back.  Since I received the product in Medium it is perfect for this time of year, as typically I wear a lighter shade, however in the summer I usually wear no face makeup because I don't want to purchase yet another foundation colour.  Also, both nail lacquers are going to be perfect for both my finger and toe nails throughout summer.  I am obsessed with bright polishes and these two colours together will be like peanut-butter and jam together!  This was such a great box and made it even sadder to cancel my subscription, but who knows maybe sometime soon down the road I will be a Julep Maven once again!

Oh How I Wish I Was A Princess...

 

Princess Madaleine of Sweden wed Christopher O'Neill in Stockholm, Sweden Saturday June 8th and wow was she a stunning bride.  Madaleine wore a custom Valentino gown by Mr. Valentino Garavani himself.  The white Chantilly lace haute couture wedding gown featured silk organza with appliqued ivory, v-shaped back, 4 meter long train, and accentuated waist.  The Princess styled her wedding look with a low bun and 5 meter long veil made of the same Chantilly lace and silk organza, ivory silk stilettos, a tiara from her own collection, and a gorgeous ivory bouquet made from roses, lilies, and myrtle.  If this wedding dress doesn't make you wish you were a Princess, I don't know what would! Simply gorgeous :)
