February Ipsy

Affiliate Links
 
My February Ipsy bag contained items from Luxie Beauty, Cargo Cosmetics, Hey Honey, Tini Beauty, and Model Co

While it’s already 10 days into March I still wanted to share with you my February Ipsy Bag. I haven’t received March’s Ipsy Bag yet so I thought I could still fit in the February Ipsy Bag before March’s arrives.

About Ipsy

Ipsy costs $10/month and you get 4-5 beauty samples that always tend to run from deluxe to full-size. Products included range from drugstore, independent, and high end brands.

Make sure to watch the February Ipsy Unboxing video above. If you can’t see the above video click here

Luxie Makeup Brush

One item in the February Ipsy bag was Luxie Beauty Brush

The first item in my February Ipsy bag was a Luxie Beauty 504 Large Angled Brush. I love makeup brushes so receiving one in my Ipsy bag is always a treat. This one is not only pretty but super soft as well.

Cargo Lip Gloss

One item in the February Ipsy bag is a Cargo Cosmetics Lip Gloss in Anguilla

The second item in my February Ipsy bag was a deluxe sample of Cargo Cosmetics Lip Gloss‘ in Anguilla. The shade for this lip gloss is absolutely stunning, it was a little tacky when I swatched it, however, that didn’t last on my lips. It wore for a good amount of time and wasn’t sticky hardly at all.

Purchase Full Size

Hey Honey Mask

One item in the February Ipsy bag is the Hey Honey Peel Off Mask

The third item in my February Ipsy bag was a small bottle of Hey Honey Peel Off Mask. I love most things face masks except peel off masks, I don’t why I’m just Meh on them. However, I’m intrigued enough by the Hey Honey Peel Off Mask to overlook that and give it a try.

Purchase Full Size

Tini Beauty Eye Shadow

One item in the February Ipsy bag was a Tini Beauty Eye Shadow in the shade Pearl Fizz

The fourth item in my February Ipsy was a Tini Beauty Eye Shadow in Pearl Fizz. This is a gorgeous cream colored eye shadow. I’ve never used Tini Beauty makeup but I have used their nail polishes and never have been disappointed so I’m intrigued to see how the eye shadow turns out!

Purchase Full Size

Model Co Blush

One item in the February Ipsy bag was a Model Co Blush in Cosmopolitan

The last item that was in my February Ipsy bag was a Model Co Blush in Cosmopolitan. This blush, at first glance, seems a bit small but everything I found about it says that it is indeed the full-size. It’s a nice flat shade without any shimmer which I really do like in blushes so I can’t wait to try this out.

Value

Product Sample Size Full Size Price Worth
Luxie Makeup Brush 1 Brush 1 Brush $16.00 $16.00
Cargo Lip Gloss — — — *SEE NOTE
Hey Honey Peel Off Mask 10 ml 50 ml $29.00 $5.80
Tini Beauty Eye Shadow 0.06 oz. 0.06 oz. $12.00 $12.00
Model Co Blush 0.12 oz. 0.12 oz. $22.00 $22.00
TOTAL $55.80
*NOTE*

There is no value for the Cargo Cosmetics Lip Gloss because there was a bit of a snafu either on Ipsy’s part or Cargo’s part. The deluxe sample I received in my Ipsy bag has a label on the bottom stating that it is 4.5 ml. However, if you go to the Cargo website (or any other website that sells Cargo Cosmetics) the full-size is always listed as 2.5 ml. Obviously a deluxe sample can NOT be bigger than the full-size, so I can’t find a true value for this product.

February Ipsy Bag Contents

My February Ipsy bag cost me $10 and I received $55.80 worth of products and that’s without the Cargo Cosmetics Lip Gloss! My favorite item from this month’s bag is hands down the Luxie Makeup Brush. This month I didn’t actually have a least favorite item!

About Cassie

I started Southeast by Midwest back in 2012 as a lifestyle blog. After a few months I felt a pull towards beauty so I rebranded as a beauty specific blog. Over the years I've grown my knowledge and love of beauty products to the point that I am currently in Cosmetology school.
