Ipsy Glam Bag {April 2014}

This month's Ipsy Glam Bag was called Beauty Rocks! These beauty products are meant to be worn for a glam, rock n' roll look. I really like the bag this month because it's dark purple and it's more square than the previous bags. 

What I got in this month's bag:
♥ Dr. Brandt's Microdermabrasion Skin Exfoliant (full size $78, sample $18)
♥ Big Sexy Hair's Root Pump Volumizing Spray (full size $18, sample $8ish)

This month's bag was worth $55!
MINI REVIEW

Urban Decay's 24/7 Velvet Glide on Pencil in Black Velvet

I was so excited to receive this eyeliner since I absolutely love all of Urban Decay's products. It was like fate that I got it because I've actually been wanting a black eyeliner from Urban Decay. If you're looking for a super pigmented, super black, matte eyeliner that glides on easily and stays on all day this is the one for you. 

Dr. Brandt's Microdermabrasion Skin Exfoliant 

I love exfoliating my skin, but when I put a small amount of the white exfoliant with it's super tiny beads of sand onto my hand I was skeptical, but then I started rubbing it into my skin and it works so amazingly well. It smells like a minty lemon, which I like. If you have sensitive skin, I would be wary because it can be a little rough. 

Pop! Goes the Shadow x Elizabth Mott's Eye Shadow in Champagne 

This eye shadow is so pretty! I love wearing shimmery champagne-colored nudes as a base. What I love about this one is that's subtle but in a way still has an impact, and it also didn't crease on my oily lids. Most shimmery eye shadows crease on me even with an eye primer, but this one didn't. 

Mary Kay at Play's Jelly Lip Gloss in Teddy Bare

I've never liked lip gloss, but this jelly one I really didn't like. It immediately felt sticky and remained sticky for the 20 minutes I left it on. I don't think lip glosses are supposed to be this sticky. I also wasn't a fan of the nude color.  

Big Sexy Hair's Root Pump Volumizing Spray

Sometimes I feel like my roots can use a bit of help, so I was happy to try this. It's easy to use, it's smells great (like fresh floral scent), it's not sticky or anything, and it didn't weigh my hair down. It wasn't super amazing, but it does help volumize a little.
