Anya's Christmas Mani

COM

It's been a long time since I've posted a mani, mostly because I've barely had time to polish my nails, let alone do something fancy with them. But Sunday we sat down for some television watching, and I decided to get into the season with a Christmas Mani.

This uses:
  • Essie: "no place like chrome"
  • Nailtini: "Bloody Mary"
  • Image plate: BM-306

This month's Ipsy bag was huge! Everything was either full-sized or neat full-sized. Plus there's an extra item.

  • be a bombshell lip crayon "shameless"
  • nailtini lacquer "Caviar Cocktail"
  • pixi Beauty Bronzer "Subtly Suntouched"
  • Cailyn mineral eyeshadow "Champagne"
  • .em - pillow plush cushiony lip balm "lollipop"
  • Starlooks Gem Eye Pencil "Topaz"
I haven't had a chance to try any of it. November was a busy month.

Anya's Jaunuary Ipsy

My Ipsy bag this month includes:
  • SOHO Beauty "Crease Brush"
  • big sexy hair "Spray & Play" Voluminizing hairpsray
  • Pacifica Body Butter - Tuscan Blood Orange
  • Josie Maran Argan Oil
  • Nailtini "Bloody Mary"
All inside a cute black bag with a blue and white star interior.

The brush looks sweet (though I have something that looks like it in my NAKED2 palette).

I never spray my hair so I doubt the big sexy hair spray will get used.

The body butter smells nice and citrusy. 

The Argan Oil is 100% and has instructions for using it on your face, hair and/or body. It doesn't have much of an odor either way which is fine by me.

I was thrilled to find the Nailtini polish this time was a creme rather than a glitter. It coats very well. I haven't tried stamping with it but I imagine it will rock. 


Here's a shot of it:

Finally a red polish I LIKE! Thank you, IPSY <3

Anya's Ipsy/MyGlam November 2012

This post has taken so long because my camera battery died. And then once it was charged I never got a photo of this bag. I know, excuses excuses. Above is the image from Ipsy's site. I did NOT get the mascara. They sent the brow gel instead.

Anyhow, here's my review:

  • Starlet Intense Eyeliner
    • A full eyeliner pencil came in this box. Shade is "chocolate". It's closer to reddish brown than any chocolate I've come across. That would be a sweet shade...for just about anything other than eyeliner. It ends up getting lost in every shadow combination I've tried. I'm also not a fan of pencils because I suck at sharpening them.
  • Nailtini Nail Lacquer in Millionaire
    • I was excited for this one because it was a full bottle of polish. But then I recalled I'm not a fan of glitters. This is like confetti in a bottle. If that sounds good to you, then by all means, grab some. (Check out picture below)
  • bareMinerals Marvelous Moxie Lipgloss
    • The color isn't too bad. The size was sweet. It might not be a full stick but it's definitely not a puny sample. Consistency ok. It doesn't last any longer on my lips than any of my other lipgloss (basically its gone after sipping any drink). It has a cool, tingly feel after a few seconds. I'm not sure why but its not uncomfortable, it's just a little strange.
  • Chella Defining Eyebrow Gel
    • This has a slightly chemical odor to it kind of like nail polish or remover. It comes in a smallish tube with a wire brush very similar to mascara. I assume I'm supposed to whisk it along my brow. So I did. The scent fades as it dries. But as far as I can tell this does absolutely nothing for me. To be fair, I don't have a whole lot of brow to gel.
  • theBalm Meet Matt(e) eyeshadow palette in Matt Batali
    • Have yet to try this one. It's a bit dark. I haven't been that brave.
