The Ipsy theme for February is “Pretty In #IpsyPink.” Ipsy is a monthly beauty subscription – get 5 items in a cute bag for $10 a month! It’s the most popular subscription box (even though it’s a bag) with over 1.3 million subscribers and 100k new ones monthly. If you’re an Ipsy fan, be sure to watch for my monthly spoiler posts – I pick one reader randomly from the comments as my referral link for most of the month. Several of the past winners were able to load up on bonus items! Ipsy always comes in a fab pink mailer bag!
My bag this month was REALLY big!
If you recall, I mentioned last month that I picked up an Em Cosmetics palette and a Colour Pop shadow set with my points.
That was an awesome haul. Remember to subscribe to the newsletter so you see the March 2016 Ipsy Spoilers – I will open the referral link giveaway with the first spoiler!
The February Glam Bag featured cute pixel-style envelope that looks like it was beaded.
And the back was a beautiful gelly hot pink!
Everything in my bag for February!
Trust Fund Beauty Nail Polish in I’m Kind Of A Big Deal ($15) A beautiful bright dusty rose – it’s super pretty and pink, and I love Trust Fund Beauty!
Margaret Dabbs London Miniature Crystal Nail File ($9.75?) I think this is an amazing product! The crystal finish I think is really nicer on your nails and leaves a nice smooth finish. This is a deskworthy nail file! I really don’t know how to value this – they don’t sell a miniature version of their file so I priced it the same as this OPI one.
Smashbox Cosmetics Photo Finish Primer Oil ($5.46) This is an oil-based primer that will prep your skin and increase moisture. It has a great lavender scent, and since Smashbox makes the ultimate primers, I was thrilled about this!
Paula Dorf Baby Eyes Enhancer ($1 – I think they have their decimals in the wrong place, this is clearly not 5% of the $20 full size pencil, I think the actual value is $9 or $10, depending on whether you use grams or ounces) This is similar to the Chella pencils Ipsy also sends out – use it to rim your eyes or contour your lips!
BelláPierre Cosmetics Mineral Blush in Desert Rose ($20) I felt like I owned this product, but swatched it anyways (I do – January 2014 Glossybox). This turns out so pretty on the skin and gives a great glow with the mineral blush.
I also swatched the Paula Dorf.
My February Ipsy was awesome! I think they’re really starting to include higher end brands in the boxes and I can’t argue with the value – about $59 (I used $9 for the eye pencil). Sometimes the brands get a little repetitive but this was a good month for me! What did you get in your bag?

I am a “ghost” follower… love all your review and especially the spoilers! Love Love Love the pallette you got! Let us know how you like it!
i LOVE it! i wish they would do em all the time in the bags! thank you for commenting, it made me smile (especially your email address!!)
I got exactly the same things you did this month. Won’t use the oil, but the rest of it looks good. Even the pencil thing, although I don’t generally use eyeliner. The color is interesting, and it’s soft enough that I can see using it other ways. And the bag is one of my favorites of their recent ones – so cute!

Wonderful review. Great pics. What a great point reward! Can’t wait until I have enough points for a nice gift. Wish that the points didn’t expire. Thank you so much for posting.
Thanks! What did you get this month? Don’t forget to do all the social media actions for extra points, especially if you’re close – and to set your Facebook privacy to “only me.” You still get the credit even if nobody can see it!
So close to twins again this month. The only difference is you got the nail file that I so dearly need and I got some Jersey show lotion.
I thought about you when I opened it!
