Everything in my bag!
Limited Edition Makeup Bag ($12) The bag is so cute and is a nice textured vinyl.
It’s super sturdy and perfect for keeping things organized in a larger bag!
Trifle Cosmetics Sugar Pear ($17.95) This lip scrub tastes and smells like sweet fall pears! It’s also finer grained than a typical scrub with real emollient power – Cacao Butter, Sweet Almond Oil and Pecan Seed Oil make it really moisturizing.
I really appreciate that they specifically say gluten-free on the site too – important for a lip product for celiacs!
Jelly Pong Pong Cupid’s Arrow Contour Brush ($24) The handle of the brush traces the arrow in flight
Super pretty with unicorn/mermaid shades!
The brush head itself is made of ultra-smooth, nylon filaments and is a packed chisel head perfect for contouring.
So Susan Cosmetics Gemstar Lip Topper in “Adrenaline” ($24)
I actually saw this topper before the spoilers were released for this bag, and I wanted it so bad!
It’s SO glittery and fun and has a fantastic watermelon flavor. The shine is crystalline and iridescent and it gives you some pink on your lips – but with the silver/blue shift that makes you look super shiny and maybe a tad bit alien. Love it. This gloss is also totally cushioned and the shimmer is ultrafine – no grit on the lip!
Bonus! Mirabella Blackmail Eye Crayon ($12 on card, $25 online)
I wanted to love this lip crayon, because chunky black eye pencil that glides on smoothly – I’m a yes for.
Unfortunately this didn’t set and smeared, and for a big black eye pencil, that’s not great. Even applying it, it was just a little too chunky and got all over the place. Without fail when applying to upper lids it got onto lower, and minutes after application I could still wipe it off. And despite easily smudging, it was tough to remove. A total miss for me.
Swatches – here I have the lip topper, eye pencil, and then the lip topper on top of a live glam kiss me lippie! I loved the lip topper and the lip scrub was really nice, but overvalued in my opinion, so I wasn’t wowed by this bag. The brush is super fun of course, but only having 1 makeup product I liked in the bag made me wish for another cosmetic. Next month!
