February 2022 Ipsy Glam Bag X
The first Ipsy Glam Bag X of 2022 is here and it did not disappoint. This month’s box was curated by Addison Rae! Addison Rae is a TikToker, creator of Item Beauty, and stars in Netflix’s He’s All That. The inspiration behind this box is taking a trip back to the ‘90s.
Ipsy is a monthly subscription makeup bag that has three different options. The prices have changed recently due to the increase of newer brands coming to Ipsy. The first option is the Ipsy Glam Bag which, is $13 a month and, you receive 5-deluxe-sized beauty samples. The second option is the Glam Bag Plus which, is $28 a month and, you receive 5-full-size products. The third option is the Glam Bag X which, is $55 a quarter (February, May, August & November). With the Glam Bag X members-only upgrade to your monthly IPSY membership that includes seven to eight full-size products (worth up to $350) specially curated by beauty’s biggest tastemakers and celebs.
Benefit Cosmetics
The first item in my Ipsy Glam Bag X is the Benefit Cosmetics The POREfessional: Hydrate Primer. This primer creates a barrier between your skin and your foundation to help prevent oils from wearing down your makeup. This primer helps hydrate your skin for up to 12 hours with hyaluronic acid and shea butter.
Tula Skincare
The second item in my Ipsy Glam Bag X is the Tula Skincare 24/7 Moisture Hydrating Day & Night Cream. This two-in-one day and night cream is clinically proven to help moisturize, smooth, and balance skin with a blend of squalane, peptides, and probiotics. Tula has been one of my favorite brands lately and I haven’t had a chance to try this product yet so I was very excited to try it.
Stila
The third item in my Ipsy Glam Bag X is the Stila Stay All Day Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner in Stingray. Once this creamy gel eyeliner sets, the jet-black pigments won’t smudge or budge for a full 12 hours. I’ve used this eyeliner before and it is one of my favorite eyeliners! It stays all day and is super pigmented.
Aceology
The fourth item in my Ipsy Glam Bag X is the Aceology Multi-Vitamin Brightening Biodegradable Masks. These antioxidant-rich sheet masks are packed with Vitamins B3, C, and E that will smooth, brighten and protect your skin in just a few minutes.
First Aid Beauty
The fifth item in my Ipsy Glam Bag X is the First Aid Beauty Facial Radiance Niacinamide Dark Spot Serum. This brightening serum can help fade melasma, sun spots, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation all with a blend of niacinamide, licorice root, and kiwifruit. I am really excited to try this product because I have some dark spots on my skin that I can’t get rid of.
Item Beauty
The sixth item in my Ipsy Glam Bag X is from no other than Miss Addison Rae herself. It is the Item Beauty Lip Gloss Duo in Sun + Moon. These lip glosses are infused with vitamin E to majorly hydrate your lips without feeling sticky. I have tried some items from Item Beauty before and I have loved every single item.
Lilly Lashes
The seventh item in my Ipsy Glam Bag X is the Lilly Lashes Level Up Lash Enhancing Serum. This enhancing serum is made with strengthening biotin and keratin and conditioning amino acids. This serum promises longer, thicker lashes without piling on mascara.
Act + Acre
The eighth item in my Ipsy Glam Bag X is the Act+Acre Plant Based Dry Shampoo. This dry shampoo is made with just six ingredients. This all-natural dry shampoo helps absorb excess oil and neutralize odor to leave your hair feeling fresh and clean between washes.
