June REVEAL - Ipsy

SPOILERS, SNEAK PEEKS & MORE!


Hello Summer! Are you excited? I'm not a huge fan of the weather or bright sunny days, but hellooooo vacation time! My work hours are cut back and I can spend more time on my blog, getting back in shape and seeing my besties! Yay! 

First things first...ipsy Sneak Peeks! So far, we've had two and they look awesome already...take a look...

From ipsy's website:

OFFICIAL GLAM BAG: JUNE 2014


"Warm white sandy beaches or a cafe under a star filled night sky, being pretty in YOUR paradise is only a Glam Bag away. We picked products that are excellent for an extravagant getaway or a quintessential kit for a quick trip for some peace and quiet. What paradise is on your bucket list?" - ipsy.com

Well, I'm not a beach person, but I wouldn't mind kicking back on one of those chairs, with a good book in hand and a cool drink. Am I right?! 

So it looks like it's a paradise theme!



JUNE GLAM BAG SNEAK PEEK #1


"Headed to paradise with the one you love? Make sure your lips are pout-perfect with one of these pretty picks. Mark your calendar: Glam Room goes live on 6/10! Its time to get excited!" - from ipsy's facebook

Haha, well it's pretty easy to tell what brand this is...

NYX COSMETICS
BUTTER GLOSSES 

First of all, this is more than confirmed, because emails also went out to ipsy subscribers who are not currently subscribed as an incentive to resign-up for the Glam Bag. Here is what was in the email:



Neither the email or Sneak Peek photo show what shades these are (as there are 22 total on NYX's website!) but based off of comparing, here's what I found: 

Eclair BLG02 (pink)

   
 "Buttery soft and silky smooth, our scrumptious new Butter Lip Gloss tastes as sweet as a sugar cookie—and makes your lips look downright luscious. Swipe it on alone or over your favorite lipstick for creamy sheer to medium coverage that melts onto your lips and is never sticky." - nyxcosmetics.com

I'm basing these matches off of the theory that the same three shades are in both the ipsy email and the Sneak Peek photo. That is not confirmed, but it seems reasonable based off of the wording "one of these amazing shades". It seems that ipsy used NYX's website photos for their email, so I matched the shades from that rather than the Sneak Peek, as the lighting is different which can make the color appear a bit different. 


Creme Brulee BLG05 (natural)




Apple Strudel BLG08 (peach)








JUNE GLAM BAG SNEAK PEEK #2


"Every time you close your eyes, it will be paradise with one of these amazing products in your June Glam Bag." - from ipsy's facebook


OOooooo, eyeliners! Aw yeah! Three brands shown above, here's what I found...


JESSE'S GIRL COSMETICS
Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner
in LEL Black

   
 "Our unique Japanese calligraphy-style brush allows for precise, super-fine application that lets you create lines as small as one millimeter thickness! Combined with a formula that dries super-quick (for a waterproof, smudge-proof application), our liquid eyeliner glides on smoothly without tugging or pulling." - jessesgirlcosmetics.com




NICKA K NEW YORK
SHIMMER EYELINER
in

Blue NF004

    
"Water, smudge, and fade-resistant liquid shimmer liners. Ergonomic, foam tip applicator allows for precision handling and effortlessly glides across lids. Sparkle and shine for instant glamour." - nicka.com


and 

Green NF008


   




 OFRA COSMETICS
Eyeliner in Brown OR
Absolute Brow Pencil?? 


Eyeliner - "Water resistant pencil suitable for the most sensitive eye & lip areas. Created with a synthetic beeswax base for a smooth, soft and long lasting application." - ofracosmetics.com

Eyebrow Pencil - "Water resistant pencil suitable for the most sensitive eye area. It is the perfect solution for your eyebrows and is called Universal Eyebrow Pencil for a reason as it is one color to suit all skin tones. It is soft enough and will make it easy for you to create a perfect shape." - ofracosmetics.com
  
  
Well, that's all the sneak peeks for now. Tomorrow I'm guessing we'll have a variety selection!







UPDATE 6/4

Hello again! Welp, looks like I was right, today we have a HUGE variety photo!


"Life is beautiful with two of these exciting discoveries in your bag this month!" - from ipsy's Facebook

I spy with my little eye TEN products in this photo! As well as a hot dog, surf board, beach pails, refreshments and some super cool red sunglasses! ::giggles:: On to the reveals!...


OLE HENRIKSEN

TRUTH TO GO WIPES



"Cleanse or refresh your skin with our easy to use wipes.  Perfect for travelers or busy people on the go, each cloth is a perfect pick me up with the truth collection's signature citrus vanilla scent. Strong enough to remove dirt, grime and makeup, but gentle enough not to over dry the skin." - olehenriksen.com




BE A BOMBSHELL
LASH OUT MASCARA
Intense Black


"A rich pigmented mascara with a lengthening formula that offers a multidimensional look." - beabombshellcosmetics.com





LANEIGE
BB CUSHION SPF50+
Sample - Puff with shades Light, Medium, Dark

    
"Protects · Covers · Hydrates · Soothes · Brightens, SPF50+ broad spectrum sunscreen." - us.laneige.com

My thanks to Amy from Grey Duck Blogging for allowing me to use her photo! Once I found the product, I went searching for a good picture of the sample foil and found it in an April review of her Beauty Army subscription. Looks like a perfect match!






CLARISEA
RAPID DETOX CHARCOAL EXFOLIANT


"clariSEA SeaSalt Solutions Rapid Detox Charcoal Exfoliant vacuums up impurities from deep within pores with naturally detoxifying ingredients. The activated bamboo charcoal powder in clariSEA SeaSalt Solutions Rapid Detox Charcoal Exfoliant immediately absorbs and whisks away dirt and excess oil while the Pacific and Himalayan sea salt attack acne causing bacteria on the surface of skin." - luckyvitamin.com

The photo on the top right corner is from clariSEA's Facebook page. They stated with the photo:

"We're gearing up for a certain sample box! Well, actually it's a bag...1 down, 24,999 to go!" - facebook.com/ClariSEA

Sounds confirmed to me!





MDSOLARSCIENCES
 MINERAL TINTED CREME SPF 30


"This multi-functional, tinted crème, infused with ProVention-R™ antioxidants, leaves skin with an even, matte finish. The lightweight “barely-there” formula goes on silky-smooth and blends quickly and easily. Use alone or with your regular foundation for soft, smooth skin in and out of the sun." - mdsolarsciences.com





OFRA COSMETICS
ABSOLUTE BROW PENCIL


"Water resistant pencil suitable for the most sensitive eye area. It is the perfect solution for your eyebrows and is called Universal Eyebrow Pencil for a reason as it is one color to suit all skin tones. It is soft enough and will make it easy for you to create a perfect shape. ." - ofracosmetics.com

So here's what is strange...you can make out the word "Eyebrow" right below OFRA in this photo, so it's an eyebrow pencil. OFRA's website only has one eyebrow pencil photo, but it looks olive green, HOWEVER, in all the photos from bloggers, etc. it definitely looks brown, just like the photo I used above. THIS photo that I used is shown under the brown eyeliner (like the sneak peek from yesterday). SOOOOOO, it is quite possible that we're not receiving a brown eyeliner at all, but the eyebrow pencil instead. (Product shown in both sneak peeks. ipsy has done that before). Now, why the online photo for the brow pencil looks olive green, I have no idea! Hahaha!





SKINN
OLIVE & ENZYME RICH BALM CLEANSER


"Rich in Polyphenols and skin resurfacing enzymes, this water-free, super-rich, night-time cleansing balm is the ultimate skin luxury. First, it dissolves dirt, makeup, daily grime, pollution and dead skin cells. It's so gentle it even removes eye makeup as it softens and smoothes the skin with rich olive butter. Orange oil works to purify, while a new high-tech bio-engineered enzyme resurfaces for the cleanest skin ever! Apply as a mask for the ultimate super smoothing, resurfacing, deep pore cleansing treatment." - store.skinn.com

The coloring is different, but I'm assuming that it's because it's a smaller tube. I could not find a match for the 58ml travel size, but the writing is the same!





ESSENCE OF BEAUTY
FINE FRAGRANCE BODY MIST
in Wind Kissed and Forever Paris

    
"Essence of Beauty Wind Kissed Fine Fragrance Body Mist is a light, delicate mist that offers lasting fragrance and soothes skin. This clean floral embodies the exciting start of a bright new season and features cotton flower, blackberry, mimosa and white amber." - ipsy.com
"Essence of Beauty Forever Paris Fine Fragrance Body Mist is a light, delicate mist that offers lasting fragrance and soothes skin. This fruity floral brings to life Robert Doisneau’s famous photo of a kissing couple and features cassis, Parisian roses, French vanilla and amber." - ipsy.com

Ipsy finally updated their product pages! It has been confirmed:

"ipsters will receive Wind Kissed or Forever Paris in their glam bag." - ipsy.com





DERMADOCTOR
DD CREAM
DERMATOLOGICALLY DEFINING BB CREAM WITH BROAD SPECTRUM SFP30


"The alphabet soup stops here, DD does it all.  Our Dermatologists’ Dream Cream defines, delays, defends, delights and delivers.  This multifunctional corrective beauty balm provides 15 healthy skin benefits and a white sapphire complex that leaves skin healthy and naturally gorgeous." - dermadoctor.com





REALTREE
PERFUME
FOR HER


"Originating from the creator and marketer of the worlds most versatile camo pattern makers, Realtree has decided to develop a sensitive yet delicious fragrance that captures you. This scent is not only a whirlwind of feelings, but it stands alone with the Realtree brand. Giving you the excellence of Realtree and the softness of perfume. Enjoy!" - ipsy.com

It's been confirmed on ipsy's website! 

"ipsy subscribers who receive this product will receive the Deluxe Sample." - ipsy.com





UPDATE 6/5

Happy Thursday everyone! The weekend is almost here, anyone have any awesome plans? I have a couple of ipsy updates for you today. First of all, ipsy has posted on their Facebook that Glam Bags have begun to ship out! 


"YAY! Your June "Pretty in Paradise" Glam Bags are just starting to leave our warehouse in batches, and we'll be emailing your tracking codes beginning NEXT WEEK.

Please stay tuned for your Glam Room to update on Tuesday, June 10. There we'll reveal the products you'll be getting this month, and we'll also list amazing offers from all of June's brand partners. It's officially time to get excited!" - from ipsy's Facebook


There we go! The theme is Pretty in Paradise! I had a feeling it was some sort of paradise theme, hahaha. The photos gave it away ::eyebrow wiggle:: Looks like we have five more days before the Glam Room opens, but maybe we'll see some bags coming in before then. 


JUNE GLAM BAG SNEAK PEEK #4



"Paradise is filled with nothing but fabulous hair days, especially with one of these awesome items in your Glam Bag!" - from ipsy's Facebook

Getting some sun there, guys? Haha, here's the reveals...

DOVE
PURE CARE DRY OIL 
RESTORATIVE TREATMENT



"Pure Care Dry Oil Restorative Treatment with Anatolian Pomegranate Seed Oil delivers extraordinary care for ageless beauty. With unique Dry Oil technology, the lightweight, luxurious formula absorbs deep into hair, leaving it sublimely silky, not greasy or weighed down." - dove.us





MARC ANTHONY
DREAM WAVES

Hydrolyzed Silk and Provitamin B5 protect your tresses while adding moisture and shine. Powerful UV Protectors absorb ultraviolet light to save your mane from harmful sun exposure, dehydration and color-fade. You’re left with manageable, touchable waves. Even the straightest hair can achieve tousled beach hair any time of year." - marcanthony.com






CAROL'S DAUGHTER
SACRED TIARE
ANTI-BREAKAGE AND ANTI-FRIZZ STYLING CREAM



"FOR DAMAGED, FRAGILE, FRIZZY & UNRULY HAIR.
Say so long to unmanageable frizz and hair breakage, and hello to frizz-free and fortified hair. This protective blow dry cream repairs as it freezes your sleek style into place as you blow-dry and flat iron so you can have unmatched control and hair that's healthier than before. Made with strand-strengthening Coprah Coconut Oil, a sacred, protein-rich ingredient that is blended with Tiare Gardenia Flower, follicle-restoring Pro-vitamin B5 and nourishing Moringa Seed Oil for a flawless finish that's stronger and smoother." - target.com

  3. Haha, thank you! It's funny, sometimes I enjoy the sneak peek detective work more than I like the Glam Bag itself! It's like a huge riddle or I-Spy to solve!
