[Unboxing] Ipsy April 2014 – Beauty Rocks with a B&A and FOTD.

Hi everyone!

I decided to do a little something different this month with the unboxing. I wanted to challenge myself to use all of the Ipsy items to create a look. You’ll see below what I ended up creating!

This month’s theme for Ipsy was Music. As you can see from their spoilers (see my previous post about them). They definitely added in items that can help you create a kind of rockstar look, just kidding not really. The only thing rockstar-y is the black eyeliner.

All of my April items!

Starlooks Luscious Longwear Lip Pencil in Naked – this is actually kind of coral
Full Size- .06 oz $14.00
Sample Size- .06 oz $14.00

Urban Decay 24/7 Velvet Glide-on Eye Pencil in Black Velvet – oops forgot to use this in FOTD. This is eyeliner sample number 20 I received!
Full Size- .04 oz $20.00
Sample Size- .03 oz $15.00

Elizabeth Mott pop! Goes the shadow in Champagne – this isn’t pigmented really well. It’s very similar to galore in the Kat Von D Esperanza palette. I would call it a less-pigmented dupe.
Full Size- .07 oz $12.99
Sample Size- .07 oz $12.99

dr. brandt microdermabrasion skin exfoliant – this is the second sample I received of this (first one I got in ipsy). The price of this is ridiculous!
Full Size- 2 oz $78
Sample Size- .25 oz $9.75

Coastal Scents Classic Shadow Medium Natural – I really like this brush a lot. After an initial shedding, no hairs were lost.
Full Size- 1 Brush $2.49
Sample Size- 1 Brush $2.49

Total value of the box: $54.23

Here is my before face:

Before Wee no makeup!

Here is a picture of some of the items I used:

What my lips looked like with half lipliner and half lipstick:

Top is lipliner, bottom is lipstick

And here is the final result!! My FOTD (Face of the Day)
