This month's theme is based around transitioning from Summer to Autumn, which is definitely something that is perfect! I love Autumn/Winter time, because you can wear darker colors without looking overdressed (and your face doesn't melt off)!
I so am in love with this bag. It's the perfect gold/copper and the texture/design on the front is adorable.
ipsy*NYX Eyeshadow Trio ($6.00) - I can't link directly to this because it's something special that NYX did with ipsy, which is super cool. It's the perfect shadow palette shades for Autumn, but it does have the color payoff of typical NYX palettes. Meaning not super great but decent enough to deal with. The two lighter colors are perfect, so those will be used quite a bit this season!
Evelyn Iona Cream Blush (Ash) ($18.75) - I so am in love with this blush. It looks super pink in the container, but it comes out as a great peachy-pink blush that's the perfect shade for my paleness. It applies really smoothly and doesn't transfer once you apply.
Acure Unscented Argan Oil Towelettes ($7.00) - These are something that's convenient to have, but nothing spectacular or amazing to try out. They are what they say they are, cleansing towelettes. I like that they are unscented though, because some similar towelettes smell terrible.
Crown Brushes (C224 Oval Concealer) ($7.45) - I was so looking forward to this brush, as I absolutely love Crown Brushes. Sadly, bristles went everywhere as soon as I tried to use it. RIP poor brush. This is something that I've never encountered with Crown Brushes, they are usually super soft and last for quite some time.
J.Cat #MOTD Slide On Pencil (Bronze) ($3.99) - OMG, I love this eyeliner shade. It's something different than what I already had and it lasts forever once it's applied. Definitely a new favorite and I'm throwing this in my permanent bag. I love how it's super inexpensive, which means I can buy ALL THE SHADES!
Wow, this bag was valued at $43.19 and everything was a love or a useful product except the brush. I'm definitely in love with the blush and the eyeliner, and I'm glad this bag proves that Ipsy hasn't left their makeup roots. It's definitely a great bag and I got a ton of stuff for only $10!
