Ipsy Glam Bag - October 2013

This is my second Ipsy Glam and I'm still loving it! These are the items I got and my thoughts on them.

• Buxom - Full-On Lip Polish in Dolly - Honestly, I am not a big lip gloss person. I've never really been. I'm just not happy with look lip gloss gives me. Now, I have been curious about Buxom products. When I tried this out first thing I noticed was now thick and sticky it was. It has a sweet creamy smell and after applying this product it gives this slight tingle to the lips. Kinda like the the tingle you get after brushing your teeth...? And it does linger there for a while. In my opinion, it's a good tingle. All in all, interesting product but not my cup of tea.
• Zoya -Nail Polish In Giovanna - Lovelovelove nail polish! That is no secret. So I was immensely excited to try about this product (pictures below). It applies very nicely and becomes opaque in 2 coats. There was only one draw back I found from this polish because of how pigmented it is, it's very staining. It didn't stain my nails probably because I used a base coat but it did stain my cuticles in the removal progress. I don't think there's really any way to avoid this but be warned!  
• Nourish Organic - Deeply Nourishing Coconut & Argan Body Lotion - This lotion grew on me. The scent reminds me of Pina Coladas. At first smell it gives this sour/bad scent. It's hard to explain. This was very offsetting for me. After giving it more of a chance, I got used to it. The after smell is wonderful but at first application it's... odd. I don't know how else to describe it. As far as how the product performs, it's moisturizing and not at all greasy. My hands seems to adsorb it quickly. I can see this being wonder for winter.
• Sexy Hair -Blow Dry Gel - Haven't tried this. I don't really have the urge to. I may gift this to a friend in the future.
• La Fresh - Eco-Beauty Oil-Free Face Cleanser Wipes - Gave this a try and wasn't too impressed. I didn't like the scent and I felt as thought they dragged and tugged at my skin when I used it. Not for me but I will try to use them up, maybe I'll keep them in my purse.
