June 2014 Ipsy VS. BB5

Hi Everyone! I'm a little (a lot) late posting this, but its one of my favorite posts each month! As you know, Ipsy and Beauty Box 5 are both beauty subscriptions that send you beauty products/samples to try each month.

Ipsy:
$10/Month, beauty survey for them to give you products relevant to YOU, free shipping. 4-5 Full size/Deluxe samples each month, Access to Ipsy community and coupons, All products come inside of a makeup bag each month!

BB5:

$12/Month OR $30/3 Months (making it same price as Ipsy..this is what I did), No customized to you, no online community, free shipping, 5 Full size/Deluxe samples each month.

Let's bust into the boxes!

IPSY:

FAVORITE ITEM: NYX Butter Gloss

LEAST FAVORITE ITEM: Be a Bombshell Cosmetics Mascara

The NYX Butter Gloss is amazing. It's not sticky, or clumpy on my lips. It's also very light feeling.

The Mascara literally came with a one way ticket to the trash. 1. It smelled soooooo terrible, I could smell it in the bag before I even opened it. 2. I decided to put that crap on my eyeballs anyway and it was just terrible. The formula sucked, the brush sucked, the mascara SUCKED. It is in the trash.

The Dove Dry Oil worked really well on my hair, I like it a lot. The Jesse's Girl liquid liner is great and it has a nice fine tip. The Skinn Facial Cleanser works well but I really hate the smell of it. 

Also, the bag this month was Rebecca Minkoff and it was SO adorable.

Overall, not my favorite Ipsy bag and I hate Bombshell Cosmetics. Everything I have gotten from them has gone in the trash. Ipsy sends out a lot of their stuff.

Beauty Box 5:

FAVORITE ITEM: Nicka K Nail Polish

LEAST FAVORITE ITEM: Glam Natural Mascara

The Nicka K New York Polish Is Great. I had gotten one over the Winter in an Ipsy bag. It lasts for a long time and has great color. I Used this color for my 4th of July Nails and I will use it on my toes soon too!

The Glam Natural Mascara was just pitiful. It did nothing for my lashes. I love that the ingredients are all natural, but what a disappointment. 

I like the design essential curl stuff, but it smells really bad. The Eslor Face stuff was just two foil packet samples. I'm honestly not sure if I like it yet or not. It didn't really do much for my face. I like the Sedona Lace Blender brush. However, they jammed it in my box so the bristles were all crooked. You can see that in the pic. I'm trying to reshape it though since it is such a nice brush. 

Overall, not my favorite Beauty Box 5. I do like the nail polish a lot though.

NOTE: I will not be doing BB5 next month. I want to try a new Subscription box. There are so many out there! I do, however, recommend BB5, It is great! I did not cancel because I didn't like it. I just want to try something new. 

Any Suggestions on which one I should try?

Thanks for reading! :D
