"The desire to create is one of the deepest yearnings of the human's soul."  -Dieter F. Uchtdorf IPSY's March glam bag theme is to CREATE, Priscilla Witte designed the beautiful artwork on IPSY's March bag. She wanted the design to reflect unique beauty, hip hair, different shapes, lots of different styles and interesting people. The artwork was black and white but they've included markers to keep the creative vibes going. So go ahead and get those creative juices going! For my glam bag I decided to keep it colorful and vibrant! It was fun and relaxing to add some color to it. CITY COLOR COSMETICS Glow Duo Looking for a summer glow?

What does sexy mean to YOU? With magazines and social media, we have been told what sexy is in an unrealistic way and with fake expectations. Don't always believe what you see because it is sometimes accomplished by photoshop, airbrush, an app, (yes there are apps out there that make you look voluptuous with an itty bitty waist.) and last but not least plastic surgery. So it's time to just embrace our natural beauty because we are perfectly imperfect. This months IPSY glam bag's theme is Unzipped, because being sexy isn't limited to a certain size, shape, or age. Sexiness is authenticity, real, and confidence. Let's unzip the way we think about being sexy. Let's define it in our own terms. No rules! No photoshop! No restrictions! Just be 100% sexy your way! The bag is a beautiful blush pink adorned with black lace trim. It is so romantic perfect for the month of love, don't you think? The five items in my IPSY glam bag; were a hand moisturizer, a lipst...

It's BoxyMail Time, this month's theme is Galaxy Glow. It is definitely giving me all the Space Jams vibes. If you aren't familiar with BOXYCHARM it is a beauty subscription for $21 a month. Usually you get 5-6 full size products! Based on the theme I thought that the products were going to be vibrant, glowy, or have a neon effect. There were so many variations on their IG that I was not sure if I was going to like this month's box. The five items that were included in my box were a highlighter palette, shimmer veil, eye pencil, glitter, and trio brush set.  (Disclaimer: this review is NOT sponsored by BOXYCHARM, I bought this with my own money, all opinions are mine.
