Pop Sugar Must Have

Pop Sugar is offering a limited edition box for $100.
This ones theme is Resort Box. So its like a vacation in a box.
I am really want to order it but since I was caught up in the Target credit scam my bank has issued me a new card that I am still waiting to receive.
If I do get it soon I will be ordering this hopefully it doesn't sell out by than.
 
Things I am expecting in the box. Sunglasses, Some type of sunblock, may be a beach wrap.
 
What do you think will be coming in this PopSugar box?

IPSY February 2014

Ipsy is a Beauty subscription that send you a makeup bag every month stuffed with products for just $10 dollars. Most of the items are usually full size but you do receive samples.
 
This months bag was a pretty pink with a pink leopard print inside. Very fitting for Valentines

 
Pop - Plump pout mini $16 in Peony Petal. It was a pretty color very nice for spring/summer.

 
Zoya Polish $9. I am in love with color, its a little darker when on the nails but its perfect for fall.

 
First Aid Beauty Deep Cleanser $27. I have not used this yet but am looking forward to it. I love trying out new cleansers and for this price it better be a good one.

 
City Color Matte Blush $2.99 I am in love with this blush the color is gorgeous! The formula is a velvety soft. Will definitely be wearing this color through the spring and summer.
City colors will also be at IMATS NY and I cant wait to get my hands on their other products.
 

Tini Beauty Cream Eyeshadow $18. When I first saw this I thought it was a lipgloss and I was thinking this was going to be kind of funky color for the lips. But after I realized it was a cream eye shadow I was in love! It is very pigment and stays on for very long with out creasing.

 
With the pop lip gloss alone you are over the price for what you pay for. Ipsy is a great subscription box and I highly recommend it.

Color Me Monthly February 2014

Color Me Monthly was nice enough to send me a February box to test out for you guys.
 
Those that don't know of Color Me Monthly. It is a monthly subscription box that sends you a new nail polish color every month.  They have different subscription offers. The monthly one is $7 dollars a month. They also offer half a year and full year.
 
Color me monthly is run by 2 Sister who wanted to bring great  polish that is enviorment friendly.
Non-toxic and carcinogen-free
Never tested on animals
Vegan
Eco-friendly
Made in the USA
Shipped FREE!
 
It comes in a small Brown box.
 
When you open the box it is stuffed with tissue paper so it does not break while being shipped.

 
It comes with a card where you are able to swatch your polish. I like to use my nail wheel to see the consistency of polishes.  I love the formula and with one coat it was good to go, it was not streaky or thin.

 
The color is a real pretty red. Definitely perfect for Valentines Day.

 
Thank you Color Me Monthly for the polish. I was very pleased with the quality of the polish and believe it is definitely worth the $7 dollars.
