October 2015 Ipsy #AlterEgo

This months theme for Ipsy is Alter Ego, in honor of Halloween! I freaking love Halloween, so I was hoping to get dark, bold makeup in this months bag but got surprisingly wearable shades. Let's take a look at what I got!

For what seems like the third month in a row, I only received 4 out of my 5 samples. I looked online and I was supposed to get some sort of hand cream, so I'm not completely crushed because I don't really care to receive lotions. But seriously, get your shit together Ipsy. If this continues I might think about cancelling... probably not though.

Anyways, rant over! On to the samples:

Dr. Brand Microdermabrasion Scrub

Mica Beauty Cream Shadow in Bronze

Emite Make Up Professional Slant Tweezer

theBalm Meet Matt(e) Hughes Long-Lasting Liquid Lipstick in Committed

I'm so excited I got a sample of theBalm's liquid lipstick! I've been wanting to try it for sometime now, and the shade Committed is a beautiful peachy-pink nude. The scent is INCREDIBLE. It smells straight up like Thin Mints. Yassssssss.

The Mica Beauty bronze shadow is also a stunning bronzy gold that I'm interested to try out. I've found the Mica Beauty formula to be pretty dry; I personally don't mind because it means less creasing but others might hate the tugging feeling. This would make a nice eye shadow base for sure!

The Emite Make Up Tweezers seem pretty nice, and remind me of my hella expensive Tweezer Man ones. Aother pair is always nice to have!

I love Dr. Brandt products, so I'll definitely try this scrub and let you all know how it is, most likely in my empties. :)

I was a little let down this month because it hardly seemed Halloween or "alter ego" themed at all! The winner this month for me is obviously the liquid lipstick, and the cream shadow is cool too.

What did you think of this months bag?
