I better write about the Ipsy January Glam Bag before the month is up. I am such a huge fan and supporter of Ipsy. I love the idea, and for $10, I think what you see above is worth a ten spot. If you want to sign up for Ipsy after reading this post, you can use the referral link, and we all win.
I basically loved everything in my Ipsy bag this month. I haven't really had any complaints, though, so I've really loved them all. The only complaint I really have is the size of the bag for my own personal use, but I am still happy because I can gift the bag to someone else who can use it. My favorite glam bag was in September of 2014, because it was the most spacious. I have only been an Ipsy member since September of 2014, so I am unsure of previous bag sizes. I still think all of the designs are adorable.
Below is a list of all of the things that came in my bag. I love how Ipsy will customize your bag based on your eye and hair color, along with skin tone, and other details. It makes the bag feel more personal, and you are getting items you can actually use. I hope y'all enjoyed this post. Stay tuned for details on the February Glam Bag.

I love shopping online at Sephora. Not only can I shop from the comfort of my home, but I love using Ebates to get extra money back, along with all of the free stuff. I have not been in the actual Sephora, so I do not know what kind of perks are different in-store vs. online, but I should find out soon enough, since there is a Sephora here in Dallas in the Galleria Mall. I'll get back to y'all on that one.
I shopped at Sephora because I have been wanting to try the First Aid Eye Duty Triple Remedy. I was trying to find the cheapest deal online, and I think you might be able to save more if you buy it through Dermstore if you put it on your favorites list and purchase it that way, along with using your Ebates return. If anyone wants to sign up for Ebates after reading this blog post, you could use my referral link, and we both win.
The other item I purchased is the Soap & Glory Sexy XL Extreme Plump Collagen Lip Shine. This is the first of the Soap & Glory products I've tried, but I really like it. The gloss has a nice minty flavor, and is just sticky enough that it isn't goopy, but gives off a good shine. I also love that the gloss tingles. I'm not sure how plump my lips get, but they certainly get a bit of a flushed pink look to them, even though it is a clear gloss. I do like the way my lips look, so it was worth the buy.
All of the other items I scored as freebies. I gave the Jay-Z Gold cologne to my boyfriend, after I realized it was men's cologne (I don't know why that didn't register). I am obsessed with the larger B. by Balenciaga perfume sample. It has a fresh woodsy note that I just love. I am reminded of how I love the Jo Malone Wood Sage and Sea Salt, but this has a twist with a fresh lily of the valley and edamame note at the start. You have to wear it around to get the full experience. I also love the Dolce by Dolce & Gabanna perfume, as well as Tory Burch's new fragrance. The full-sized bottles are so lovely. The Tarte Timeless Smoothing Primer is wonderful, of course!
I hope you all enjoyed this Sephora Beauty Haul. I would like to start creating more haul posts. They are so fun, and I love watching other Youtubers, or reading other bloggers talk about what they bought. Keep shopping, y'all!
