the Ipsy MAY Glambags are out!!! Got mine last week and loved every last item in it! Items came in a beautiful summery bag with a teal green/orange chevron print. My bag included the following:
Pacifica Coconut Crushed Pearl bronzing butter (deluxe sized sample)
Smelled awesome. Very sparkly on skin. I couldn’t really tell if it gave a “bronzing effect” since I am already pretty tan. But I really loved how it smelled and moisturized!
Juice Beauty gloss in Pink
This is a new brand that I have found through using Ipsy that I really like! This month’s bag included organic gloss. I got a shade of pink (at least that’s what it says) but it was more of a dark pink/plum color. Very lush and sparkly on. Has a great gloss texture. Full sized!
Zoya nail polish in “Piaf”
A bright, pastel yellow shade with flecks of white and sliver glitter. Zoya is a salon grade brand that I used to use frequently. This shade is perfect for summer with just a subtle bit of shimmer to it. Full size.
NuMe Finishing Serum
Conditions and seals your hair for use before heat styling! It smells great. Very thick oil style serum to be applied to damp hair. Also included was a gift certificate for $110 off and a free heat sleeve for a styling tool for use on the NuMe website!
Yaby concealer in light
This little sample fit perfectly in my GlamRx pallette from a previous bag! Creamy and light. Perfect to cover some trouble spots without having to wear a full face of foundation. Also goes perfectly under a BB cream or foundation!
Bonus Item! I also got an Urban Decay Moondust eyeshadow in Stargazer! I got the bonus item for having two referrals before the bag shipped out! It was a full size sample! I love how sparkly and irredescent it is! The color I got was yellowish/gold and compliments my purple hair perfectly. These new shadows come in 7 shades!

Don’t forget to take the survey so you get things that are just right for you!
So believe it or not, they say you should wash your hair LESS in the summer. Crazy right? The heat can strip your hair of all its natural oils. So can pools, the beach and UV rays. Dry Shampoos can often give you a bit more time between washes. So which ones are your favorites? I named my top three here (based on price, scent and texture.)
My favorite is Lulu Organics hair powder in Clary Sage and Lavender. It’s just a powder so it can be harder to get in (I spill more than I get in my hair) http://www.luluorganicsnyc.com/hairpowder.html $30
My second pick is by Not Your Mother’s. It smells great and is easy to spray in! Sometimes shows a little too white on darker colored hair, but a good brush through will fix that. $4.95 at Target
And lastly is Suave at roughly $2 a can it really does the trick! Comes out clear rather than white powder so it’s great for all colors. And it doesn’t have much of a scent it just neutralizes oils. Avail at most drugstores.
I recently modeled for a Dr Sketchy even nearby in Akron and my friend Dionne was there with her wonderful jewelry and trinkets! I absolutely LOVE her stuff and I figured others would too. The top pic is of two necklaces she gifted to me (that I will most likely wear for shoots!) One is Star Wars and the other is Spider Man with and antique looking brass skeleton key. Both are made with quality materials and I adore the steampunk look. She does all types of different imagery (see middle pic) From nerdy stuff, to sci-fi and even Nightmare Before Christmas. The bottom photo is an incredible corset she designed! I love the rib cage element and the red rhinestones denoting drops of blood. See her site if you wish to order! You can order necklaces and corsets on her Etsy http://www.etsy.com/shop/MySmittenBoutique?ref=seller_info or feel free to email her for custom inquiries sales@mysmittenboutique.com
Fill my inbox! I’m ready to answer your questions!
Got a question for me? Feel free to ask! If it’s a beauty product I have tried I’ll be happy to talk about it! I’ve tried LOTS of new stuff lately from masks, to shampoo/conditioner to lip gloss. If you’ve seen me wear something for a shoot and wanna know where it’s from, I’ll be happy to tell you!
So shoot me some questions! MAC and Clinique are my favorites. I currently subscribe to Ipsy and Glossybox. So let’s talk beauty and fashion! Don’t forget to tell your friends to follow.
I’ll be blogging about swimwear and this month’s Ipsy Glambag later this week!!! xoxoxo <3 Ms. Poison
Oops! I totally blogged about the same suit twice.
Summer is almost here! And that means pools, beaches and fun in the sun! What kind of suit will you be rocking? One of my favorites in this Han Solo suit by Black Milk clothing! This photo is also a sneak peek for a set shot by Posh Portraits for the upcoming summer issue of The STNDRD magazine!
It’s no secret I love wacky shoes. Snagged these ones (and the bodysuit) from AMIclubwear.com sign up for their email and get 45% off this weekend!
Im thinking of ordering my Ipsy box for May tomorrow! I know it comes with a couple full sized products, does everyone get different colors or is it all the same products?
It does vary! Each bag can have different items and colors. But usually at least three of the five items are consistent for each bag! My fav part is that you can cancel at anytime so it can’t hurt to try it.
May the 4th be with you!!! Happy Star Wars day! I’m celebrating by wearing my AT-AT leggings by Black Milk clothing paired up with some Deandri Ginger heels, and a Rock Rebel Star Wars bling necklace (not pictured)
