Ermmm, for some reason the October edition of my Ipsy bag was forgotten in first the wedding hullabaloo of October and then November disappeared followed by “holy crap” it’s Christmas! I have a growing pile of subscription boxes that I just have not shared with you all so I hope I’ll be able to get them in before 2013 is out!
La Fresh | Oil-Free Face Cleanser Wipes
The La Fresh® Eco-Beauty® Oil-Free Face Cleanser Wipes gently cleanses and detoxifies skin. Contains pineapple, vitamin E, cucumber, marshmallow, oat, aloe and chamomile extracts. These wipes are biodegradable, compostable and are packaged using clean, renewal solar energy. Paraben-free.
Thoughts: You guys know I love facial wipes. I use them whenever I’m feeling way too lazy which is probably 3-4 days out of the week! I find it interesting that there is pineapple extract in these wipes, but they look super promising!
Full size: 30 wipes/$9.99 (on sale for $7.99 on the La Fresh website)
I received: 10 wipes/$3.33
sexyhair | Blow Dry Volumizing Gel
The Sexy Hair Blow Gel is an alcohol-free gel that thickens hair while adding volume. It also helps retain moisture so your hair never feels dry. Delivers a light to medium hold.
Thoughts: I feel like I have A LOT of hair products now and generally when I blow dry I don’t use a lot of product if any so I’m not sure if I’ll be using this all that regularly…I’ll try it tonight though and see how it goes…
Full size: 50mL/$5.00
I received: * FULL SIZE*
Zoya Professional Lacquer | Neve
Part of the Fall 2013 CASHMERES & SATINS Collection, these shades are created to work together with this season's most stylish runway designs and luxurious fabric blends. These ultra long-wearing, glossy nail lacquers by Zoya are BIG5FREE - free of toluene, camphor, formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin and dibutyl phthalate (DBP).
Thoughts: Love it! Great addition to October’s Ipsy bag and I love the colour I received! I would have loved Giovanna as well!

I received: 2.0g/$11.99 (the container looks awfully full-sized to me though!)
Coastal Scents | Medium Shadow Brush
The Coastal Scents Shadow Brush is a medium sized brush made out of natural fibers that is wide in shape and condensed to allow an even distribution of eyeshadow on the lid. This professional cosmetic brush can be used for shading the crease and highlighting the brow bone with complete precision.
Thoughts: Looks and feels like a decent brush!
Full size: $2.49
I received: *FULL SIZE*
Total Value of October Ipsy Bag: $30.81
The winner for me was definitely the Zoya polish and possibly the face wipes, but the other items weren’t bad at all!
