Project Ipsy Month 9 Update

Hello lovelies, I have another update on my project ipsy. This has been a different kind of month for me in that I have really started to look at these products and question whether I actually want to use them or if they are even still usable. So there are a couple more "empties" for this update than normal.


Avene Thermal Spring Water - I used this on the days where I was far too lazy to get up and go wet my makeup sponge in the bathroom so I went through it pretty quickly I think. I prefer something that isn't so strong of a spray and more of a mist so I won't be purchasing this.

Hang Ten tanning oil - I have confirmed that this makes my skin breakout. I always get a rash after using it so I will definitely be staying away from tanning oils in the future.

NYX Butter Lip Balm - I said I was going to declutter this and well I am. I have lip balms that actually moisturize my lips to get through and that won't stain everything red, so definitely won't be repurcahsing any of these.

em cosmetics waterliner in Turquoise - I was recently decluttering my collection and found that I have I think it was 10 green eyeliners. Quite frankly no one in their right mind needs that many so as I was swatching all of them to see which I would get rid of I realized how uncreamy this on is. 


Pixi Flawless Beauty Primer - I have been using this a lot lately. I am really enjoying a lit from within look and this is perfect for it.

Pure Brazillion Leave in Conditioner - I could have considered this done because it isn't coming out of the spray nozzle anymore, but it is liquidy enough that I can pour the rest out to use it.

Absolute Lip Balm - I have hit some serious side pan and am going to keep working my way through this. I don't think this is something that I can have done by the end of the year though. It takes a while to get through it.

Ofra Shadow in Bliss - You can't tell in this picture but I am probably less than a week away from hitting pan on this shadow. It is a gorgeous rose-gold/champagne color and I don't mind using it. 

St. Tropez Gradual Tan - made a huge jump in progress with this. I decided that using it on my legs is better than my face because it was giving me a pretty orange tint to my face that I wasn't a fan of. 

Vasanti Face Exfoliator - I have been enjoying this well enough. I do prefer something that has more skin care properties in it and this just isn't covering it for my blackheads and breakouts. 


Chella Ivory Lace highlighting Pencil - I have been really enjoying using this to clean up my brows and so that is helping me get through it a little faster. 

J Cat Big Lip Pencil in Caramel Mocha - Have been enjoying this as a purse lippie and since I have been out a lot lately that is working to get me through it. I have switched it to my makeup stand and it may make its way to my back pack to use at school.

Bare Minerals Marvelous Moxie Lipstick in Get Ready - I have been enjoying this a little more than I used to and I think it is because I am a bit tanner. I am going to have to try and get through it while I still have some color to my face.

Starlooks Amethyst eye liner - I have been really experimenting with this eyeliner. Makes for an interesting brow product!

NYX Slim Pencil in Silver Shimmer - Again reaching for this as a brow product. it also looked interesting on the eyelids. Still need to do a little more experimenting though.

Mary Kay eye crayon in Turquoise - I used this as a base for a blue eyeliner look that I did and it came out really pretty.

It Cosmetics Brow Pencil - This is not my favorite eye brow product, but I am working through it.


Not Soap Radio lotion - I think this would make a really great lotion to through in my back pack.

Trestique mini lipcrayon in Nantucket Nude - I am really hoping that it won't take me too long to get through this, but I have had it as a fail in another project pan.

La Vanilla roller ball in Pure Vanilla - I feel like this would be a great scent for the Fall/Winter season. Also I have been really enjoying using roller balls.

be a bombshell lip balm in French Kiss - there is a bit of this lip balm left but I think I am going to keep this for work. I get through a lot of lip balm that way. Also I thought it would be a good substitute for getting rid of the NYX one.

So that was a really long post. I have officially made it through 32 ipsy products. That is a huge jump from last month and even though a lot of that number is products that were decluttered, more of it was products that I actually used up. I definitely feel like I will have another I think 4 products done from this list as well as the products that I am making my way through that aren't here.
