I’ve read mixed reviews on the Ipsy Glam Bag for the month of March so now, it’s my turn to share my thoughts too.
This month’s theme is called Très Jolie. I wasn’t sure what Très Jolie meant so I had to ask my friend “Google” and I found out that Très Jolie means Very Pretty!
Let’s start with the bag itself. I am very pleased with this glam bag, it’s beautiful and elegant looking. I like the honeycomb pattern and the peach colored bag makes it even prettier. You can definitely fit a ton of products in this bag!
What’s in my bag?
Cake Desserted Island Supreme Body Mousse – This body mousse smells amazing, it made my skin feeling soft too, it’s cruelty-free and is made in Canada. However, this body mousse didn’t impress me. It’s not hydrating or moisturizing either.
-
The whipped and airy texture (yes, like the dessert kind of mousse!) feels so light and dreamy, never greasy.
-
The tropical scent, a combo of vanilla and coconut, gives us all the vacay feels.
- Ingredients like coconut oil and mango seed butter quench even the driest skin with the moisture it needs.
JeNu High Tech Beauty Marine Collagen Mineral Gel – This mineral gel on the other hand, smells too strong but it feels really nice and hydrating on the skin. I like the dropper applicator because it helps me use just the right amount of product and it doesn’t go to waste.
-
This formula has marine collagen to help promote your skin’s natural collagen production (AKA fewer wrinkles).
-
Need a little instant gratification? There’s also hyaluronic acid! This draws water to and plumps up your skin, making lines look way smoother almost instantly.
- Much love to the dropper applicator, which minimizes the likelihood of contamination since you’re not sticking your germy fingers into a jar.
Skone Cosmetics Luxe Pro Blending Brush – I’ve said this before and I’ll say this again, I really enjoy getting makeup brushes in my glam bag. This blending brush is super soft and since this is from Skone Cosmetics, it’s even better!
- These super luxe synthetic bristles are not only cruelty-free, they’re also insanely soft.
-
Fun fact: The brand name means beauty in Afrikaans.
- Gotta’ heart the rose gold accents. So chic!
So Susan Blush & Glow – I got the shade Rose Rust and this blush is surprisingly pigmented. No fall-outs and it’s very smooth too. The shade is pretty but I enjoyed wearing this as an eyeshadow more than a blush.
-
Like the mood ring of blushes, this has multi-chromatic pigments. Real talk: It gradually adjusts to the perfect color for your skin tone…no more spending hours trying to find the right shade.
-
Fall-out free, the color will stay exactly where you put it. Unlike our keys…bobby pins…
- No matter your preferred tool technique, this can be applied with either fingertips, a flat foundation brush, or a sponge.
tarte cosmetics tarteist quick dry matte lip paint in rosé – well, well, well!! This is probably one of my favorite items in this bag. This lip paint in the shade Rosé is stunning. Now, here’s another lippy to add to my tiny collection. 🙂
-
Vegan-friendly, this brand defines eco-chic.
-
Whether you want bright and bold or nice and neutral, there’s a shade for that.
-
A precision applicator makes even crazy colors easy to apply without drawing outside the lines.
-
The velvet matte finish nails all of our Goldilocks criteria; neither too matte, nor too glossy.
- An extra coat can change the whole look and pump up the color dramatically, always a nice option when you’re going from day to night.
My verdict?
I’m pleasantly happy with my March Ipsy Glam Bag! For $10.00 a month, I can’t complain. How about you? did you like your March glam bag?
Nice bag! I like the look of that mineral gel. I also got the Skone brush and a tarte lip paint (but my shade was Delish).

Oh I believe you! That’s why I ended up sharing my bag a month later coz I usually receive my bag late. I am getting my April bag and I’m done for sure.

I am seriously considering cancelling as well. The sad thing is that I saw what I was supposed to get in the March bag, and it was really good.

Yeah, Cake is a Canadian company! I love their body mousse – so good and smells amazing.
The Skone blending brush looks really useful – I think that getting a brush is way better than makeup or skincare, in these bags.
I can see how that blush would make a gorgeous eye shadow. As a blush it would too frosty looking.
That Tarte lip paint is so pretty!!! I can see why it’s your favourite item in this bag!
