July 2012 Myglam Bag

My  July Myglam bag came in the mail a few days ago and I am very pleased with what was inside! This bag is SUPER cute and unlike last month it did not smell like cheap plastic or fish!! Way to go myglam! :D


Yes to Cucumbers- Facial towels
Buxom Lipgloss- Leslie
Circus by Andreas Choice Nail Polish- Somersault
Juice Beauty-Green Apple SPF 15 Facial Moisturizer
Nu.Me- HydroPunch Hydrating Conditioner
Also included in the bag was a card containing what products were in the bag, another card promoting the circus nail polish colors and a 50% off coupon on any Nu.Me product.

This cute mesh bag is perfect to stash some of my small bottles of SPF in when I go to the pool or beach
 
Somersault is a very pretty sunny yellow shade :)

June Myglam

I received my June Myglam bag about a week ago and I'm just now getting around to posting about it.
This months bags theme was called Out All Night.
When I opened up the pink bubble package I got a huge whiff of fish smell and it made me jump back a little bit...Wasn't expecting that. As I opened the gold glittery bag the smell only intensified so I took the products out and layed the bag open for a few days to "air out". Needless to say that didn't work and the bag still smells. Too bad because it is a really cute bag. I have realized that mine wasn't the only one that smelled via twitter so I don't feel as bad now.

As I looked at the card that tells you what products are in the bag I realized my bag was missing a product...The NYX round lipstick. I emailed them and they responded back within the next day and told me they were sorry and was going to send out a new lipstick to me. I received a tracking number and it is on its way to me right now :)

Products in my bag:
(Full Size) Marbella Permanent Eyeliner Pen in color black. Retails $19USD
Philosophy Take  a deep breath oil-free energizing oxygen gel cream moisturizer. A 2oz Jar Retails $34USD
Living Proof- frizz nourishing styling cream. A 4oz bottle Retails $26 USD


SWATCHES:
Marbella permanent eyeliner pen
I have tried this liner and I do like it but I feel like the pigmentation could have been a little better. It does stay on and doesn't smudge. It dries fast and when you take it off, leave your makeup remover sitting on it for a few seconds before rubbing it off otherwise you will be rubbing forever!



Philosophy Take a deep breath oil-free energizing oxygen gel cream moisturizer
This moisturizer is really nice, its not to thick or thin and I love the gel cream formula. It seems to moisturize the areas that need it  and avoids over moisturizing areas that do not need it as much. I'm considering on purchasing a full size of this for the summer :)

HOW WAS YOUR JUNE MYGLAM BAG?

May Myglam bag

I have been on the fence about subscribing to the Myglam bag. I have heard horrible stories about the customer service and delayed or not shipped out bags, but I wanted to see for myself so I subscribed to the $10 dollar a month service. I received my bag before the estimated delivery date and nothing was damaged in shipping. So pin a rose on my nose huh?! haha
Now before I get into the actual products of the bag I just want to say a thing or two I did not like after opening the little pink bubble envelope,
1. The card that tells you what products are inside the bag does not have prices on the card nor does it have any website information to purchase the products from or coupons or anything.

2. The actual makeup bag is a little janky (is that a real word? Owell haha) Its made of cute sky blue satin type material with stamped on pink lips but it seems very thin which makes me think it will break easily. :(
OK enough bitching, here is whats in my first Myglam bag.
Miss Beauty Nail Bling
Studio Gear Complete Color Lipstick
Myglam Concealer and eyeliner brush
Philosophy Love Sweet Love Spray Fragrance- Its not in a spray bottle though, though that was a little funny. It does smell good, kind of fruity :)

 Miss Beauty Nail Bling- These nail stickers look cute. I feel like they are great for a younger age group but I don't care Ill try them out.

 (Full Size) Studio Gear Complete Color Lipstick in color Smile. It is said to plump and hydrate the lips. After looking online the price of this lipstick is $15USD which pays for the price of the bag + some. I like this color, it is a darker copper that has a hint of gold flecks, as for the finish, Im not really sure. It doesn't say on the package and I suck at guessing lipstick finishes maybe a pearl/satin mix?  The packaging is plastic with a rubber overlay which I think is nice. Ive seen studio gear products at Ulta but have never purchased any.
The Myglam brushes are eh. They aren't anything special.The one on the left, I'm guessing, is the concealer brush, I think it is a bit small to conceal anything other than a baby zit and the one on the right, the eyeliner brush,could be good for smudging shadow onto your lids or under the eyes as liner but I'm not sure if it would be good for gel liner or not. I need to test these out. These brushes were the last ones in the Myglam brush set so I'm interested in what they are going to put in the bags next month. From past reviews Ive read,more people are not in favor of the brushes to the ones that are in favor. Maybe that is why they are not continuing with them.


This bag was just OK, I'm happy with it enough to keep my subscription for another month.
