The only thing in this bag that was of any real interest to me is the NYX Lip Smacking Fun Colors lipstick. Mine is in the shade Eucalyptus. It looks really pretty in the tube as well as on my lips. It is a vibrant fuchsia color that is almost on tone with my hair color. I really like the color as well as the feel. It isn't too slick or greasy on my lips. I also like that it doesn't seem to have a scent. I really like the vanilla scent that MAC uses in their lip products and I've found over time that other lip products with scents, particularly lipsticks, tend to turn me off when they aren't that same scent. So this NYX lipstick is right on point and may even end up in my bag for day to day because it is so gorgeous!I will try the moisturizer and the styling cream as time permits, but I'm not a fan of Philosophy products in general, so I won't hold my breath on that one. I hope it will be better than some of the other moisturizers I've tried since it is a gel cream forumula. The liquid liner in the bag is definitely subpar to my standards. I am not a fan of any of the liquid liner pens I've tried so far, and this is actually the worst of the bunch. The liner pen by Mar Bella is runny, bleeds on application, and is no where near being opaque.
Now on to this month's MyGlam bag itself. I have only received one bag that didn't smell TERRIBLE since joining MyGlam and that one was my first bag back in February. Usually the bags smell of some foul plastic but this month's stench reached a new low. This month's bag smells like rotten fish or hair glue, either way you categorize it, IT STINKS! Additionally, the bag is so flimsy and the magnetic clasp on it seems two steps away from being a brad in fabric.
Over all, I think this month's bag is halfway decent. Unfortunately I don't forsee any other uses for this bag and it will probably get trashed. As for the products, I think that MyGlam did a pretty good job with the products included in this months bag with their only 100% miss for me being the eyeliner pen. What do you think of this month's bag? Are you hoping to sign up for MyGlam or do you use other subscription based services? Let me know what you all think!
