Today's Tutorial Tuesday is a hot Summer look, I'm calling it a Summer Smolder. I wanted to create a look based on The Summer. It's bright, it's shiny, it's hot. I used warm colors to make a fiery smokey eye and then used an illuminator mixed in with my foundation to create dewy skin and finally, I topped ALL of that off by bronzing and highlighting with the Anastasia Beverly Hills "Glow Kit". Hope you enjoy and please let me know any other looks you want me to do or colors you would like to see me use. Products used (in no particular order)

My Hiatus From Ipsy I took a three month break from ipsy. It wasn't anything that they were doing wrong...Well, actually I'm lying. I was getting WAY too many cleansers and moisturizers. Like how big is my face that I would need THAT much moisturizer? Between ipsy, my constant ULTA redemptions, TJ Maxx and Nordstrom Rack trips and general love of shopping, I wound up with so many products that I hadn't even opened or tried out yet that I needed a break. I had no more room for five additional products a month coming to my house. So, December 2017 was the last bag that I received before I paused my account. Which, shout out to ipsy! That is an awesome option. So- I paused my account for three months, they don't charge you as long as the bag is paused. They didn't bother me, email me reminding me or anything like that. They just gave me my space - (exhales deeply)- so why can't all relationships be like that? I actually had forgotten about ipsy until I received an email to track the bag. It was like an ex texting you out of the blue. ipsy came back with a BANG! I'm not saying we're engaged but, we are very happy. Enter the April 2018 bag. All of that being said, since restarting my account, I've launched a YouTube channel, so the ipsy bag reviews have changed. I will not only review each product in detail here but, ipsy bags will not be featured as part of my First Impression Friday series on the YouTube channel. So, welcome to the new ipsy bag review. Social Butterfly April 2018 brought me the beautiful Pink "Social Butterfly" bag. It's so cute! So, let me preface this by saying that, my family's last name is "Papillion", so I am extremely partial to anything that has a butterfly on it. I like this little bag as a clutch, it's perfect for Spring and Summer. This was a pretty eye heavy bag, containing an eyeliner and a bending brush. It also came with a cleanser, a hand lotion, and a setting powder. Overall, they did a pretty good job! Check out the video and each of the reviews on the blog and if you like what you see, go ahead and become an ipster! You can sign up right here, BE AN IPSTER and check out the video below. SKIN&CO ROMA Truffle Therapy Cleansing CreamSo first of all. I LOVE the packaging. It's just so simple, elegant, and classy. I know that when something features Truffles, it instantly evokes a high-end feeling and the font and wording on the outside add to this. Also, I LOVE the scent, it just smells so fresh. I've used this brand before, I used their Truffle Cleansing Oil, which I had mixed feelings about, I have used many makeup removers that got the job done better than this one but, it was free from an ipsy point redemption so I didn't complain. This cleanser is extremely moisturizing. It actually feels more like a moisturizer than a cleanser. That being said, one issue that I have with it, is that it is a CLEANSER, not a moisturizer and I feel as though, it's not the best cleanser. It didn't give me a deep clean at all. I tested this one out before I reviewed the rest of the glam bag. I have been using it in my travel makeup bag and I love it for after a flight or a long time traveling, your skin will dry out and this will really put the hydration back into your face. Unfortunately, it would be far better as a moisture mask then it is being marketed as a cleanser. Therefore, even though, I truly do love this product, it's just not good as a cleanser. This being said..it gets no diamond. 🚫🚫🚫 But, don't take my word for it. I didn't see the size they sent us on the website but, the full size is 35 buck - check it out yourself - Skin&Co. Ciate London - Starstruck Double - Ended Stamp Liquid Liner This product was very weird to me. I just didn't get it. Ciate London is one of my favorite brands as far as eyeliners go, their "Fierce Flicks" eyeliner is my go to black liner. I also like their nail products (all of which I've received from ipsy). They are always super smooth and very pigmented, this one was no exception. The issue with me, came with the stamp portion of it. I was excited when I first read the name because I assumed that it would have been like a cat-eye or a wing stamp. You know, to help those of us who have trouble trying to get that perfect straight wing. That would have been a great and helpful tool, right girls? Or...we could make that stamp into a star...Yes, that's what it had....A STAR. Now, I personally have no issue with stars. I rather like them actually but, I just can't picture myself doing a look with a star on my eye. Maybe for the "Fresh-tival" look that I did a while back for Tutorial Tuesday, a Halloween look or a KISS concert. I don't know when, why or where I would need that. Now, the actual liner itself was great. Went on easy, easy to control, didn't skip and very pigmented but, due to the fact that they kind of pushed the stamp as a big feature. I can't give this one a diamond. 🚫🚫🚫 So - I couldn't find this exact liner on their website (maybe someone realized that it was dumb) but, you can see all of their eyeliners at this link Ciate London. Delectable by Cake Beauty: Ultra Nourishing Hand Cream Ok. So, when I saw a hand cream in my ipsy bag, I sighed. Lotions and potions aren't usually something that I get excited about with ipsy. I really lean on ipsy for makeup and makeup brushes. However, after trying this hand lotion, I am in love with it. The smell! You guys, I can't even talk to you about the smell. The scent is called "sweet mint and cream" and it smells exactly like that. The best way that I can describe it is, it smells like mint chocolate chip ice cream! And on top of the smell, it's a great product in itself. A nourishing hand cream is a good way to describe it. With doing my make up, especially on shoot days, I wind up washing my hands multiple times in a day, combine that with constantly cleaning up after my sweet little yorkie Louis, and working with kids as a teacher, my hands get extremely dry with all of the washing. But, this fixed my little hands right up. I really am itching to try it on my feet too, maybe in a pedicure. I love this product and truly, I have nothing bad to say about it. It gets a diamond for sure. 💎💎💎 I'm looking at their website, which I love the design of it, and this product is listed for six bucks there is a lot of other snack-worthy things too on the site. If you sign up for the email list, they will also give you 20% off of your next purchase. Check it out here - Delectable Glamour Dolls: Romantic Rose Blending Brush Glamour Dolls. Just saying the name gives you a certain vibes right? You feel like quite the badass. I have used their brushes before. I have the Lisa Frank edition blush brush from them, which also came from ipsy. Their brushes are always beautiful. This one is no exception, it's mostly cream but, has rose gold trim. So, elegant. And then the bristles are white and pink. Just a gorgeous brush to have on your vanity or, in my case, at your glam-station. So, I used this brush for the first time during this taping to blend out my eyeshadow and let me tell you, it's awesome! I used it for eyeshadow but, I really feel like this would be a good tool for blending out concealer. Or to apply powder when setting anything on your face. It's pretty cool. The blush brush was cool but, this brush is awesome! I love it. I'm already kind of replacing a few other brushes with this one. It blending my crease and transition color so so well. It's like it spreads the pigment around but, just where you want it to go. I also like the way it fit my hand. It was very easy to use. I have nothing bad to say about. Diamond all the way. 💎💎💎 It's kind of steal, coming in at just four dollars - if you want it, you can check it out here. Glamour Dolls BellaPierre Cosmetics: Banana Setting Powder BellaPierre is a cosmetics brand that I have grown quite used to. I now have their Cream Highlight and Contour kit,( which if you remember correctly, that kit beat out Anastasia Beverly Hills kit), as well as, their blush (which I got in another ipsy bag), and now I have a banana setting powder to add to the collection. So, I said this on the video but, I'll say it again here. I was so incredibly happy with the sample size that they gave me. It was so big for a sample. I loved the packaging , it's very elegant in it's a appearance. It has a chic black top with BP on the top. It's very classy. Now onto the actual product itself, it is a very very smooth powder, like its been milled and milled and milled. It's super fine. What through me off about it was the fact that it has glitter in it. When I see a setting powder, literally the first that comes to my mind is to bake with it, which I did. I was a little nervous to try to bake with glitter but, it wasn't too bad. It felt different on my skin from my Revolution or Cover Girl loose powders. It was fine to bake with but, I think it might be better as a spot setter. Like just to set my under eye or a blemish, something like that. I love this powder though. So - it gets a diamond. 💎💎💎 It might be a new or improved product because it's ALL over their website home page. Check it out here! Bella Pierre Overall- Final Grade So, I loved the actual little glam bag itself. Its well made and so so cute. Most of the products, I loved. And the ones that I didn't love, I didn't hate, I just had some weird issues with them but, I'm sure that I will use all of the beauty samples in this bag until they run out. All of them are good practical items. So overall, the April Ipsy glam bag gets a diamond. They did a really good job this time. 💎💎💎. Until next month, you guys!
