Thoughts on Bag: The tinted balm you need chapstick first since its on the drying side. I don't see myself using the leave in conditioner since I have oily hair. I look forward to trying out the moisturizer. It says its gentle enough for sensitive skin (which i have) and my face has been drier lately. The scrub doesn't have the greatest smell but i'll probably use it as a foot scrub. I like the color of the smooth shadow but don't know if i will wear it since most warm colors don't look good on me.

Thoughts on Bag: I loved almost everything in this bag!! I love the color of the lip balm. Some stated it was drying to the lips, but I wore it over a chapstick. The mascara is awesome!! Makes my lashes look so long!! The eyeliner is ok.. I'm not a big fan of pencil liners, with the exception of UD 24/7 Liners. The nyx shadow was wah wah wah.. lol It was a sheer silver and had to keep patting it over NYX Milk to get it a opaque coverage on my eye. It also creased really fast and I wore this over UDPP.

Brow Pencil, Eye Pencil, Mascara, Lip Balm



I'm wearing everything in this month's bag along with a nyx black pearl pigment i got in another glam bag.

Paired with Big Apple. :)
