Lip Monthly Unboxing - June 2016

18:55 Unknown 0 Comments





Hello lovelies :) 
So happy to receive another month of lip goodies from Lip Monthly.
Compared to the previous month, I actually prefer this bag more! 

Just a quick recap on Lip Monthly: 
Lip Monthly is a monthly subscription program (found: here) that costs $12.95/bag and ships internationally. Each month you will receive 4-5 full size items that are valued at $35-55. 
And as usual: keep reading, because we both have discount codes for your first purchase!




1. Peony Cosmetics Highlighter ($22)


This pinky, golden highlight is great with pink undertones or light to medium skin. It can be used on the cheekbones, and also on the eyes as eyeshadow/highlight! I find the twist packaging super easy to use, and the size is perfect for on-the-go. It works great under foundation or on top to give your skin a natural healthy glow for the summer :)


2. Jelly Pong Pong Lip Butter ($18.95)
 


Super creamy in consistency, this colour is very similar to the highlighter! The shade is a very light nude baby pink with a hint of peach. I love the packaging design, although the hard cardboard case makes it easy to dent and scratch. I found it very moisturizing but it's probably a lipstick you will want to reapply after a couple of hours.

3. Be a Bombshell Lip/Cheek Stick ($16) - Sweetness



Watching past Ipsy unboxings, I'm very excited to try the Be a Bombshell multitasking lip and cheek stain! The shade was a medium coral, with some small gold flecks that were not very noticeable once applied. The shade 'Sweetness' was very opaque and very easy to blend on your cheeks, and not drying on my lips.  


4. Chrislie Lip Crayon ($13)

This neutral berry brick red shade is flattering on all skin tones, and has a slight vampy look once applied. I'll definitely get more use out of this shade come fall, especially because the texture is also as moisturizing as a lip balm! This is the shade I tried on in the video and by the end of filming, my lips felt great. The only con was that it does not stain, and with reds you have to be careful with the colour traveling outside your lip-line. Since the lip crayon is more of a "lip balm" texture, I worry that it may smudge. 
**Edit: As I used this product more, I noticed that after a while, the product actually "sets" a bit and doesn't become so balmy. It doesn't dry my lips but its not so slippery as it used to be!
