june 2015 ipsy bag

hi guys! it's june IPSY BAG* time!! (theme: swim into beauty) this actually came in on tuesday, but with work i've been "nope!"-ing everything recently. ~Lin-chan ^.~

here's my impressions:

1. formula x for sephora mini in power source (4ml--mini, ret. $10.50 for 12ml [$3.50]) -- this was a lot crazier than i was expecting. this is like neon pink. i love it, but i can't use it as much because of work.
• likelihood to repurchase: not this shade
2. smashbox photo finish foundation primer (.25oz--mini, ret. $36 for 1oz [$9]) -- this is a really good primer, i've tried many-a sample of this before. it's a silicony textured primer.
• likelihood to repurchase: nah, lorac's is similar and cheaper
3. tre'StiQue mini shadow crayon in marimoto pink pearl (.02oz--mini, ret. $26 for ?? [$?]) -- after you get over the initial freak-out with the packaging and actually open it, it's really nice. it has a similar pigmentation and texture to laura mercier's caviar sticks. so nice! and this color is really pretty too.
• likelihood to repurchase: maybe
4. jules and esther vitamin c serum (.5oz--mini, ret. $36 for 1.1oz [$16.37]) -- i still haven't figured out how i feel about serums...or i'm just really freaking lazy and don't ever want to use any. this smells like it has orange oil, super nice. but i'll have to update later on this one.
• likelihood to repurchase: probably not
5. biorepublic skincare sheet masks in aloe rescue (revitalizing), cucumber breeze (soothing), and green tea (detox) (3 sheet masks, ret. $36 for set of 8 masks [$13.50]) -- i haven't quite figured out how i feel about sheet masks..either that or i need to get on the asian sheet mask bandwagon. i'll have to update later.
• likelihood to repurchase: probably not
6. black ipsy bag -- i love how plush this thing is!
