may 2016 ipsy bag

hi guys! today, my may IPSY BAG* arrived!! w00t! (theme: destination chic) and so far it's lookin like a winner! ~Lin-chan ^.~

here's my impressions:

1. smashbox x-rated mascara (.1oz--mini, ret. $22 for .3oz [$7.33]) -- i was very interested in this mascara when it came out, and i'm excited to try it!
• likelihood to repurchase: maybe
2. pacifica natural mineral coconut eyeshadow trio in natural beauty (skinny dip, crush, lovely) (.07oz--near full size, ret. $12 for .1oz [$8.40]) -- it's not entirely clear which shade is which, but based on research online and the way it was written on the box, i'm going to venture to say that skinny dip is the top, whitish one, crush is the coppery one, and lovely is the plummy one. skinny dip is your typical chalky pearly whitish shade that's really close to my natural skintone. crush and lovely actually were the shockers here, considering the formula of the previous pacifica shadows ipsy's sent me. they're super gorgeous and pigmented without primer! so nice!
• likelihood to repurchase: not if it's this difficult to figure out what shade is what and they're not all in a nice set like this (these aren't currently sold together like this)
3. hikari cosmetics shimmer bronzer in radiate (.25oz--full size, ret. $17) -- cheap and bulky packaging aside, this is a super pigmented product! i'm actually blown away by how pigmented each quadrant is, and swirrling them together is so pretty too! can't wait to try this out. this product is marketed for use as individual shades or blended together for both eyes and cheeks.
• likelihood to repurchase: maybe, might not have to
4. eva nyc hungry hair oil treatment (.4oz--mini, ret. $20 for 3.38oz [$2.37]) -- i'm definitely very interested in trying this out. the scent is amazing!
• likelihood to repurchase: maybe
5. the organic pharmacy antioxidant lip balm (7ml--full size, ret. £12 [~$17]) -- i typically go for waxy, emollient balms that stick around for a while, and this ain't one of them. this is a very thin balm that gets immediately absorbed into your lips and i hate it. it has a light scent to it, and has a kind of vaseline look to it (not the feel!). i'm not a fan though.
• likelihood to repurchase: no
6. ipsy bag -- i love that they sent out different color variations of this bag and that i got the blue one! the travel theme is super cute! not totally sure how i feel about the envelope style, but it's still functional.
