I didn't see a thread for October started yet when I searched so I'm branching out and starting my first one. My bag arrived yesterday and I am pretty pleased. I love the color and feel of the bag this month and what I received.
My bag contained:
ECRU BB Beauty Balm for hair
Figs & Rouge hand cream
Brightening face cleanser
Noyah lipstick in very mauve (I think that was the name)
Jesse's Girl eyeshadow in graphite frost
I have used everything today except the face cleanser. I'll use that in my overnight bag. I love the eyeshadow color and it went on nicely and I'm looking forward to seeing how it holds up throughout the day.
What did you receive and what do you like/dislike so far?

The bag is at home so I may be forgetting something. Very pretty little bag! Products were the cleansing wipes (used already!), hair balm, lipstick in very pretty plum shade, glossy mascara and something else (round container like the balm - it might have been the hand cream mentioned above). Most of the bag was grooming products and only two "make-up" items. I remember I revised my survey after the bright blue eye shadow last month. I might have put simple so they don't send me much make-up. I'm not sure if I like that - the makeup is fun. But the colors were spot on this time. I will come back tonight and edit my post with actual products.
This is only my second month. I didn't care for the bright blue eye shadow and the peach lip gloss last month. Neither are my colors. I did try them out.

I think I got the same bag as you krc11. I think I will revise my survey... I want more make up since I got the subscription so I can change my look with things I wouldn't think of buying. |

I also got the facial cleanser, hand cream, and mauve lipstick but instead of the other things y'all got, I received a glittery nail polish top coat, and the tattooed waterproof eyeliner. Going to try the eyeliner and lipstick today. I was happier with this bag than the last one I received.

I received the Epice exfoliant, Ayres body butter, Noyah lipstick - Deeply in Mauve, Model company mascara, and OPI nail polish - On a Gilt Trip. I wore the lipstick yesterday and love it. It was creamy and kep my lips moist all day. My husband even mentioned how I still had lipstick on lastnight when I got home and I had not reapplied!  I was happy about that! I really am enjoying Ipsy a lot! Can't wait to try the other items this week as well. |

You know, I'm not complaining...but I don't think some of us should get a $3.99 eye shadow in the same month that others are getting a $14.99 eye shadow - especially when nothing in my bag is valued at anywhere near $14.99. Part of the fun of the bag for me is tallying the value of the contents against the $10 and my bag is always on the low end compared to other bags. I'm not unhappy, mind you, just kind of "huh?"
My bag: the cheapie eye shadow, the wipes, the mango hand cream, lip gloss, eye pencil and hair cream.

I got the Nicole by OPI nail polish in Gilt Trip. I thought I was getting the Feeling Very Cherry, but got the gold instead. I've been wanting to try a gold nail polish, but the description says it has a "satin matte finish". What does that even mean? I got a freebie of Essie's mattifying topcoat earlier this year and am not fond of a matte finish on my nails.
I also got the Ayres Patagonia Body Butter. I tried a little bit on my arm. It feels nice, but has a really strong smell. Not sure if I'll like it.
The Noya lipstick is really, really nice. I wish it had been a bigger sample. I won't go out and buy it because I just got a Nars lipstick that is almost the same color and has the same feel and wears as well as this one.
I got the Épicé International Purifying Exfoliant. It looks interesting. I'll probably try it out today.
And, I got another mascara. I like mascara, I really do. I just don't need to get one every month. The good thing about getting them though is that I know what I don't like. When they sent me the UD Perversion mascara that everyone was so excited about, I was happy to learn that I didn't like it and that I found that out without spending money on a full-size one.

I got:
The Beauty Balm for hair
(meant to try that this morning and forgot)
Figs & Rouge hand cream
(which I think smells good until I put it on my hands and then not so much -weird)
Face cleansing wipes
Noyah lipstick - Deeply in Mauve
Jesse's Girl eyeshadow - Graphite Frost
And I love the bag it came in!
My favorite thing I've EVER gotten in an ipsy bag is the Urban Decay Perversion mascara sample - I think that was in August.

Mine has:
1. Doll 10 Champagne Highlighter
2. Figs & Rouge Mango Hand Cream
3. Jesse's Girl Eyeshadow in Rosemary Frost
4. City Color Be Matte Lipstick in Cappuccino
5. Skyn Cleansing Cloths
I'm pretty happy with it all as I think it will all be things I'll use (most months I give 1-2 items away). And I really like this month's bag.
Huh. Never even thought to do that. Do you just know in general what all the stuff costs or do you look it up somewhere? Then again, I'm not really sure I'd want to know. I'm happy just thinking I'm getting fun little surcies for $10 each month!

Love the teal bag!!!!
I got Smashbox photo finish primer
MICA beauty cosmetics eyeshadow in harlequin
Indie lee brightening cleanser
Starkioks lip gloss in guilty pleasure
And a large bottle of perfume - Rogue by Rihanna (this is not a sample size, it's a spray bottle with a lid that came in a box larger than my palm and would not fit in the bag)
WOW! Love this month's bag!! I'm excited about everything. I've been wanting to try the Smashbox primer. The eyeshadow is a gorgeous sparkly green. The lipgloss is a perfect pink neutral.

I'm happy just thinking I'm getting fun little surcies for $10 each month! I always add up the value of my bag, too. I'm in Ulta so much that I tend to just know most of it. I find that I usually get one full size product that is worth more than the $10, though. For example, most of the nail polishes they send are full sized. |

This is only my second bag and I am loving it! I'm getting to try lots of things that I would never buy in the store. This month I got:
On a Gilt Trip gold polish - love this! My dd likes it too!
Epice purifying exfoliant - will try this tonight
Ayers body butter - will try this tonight
Noyah deeply In mauve lipstick - I like the feel of it but it's a little dark for me
Volumeyes mascara - I'll try this tomorrow
And the teal bag is really cute!

Not too thrilled with this months bag. I'll be passing most of it on.
Skyn Glacial Cleansing Cloths. (I'll try these)
Model Co VolumEyes Mascara. (I don't wear mascara)
Doll 10 Highlighter in Champagne (No interest in this at all)
City Color BE MATTE Lipstick in Cappuccino. (It looks too dark for me)
Figs & Rouge Hand Cream Mango Mandarin (first it smells fruity, then when I put it on it smelled odd. ICK)
Sigh. Another disappointing bag.

I love the bag this month. Turquoise is my favorite color!
I got:
Epice exfoliant. Haven't tried this yet.
Figs & Rouge Hand Cream in Rose Berry. I loved the smell of this, but it seemed to get really watery when I applied it. I definitely liked the hand cream from last month more.
Model Co. Mascara (Probably the only eye make-up I routinely use.)
Nicole by Opi Nail Polish in Feeling Very Cherry (LOVE!)
Starlooks Lip Gloss in Guilty Pleasure. Like the color, have not yet tried it.

Do you all remember how long it takes to get accepted when you are on the wait list? I finally bit the bullet and am now officially waiting TIA! If you have facebook/instagram, you can do the skip the wait process and get off right away. Otherwise, it's weeks to months. No way to know. * * * I got the facial wipes, the noyah lipstick, the jesse's girl eyeshadow in graphite, the BB cream, and the mango mandarin hand creme. I'm iffy on the lipstick; I can taste the castor oil (the number one disqualifier for lipstick as far as I'm concerned), but it's okay if I put it over my mongogo lip balm from a couple of months ago. I also think it's pretty dry, but again-- saved by lip balm. And I have a whole drawer full of safe, neutral, naked type colors, so I'm glad to have something a little darker. Haven't tried the hair cream or wipes yet. I don't know how to do the smoky eye, so I think I'm going to give the shadow to my sister (along with a glittery lord & berry eyeliner I got in birchbox this month, because she will do smoky eye). The handcreme wasn't bad, but bliss just re-released their snowflake scented hand cream so I have two new tubes of that to use, too. |

Cute bag this month:
Figs & Rouge hand cream
Epice cleanser (scrub?)
Doll 10 highlighter compact
Lipgloss
Silver grey eyeshadow
I'm sensitive to fragrance, was happy the hand cream is mild and not long lasting odor. It feels great! The lipstick is perfect color for me.
Love the bag!

I got the same bag as dock master. Love it all but the lipgloss. Love the bag, too! I wasn't thrilled about the hand cream but it turns out that the scent is fabulous!
my dd got the lipgloss, eyelashes (which she loves), Ayers body butter, epice exfoliant, and the Mica shadow.
I thought this month was great!

Shescrafty - I signed up sometime in the spring and got my first bag in September. I had actually forgotten about it and wondered what the heck that $10 charge was on my account last month. It took a couple days for me to figure out what it was.

I got the Starlooks lip gloss in Guilty Pleasure, Ayres body butter, Kiss eyelashes, Epice exfoliant cleanser and Mica eyeshadow in Harliquin. The bag is just OK, to me it looks like bathroom tiles.

Those who have been getting the glam bags for awhile - what do you do with all the cute bags? I really like them, but not sure what to do with them.

I've used them as part of gifts, (Usually filling them up with some of the samples I know I won't use) and on my last trip, I kept meds in one, chargers in another. |

I use them mostly for travel. The smaller sizes are perfect for jewelry or a couple bottles of nail polish, for example.

I was happy about that!
