WHAT'S INSIDE MY JANUARY 2016 IPSY GLAM BAG! #JanIpsyGlam

Check out what I received in this month's IPSY GLAM BAG! It included 4 out of 5 products in FULL SIZE this month! Ipsy is a monthly subscription service that is only $10 a month! You take a quiz so they can establish what type of style you are into and do their best to reflect that in your glam bag each month. It isn't just a one bag works for all type of thing. What you get may not be what the next person gets. Plus, their customer service is pretty amazing.

 Last month, I had a product that leaked during shipment and ruined other products. A quick email and they were happy to replace the damaged products and their response time what awesome. Within a week, my products were replaced. Be sure to read until the end where I will add up the value of the contents to see if you think it is worth it. On that note...here is what I received in my January ipsy "All Eyes on You" Glam Bag.

CVS Clearance!!!

It's that time of year again! CVS is having their annual 50-75% clearance sale on select makeup items, nail polishes, etc. Look for the round pink and green stickers on products.

Also, keep an eye out for price tags crossed with red or black marker. Sometimes they haven't gotten around to putting the clearance stickers on yet or may have run out of them since they will be marking down a lot of products.

The type of clearanced products may vary by store, but one thing goes for all stores...the good deals go fast!

Think stocking stuffers for the makeup lover in your life. As someone who enjoys both makeup and great savings, I would love to see what you get. Feel free to post your awesome finds on my Facebook page www.facebook.com/mayday1101 or tag me on Twitter @may_day1101 or Instagram @mayday1101. Be sure to use the hashtag #cvshaul

Can't wait to see what you find! Don't forget to share this post with your friends. :)

Tip Tuesday: Pretty Up With Pink

I'll be the first to admit that I'm a major weather person. By that I mean, my mood can be brought down by dreary days and a cloudy sky. The same is true if it is too hot; it makes me tired. I don't know why I am that way, but I have been as far back as I can remember. I enjoy being outside so I'm not too happy that I get that way, but I can either sit and sulk or do something about it. Because of this, I have found a few ways to get myself out of that mood and on with my day.

On those days when you just feel under the weather or tired, try to lift your mood by putting a little bit of pink on. Whether it is a touch of blush, some lip gloss, jewelry or even a piece of your wardrobe; the added color is sure to bring a little pep to your step.

By wearing a pink blush or lip gloss, you have a more awake and lively look to your face. Be sure to keep it light because pink can be overdone. As for an outfit, you can go several different directions. A hot pink is great if you like an edgy look. Or you could even go with a soft pink for a softer more feminine look. Oh, the possibilities!

Here is one day look and one night look to give you a little inspiration to throw on some pink.
