This month's Glambag came at a reasonable time. 10 points. The bag itself was sparkly gold and rather than a zip closure, it had a button-flap closure. 10 points. Inside were things that I will definately use:
NYX round lipstick in Eucalyptus
Philosphy breath of fresh air moisturizer
Living Proof no frizz lotion
Mally(?) permanent black pen liner- I won't be using this because it says not for lense wearers.
This bag was great- no perfume samples, no more make up brushes or random junk doodads.
I woul love to post pictures for you guys but my camera is taking a 'break' from his busy high profile job. Meaning he is broken.
What do you guys think of Glambag? Do you use any other beauty subscription service? What are your opinions on them?

May Glam bag....what to say.. It was a let down, if I have a monthly subscription then I kinda expect that once the money has been taken from my account..lets say May 1st, then my subscription should be in my mail box WELL before the middle-end of the month. My Glambag did not come until May 18th. Not a huge deal but Birchbox gets it to you within the first ten days of the month, Julep is even faster. I just expected it to be shipped sooner than it was, especially considering what was inside.
Now to the products.
May's Glam bag contained the last two make up brushes to the Glambag set, a Studio Gear lipstick, Miss Beauty Nail Bling and a Philosophy perfume sample.
Overall I was not super impressed with this months bag. Granted the products were diverse and interesting to try out, I think the fact that it arrived so late and that two of the given products were duds; the perfume and the nail stickers...the design was in the middle of the sticker so the only way to get the cute pink heart on your nail was to cut both ends of the sticker so that only the heart would show on the nail. Otherwise you would only get half of a heart and I'm sorry but that doesn't look good. Another thing is with rhinestone nail decals it is hard to file off the excess without ruining the design.

The Studio Gear lipstick is in the shade winter red. Which is a dark blood red color. I would have put up more photos and swatches but my camera has decided to stop focusing, so the above pictures will have to do for now. :)
I love the design and color scheme of May's bag, it is super cute and I do plan on using it for when I travel to the Olympics in July.
