Ipsy: February 2018

I love makeup!

I'm not sure if you know this, but when you become a parent, the first 2 years of your kid's life are all about them, and you start thinking you may never be you again, only mom, or only dad. Your kids need you 24/7 and you're just not sure if they will ever be independent, and then you may decide to have more kids and the process restarts, and all of a sudden it's been years and you have lost sight of your interests, your identity. Maybe you have really grasped the role of parent and you are loving it, but then your youngest turns 2, maybe 3, and they all of a sudden have independence.

It's kind of magical moment, but now your floundering. What do you do with yourself? Sleep? Netflix? All of the above, of course. But if you are like me, that's not enough. You need a hobby. That is what makeup has become for me. I signed up for ipsy and it has been so fun. Every month I get a fun cosmetic bag filled with 5 new makeup items, for only $10! The value is always way more than that. I have now been subscribed for over a year and I am pleased every month. I plan on sharing my bags here every month, feel free to add comments on things you have tried!
