I received my October Lip Monthly bag yesterday. I'd heard lots of things about this subscription service, both good and bad. I only paid $5 for this bag so I was hoping there would be at least one awesome product in this bag.
When I opened the mailer, there was an extremely pretty makeup bag instead of the too-small box that I'd heard about. The bag was sturdy but did have a strong plastic smell to it, but it lessens with each day.
The second item I pulled out of the bag was by Noyah and it was a lip balm in the flavor Cherry. I can always use more balms, though I hate Cherry but this doesn't have a strong scent so it's fine. I do like this product and I'm happy it was included in my bag. This balm goes for $3.99.
The third item in the bag is the JCat Fantabulous Lip Stick in the color Honeycrisp, which is a nude color. I'm pale so nude colors look terrible on me. I'm going to try to mix this with a pink and see if I can make the color better, but as it is, this is another of my least favorite products in the bag. The lipstick is $2.99 on the jcatcosmetics site.
The fourth lip product in the bag is by deVine shimmers cosmetics which uses ingredients in wine to make their products. They also have lotions and body butters. The color I got was Pinot Noir, which is a grape shimmer that doesn't have a lot of color. The product card says to pair it with a rich plum color for fall. I'm just now getting into darker lip colors and I can't wait to find the perfect lipstick to pair it with. It is $4.95 on the devineshimmers.com website.
I also received an eyeliner by L.A. Girl in a brown black shade. I've used this a couple times, but it's slightly hard to use. Instead I've been using it for my brows.

First item is a product by Starlooks, which is the lip scrub. The description card says it's the perfect product to prep your lips for the 'perfect nude lip.' Unfortunately, I don't wear nude lips, it isn't a trend that looks good on me. Back to the product. I've tried lip scrubs before and they've been sticky. This isn't sticky and it doesn't work all that well, nor does it work as well as it should. This is probably one of my least favorite products in this bag. On the site, the lip scrubs sell 5 for $10, so this product would be $2.
