Ipsy - Cailyn Tinted Lip Balm is NOT Full Size

I keep seeing this and I do not understand how it hasn't come up before.

The Cailyn Tinted Lip Balm you receive is not full size. I mean first off, look at it. It is only filled half way. And that's with it pulling away from the sides. If you ever paid $19 and received something half full you wouldn't be happy would you?

Second - It states that it is .14oz or 4g.
BUT
Look at the Mica Beauty Tinted Lip Balm (which is the exact same product, that's another story). The same we received was 2.5g. The Cailyn should be almost double the size. But when you compare the two, they are either the same size or the Cailyn one is smaller. It is not BIGGER than the Mica product. The full size Mica Beauty one is 4g (same size as Cailyn) and in the same package as the Cailyn.

Finally, there is the YouTube video by Nix92585 for the Cailyn Acid Pink tinted lip balm, and right in it she states the one she received in her Ipsy has half the amount. Here

[Edit] Dani from CoffeeBreakWithDani has also figured this out. Check out towards the end of her Ipsy unboxing for this month. Here

So please, understand you are not getting a full size, you're only getting half at the very most. It is not worth $19, it is worth $8.50 at the very most.

Also, these points are in regards to the April 2014 bag. I do not know what the ones in the September 2013 bags looked like.

"19 Reasons" Theme

I think I missed the reasoning behind this theme. I believe it has something to do with the typical "New Year, New You". This is what I received:

Ipsy November 2013 - First Impressions

I'm not even sure if I finished or even blogged about last months bag...Sorry about that.

I don't currently have my phone on me to take pictures so I will be using them directly from the Ipsy website.

I am excited and pleased about this month's bag!

Glam It Up was this month's theme, and the products do fit into that theme.

Ipsy - September 2013 - First Impressions & Review

I'm back!!

I decided to rejoin Ipsy after seeing what they had been doing since I was last getting their monthly subscription bag. When I last received one they were still going by MyGlam. They have since switched to the name "Ipsy". They're still $10 a month. But they've also started utilizing their "quiz" or survey to help customize each person's bag each month. I don't know how well that is going just yet...but I'll explain that when it comes to one of the products.






This is what the bag looked like this month. I find it super cute. The inside isn't lined but that's okay. I've been using it inside my purse as a little bag to keep my money and important things in. I've also kept the eyeliner and mascara in it just incase I need one of them during the day.
