Jaebum Fangirl had the chance to review their Blue/Green Paisley Duffle Bag
Price: $20.00
Product Description: This lightweight Duffle Bag is perfect for camping, after-school sports, the gym and so much more. With a large zippered storage area, two durable handles and an adjustable shoulder strap, this bag can carry almost anything! · W22 x H12 x D11.5 · Durable zipper closure · Side zipper pocket · Adjustable nylon strap; 2 hand straps · Made from woven polypropylene · Wipes clean with damp cloth · Recyclable · Imported
My Review: When I received this duffle bag, I was at first surprised. It was a lot lighter than I imagined. Despite my initial surprise, I immediately fell in love with this bag. The material is made by very thin water-proof material that makes this the perfect duffle bag for the gym or outdoor travel. Now that it is summer, I needed a duffle bag to take to the beach. The size is perfect for all my beach accessories – towel, suntan lotion, sunglasses, snacks, bikini.
Isn’t the color absolutely adorable? The bright fun color reminds me of sorority accessories. It is the perfect blend of fun and cute. I am so excited to take this duffle bag with me to vacations this summer!

๓●•۰ MY REVIEW ۰•●๓
Lift, Shape, & Glow (Matte Light) – A Matte version of Mally’s three step process to shape and define the face. A subtle light shade for cheekbones, a shape to define the hollow, and a glow for the apple of the cheek. All in a gorgeous compact with a full face mirror.
My Review: This three step compact has everything you need to finish your look. After using foundation, I defined my face by using “shape” (middle) to color and define the sides of my cheeks. This gave my pale skin some nice bronze color that was subtle enough to appear natural. Next, I used the “lift” right to give my cheeks the rosy hue that made me look younger. It adds a nice feminine touch! Lastly, I used the “glow” (left) to highlight my cheek bones, my cupid’s bow, and my brow bone. The glow shade made my face have that hollywood finish. I love the way it made my face glow. All three are matte and finishes in a soft oil-free look. I also love the big mirror that comes with the compact.
Lightwand Eye Brightener – Eight hour of sleep in a wand! Freshen up your look any time of day with The Light Wand Eye Brightener Powder Pencil. One end has a creamy, long-wearing pencil that instantly lightens and brightens. An extra-soft dabber on the other end lets you highlight the eye with illuminating powder. For all skin tones.
My Review: I am in love. Seriously. This eye brightener is the perfect highlighter for the inner corners of your eye. There are two sides to this lightwand. One end is almost thin crayon that is great for your inner corner. Use this and your eyes will appear instantly brighter, as though you have slept for eight hours. This is especially amazing for me because I am sleep deprived a lot and I do not want to go to class or work looking tired. On the other side, there is a soft dabber that I used for my water line. Using illuminating powder or highlighters on your water line will make your eyes appear larger.
Xtra Hold Maximizing Mascara (Black) – Plump up the volume. Mally Beauty’s maximizing mascara is a super-smooth formula that delivers lush, gorgeous lashes that are curled to perfection. Two different brushes allow you to control the look–the slim brush seeks out the tiniest lashes and brings them into play, while the maximizing brush makes for a voluminous, dramatic effect. Net weight 0.32 oz.
My Review: This mascara is not only a great mascara, but also a fantastic idea in one compact package. What makes this mascara so unique is the two different brushes in one product. I have thin lashes, especially around my inner corners. This is why the slim brush on one side is so fantastic; the brush is designed for my tiniest lashes. As for my longer lashes, the other side has a maximizing brush that will make my lashes longer and thicker. After using this mascara, my boyfriend asked me whether I was wearing fake lashes! This is how amazing this mascara is.
Finish Line Professional Luminizer – Mally’s Finish Line Professional Luminizer is all the makeup artists’ secrets of beautiful light in a simple compact. The special featherweight cream to powder product is designed to hover over fine lines, wrinkles, and pores, diffusing light and minimizing their appearance. It’s also the perfect accent that can highlight cheekbones, lift eyes, plump lips, or just add a flash of light to spark up your look.
My Review: By far my favorite product out of all the Mally Beauty products that I received. This perfectly highlights my skin, making me appear like I am going to the red carpet. I dabbed my fingers on the luminizer and applied it on my cheeks and down my nose. After, I took out a foundation brush and used the product all over my face. My skin glowed afterwards. This is one of my favorite cosmetics of this year.
Lip Magnifier (in Nude Rose, Tulip, Pink Petal, and Soft Nude) – Mally’s Lip Magnifier combines luminous color with a creamy, ultra fierce gloss. It’s refreshing formula smooths and hydrates leaving lips feeling silky and ultra soft.
My Review: What I noticed immediately after using these lip magnifiers is how soft my lips felt afterwards. It almost has a matte finish. After using balm to moisturize my lips, I used the Lip Magnifier to give my lips a little color. These Lip Magnifiers are great for those people who do not want to overdo their lips by using lip stick, but are more interested in having a bit of color.
