Pretty Wicked: Do You Dare To Explore October’s Theme?
Is October the best month of the year? The answer is obviously yes. Okay, we might be a bit biased in our answer, because not only does it commemorate IPSY’s birthday (we’re turning ten!!) but it also brings an electric spirit of creativity—glitzy glam looks, ghoulish special effects, and spooky manicures. This month’s theme—Pretty Wicked—is an ode to all things Halloween and stepping outside of your comfort zone, whether that means daring to wear black lipstick or concocting a DIY mask at midnight. In honor of the best month ever, we’ve got a Halloween-ready roundup of spooky inspo and skincare must-reads (like why you might want to try a vampire facial).
But wait, back to that whole turning ten thing! ICYMI, we’re celebrating a decade of Glam Bags, beauty discovery, growth, and iconic moments. There will be IG throwbacks and exciting announcements (AKA big giveaways) that culminate with an all-out party in New York City. So please enjoy this walk down memory lane with us as we take a look at IPSY past, present, and future.
