Ipsy August 2014 GlamRoom Update

This month Ipsy has let users see their GlamRoom's early by sharing on Facebook and following some YouTubers.
If you aren't familiar with Ipsy, it's a monthly beauty subscription service that sends 4-5 full size or deluxe sample sized products. It's only $10 a month! If you'd like to subscribe, using my referral link, CLICK HERE!
Here is what I will be getting this month:
I am pretty happy with this bag. After seeing spoilers, I didn't think I'd be excited, but once glamrooms opened and I saw my combo I was happy! Plus, the bag looks SO CUTE this month. Totally my style.
My products will be:
Coastal Scents Forever Blush Sample Duo: I.Love.Blush. Give me all the blush, all the time Ipsy! The one shade looks a bit too bronzer-ish for me, but still absolutely happy I am getting a blush (and I like Coastal Scents products, so win-win).
J Cat Flying Solo Eye Shadow Single: J Cat gets a pretty bad name after a horrible glitter palette that was sent in a past Ipsy bag and the fact that it's a cheap brand. I'm ok with getting a cheaper product (that way if I like it I can buy lots more!). I was hoping they'd send some of the amazingly bright colors that they have available, but it seems they are just sending the one neutral shade. Looks like it might be a good browbone color.
Jersey Shore Sun Mongongo Lip Conditioner: The spoiler this was from was all lip balms. I prefer colored lip products, since my lips are unevenly pigmented. Overall, this is a 'meh' item, but I guess it can't hurt to have another lip balm (especially with winter coming in a couple months).
Klorane Dry Shampoo with Oat Milk: OMG. I hear people talk about this A LOT and it's usually good! I can't believe I am getting this, since ipsy typically hates me and gives me the least impressive item in a spoiler LOL I like dry shampoos and am excited to try this brand.
Urban Decay 24/7 Velvet Glide On Eye Pencil: Another OMG! item. The spoiler for this was this liner in Plushie (PURPLE!!!) or the UD Perversion Mascara. I really, really, really wanted this liner and figured I'd get the mascara instead, but nope! I actually got the item I wanted! Typically, I hate getting pencil liners, because they always send black and I have a bajillion black pencil liners. I have never tried any UD liners, so this just makes my day.

So, after having a horrible bag last month (I seriously got my least favorite item from every spoiler), I am much happier this month. I don't think I have looked forward to an Ipsy bag this much in a long time.
Those of you who are subscribers, what are you getting this month? Are you happy with what you're getting? I know a lot of people aren't happy :( -and I don't blame them-
