Hey Everyone!
I know this post is a bit later then I would have liked. But as promised on my Instagram you all wanted to see my February Beauty Favorites and this one is what I had loved during the month of Love!!!! LOL!!! I am excited to share with you some amazing products that I have tried from last month in February! Some of these products are not new but they are oldies that I have pulled out and I forgot about. It’s funny when you are doing your makeup and your daughter opens the drawer beside you and you see all the makeup and you look at a product and realize wow! I forgot about how amazing this is and start using it again! Its instantly a memory of what you love and what works for you. I can’t believe February is over and we are on to March! (Disclaimer- all products were purchased by me and are my own opinion) I will not put products into this list for you to read that I do not love! Ok so now that’s out of the way let’s get into this beauty list that I have been currently obsessed with! I hope you enjoy it! I always look forward to curating a list for you all to try and hope it works out for you as it has worked out for me! So here we go…It’s my February Beauty Favorites of 2019!
Kat Von D lipsticks are sooo creamy and very well pigmented. They glide on like a dream. I especially love this color and I completely forgot about it in my collection. I saw it and brought it out immediately and I have not stopped wearing it! I do get a lot of questions as to what lipstick I am wearing almost all the time and it is definitely this one! I love Kat Von D lipsticks or makeup in general because they are vegan and cruelty free. They are a must try!
This gel moisturizer soothes the skin with a cool from the gel and feels like a refresh to your dry skin. This can be used on any skin types and I love how you barely need a lot. A little goes a long way. The feeling when I put this on is a non-greasy feeling. I love using this product before makeup application. You should definitely give it a try! They offer this in a trial size!
This bronzer is the perfect bronzer shade for a lighter a complexion. I sometimes love to use it if I don’t want to create a big makeup look. I love dusting this on my eye lids and just adding a subtle glow so I don’t look like I’m wearing nothing. I love how cute the packaging is as well. Benefit also offers this bronzer in a trial size.
4. Tarte Blushes - First Class & Sweet
Tarte blushes are my absolute favorite blushes in this world. I love how pigmented and you don’t need a lot to the cheek and they glide on like a dream and blend so perfectly. These two have been my go to for the past month. I love that I can add this after my contouring and blends seamlessly on my cheeks and it doesn’t look like I have a bruised cheek. Lol! I love that they offer smaller travel sizes for you to experience instead of buying a big one from Sephora. Make sure you try these colors they are absolutely gorgeous and perfect for spring!
5. Makeup Forever Step 1 Radiant Primer
This primer is such a similar feel to the MAC strobe cream. I love the smell and I love how it feels when you apply this before your foundation. I love primers and this one is a good one! You definitely don’t need a lot of it. If you make it to your local Sephora make sure to ask for a sample. That’s why I love Sephora so much they provide you with samples. That is just simply the best and you won’t regret it!
This concealer IS LIFE GOALS! I honestly cannot believe that I waited so long to try this concealer. I was sooo excited when I ordered this form the Tarte website and the amount of time for when I ordered it to when I received it was so fast in the mail. I did order all three so the sake that I know I am in light but I wanted to try out the undertones to see a difference etc. But all three of them are awesome and all provide such amazing coverage it is equally as good as the Estee Lauder double wear concealer. So incredibly good and I found the amount you get in the tube will last you a lot! Especially when it comes to application you barely need a lot. A little goes a long way!
7. Smashbox Highlighter Palette
This palette is such a subtle but buildable highlighter palette. I love that it was in collaboration with Casey Holmes. I love her videos and her vlogs. I have linked the palette that is pearl because this is the one I use the most! Because she collaborated and did two colors. Since I am lighter skin tone at the moment… pearl is where its at! I love highlighter palettes when they give you different shade options for each different makeup look, as well as smaller for travel instead of one highlighter. Make sure you try this out! I know you will love it! It’s perfect if you don’t wear a lot of makeup.
8. Tarte – Lights Camera Lashes Mascara
I love this mascara so much! This mascara is always a treat when I pick it up. I love how it lengthens and curls my lashes up. I also love that its vegan mascara and it doesn’t make my lashes clumpy by the end of the day and it lasts so long. This mascara is very pigmented and it is to die for! It’s my absolute favorite! They have trial sizes as well if you want to try it!
And that’s it! It is a short list, but definitely has a big bite and I know you will love them!
Let me know in the comments below what are your favorites from last month. I would love to hear from you!
Also if there is a product that I should try or missed let me know!
Thank you so much for reading this month’s beauty favorites and I hope you have a great and wonderful day!
XOXO, Leslie
