It’s time for me to share the products I really loved during the month of February!
I also wanted to clarify that I am not picking products just to share — I will only feature products in these monthly posts that I truly loved and used a lot during the month. If there is a month where I didn’t gravitate toward any products more than others, I won’t have a monthly favorites. Does that make sense? I hope so!
With that being said, I only have three products that really stood out to me this month. They were all relatively new purchases for me, and I just got into a rut where I was using them on a daily basis. Let’s start from the top!
My February Beauty Favorites
Longwear Matte Liquid Lipsticks — prices vary, Anastasia, LA Splash, & Ulta — These are the products I have been most excited about this past month. I’ve always enjoyed matte, longwear lip colors, but this past month I just started purchases several new ones that have been popping up since the start of the year (I’m sure you’ve heard about them!)
Also a favorite is Innocent Vixen from LA Splash. The line is a more affordable option ($11.95) and while they’re a bit thicker and don’t feel as light, they still wear well and look great.
And I can’t forget my Lime Crime Velvetine! I actually originally purchase Wicked and Salem along with Cashmere, but this is the only one I kept. I’m not entirely fond of the formula, but my husband likes the color on me — so of course I wear it! 😉
The last one I want to tell y’all about are the Rimmel Provacalips ($6.69). I own, and love, the colors Make Your Move and Heart Breaker. They’re definitely the most drying out of the three, but I love how well they stick to my lips! 🙂
Maybelline Dream Lumi Touch Highlighting Concealer — $7.99, Ulta — While I don’t think this concealers my undereyes at all, I do feel like it does a lovely job highlighting the areas of my face. I tend to use this when I am just having a regular day, nothing special, and don’t mind if my undereyes aren’t completely hidden. I’ve been grabbing it a ton this month!
Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso — $8.49, drugstores — This one really surprised me, as I didn’t think I would like this as much as I do. I bought it on clearance several months ago, but didn’t pull it out until January. I was afraid it would have too much ‘sparkle’ in it for me, but I was pleasantly surprised to see that it gave me a very natural, every-day flush to my cheeks. I’ve been wearing it almost constantly this month!
Not too many this month, but the ones I did love I feel like I ‘loved’ them every day, lol! I’m looking forward to discovering more new products this next month.

Great favorites! I really have to get my hands on one of those Anastasia Liquid Lipsticks, I have already been eyeing several colors of them. I do the same thing with my favorites, if I don’t use anything different or have stand out products, I just don’t post one. 🙂

I’m loving the favorites for this month! I really want to get into lipsticks so I am starting a journey to find the perfect formula/color/brand for me! I will definitely check some of these out!
Joanna Appel says
I am definitely going to try the Rimmel Provacalips. Good price range for me. I really like the idea of lip stain but I am not sure which one to buy so this is helpful! Can you tell me how this differs? I know nothing about make up really!

I’m a huge fan of the Maybelline Lumi Concealer! It’s great for brightening and highlighting under the eyes. I’ve been eyeing a few shades of the Rimmel Provacalips! And the packaging is just so cute.

I’d love to try the Maybelline Dream Lumi Touch Highlighting Concealer but I have dark rings under my eyes so need really good concealers! But for spots and stuff I’m sure this product would be perfect.

I’ve been hearing a lot about Rimmel Provacalips, I am thinking to give it a try soon. My favorite product this month was definitely my Rose flavored Labello, it did a great job on my lips to prevent chapping.
Chelsea says
I REALLY want to try those Anastasia liquid lipsticks! I’ve heard such good things. And the Lumi Touch concealer is amazing for highlighting, I went through mine so quickly and have to get another one!

Hello there! I would like to know if Innocent Vixen is a good dupe for Pure Hollywood. Do you have a photo comparing them? Tks
Katie Garvin says
Marilia, Innocent Vixen is not a dupe. It’s close, I would say, but the Pure Hollywood has a bit more pink and warmth to it than the Innocent Vixen — that’s pretty neutral.
