HI GUYS! :) Happy March! Man, it is cold here in Jersey and the snow just isn't letting up. I really hope that it starts to warm up by the end of this month because I am itching to wear some spring clothes! Any who, I only have a few faves from this month. No discovery break throughs but just a few products that I really like and have been frequently reaching for! Hereeeeee they are!
I've really been enjoying this little cleanser by La Roche Posay. Something that I absolutely despise about my skin is my acne scars. They aren't terrible but ugh they irk me. One day I WILL get them lasered off. This cleaner is meant to brighten any hyper pigmentation and it has a micro exfoliant (although it does't feel like an exfoliator, which I love) which also fades scars. I really like how it foams a ton!
'Ballet Slippers' by Essie! I know that everyone and their mother have already fallen in love with this color but I first picked it up this month and have been LOVING it. Such a perfect pale pink.
I am hesitant to mention this product because it was part of MAC's holiday collection this year....but....if you can manage to get your hands on it somehow....you should def pick it up! The swatches in this pic do not do this palette justice but the pigmentation of these colors are gorgeous and I have been grabbing it a lot when I want to do a smokey eye. I've found that MAC's shadows tend to be a little rinky dinky when they throw them in a special edition palette but that was not the case for this palette. I love it! Plus my sweet bf gave it to me for Christmas....I kind of forgot I had it and then I was very pleased when I rediscovered it in my makeup collection and opened it up!
OKAY. This one might be a breakthrough product for me this month. These new Smashbox liners. If you are a winged liner junkie like me then you probably know to stick to your liquids and gels when creating a fierce cat eye. WELLLL. This liner def changed my world. LOL I can do the QUICKEST cat eye with this thing...and it's a pencil! I have never been able to create a wing with a pencil before this! Each time you untwist the cap to open this, it sharpens so it is always a very sharp and precise tip. I have 'Sumatra' which is a dark, dark brown. I really want to pick it up in black. They also have like a milllionnn colors of this thing.
UGH. Sorry guys, another limited edition product from MAC. This is 'Legendary' by MAC which came out with their Marilyn Monroe collection. But basically, the point of this favorite is just, PEACH BLUSH. I have been loving it lately. And MAC has many other gorgeous peach blushes.
Urban Decay came out with this new line of Naked glosses which are to DIE for. I've never been much of a gloss person but I can pretty much say that these are the definition of the perfect gloss. They are soooo pigmented as you can see in my swatches. You can wear one of these without anything underneath and you are good to go. They are truly a non-sticky gloss. I think that they make my lips look so full, plus the color lasts so long on your lips. The top swatch is Lovechild a beautiful pink and the bottom one is called Walk of Shame, the perfect nude color. Not to mention, the packaging is beautimous.
I am a contour freak. I absolutely laaaav contouring and lately I've really been feeling the whole cream contour thing. If you want a very strong and defined contour then you will love this too. Sometimes after using this to contour I also set it with a regular powder bronzer. This is a Select Coverup concealer by MAC. It is in shade NW40. Keep in mind that with MAC I am usually NW15 so this baby is wayyyy darker than me. On top you can see what it looks like when blended into my skin and the bottom is just a regular swatch before it's blended.
And das alll!!! Thanks for reading my Feb Faves guys! What have you all been lovin lately!?
