February 2022 Beauty Favorites

| Loves | February 2022 Beauty Favorites 


Another month zooms by and I'm not sure where it even went. February was a packed month for me with only so few weekends to get everything done. Beauty brands are already pushing us toward spring with their launches and there are a few exciting makeup launches that I had to partake in. While makeup is heading toward spring, skincare for me is very much winter essentials. My dry skin doesn't hold up well in the cold weather but luckily, I've found some products that have really worked for me and helped maintain my glow! 


1. Tom Ford Creme Eyeshadow Palettes - These cream eyeshadow quads are incredibly unique! The formula is unlike anything I have ever tried! This cream formula feels and looks like a powder eyeshadow but it behaves like a cream formula. This formula is so silky and smooth. It glides and blends like a dream! These eyeshadows give the eyes this soft and diffused look that is so easy to achieve and looks stunning. This formula is so luxurious and such a delight to use! This is a huge step in the right direction for the brand and it has renewed my interest in the brand again after so many failed launches.

2. Rare Beauty Warm Wishes Cream Bronzers - Wow, do I love cream bronzers! These ultra-soft and creamy stick bronzers are a dream to apply and blend! They glide on the skin like butter and they blend out to leave such a beautiful and natural bronze glow to the skin. The shade range is quite large and I love using two shades to create a ton of dimension and the perfect blend. I love the effortless formula and the way this creamy formula sits on the skin. I find myself reaching for these so often and these are so reasonably priced!

3. Danessa Myricks Dewy Cheek and Lip Palette - This cream palette contains very wearable and neutral shades that I reach for regularly. I love the sheer and buildable texture of these creams. They really do leave a stunning dewy finish on the complexion and they have a slightly tacky texture that lasts quite well on the skin. I like mixing the shades in this palette and creating my own unique cheek and lip color. This formula is very richly pigmented and while the formula isn't incredibly unique, the concept of a cream cheek palette with these varying neutral tones is rare to find. This is definitely a worthwhile palette if you love these kinds of tones and mixing colors.

4. Danessa Myricks Vision Flush Blush, Eyeshadow, and Lip Color in Nutcracker - This is my new favorite eyeshadow ever! Since I started more of a minimalist makeup routine, I've been looking for that one-and-done, super-natural eyeshadow and this is it! This particular shade looks very natural and it's just a shade or two deeper than my skin tone. The finish is a really beautiful sheeny and slightly glossy satin finish. It just looks like real skin and the shade is so universal that I use it alone or as a base for so many eyeshadows! I like just topping this eyeshadow with a sparkly shade for a natural wet-looking eyeshadow. Plus, you can use it all over the face! I'll definitely be picking up more of these!


5. Milk Bionic Bronzer - This liquid bronzer has a beautiful warm tone without looking too orange. This bronzer blends into the skin beautifully and leaves the skin with a natural glow. The gel formula really fuses with the skin and gives off a realistic natural tanned look. You don't need much of the bronzer because it is very pigmented. As a person with a deep bronzer obsession, I have tried a lot of bronzers but this one definitely has a special spot in my collection. The creamy liquid formula applies effortlessly and pretty much always looks good regardless of the base product underneath.

6. Youth to the People Triple Peptide + Cactus Oasis Serum - This hyaluronic acid serum is probably one of the most hydrating serums I have ever tried! This serum makes the skin look smooth, plump, and juicy! You need the smallest amount and it intensely hydrates the skin. I have very dry and dehydrated skin and the winters are even worse, this serum really saved my skin this year. I've tried many hydrating serums but this one surpasses most of them in effectiveness and quality! I've been a big fan of the brand lately and I was not surprised to find this was a winner!

7. Elemis Superfood Midnight Mask - This overnight mask smells absolutely incredible! It has a juicy fruity fragrance that reminds me of starburst candies. The texture is a gel cream and it glides on with a balmy feeling. The mask is instantly hydrating and it coats the skin in a rich veil of nutrient-packed hydration! Overnight, this mask deeply hydrates, smooths, and plumps the skin! I awaken with the most stunningly glowing, healthy, and plump skin! This formula feels really nourishing without making the skin feel greasy. It just feels very fresh and hydrating. It maintains the moisture in your skin for hours while you sleep and is an incredible overnight treatment any skin type can use!

8. Beautycounter Counter + All Bright C Serum - This vitamin c serum has really impressed me the past few months! I actually finished my first bottle of this formula at the end of the month and I opened up a new bottle. This formula contains turmeric, camu camu, and vitamin c. It is fully packed with antioxidants and the formula is very hydrating, as it contains some lightweight oils. It instantly hydrates, brightens, and adds a noticeable glow! I've noticed the brightening of my dark spots and skin discoloration. I really just love the healthy glow it gives my complexion and it just makes my skin feel so good! I'm very picky when it comes to vitamin c serums and this one is very impressive!

9. AveSeena Green Caviar Facial Oil - This facial oil is as luxurious as it gets! The first thing you will notice is its intoxicating and addicting fragrance! The fragrance is made up of Gardenia, Damask Roses, Tiare, and Blue Tansy absolutes that make it so incredible. The oil has a wonderfully lightweight texture and it's so nourishing and hydrating on the skin. It pairs so well with the vitamin c serum for the cold winter days. It really locks in moisture and gives the skin a beautiful glow without feeling too heavy and greasy. This is a facial oil I continue to reach for again and again! I can't recommend it enough!

10. Commodity Fragrances Velvet - Sweet, deep, rich, and creamy. This fragrance smells like the embodiment of velvet! My favorite version of this fragrance is the "expressive", which has notes of almond, rose petals, and black amber. This sweet and sexy fragrance envelops you in this very sensual and luxurious experience. It really is like velvet! I love rose fragrances and this one is so well blended with the sweet notes of the almond and the warm notes of the amber. It has you constantly wanting to smell yourself. It's an addicting fragrance and one that any gourmand-lover will appreciate! You can get 10% OFF at commodityfragrances.com with CODE: LIZ10
