MAC Extended Play Lash Mascara: I know I suggest a new mascara almost every month, but I’m such a big believer in owning different ones for different looks, as well as mixing together.  This is an amazing mascara to use during the day as well as a second coat to other more dramatic formulas.  The ultra slim wand helps you reach all of your lashes and provide incredible definition and separation!  For an ultra black formula, try the Extended Play Gigablack Lash. ($17, MAC and department stores)

GlamGlow Supercleanse Daily Treatment Cleanser: With my birthday upon me (the big 3-0), I’m making sure to take care of my skin more than ever.  Since I’m already such a huge fan of the brand’s array of masks, I’m ecstatic to try their first ever cleanser.  It is a mud-to-foam formula which is gentle enough to use everyday, in between mask treatments. ($39, Sephora)

T3 Featherweight Luxe 2i: If you’re in the market for a new blow dryer, this should be at the top of your list!  For someone who isn’t great at doing their own hair, I’ve been using it for a couple months now and can see such a difference compared to my old dryer!  It promises to dry your hair 90% faster than conventional dryers, as well as reduce frizz while boosting your hair’s health, body, and shine.  I love the included brush as well! ($250; Sephora and Folica.com - which by the way is currently 25% off site wide including this dryer with promo code XOXO at checkout. 25% off people!!)

Butter London Lippy Moisture Matte Lipstick: These new lipsticks by the cult favorite nail polish’s brand are amazing!  They are rich, moisturizing, and offer great coverage!  They include specialized pigments that help provide long-lasting, non-drying color that doesn’t feather or bleed.  I especially love ‘Abbey Rose’, which is a full coverage rose-pink cream and great for everyday! ($22, Ulta and buttlerlondon.com)

Essie Limited Addiction Nail Polish:  If you’re been searching for the perfect red to wear this Valentine’s Day, look no further!  The shade is a darker red so it’s not too bright for the winter.  Show your nails some love with this beautiful polish! ($5-9, Ulta and drug stores)

Happy February!
