February 2013 Beauty Favorites and a Giveaway!

Hi Bellas,

It's time for February Favorites!  I've got a few items that I'm really loving this month that I definitely recommend that you check out and they're all super affordable.  Hit read more for the full post!


Check out the video!


Milani Bronzer XL 02 Fake Tan
I have recently rediscovered this Huge Bronzer duo after it's been sitting in my stash for over a year after copping it at a beauty blogger event goody bag.  I absolutely love the darker shade for contouring.  The lighter shade also makes a pretty cheek color.  I have been looking for a contour alternative to MAC's blunt blush and I found it!
Jack Black Intense Therapy Lip Balm - Mango and Mandarin
I had to steal this lip moisturizer back from my boyfriend for this video lol.  It's truly amazing and I actually like it better than my HG Aquaphor.  It not only moisturizes, heals and softens but it smells wonderful.
Covergirl 3 in 1 Foundation
I must admit, I'm a drugstore foundation convert!  I am pretty darn impressed with this foundation.  I won't say too much though because I'll plan on doing an official demo and review.
Ziaja Body Butter
This really does go on like butter!  The scent is mild but the way it applies is a dream - it sinks immediately into the skin, moisturizes and the texture is heavenly.
Maybelline the Flash Clean Clean Express Makeup Remover
I saw another YouTuber review this and picked it up at Wal-Mart.  Let me say, wow this blows my other makeup removers away.  It's a lotion/gel formula and feels amazing on the eyes.  It takes off all make and makes your eyes feel cool and moisturized.  Thumbs up!
Wet N Wild Mega Last Lipcolor in 966 Don't Blink Pink
This is a must-have lipstick for those of you that love bright lippies.  At $1.99 it's a steal!  Though they have a matte finish they're super creamy and not drying.  Who needs Candy Yum Yum anyways?
Ben Nye Lip Pencils in Rum Raisin and Super Pink 
These pencils are new additions to my collection.  I picked them up for under $10 at Norcosto an Atlanta Beauty Store that offers professional brands.  The pencils are super long - you get a lot of product!  They are really pigmented and apply very creamy and vivid.  They are definitely among the best lip pencils in my collection.

Not So Favorites
Prestige Liquid Ink Eye Liner
This is a new eyeliner I picked up from Rite Aid when I saw the Prestige new Total Intensity line display.  Unfortunately, this applies too streaky and over time it flakes on the lid.  Thumbs down.
