February Favorites
Before February ends I wanted to share with you some products that I’ve recently fallen in love with. Although I’m always updating my cosmetics, this month I was especially concentrated on products to better maintain my skin, hair, and smile. Between luxurious body oils and multi-tasking scrubs, theres a little bit of everything needed to power through the end of Winter. I’ve also included some exclusive coupon codes just for my readers, so you can turn my favorites into your favorites.
Geisha by Bali James Body Oil: I had no idea that I was obsessed with body oil until now. Geisha by Bali James is a luxury skincare line, and the Geisha Body Oil in Maiko is an absolute necessity. I found myself smelling my arm throughout the day, where the scent had lingered in perfect intensity. I dislike the way most lotions tend to sit atop my skin, and this extremely light body oil absorbs and hydrates my skin on an entirely different level. Geisha by Bali James contains a sumptuous mix of the finest quality of cold pressed oils and Vitamin E, and comes in four scents. I’ve been using scent Maiko, which smells of rich vanilla and lily blossoms.
Tarte Tarteist Clay Paint Liner: I generally prefer cream eyeliner over liquid eyeliner, although I admit it is a little trickier to use. This Tarteist Clay Paint Liner is truly innovative because it solves all issues of cream eyeliners before it, such as the pot drying up prematurely and the blend-on-hand mess. The waterproof cream eyeliner is stored in a squeezable tube so the formula never dries up or transfers to your eyelid, and the tube features a tapered tip which allows you to skip the mess. I’m still trying to decide how I feel about the angled bamboo liner brush, but I love this product none the less.
Beaming White Deluxe Home Teeth Whitening Kit: You probably don’t know this about me but I’ve been using the Invisalign trays for a few years now. Although I’ll probably always smile with a closed-mouth (both out of habit and chubby cheek necessity), my teeth have begun to drastically shift and I’m nearing the end of my treatment. What better time to begin whitening my teeth at home? I love the Beaming White ‘Deluxe Home Teeth Whitening Kit’ because I’m able to use my Invisalign trays to both straighten and whiten my teeth at the same time.
The kit includes custom fit whitening trays if you don’t already have a retainer, whitening gel, remineralizing gel, a blue LED light to boost results, and a zippered storage case. I’ve partnered with Beaming White to offer my readers a special 80% off code so we can brighten our smiles together. Use the code “Kae80” for 80% off your entire purchase on the Beaming White online store. Keep an eye on my Instagram to see my upcoming final result.
Skinnamon Original Scrub: Skinnamon Original Scrub for Body + Face + Hair smells delicious. It’s difficult for me to find a face scrub that exfoliates and moisturizes without irritating my sensitive skin, but Skinnamon has found the perfect balance of all-natural ingredients. The scrub promises to help treat acne, dry skin, blemishes, flaky skin, eczema, psoriasis, wrinkles, stretch marks and dry scalp. It contains 8 detoxifying active botanical ingredients and improves blood circulation and stimulates collagen production. Use the code “ElleKae” for $5 off of your Skinnamon order.
Tarte Maracuja Creaseless Concealer: I hoard concealers, but this is still a welcome addition. I love how it melts into the skin and warms up on the fingers immediately. I purchased the lightest shade possible since its brightening, dewy, and luminous finish makes it the perfect concealer for highlighting.
What are some of your favorite products this month?

Scrub sounds amazing! A little tip…if your cream eyeliners are drying up before you finish them, add a little baby oil to revive them.
Really? I’ll have to try it. I had been using MAC Fix+ to revive but still found it wasn’t the same pre-drying out. Thanks! xx
New ones I haven’t seen. Thanks:)

That scrub sounds like fun! And I am always looking for a good concealer!
That Skinnamon looks delicious!! But what does it to for the hair? I get it for face and body but scrubbing your hair?

It would help to hydrate and exfoliate your roots, preventing dry-scalp
Tarte Maracuja Creaseless Concealer is my current favorite as well. I suffer from dark circles and my skin, during the winter, can suffer from dry skin, but this concealer works great for me. Great choices here! I need to try that scrub!
I love the Tarte concealer too! I’ve recently fallen in love with the NYX HD concealer though. I use it mainly for under my eyes and other highlighting areas. I think it’s pretty comparable to the Tarte concealer. xoxo
That Skinnamon sounds amazing, I’ll have to put that on my wish list.
Where can you buy Skinnamon and is it available in the UK? It looks amazing!
