As we march toward the end of February (see what I did there?) itโs time to salute our favorite products of the month! You know the drill. ๐ This month, I set out to do a major purge of my beauty collection, given all the products Iโve accumulated while in quarantine, but instead ended up with a bunch of new goodies to add to my ever-growing stash. Does anyone elseโs beauty shelves โmagicallyโ replenish themselves after a big clean-out sesh? I know itโs not just meโฆ Iโm always in good company here on the BIC!
Here are my February Favorites, including some newbies, some new-to-me BIC favorites, and some trusty shelter-in-place standbys:

@eshoe Omg that Hourglass sparkle. I totally have that, yet it still made me gasp in your photo! โจ๐๐
It is so pretty in person, isnโt it @AlexBT ๐คฉ ๐
Hey @AlexBT! I loved seeing your favorites this month. I have the OUAI Wave Spray 4.9 fl oz/ 145 mL and need to use it more often. I canโt resist their North Bondi fragrance ๐
Here are my February faves- in no particular order:
fresh Kombucha 2-in-1 No-Rinse Cleanser & Prebiotic Treatment 6.7 oz/ 200 mL
Gucci Mascara L'Obscur 1 Eve Black
Nรฉcessaire The Body Serum - With Hyaluronic Acid Fragrance Free
Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops 1.35 oz/ 40 mL
Summer Fridays Cloud Dew Oil-Free Gel Cream Moisturizer 1.70 oz/ 50 mL
@adrianamancini I need to try the wave spray!!
@ather It smells heavenly! I cut my hair shorter recently, so I will try using it again to create beachy waves. When you try it, let me know what you think! Have a wonderful afternoon โค๏ธ
@adrianamancini Thanks Iโll definitely let you know. Iโve been using Bumble and bumble Surf Spray 4 oz/ 125 mL and Bumble and bumble Surf Styling Leave In 5 oz/ 150 mL I like the leave in gel but I donโt find the surf spray is helping. Iโve heard good things about Ouai wave spray!
@ather I heard about those products! I am sorry you don't like the surf spray; I am happy you like the leave-in. OUAI Wave Spray 4.9 fl oz/ 145 mL does not have salt as an ingredient, leading me to try it.
@adrianamancini Do you use the ouai the second day to refresh the style?
@ather Yes- I tend to use that or OUAI Texturizing Hair Spray 4.5 oz to freshen up my hair.
@adrianamancini @ather I like the OUAI Texturizing Hair Spray 4.5 oz to give my hair beachy waves. Do you find it does that for your hair as well?
@adrianamancini What is your hair type?? You mentioned the Ouai Wave Spray (sorry can't get the name right atm!). Looove the smell too but it did nothing but make my hair look greasy & didn't produce waves. I'm wondering if I misused it or something. Im 2a/2b wavy and usually don't have trouble getting curls/waves! (Except now bc of quarantine my hair is so long its losing it a bit but that's an easy fix ... in the future! LOL!) I wanted to love that spray but just didn't. ๐ญ
@BaseballJen I had the same result when using the OUAI Wave Spray 4.9 fl oz/ 145 mL. My hair follicle is wavy, but when I style it, it is pin straight. I sprayed it in my hair, scrunched it, and tried to let my hair produce waves. I also tried using a diffuser (folding my hair into the diffuser like an accordion) after spraying it on my hair. I usually don't air dry my hair, so I used it on dry hair (I read it can be used on wet or dry hair). I think that's why I had issues using it on my hair. I was bummed because I love the smell ๐ญ But, with summer in a few months, I will try it again to create beachy waves.
@adrianamancini The wave spray has become my new air-dry holy grail this past year! Working from home has really elevated my no-heat styling game. ๐
I've been eyeing the Dew Drops! Might have to take the plunge soon...
@AlexBT You will love the dew drops! My favorite way to use them is as the last step of my am skincare routine to create a โno-makeupโ look ๐
I am also super excited to try out the wave spray again! Do you usually apply it on wet or dry hair?
@adrianamancini Yes! My current "recipe" is Christophe Robin Luscious Curl Cream with Flaxseed Oil 5 oz/ 150 mL + a LOT of wave spray, scrunched into my hair while my head is upside down, fresh out of the shower wet. Usually I'll squeeze some excess water out first with my Aquis Waffle Luxe Long Hair Towel, but for the most part, still wet! And then I just let it do its thang... results definitely vary (ha!), but it works for me in quarantine!
@AlexBT Loved reading your "recipe!" I heard great things about Christophe Robin products, so I will have to check out their curl cream!
@adrianamancini @AlexBT the smell of the OUAI Wave Spray 4.9 fl oz/ 145 mL is what made me splurge on ultimately purchasing the OUAI North Bondi Eau De Parfum 1.7 oz/ 50 mL when it first came out :).
@CookieGirl1 Same here! I love their North Bondi fragrance!
@adrianamancini What do you like about the Gucci Mascara L'Obscur 1 Eve Black? I have a mini and I am excited to try it!
@eshoe Gucci Mascara L'Obscur 1 Eve Black volumizes and lengthens lashes, so it is like using two mascaras in one. I find that it makes my lashes look fanned out, and I instantly look awake after applying one coat. This mascara is also buildable- you can create natural or dramatic looks by adding more coats. I also have sensitive lower lashes, and this is the only mascara I can use that doesn't irritate them.
Long story short- you will LOVE IT!
Ooooh love that it is gentle on the eyes, @adrianamancini! That is a plus. And fanning the lashes, yes please๐คฉ
