The A List: February 2018

By AFM Staff – February 1, 2018

 

Kiehl’s Eye Alert $23
Available at Nordstrom, Sephora, and Kiehl’s
Everyone—male or female—needs a great base layer. Kiehl’s Eye Alert is the ideal pick-me-up for early morning fitness classes or the long day ahead. The formula includes cooling extracts that ultimately hydrate the thinner skin of the eye area and caffeine to fight fatigue.  

Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer $54
Available at Sephora
Hourglass’ primer feels so buttery smooth on your skin. This oil-free formula leaves a silky and airy texture, providing the perfect canvas for makeup. We love that it creates a literal veil over the skin, reducing the overall appearance of redness, pores, and wrinkles.  

bareMinerals Complexion Rescue Tinted Moisturizer Hydrating Gel Cream $30 
Available at bareMinerals.com and Sephora
This cream is a life-saver during the dry winter months and lasts through an afternoon sweat session. It's the perfect gym bag and travel companion. 

First Aid Beauty Triple Protection Skin Tint $34 
Available at Firstaidbeauty.com
With only one active ingredient (zinc oxide), this skin tint provides sun protection that feels weightless on the skin and lasts all day. 

Rodial GLAMOLASH Mascara XXL $28
Available at Dermstore.com
Originally recommended by our good friend Chelsea Hardee of Flatwater Foundation, this mascara totally negates the need for expensive false lashes! It keeps your lashes long and strong through bike commutes to the office or a midday yoga session. 

NARS Creamy Radiant Concealer $30
Available at Sephora
The perfect buildable medium- to full-coverage concealer, this is the staff favorite for covering dark under-eye circles and reducing fine lines. This amazing concealer is free of parabens, sulfates, and phthalates and is comprised of a multi-active botanical blend that includes magnolia bark extract, grape seed extract, and vitamin E to help retain hydration and reduce redness. The best part? It lasts all day! 

Fenty Beauty Killawatt Freestyle Highlighter $34
Available at Sephora
Glow like Rihanna with her new makeup line, Fenty Beauty. This highlighter is perfect for your cheekbones, eyebrow bones, or collar bones–really anywhere that can use a little light! Luminizing and iridescent, this cream-powder hybrid will leave you feeling radiant and ready for anything. 

Beautycounter Sheer Lipstick in Twig $30
Available at Beautycounter.com
This award-winning lightweight lipstick is the perfect nude shade everyone’s been searching for. The Twig shade provides a neutral polished sheen, and the texture is lightweight and creamy! Beautycounter color-tests each shade to ensure it complements all skin tones. The lipstick also boasts no synthetic fragrance–just a hint of vanilla planifolia. The perfect lip color from day to night—just add a little gloss to make it pop for a night out on the town! 

Urban Decay Naked Palette–Original $54
Available at Ulta and Nordstrom
There are multiple Urban Decay Naked palettes, but we love the original palette best! It has 12 beautiful pigments for creating a neutral, smoky, or glitzy eye. Super versatile and great for everyday wear, the Naked Palettes are a makeup bag must. 

Kat Von D Tattoo Liner $20
Available at Sephora 
This one changes the game as the first liquid eyeliner we’ve found with an effortless application thanks to the fine and supple brush tip. Create a variety of waterproof looks with ease! 

Hourglass Arch Brow Sculpting Pencil $34
Available at Sephora
Full brows are IN! The Hourglass Arch Brow Sculpting Pencil comes highly recommended by this month’s featured Arch Over Iris lash artist, McKenzy Windham. This pencil is great for filling in bald spots as well as creating dimension and fullness.  

Bobbi Brown Blush $30 and Blush Brush $58
Available at Bobbibrowncosmetics.com
This is a sheer powder blush with a matte finish that provides an idyllic rosy glow. Bobbi Brown prides itself on makeup that simply enhances natural beauty, and their blush line does just that! We also recommend their brushes—some of the best on the market.
