Some of the most exciting products from The Case Full Of Seoul that I was most excited to try out were the May Coop Raw Sauce & Raw Moisturizer*. Now, one might speculate that it's because I'm Canadian and it seems impossible not to get excited about any product whose main ingredient is maple tree sap... and they would probably be right. Of course, it's less because I'm a huge fan of maple and more because I was intrigued at the idea of substituting the usual main ingredient of water with tree sap.

Do you ever feel like you pass by things on store shelves all of the time, never really noticing them, and then finally you try them and it's like a lightning bolt? I feel that way about CeraVe. I feel like they've always been there, staring at me in the drugstore, and I've passed them by. In the past year or so, I've been trying out more and more from the brand and I've really started to realize just how much I like them and a couple of them have become a real staple for me. Recently, I've been testing out a few products from the CeraVe Skin Renewing line and they've continued to impress.

As the weather gets hotter and the days longer, I'm feeling a much stronger pull towards traditional summer beauty picks that give me ease and lightness while holding up to the heat. I feel like this is a great time for subscription services because they really put a focus on seasonal picks that make sense for what so many of us are looking for when the weather gets hot and we're spending a lot more time outside. This month's Glossybox* is no exception. This month's box is packed with great picks for summer beauty and on the go ease.

Can I just say that I'm officially sad now about the byebye Target situation? I used to really love to just pop in there, wander around, pick up a few beauty items and chill out on a weeknight, and I keep finding myself wanting to do that but without any Target to go to. Sigh. Anyway, during one of the last weeks that Target was here, my location had these facial oils deeply discounted even though they hadn't even made it to the shelf at regular price yet. Since I'd been wanting to try it, I picked one up to play with and try out and now I'm ready to give my thoughts!

So... To be entirely cliché... Can you believe we're already two months gone in 2015? I can't. I'm pretty much floored by this and when I think about it, I end up thinking too much about aging and time passing quickly and how it's going to be no time until I am an old lady. Yes, I have anxiety. And yes, this time of year seems to be particularly flooring on the anxiety front. Anyway. At least February is a short month, and therefore it's supposed to pass more quickly than other months. AND I WILL BE YOUNG FOREVER. Ahem.

When I put together my monthly favorites, I don't think too hard about it. I go with my gut on the things that I just instinctively feel are my favorites of the month. This month happened to feel very thematic when I came out the end of it. The theme, you ask? MOISTURE. I swear, this month has been the absolute worst as far as dry skin and hair and I've been slathering myself up with everything I can find to try and combat that, and I've found that there are definitely some very solid products that take care of this for me.

Without further adieu (and neuroses... because HOLY on that first paragraph!)... Keep reading for a look at my February Favorites.

As you may recall, I was very excited about last month's Birchbox. This month, I was admittedly pretty much stalking the website to find out what I would be getting this month... and that's where the weirdness started. Well, it's wear the weirdness ended as well, but it was some real weirdness. When I first looked at the products I would be getting, I was disappointed because it looked like I would only be getting 4 products in my box. A couple of days later, I checked back again and saw that it had changed and there were 5 products listed. Unfortunately, I was kind of bummed that I would be receiving a Harvey Prince fragrance sample. After 2 months of receiving products from Harvey Prince, I was hoping to get other brands this month. I assume they must have realized that they were going to repeat again, because the next time I looked (which was actually because I was checking for a tracking number) the fragrance sample had disappeared and was replaced with something else. Earlier this week I looked again - again checking to see when my box would arrive - and noticed that the items in my box had changed yet again. Where there was once a hair product listed, there was instead an eyeliner. I don't know what happened that the items included in my box changed three times, but it was certainly odd. Anyway, my box got here today with the items that were listed on my last peek, so keep reading to take a look at what I got!
