Lip Monthly February 2020 Review
1 of 4
Each month, Lip Monthly sends their products in a little soft fabric makeup bag which is just a bit bigger than an iPhone Plus (although not quite big enough to fit one inside). This is a cute bag, perfect for a subscription for lip products!

Manna Kadar Lippie Love Lip Scrub - Retail Value $24.00
This lip scrub comes from Manna Kadar, who is no stranger to subscription boxes, but is a new product for me. I love that this comes in a tube making it easy to apply. The scrub is super gentle with small particles for exfoliation and it almost feels like a lip gloss when you apply it because it is so smooth (although I think it does get a bit more coarse further down the tube). I almost forgot to wipe it off! It left my lips feeling super soft and fairly hydrated.

ModelCo Hydrating Lip Oil - Retail Value $6.95 ($12 AUD)
This lip oil feels just like a lip oil should - it glides on smoothly and is moisturizing. It provides a great shine that enhances your natural lip color. I like the cute, smaller tube which is great for throwing in a clutch!
Here you can see the shine it provides.

Bellapierre Super Gloss in Runway- Retail Value $18.00 (currently on sale for $9)
This lip gloss glides on smoothly and is not super glossy in my opinion, but instead, the metallics stand out a bit more than any real shine. I didn't find it to be very moisturizing or to have great staying power, but it did wear down pretty evenly and was comfortable to wear. I feel like it had a slight bubblegum scent to it, but that really could be in my head?

Here it is on. While the formula wasn't anything amazing, I really liked the color!

Be A Bombshell Lipstick in Viva - Retail Value $12.00
This matte lipstick is a nice vibrant pink. It's a fun color, and while it's not going to be an everyday lipstick for me, I think it will be a great statement lipstick that won't be too wild! I thought the formula was good and the pigment was very buildable.

Here it is with the swipe of the ModelCo lip oil over it which really makes it pop!

Here I tried it with the Bellapierre gloss on top. I thought it toned down the brightness well!

Swatched from top to bottom we have the ModelCo, Bellapierre gloss, and Be A Bombshell lipstick.
Verdict: This month's Lip Monthly bag had a lot of really useful items. The lip scrub and lip oil are great items as we are ending winter and coming into spring to get my lips into great shape. While the lipstick was a bit bright, I still liked the color and the Bellapierre gloss was such a pretty color. The total retail value of our products comes to $60.95 which is great for a $12.95/month subscription!
