Here you’ll find reviews of the best beauty products that launched in February, as well as the products we’ve rediscovered and fallen back in love with.

Olaplex No.7 Bonding Oil, $50.

"As someone with dry, frizzy and disobedient hair, nourishing oils are my love language. My usual go-to is Ouai Hair Oil, but this little guy came scooting across my desk and I just had to try it. And like pretty much everything Olaplex makes, it's bloody good. It can be used on damp or dry hair to strengthen weakened and damaged bonds within your hair follicle, making everything look smooth, soft and healthy. Also GREAT for taming flyaways and frizz. Bonus: It also contains heat protection if you want to use it before styling." - Erin Docherty, Senior Beauty Writer and co-host of You Beauty.

Subi Bare Skin Balm, $44.

"There's something about using a cleansing balm to remove makeup that feels so luxe. This one from K-beauty brand Subi is made with Australian lemon myrtle (it has a very subtle lemon drop scent) and vitamin E and removes EVERYTHING - only the smallest amount is needed, leaving my skin hydrated with no traces of the day left, ready for a good clean with my cleanser." - Charlotte Begg, Lifestyle Writer.

Beauté Pacifique Serum Symphonique Hyaluronic Serum, $120.

"I've joined the serum club! This one from Beauté Pacifique makes your skin so glowy and hydrated. My moisturiser feels like it absorbs deeper and makeup applies more easily after I use it." - Emma Davis, Managing Producer, Video.

MAC Mineralize Blush in Gentle, $50.

"This MAC mineral blush has been amazing this season. It’s perfect for someone who has quite pale skin and it’s a buildable product which I love." - Isabella Ross, News Writer.

Benefit Cosmetics 24-Hr Brow Setter Invisible Brow Gel, $45.

"I've been considering getting my brows laminated, but instead I purchased the Benefit 24hr Brow setter Brow Gel. It's easy to use, makes my brows look full, and gives that look I was after without the maintenance." - Megan Stormer, Partner Strategy Manager.

Glo Skin Beauty C-Shield Anti-Pollution Moisture Tint, $72.

"I'm a huge of fan of Glo Skin Beauty's skincare (their at-home peel kits are the bomb) so I was extremely eager to try their new skin tint, and it did not disappoint. A combination of skincare and makeup, it includes Vitamin C to protect the skin from blue light and pollution and has a hint of tint - just enough to even skin tone - that leaves the most marvellous dewy glow. It looks great on its own but also sits really nicely under makeup, and the fact I know it's working wonders for my skin underneath makes it a big yes from me." - Charlotte Begg, Lifestyle Writer.

Yours Only Balm, $30.

"I can't stop using this balm, you guys. It's so freakin' good. I use it on my chapped lips, dry patches of skin on my face, my elbows, on my toast - I'm bloody addicted to it. It's wonderfully hydrating, non-greasy and keeps my flaky skin nourished and happy." - Erin Docherty, Senior Beauty Writer and co-host of You Beauty.

Estée Lauder Pure Color Envy Nighttime Rescue Lip Oil-Serum, $50.

"This! Feels sooo good to put on before bed. My lips are so soft and hydrated in the morning." - Talia Phillips, Strategy Manager.

James Cosmetics 24K Gold & Collagen Crystal Eye Mask, $35.

"Leigh Campbell made me buy these and they are gold. They are so easy to pop on while you are doing other things and they just feel a little luxe." - Frankie Romano, NSW Sales Manager.

MCo Beauty Highlight and Glow Beauty Wand, $32.

"I knew I was going to love these cream products before I even put them on my face. Very similar to a cult beauty product but at a cheaper price point, both the contour and highlight wand apply seamlessly and leave a stunning result. They also come in two blush shades - pink and peach glow - which are just as lush." - Charlotte Begg, Lifestyle Writer.

Etoile Collective Skincare Shelf, $100.

"I bought an Etoile Collective skincare shelf and am obsessed with it in my tiny bathroom. I'm a serial makeup and skincare hoarder and end up just throwing half used products into the cupboard and forgetting about them. I’ve been trying to reduce the amount I hold on to so now I have everything on display, right next to my mirror and can actually use the products I’ve accumulated. Added bonus is I have a 1930s bathroom and it fits perfectly on my windowsill."  - Susannah Makin, Content Marketing Assistant.

Tbh Skincare Rebound Serum, $68.

"In case you missed Leigh and I having a yarn about this on the You Beauty podcast, you've just gotta try this newbie from tbh Skincare. Scientist, skincare wizard, and skinfluencer Hannah English teamed up with the brand to come up with this hydrating and soothing formula - so you know it's going to be good. It tackles everything from inflammation to a pissed off skin barrier, calming and repairing the skin. I rate it." - Erin Docherty, Senior Beauty Writer and co-host of You Beauty.

L'Oreal Paris Back To Bronze Matte Bronzer, $29.95.

"My 'no-makeup makeup' look consists of a brow and bronzer, and I'm always on the lookout for one that's not too orange and not too ashy. This one ticks both those boxes - it lightly warms up the face, leaving it looking naturally sunkissed. Chef's kiss!" - Charlotte Begg, Lifestyle Writer.

Clinique Even Better Glow Light Reflecting Makeup SPF 15, $55.

"This foundation has been pretty well used! It’s got a bit of SPF in it which is important to me, it’s a glowy and light to medium coverage product. Not to mention a little goes a long way." - Isabella Ross, News Writer.
