Congrats! We finally made it through January — the first and most dragged-out month of the year, where the last 31 days have felt longer than all of 2019. But here's the good news: February is the shortest and last full month of cold weather before the ice starts to melt and you can swap out your rich, moisture-heavy winter skincare routine for lighter serums and creams.  

But while were still in the midst of winter, beauty brands have dropped a ton of hydrating haircare, makeup, and skincare products to get you through the home stretch. Celebrity hairstylist Kristin Ess has added a collection of nourishing curl products to her best-selling line of affordable haircare, while Fenty Beauty's facial mist keeps skin hydrated and makeup fresh. 

Ahead, a complete breakdown of the best new haircare, makeup, and skincare products hitting shelves in February 2020.

A mind-blowing fact: The key to a ridiculously good hair day is a healthy scalp and not the shampoo or styling products you use. That's where a weekly scalp scrub comes in. Playa's treatment is formulated with California sea salt and tea tree oil to gently exfoliate and rebalance the scalp's natural oils. It's also safe to use across all hair types and textures.
