February's Best Beauty Buys

Cool Tools

There must be something in the water over at Revlon headquarters. First, their team managed to give the humble tweezer its first major upgrade since its early days in Mesopotamia. With a powerful LED light nestled inside, the Spotlight Tweezer ($11; drugstores) lets you easily pinpoint fine hairs or pluck in less-than-ideal lighting (or even, we recently discovered, in the dark).

And now comes another simply brilliant concept: The new Revlon File N' Peel 6-in-1 File ($4.50; drugstores) lasts six times longer than a regular nail file. Instead of tossing it when it gets dull, you peel off the top layer to reveal a fresh filing layer underneath (there are three on each side).
