Monthly Favorites: December 2021 Edition!

[AlexBT]

‘Tis the season… to pay tribute to our December beauty favorites! Earlier this month, while shopping for gifts for others (thanks in part to all the great recs from our Community Ambassador Gift Guide for the 2021 Holiday Season), the inevitable happened: some extra items for me managed to sneak into my basket. I mean, I have to know if I like it before I can confidently gift something to someone else, right? We’ll call it research! In any case, I’ve acquired some new-to-me beauty staples that collectively carried me through my many December moods – whether I stayed home and couched it with some self-care, or actually went out in my glitzy holiday glam, complete with a highlight you can see from space. 🌌

Here are the products I’ve turned to the most this month:

• Dior BACKSTAGE Glow Face Palette 
• Hourglass Vanish™ Seamless Finish Concealer Brush 
• Kiehl's Since 1851 Epidermal Re-Texturizing Micro-Dermabrasion 2.5 oz/ 75 mL 
• OUAI Detox Shampoo 
• Tatcha Camellia Gold Spun Lip Balm 0.21 oz/ 6 g

@SharenLyn Welcome back to the cold! 😂 And yes you came to the right place for lip recs! Aside from Tatcha, I've also been loving Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm for Hydration & Shine 🧈

[SharenLyn]

My skin has been feeling sensitive and dry, so I'm loving Flora + Bast Age Adapting CBD Serum  for my face and Tatcha The Kissu Lip Mask Red Camellia for lips (this might be my favorite Rouge sale purchase). Also, I'm loving my Valentino Mini Rosso Valentino Lipstick  which I picked up with that recent 20% off promo. It remains vibrant after blotting a couple of times and stays put underneath a mask!

Beautiful favorites @txcatx! 😍 What shade is that Valentino lippie?

[txcatx]

Thanks, @itsfi ! The lipstick shade is Sensuous Red.

@txcatx -- gorgeous lippy!

@txcatx  Awesome favs!!! Tatcha is so good!

[AlexBT]

@txcatx Perfect festive picks! Lipstick's power to stay put under your mask is one product attribute I never knew would be so important...

[eshoe]

LOVE your photo @txcatx! I am curious about the serum, time to research that.

[faeriegirl]

I am loving the LE Tatcha lip mask too @txcatx !

[Mellmars1185]

@txcatx The tatcha lip mask seems like a treat! Enjoy your picks!

[QueenMarceline]

These all look lovely. I'm a sucker for some Tatcha and that packaging is divine!

My favorites this month are

KILIAN Paris Apple Brandy Eau de Parfum 1.7 oz/ 50 mL Eau de Parfum Spray 

Floral Street Sunflower Pop Eau De Parfum 1.7 oz/ 50 mL 

DAMDAM Mochi Mochi Luminous Plumping & Hydrating Moisturizer 1.8 oz / 50 g 

[itsfi]

Did you say "mochi plumping moisturizer"?! Do you use it for your day and evening moisturizer? Off to look into that right now @Titian06! 

[Titian06]

@itsfi - I bought it to use at night, which I'm happy with.  I did try it during the day out of curiosity.  I don't wear makeup right now so I can't tell you how it works with that.  I find in general, it leaves a bit of something (tack?) on the skin or maybe it's just not soaking in all the way.  Either way, that doesn't bother me since I use it at night.  It could also be because it's for dryer skin than mine.  Also, there's an ingredient in it that after you put it on your skin will shine like a star, which I'm not into (another reason I use it at night)!

@Titian06  Omg those perfumes are to die for!!!!

[eshoe]

The Kilian is so good, @Titian06. 

[AlexBT]

@Titian06 Oh wow, that mochi mochi moisturizer is new to me. Sounds lovely!
