Monthly Favorites: December 2022

Would you look at that, BIC? 2022 has come and gone faster than a tube of your favorite mascara! I’ve been lucky enough to discover quite a few new faves over the course of the year across allllll the product categories, but my December beauty routine has been dedicated to achieving healthy, shiny hair and a smooth complexion with some added warmth to beat this winter dullness. Just add some sequins and I’m ready to ring in the new year!

Here are the products I’ve been reaching for during the month of December:

• Beautyblender POWER POCKET PUFF™ Dual-Sided Powder Puff for Setting and Baking 
• Briogeo Don't Despair, Repair! Strengthening Treatment Hair Oil 1 oz/ 30 mL 
• Drunk Elephant A-Passioni™ Retinol Cream 1 oz/ 30 mL 
• HUM Nutrition Hair Sweet Hair™ - Hair Growth Vegan Gummies with Biotin and Folic Acid 60 Vegan berry gummy hearts

@lmaster   Great favs  I didn’t know about the Kosas spray. Is it new?? I need to use my saie more. I love it too. 

[lmaster]

@ather it is new!! I had to try it and i LOVE it, thank you 😁

[eshoe]

That Saie is just an understood favorite for me as well, @lmaster.  

[lmaster]

@eshoe it is fantastic!!

@lmaster  These sound like terrific products. I have been seeing how much several people have been enjoying the JVN stying milk.  I’m always on the lookout for products to help with wavy frizz. 

[lmaster]

@Cissy63 I apply it when my hair is damp or somewhat not soaked, then blow dry or straighten my bangs and I noticed it looks so much better

[Cissy63]

@lmaster  Oh thank you for this info on using it!

[bakeamuffin]

oh @lmaster I’ve been curious about the JVN Complete Blowout Styling Milk 3 oz / 90 mL ! Keeping note that it’s one that you liked! 😊

[lmaster]

@bakeamuffin it is fabulous!!

[CynthieLu]

Great list! That highlighter looks so glowy @lmaster ✨️ It looks really good! Have you used GR Niacinamide Dew Drops? I'd love to hear a comparison 💖

[lmaster]

@CynthieLu ok I have used a sample of it, just not as a primer, now yesterday and today I did use it as a primer, it's ok as a primer, I just didn't see any stand out glow from it

[CynthieLu]

Thank you for that @lmaster Before I used highlighters the Dew Drops were everything, but now that I'm playing around with the real dealz the drops don't seem to pack the same punch. 

[lmaster]

@CynthieLu no they really don't, but it did make a good primer with niacinamide and the watermelon scent is an added bonus 😆

What's the texture of the lip elixir like, @lmaster?  I'm not familiar with that one.

[lmaster]

@CookieGirl1 it has a light rose scent, it's a lip oil in a click type packaging with a roller ball for application

[CookieGirl1]

@lmaster ahh, I'm glad that you said it was a lip oil.  I know that lip oils are mega-trendy but I honestly can't stand them.

[lmaster]

@CookieGirl1 ohhhh then that's a big no for you!

December favorites❤️🎄💚 All of these were fantastic for vacation! ☀️ 😎 🏝️ 

 JVN Complete Blowout Styling Milk 3 oz / 90 mL  from the holiday gratis package has been great for a super easy quick style. 

Ellis Brooklyn SALT Eau de Parfum Travel Spray 0.34 oz/ 10 mL smells like the beach!

Saie Glowy Super Gel Lightweight Dewy Multipurpose Illuminator Sunglow  gives a beautiful subtle bronze glow.

Westman Atelier Squeaky Clean Liquid Lip Hydrating Lip Balm , feels so nice and lasts longer than any balm does for me.

Trader Joe’s Sunscreens are so good and affordable. I made it though another extremely sunny vacation with no sunburn!

@faeriegirl 

The EB Salt perfume smells nice.

[ather]

@faeriegirl  Oooo I’ve been wanting to try the darker shade of the saie but I was holding back but if it works for you I’m sure it will work for me.  I feel like the JVN is such a great product.
