Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

Monthly Faves: December 2023!Monthly Faves: December 2023!

Wow, what a year, Beauty Insider Community! I donโ€™t know about you, but reflecting on 2023 makes me realize how many new beauty favorites Iโ€™ve discovered (some of those thanks to you!) and how many former favorites have now become current holy grails. Thereโ€™s nothing like shopping your own stashโ€ฆ. but splurging on some brand-new beauty is pretty fun, too. ๐Ÿ˜‰ Iโ€™m so grateful for all of you BIC-ers for sharing your favorites here for all of us to enjoy, all year long!

 

Here are the products Iโ€™ve been loving this December:

 

Now itโ€™s your turn! Hit the reply button and tell us which products youโ€™ve picked up the most this Decemberโ€ฆ or even throughout all of 2023. Be sure to tag those products with the โ€œ#โ€ symbol (hair, makeup, fragrance, wellness, skincare, etc.)!

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

@CynthieLu Thank you โ˜บ๏ธ. I actually got my hair cut a few weeks ago and I have been struggling to style it with my new layers. It is a learning curve. I almost wish I didn't cut it lol

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

You will get used to it ๐Ÿฉท @Mellmars1185 It's weird, after a hair cut there is this awkward phase of getting used to it.

It's such a bother. It takes me a week or two to get used to a cut I swear lol ๐Ÿ˜…

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

@AlexBT excellent choices for December!! The contour wand is amazing, I've tried a dupe before and the color was not as good as the CT, so it remains the winner ๐Ÿ†

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

@jaaayp I've been so curious about trying the brown version of this mascara!! Do you notice a big difference in your overall look when you use brown vs black?

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

Tbh, I don't think it's a huge difference @AlexBT ๐Ÿ˜‚ but I have been foregoing eyeliner lately and I find that it looks a little more natural AND I don't notice smudging on the undereye area as I would with a black version of the Too Faced Better Than Sex Volumizing & Lengthening Waterproof Mascara Standard Size Black - 0.27 oz/... 

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

Ohhh, pretty faves @jaaayp, do you use this serum and the Biossance rose oil in the same skincare routine? 

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

Nooo, not really @itsfi I use the biossance oil maybe like twice a week now, only on the days I don't feel lazy and wanna do the whole guasha routine. I've been using the squalene in the mornings mostly since I have retinol and lactaid serum that I have to rotate during the night time. I really like it though, I know it's not the same thing but I feel like it's a better alternative to hyaluronic acid ๐Ÿค”

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

@jaaayp, some people's skin responds better to squalane oil than to hyaluronic acid so it makes sense you'd reach for it more. Gotta give your skin what it loves. 

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

Your choices look so good @jaaayp. I'm a big fan of the chocolatey brown mascaras too. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Lovely choices this month. You know I just saw the contour stick from ABH on an influencers video on IG, they made it look excellent.๐Ÿ‘Œ

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

I really enjoy it @CynthieLu I wouldn't call it contour though as it claims to be because it's a bit orangey on me but I would pass as somewhere in between a contour and a bronzer. It's like a 2 for one! ๐Ÿ˜‚

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

I have two new faves thanks to @TeamBIC !

 

- amika Mini Soulfood Nourishing Mask 3.3 oz/ 100 mL 

 

- NATASHA DENONA Glam Eyeshadow Palette 

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

Beautiful favorites @Titian06 โฃ๏ธ Glammed up eyes and nourished hair, all courtesy of a festive and fun gratis, ๐ŸŽ 

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

๐ŸŽ‰ That's awesome! @Titian06 

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

Aww, yay @Titian06 !

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

I think I can say we are all pretty grateful for a place to read, share and connect about all the products we love with such awesome people. So a huge thank you, to you and everyone @AlexBT. ๐Ÿ’•

 

Your loves list this month is so impressive. I have been wanting to try more from Charlotte Tilbury. This wand looks so good from everyone's posts about it. Maybe in the new year I will get my hands on it. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

@CynthieLu The DM tint is so nice. Lovely to see it make the list. So happy to see it make a favorites list, ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ 

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

@CynthieLu that's such a great feeling when you feel like you almost have too many favorites ๐Ÿ™‚

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

You are soooo right. @CookieGirl1 ๐Ÿ˜ There were a lot of great products to be found this year. It feels pretty good to have a aresnal of winners. ๐Ÿ™‚

Re: Monthly Favorites: December 2023 Edition!

@CynthieLu Yesssss give us alllll the faves!!! That benefit brow pencil is def a holy grail for me... I keep trying different ones to see what else is out there, but the pigment of the benefit one is just unmatched!

 

Funny you mentioned whittling things down because I had a few other CT products I had a hard time choosing from!! I would have also loved to include my all-time fave Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Refillable Setting Powder and a new recent fave, Charlotte Tilbury Eyes To Mesmerize Cream Eyeshadow Oyster Pearl ๐Ÿ™ Oh, and the blush wands are among my fave cream blushes as well!
