November 2024
Hello gorgeous! November is always a very special month for me, between my birthday and the Anniversary of Citrine, it’s full of so much to celebrate. It’s such an exciting month filled with activities between my personal celebrations and here at Citrine with our annual Glam Bag event. This year, we are celebrating 12 years of clean, conscious, intentionally curated beauty plus all of the holiday promotions coming up as well.
Every November I take the time for me to reflect on how far I’ve come personally, as a Mother and as a business owner. Your continued support means the world to me and my family and we’re so excited to continue to expand and grow. I also have some very exciting personal projects on the horizon as well that I’ve been working on BTS so that has been very fun and activating lately. I can’t wait to share everything with all of you so stay tuned.
As for my November favorites, I have selected the five products that are having a major moment in my routine, from a juicy pout to a focus on super luxurious body care I can’t live without. These are must haves as we continue to move through the Fall season! Enjoy!
I have been absolutely in love with this blissful, intoxicating sapphire blue body oil for the fall season. It’s a luxurious combination of jasmine, ylang-ylang, soothing blue tansy, vitamin C, hyaluronic acid and a heavy dose of niacinamide to help shrink pores, brighten skin and reduce dark spots for healthier, more radiant skin overtime. The jasmine and ylang-ylang smell so gorgeous and instantly elevates my mood, perfect for a daily self care ritual. If you’re looking to replenish, nourish and hydrate your body during the drier months, this is the body oil that’s going to transform dullness and give you a silky, dewy glow.
Since this new arrival from RMS launched, it’s been my go-to for hydrated, kissable lips. I typically tend to opt for my signature 90s classic nude lip which is usually matte, but I’ve been really into adding a glossy finish especially when I know that I’m infusing my lips with beneficial ingredients, nourishment and locking in hydration. These give you that glossy high-shine look without being sticky, all while giving you a pretty wash of color and conditioning the lips. You’re giving your lips all of the benefits of a serum or balm while also getting that gorgeous glam look. I have been lining my lips with the RMS Go Nude Lip Pencil in Sunset Nude and then popping these lip oils on top. My two favorites are the Adriana for a sheer crystal shimmer look or the Amber shade which is a nude caramel color.
I have been loving this facial serum-in-oil as we’re moving into the drier months because it’s loaded with a lengthy list of nutrient-rich active botanicals that really give you a serious infusion of deep moisture. Vintner’s Daughter utilizes their own proprietary Phyto Radiance Infusion technology that slowly extracts and captures precise ratios of the nutrients of each botanical over a three week period.
It’s truly a hero hydrating product and a beautiful option for the fall and winter seasons. I put this on after my usual skincare routine and then seal it all in with the Ayuna Cream III.
Sensual, edgy, warm and romantic… I’m obsessed with this for the fall season. It’s deep and sexy with Madagascar Vanilla and Labdanum and just the right amount of spice with white pepper. Its woody tones are super subtle and it melts into the skin in such a seductive and elegant way. It also comes in a chic black heart-shaped box that I just love. This would make a beautiful gift for your lover or even for someone who’s in the dating scene.
I am all about body care this month. Innersense has a fairly new line of body care products that are actually excellent and I’m super impressed and excited to share them with you guys. This body butter is super rich and decadent. It is loaded with antioxidants, mango seed butter, shea butter and the most beautiful essential oils of neroli, white rose and vetiver giving it a luxurious, sensual and gorgeous fragrance. I find that during the fall and winter, my body needs all of the extra moisture and hydration that it can get and this really works to lock in the hydration and prevent dry and scaly winter skin.
