| - I have heard about this natural beauty bar for quite some time but never really had an interest to go in. After all, all of my skin care products I purchase from Whole Foods and have had great skin for many years. In my younger days, I suffered from incredibly severe acne and was able to cure it on my own by educating myself on skin care, skin care products, ingredients in products, etc. Today, it is VERY rare for me to get a pimple, maybe one every 4-6 months, if that. Although everything in my skin care routine is natural, I was still guilty from using a non-natural tinted moisturizer from NARS for over 3 years now. Although my skin loved it, and it never created problematic skin for me, I decided it was time for me to switch my makeup to a natural and non-toxic one.
A little over a week ago I stepped into Citrine and had a wonderful experience. I was introduced a a BB cream from Jane Iredale which I immediacy fell in love with and was super excited to swap my tinted moisturizer with. I made that purchase on a Friday and wore it daily for about a week. My... Skin... HATED IT!! I broke out very badly! I literally kept a count of how many pimples have formed by the end of the day of wearing that makeup. It was awful. Then I went a couple of days without wearing it, and no pimples. The ladies informed me that my skin may have been detoxing from the switch of makeup, but, I just couldn't bare to keep wearing it any more because I have the biggest fear of acne, it was tragic dealing w/ it in my younger years.
I called Citrine after a week of having this makeup and explained the problem to the manager Jen. She was very nice and very educated on her products but also skin care in general. She welcomed me to come in and we can find a product that's perfect for me. That is exactly what I did today. I went in and we went over skin preparation and application of the BB cream. I learned that a little goes a long way and there is a chance I may have been putting too much product on my skin that caused the breakouts. BUT, because I wasn't sure what exactly it was that made my skin react, I decided to try another product. I was introduced to a new product and we went over application and the ingredients in it. It seems like a winner for now and I am excited to try it. Jen applied it on me while inside the store we found the perfect match for me.
I love my experience and I love everything about Citrine. They represent natural, non-toxic, organic, local, and cruelty free products. This a win-win for everyone. There are many vegan choices as well, from synthetic brushes to actual vegan products themselves, which is excellent. Keep up w/ Citrine on social medics for tip and tricks. I love the message behind Citrine and I will continue supporting 110%.
