NOVEMBER 2024 BEAUTY FAVORITES
I can’t believe we’re in the final month of 2024! With December here, let’s look back at my November beauty favorites. While I didn’t have as many beauty favorites this month, the products that made it to my list are real gems!
November Beauty Favorites
shark beauty flexfusion
Shoutout to my husband for this early Christmas gift! I’ve been eyeing the Shark stylers for a while but could never quite talk myself into buying one. I’ve never been good at styling my hair, for most of my life, all I’ve ever done was wash it, blow dry it, and call it a day. But I’ve wanted to venture out and do more with my hair so getting the Shark FlexFusion has allowed me to have some fun with my hair! I love that the FlexFusion comes with so many attachments. It’s definitely the best bang for your buck compared to the Dyson or even the original Shark stylers but it’s an all-in-one.
Overall, all of the attachments have been relatively easy to use. It did take me a few tries to get the hang of the curl attachments but once I did, they’ve been my most used attachment. I have fine, straight hair so I was worried I wouldn’t be able to get the same results that I’ve seen others get. But with the right styling products, I haven’t had any issues with my hair holding a curl. While the curl attachments aren’t going to give the same curls as a traditional curling iron would, I found that they still gave me a bouncy, wavy blowout look.
Pick up your own Shark FlexFusion here at Sephora or here at Ulta. For a bigger purchase like this, I always recommend purchasing it during a sale.

makeup by Mario surrealskin soft blur powder
This Makeup By Mario powder is slowly moving its way to holy grail status! Every time I wear this powder, my complexion looks so smooth and flawless. I’ve been using this powder on top of the NARS Light Reflecting foundation and wow is that combo so beautiful! I love how this powder gives a flawless finish while still staying natural. It doesn’t look cakey and will keep your makeup set in place. I would recommend this powder for all types.

ravie beauty endless diffusion baked blush
I’ve been following Allie Glines for years and I was so excited when she launched her own makeup line, Ravie Beauty. I’m a big fan of the Effortless Lips lipsticks she first launched with the brand. So when I saw they were coming out with blushes, I purchased them as soon as they launched! These are baked blushes, meaning they start out as a cream and then are baked until completely dry. You get the smoothness of a cream and the effortless blendability of a powder. I found these blushes very easy to blend, especially when using the Ravie Beauty blush brush.
These shades are truly stunning and I hope they come out with more! I will admit, I am a little timid in using Oasis, which is the raspberry pink shade. It’s quite pigmented so I’ve just been using a very soft brush of this on top of one of the other shades when I want a deeper color. I think Oasis will be beautiful on darker skin tones though. Paradise, which is the toasted pink shade, has been my most used shade because it’s perfect for every day.
You can give these blushes a try for yourself by buying them here on Ravie Beauty’s website.
Beauty of joseon calming serum
Lately, my skin has been a bit sensitive. It may be from the colder weather or from trying some stronger actives. Either way, I’ve needed something to help calm my skin down. This Beauty of Joseon Calming Serum has really been a lifesaver for me this month! It isn’t a new serum for me but it hasn’t been one I’ve reached for in a while. I’m so glad I still had it in my collection though because it is such a great serum for sensitive skin. It contains green tea, mugwort extract, centella asiatica, and panthenol to soothe, calm, hydrate, and repair the skin barrier. I appreciate that it’s such a lightweight consistency because it absorbs into the skin easily and won’t cause pilling with other products.
I just repurchased another bottle of this serum! You can get it here on Amazon or directly from the Beauty of Joseon website here.
