The Clean Beauty Movement And Why It’s Here To Stay WITH Citrine Natural Beauty Bar Founder & CEO, Melissa Lenberg

A Thing Of Beauty

In 2021, Harper’s BAZAAR asked “should we dismantle the cult of clean beauty?” Today, I’m joined by Melissa Lenberg, founder and CEO of Citrine Natural Beauty Bar and one of the original clean beauty trailblazers. Melissa’s Phoenix-based boutique carries the latest and best in luxury clean beauty products. Citrine was one of the original boutiques to cultivate a social media presence and as clean beauty continues to be the center of debate throughout the beauty industry, Melissa shares how she's created such an amazing container of loyal followers within the niche. It’s all about high standards for her! We chat about what brands and products she’s currently loving, where she sees the future of this clean beauty movement, and the intersection of wellness and beauty. Melissa also shares how her personal health struggles (and the struggles of others) makes clean beauty a no-brainer in today's ever-expanding beauty market.
