Instead of studying...

Hello, my darlings!

Today, as I await my Anatomy final, I'm posting this blog to you. I should be studying the male and female reproductive organs but this is far more important (clearly).

I wanted to share with you some awesome skin care products that I have recently started using. I was looking for a new cleanser to try out because I was plum out of my old one and I have heard great things about Aveeno (I also hear they don't test on animals? Correct me if I'm mistaken someone!) but needless to say there was a sale! I ended up purchasing their Positivley Radient Cleanser and at first I wasn't that impressed. It claims to "bring out skin's natural radiance" and "even out skin tone and texture." The first few times I used it, it left my skin feeling tight... you know that soapy-tight feeling you get from over cleansing? That was the feeling. But I kept on using it because it's all I had. Eventually, I got to the point where my skin got used to the product and it actually does make my skin look more luminous than it used to -- a definate plus!

I can say that the packaging is a little boring. It doesn't come in a pretty box, just a pump bottle that's light green and beige... which is handier than a squeeze bottle. The cleanser itself is another story, though. It's this pretty green and pink iridescent color and it doesn't have too much of a lather... which I suppose can be attibuted to not having much of a detergent in it (the product says that it's "hypoallergenic," but take that at face value).

Another great product I found is the Meijer brand dup for the Olay everyday hydrating lotion. When I started using the Aveeno cleanser, I used this stuff to soothe my tight face and I can promise you that it does a great job! It's non-greasy which is awesome for my combination skin.

So, those are some fabulous finds. I hope that this helped you!

Don't forget to follow me! If you're one of the first ten, I'll give you candy!

(Ok, maybe not, but I'd really appreciate it!)
