A Closer Look at AVEENO’s Ultra-Calming Makeup Removing Wipes

No Comments

I first gave you a peek of AVEENO’s Ultra-Calming Makeup Removing Wipes here, when I introduced some of their new summertime product additions. As I briefly mentioned there, I have had trouble finding a great makeup remover. I typically use baby oil, or a deep cleansing face wash while I am in the shower. The latter still doesn’t complete the job 100%, and baby oil can just be so messy.As always, AVEENO’s new makeup removing wipes do not disappoint. Their fresh smell and non-irritating formula, make for the perfect remover wipe that doesn’t burn my eyes (as many makeup removers do), and leaves my skin soft and smooth. The wipes use Active Naturals® Calming Feverfew™ – Feverfew is a natural calming flower, and is related to chamomile, which explains the soothing and gentle qualities. The package also has a hard plastic closure that snaps shut, as opposed to some other makeup removing wipe packages that…

Aveeno Beauty Expert Answers and MORE Giveaways!

3 Comments

I’ve talked about Aveeno’s amazing skin and beauty expert, Dr. Jessica Wu before, and now she is answering some need-to-know beauty questions submitted by you, and fellow Aveeno Ambassadors’ readers!Talking beauty with Dr. Wu:Suggestions for adult acne. “Adult women with acne tend to have drier skin than teens with acne, so traditional acne medications are often too drying and irritating, and make the situation worse. Your best bet is to use a gentle foaming cleanser (like Aveeno Ultra Calming Foaming cleanser) to remove makeup & surface oils, followed by a sulfur-based mask or treatment product (check out Clearasil Adult Treatment Cream, Bare Escentuals Blemish Therapy, or Murad Sulfur mask). Sulfur is antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, without being as drying as benzoyl peroxide. Since adult acne is often hormonal, it’s also a good idea to watch what you eat, especially when you’re PMS’ing: try to avoid dairy, refined carbs (bread, rice, potatoes, pasta) and sugar, which…

More Aveeno Treats! Positively Ageless

1 Comment

As an Aveeno Ambassador, I frequently come home to packages of Aveeno goodies awaiting me. My last package included their Positively Ageless Daily Exfoliating Cleanser, and their Positively Ageless Youth Perfecting Moisturizer with SPF 30.Both of these products use Aveeno’s Natural Shiitake Complex made with shiitake mushrooms, which are known for their medicinal and age-defying properties. The complex works with skin’s own natural renewal process and are shown to reveal healthy, younger-looking skin in just 4 weeks!I’ve been using the Positively Ageless Daily Exfoliating Cleanser these past couple of weeks and I absolutely love it! It’s a light foaming cleanser with tiny microbeads that are able to exfoliate and remove dead skin, dirt, and other impurities, but since the beads are so tiny, the cleanser is gentle enough to use daily, unlike other stronger exfoliators. I LOVE the way this cleanser smells – the fragrance is so fresh and natural. Besides the shiitake…

I was lucky enough (no pun intended) to be invited to a Lucky Magazine Dior Pretty Party here in South Florida, by the lovely Brittany of Clumps of Mascara. I am so excited to be able to take advantage of a fun event like this, since many events I get invited to take place in NYC.The event will be a fun, glam girls night that will include cupcakes, Dior beauty experts and artists, mini-makeovers, and tips and advice from the Dior beauty team! It’s an exclusive, intimate event, but because some other guests can’t make it, I even get to bring 2 friends along. I am super excited to get to meet other South Florida beauty gals and can’t wait to mingle and play with all of the gorgeous Dior products! We will be live tweeting tomorrow night throughout the event (about 6-8pm), with the hashtag #LuckyDior, so be sure to follow me (@MakeupandManies) and…
