Moisturizer & Facial Cleansing Towelettes

I am a huge fan of Burt's Bees, and I'm always excited to try out their products. Especially as someone with sensitive skin, it's very important to me to be able to find a reliable product that I know won't irritate my skin. I've also been looking for a good moisturizer, so I'll be talking about that too.

The first thing I'll review today is the Facial Cleansing Towelettes by Burt's Bees. Until now I haven't been able to find a good makeup remover solution. Everything was either too oily, irritated my eyes or face, or just plain didn't work. But I really love these wipes! They don't irritate my skin or eyes, they don't make my face break out, and they even smell pretty dang great. I bought the Pink Grapefruit option, but if you are sensitive to strong perfumes or smells I would suggest getting another fragrance as it is quite strong. You can find them at Target, which is where I bought mine, or here on their website.

Unfortunately, I have to give a bad review to this next product. I will admit that it works fairly good, but only if you keep it VERY far away from your eyes. It's called up & up™ Sensitive Skin Facial Moisturizer. I also bought this at Target, and I was really hoping I'd finally found a good lotion for my face, but alas I'll have to keep searching. It makes my face more oily, it sits on my skin instead of being absorbed well, and if you get it anywhere near your eyes it burns like crazy. Maybe I should just stick with Burt's Bees from now on.

Since summer is coming up, I'll most likely be looking for good sunscreen options. I've had very bad luck with sunblock, but I'll give it another try.

No7 Dual Action Tinted Moisturiser

I am starting to realize that I shop at Target A LOT, haha! Not surprisingly, I bought this product at Target too! I also went to Chipotle and had an amazing burrito, despite the weird couple next to me getting in a fight because he never listens (he forgot to get extra guacamole). I'm getting off topic! ok! So, this tinted moisturiser has been very good for me, because I do tend to keep my makeup more natural and soft looking. It won't be perfect for everyone, but for the look I'm going for it is! It is very sheer, but has pretty good coverage. I also don't need a lot of it for it to look nice, so it'll last me ages. It does have SPF 15, which I don't really care one way or the other about, but I thought I'd mention it in case you guys care about that in your makeup. Since my skin is a bit sensitive, I have to be careful about what I use on it. This tinted moisturiser hasn't left my skin feeling irritated or made it break out,  which makes sense since it is Hypo-allergenic. The only thing I would say is, is that if you do have skin that is quite blemished or you need something that will even out your skin tone, maybe go with something more heavy duty as it is very sheer.

I rate this product: Love It!

Soothing Aloe Vera Deodorant Stick

 Once again this post is all about sensitive skin, and body odor. That’s right people! We are talking about arm pits. God bless those poor people who think they don’t need it. Or maybe God bless those people’s friends for sticking around so long? Anyway, I am not one of those people and I am VERY aware that I need it. Since my mom is extremely into health and organic products, I occasionally try to take a page from her book and try it out. So this month I am trying Soothing Aloe Vera Deodorant Stick. This particular one can be found on http://www.jason-personalcare.com/ but you can also find it in your local store. It costs about $6.39, which is a little more than I’d like to spend on deodorant but I guess it’s worth it for the health benefits. They also have many other safe, natural products that I'm sure are amazing but that I have not tried. This particular deodorant has been pretty good. Since I do have sensitive skin, it’s especially important for me to be careful what I put on my skin in places where I shave. True to its name, it has been soothing! Normally from deodorants I get raw irritated skin, but this has been amazing. However, I will say that it doesn’t seem to last as long as other deodorants I’ve tried and so I do not like that. I think when I run out of this I will try another scent of the same brand so stay tuned!
