Reality:I had high hopes for this and since I have seen enough adds for it I was thinking okay maybe this might be freaking awesome.Basically this felt like sunscreen. I guess with the whole 30spf I should have known better. I did not notice any extra moisture to my skin, no younger looking skin and it just felt too greasy. This product did not absorb nicely in my skin and I am not a fan. I did purchase this for like $4.00 on clearance so luckily there wasn't much money wasted on this one. I just wouldn't recommend this to anyone with oily to combo skin, or anyone with a face. :p The only pro I can think of for this is the pump, gotta love products that actually have a pump!
Claims:This naturally nourishing lotion contains Natural Colloidal Oatmeal
blended with rich emollients and is now proven to help skin build a
"moisture reserve," so skin can replenish itself. Its fast-absorbing
formula helps prevent and protect dry skin, leaving it feeling soft,
smooth and naturally healthy looking. It's fragrance free, non-greasy,
noncomedogenic and gentle enough for everyday use - good for sensitive
skin.
Reality: Sounds pretty nice hey? Welllll we've all seen the Aveeno commercials and I did think okay fine I will give it a try especially since it was a travel size what harm is it? I purchased this for my tattoo that I had gotten in the summer thinking since its fragrance free, noncomedogenic it would be a great moisturizer for it. WRONG it burned like a mother fucker! I had to wipe it off and use my jergens instead. Okay okay maybe this isn't meant for new tattoos but if Jergens is I would think Aveeno would be. I did randomly use this but it didn't have any major pros.
Claims:Our Soothing Facial Toner leaves your skin feeling clean and refreshed,
plus it's a perfect blend of our purest possible skin loving ingredients
with an added vitamin.
Reality: You know when you rinse your skin with water? Well that's pretty much what this is only its about $7. PLEASE someone explain the hype of these Simple products?! I have tried 3 different products and been extremely disappointed with all of them. I do not have super sensitive skin so these might work more for that type of skin.
Maybe my bottle was just replaced with water before I bought it?;)
Claims: All-in-one skin care that gives 5 benefits: Hydrates, corrects wrinkles
and imperfections, protects, evens and brightens skin tone.
Reality: Oh they seemed to have forgot to mention these benefits too, added greasiness,grossness and shiny face syndrome included for one low price! This made my face look like it was sopping wet covered in grease. Sick! The scent is pretty over powering if you are sensitive to scents.
I liked the color and how light this product is since I am not a big fan of foundation this is a good alternative. Possibly if you have dry skin this might work for you but as for us oily people stay clear!
Okay enough being dramatic..these just didn't work for me.
Have you tried any of these? Any better luck then me?
