If you’ve been following me for awhile (or have seen my IG Stories of the beauty products I travel with), you know that I’m a longtime fan of Aveeno products (and I was a brand ambassador with Aveeno for a number of years).
So in the spirit of sharing great products with this season, I couldn’t not include one Aveeno giveaway! The prize is valued at $100 and I made sure to include a few of my personal faves and a few others I think you’ll enjoy trying out if you haven’t already.
The Aveeno prize package includes:
- AVEENO® ABSOLUTELY AGELESS® Leave-On Mask. This light formula helps fight environmental factors and signs of aging. And leave-on works for me (anything to reduce steps in my beauty routine!).
- AVEENO® DAILY MOISTURIZING Body Wash. I shower a lot (twice a day on days i have an event to attend and a workout) and this body wash has colloidal oatmeal and natural oils that leaves skin looking and feeling great.
- AVEENO® DAILY MOISTURIZING Lotion. I use this daily in the summer on the evenings I shower in the evening. It’s not greasy plus it moisturizes for 24 hours.
- AVEENO® Eczema Care Anti-Itch Relief Balm. A go-to in the winter or any day of the year when my skin is feeling especially dry. It provides more intense hydration than the Daily Moisturizing Lotion.
- AVEENO® POSITIVELY RADIANT® Make-up Removing Wipes (not pictured above). Out of all the Aveeno products I use, this is the one I use most often. Great for after a workout to wipe off sweat or to clean off makeup on nights I’m feeling really tired, which is often when I’m traveling, or as a pre-cleanse before washing my face with a cleanser and rinsing, these wipes have moisture-rich soy extract and I like the product’s delicate fresh scent.
- AVEENO® PROTECT + HYDRATE™ Sunscreen Lotion SPF 45. Another Aveeno staple from my travel kit, as it’s under 100mL and slathers on nicely without feeling greasy.
The prize is valued at approximately $100. Here’s how to enter:
- Check out my Instagram post for this Aveeno giveaway and enter on Instagram (details are on the IG post).
- Get an additional entry by commenting on this blog post and sharing which of the products above you love (or want to try out) most.
This giveaway ends at 11:59 p.m. EST on Tuesday, March 26, 2019. It is open to Canadian residents, excluding Quebec. The winner will be chosen at random and announced on my Instagram Stories on Wednesday, March 27, 2019. The prize is awarded as is. The winner will be asked to fill out a release form to claim their prize. I am operating this giveaway on my own and it is not associated with Instagram.
Enter away!
March 20, 2019
I spend a fair bit of time away from home (and I talk about some of my travel must-haves here), and being away so often makes my time at home that much more precious to me. I struggle sometimes at making it a haven where I can kick back and relax (between what seems of endless loads of laundry–I’m just one person but between delicates, regular clothes and workout clothes, it piles up!–and constantly unpacking and repacking luggage, gah!).
But the one thing I know I don’t have to worry about is my stash of skincare essentials. As an Aveeno® Active Naturals® ambassador and a lifestyle writer, I get to try out a slew of products regularly, and these are the Aveeno products I turn to time and time again, and what helps me keep a healthy balance to my on-the-go lifestyle:
Because I’m working out regularly, I shampoo my hair often. Which can dry out hair, but I use Aveeno® Positively Nourishing Moisturize Shampoo and Conditioner so that my hair doesn’t get stripped. These two products are made with a formula of gentle moisturizers and includes a nourishing Wheat Complex and Oat Protein so my often over-shampooed hair maintains shine and strength. I usually don’t travel with these products (in order to save space in my luggage — carry-on only whenever possible!) and I notice the difference in how much more manageable my hair is once I return home and use these products instead of whatever was in my hotel room.
While I typically wear a higher SPF, during cooler months where I’m typically indoors for more time, I love to use Aveeno® Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer SPF 15. With its Total Soy Complex and natural light diffusers, it helps with my uneven skin tone and dark spots, and I like that it’s hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic. It is lightweight, though, so in the winter, I use a heavier night cream or an oil to give my dry skin (which gets exposed to harsh winter elements since I run outside all winter) more of rich dose of hydration.
As for my body, I’ve always been prone to dry skin, so with my skin recovering from winter and my frequent showering (often twice a day because of (1) life and (2) regular workouts), hydrating my skin well is actually the thing I’m most diligent about when it comes to my beauty routine. If I were to skip this step, I’d be scaly as a snake and itchy AF. So, in order to NOT be in such a state, I slather on the new Aveeno® Eczema Care Itch Relief Balm, which helps strengthen the skin’s natural moisture barrier and moisturizes skin well. It’s not greasy, and is gentle enough for daily use. Plus, I love that it’s in a large pot (it drives me crazy when pump dispenser’s stop pumping out lotion when there’s so much left in the bottle!).
Where I can slack off with my moisturizing routine is when it comes to my hands. Did you know–your hands are the first part of your body to show serious signs of aging?! So, I keep a tube of Aveeno® Daily Moisturizing Hand Cream on my office desk so I can apply it when I’m working on my computer.
I remember Aveeno® being on the bathroom shelf when I was growing up, actually, so it’s been a trusted staple on my bathroom shelf for practically my whole life, come to think about it.
