Donne un hâle blanc - s'estompe mal

Je voulais vraiment aimer cette lotion d'Aveeno, mais ça n'a simplement pas marché pour moi.
J'ai reçu cette lotion de ChickAdvisor pour l'essayer gratuitement, et j'étais vraiment vendue à l'idée d'avoir une lotion qui intègre un écran solaire, puisque ça m'enlève une étape dans ma routine matinale.

Le problème, c'est que cette lotion n'est pas assez hydratante pour les parties sèches de ma peau. (J'imagine que l'avantage, c'est qu'elle n'est pas graisseuse, comme plusieurs écrans solaires.)

Par ailleurs, la lotion est vraiment blanche et s'estompe mal. La couleur blanche laisse un hâle très pâle sur la peau. Ça fait en sortes que cette lotion ne peut pas vraiment fonctionner pour les personnes de couleur - à moins qu'elles couvrent le tout avec un fond de teint.

Not my favourite

So I got this product for free to try from Chick Advisor. I will say I am often hit and miss with Aveeno products - some I love, and some I don't. Unfortunately, this is one that I don't love. First off the good points. It advertises that it is fragrance free and I would say this is accurate. Although it does have a slight smell to it, it does not have any strong added scent - the smell that it has is barely noticeable and I think is just a result of the ingredients - they aren't able to completely remove any smell at all. I could smell it while it was on my fingers, but once rubbed in to my skin, I could smell nothing at all. I also did find that it was mild - it definitely did not irritate my skin or leave it red. Now for the things I didn't like. First of all I did not enjoy the feeling of it on my skin. While in general it went on light and it didn't feel heavy on my face, I found it left my face feeling kind of gritty and dirty to the touch. Almost as if I had been out in the heat sweating, and then the sweat dried on my face. Normally I use a facial sunscreen with moisturizer in it and it feels like NOTHING is on my skin, so I had higher expectations for something that was supposed to be a moisturizer first, with sunscreen added into it. The other major issue I have with it is the cost. I find Aveeno products to be very pricy! If I really like the product I am definitely willing to pay more, but I wouldn't pay more for this. As I mentioned, I usually just use a facial sunscreen (same SPF 30) and when I compared the prices, my usual brand is $0.20/mL, while the Aveeno is $0.26/mL - while this may not seem like a lot, it works out to being about $10 per 50mL bottle of the stuff I like BETTER and $18 for a 68mL bottle of the Aveeno (these prices are from Walmart - I shudder to think how much the Aveeno would be at Shoppers!). I'd rather stick with my brand!

Sensitive skin doesn't react....but it leaves white residue

With sensitive skin, I am always looking out for products that work well that I won't react to. This product does 50% of that for me.

On the positive end: I had no negative skin reaction to this moisturizer. It has no scent and my makeup went on fine with use of a primer.

On the downside: it is a thicker consistency that other moisturizers I have used and therefore more opaque. It didn't spread as nicely on my skin so I had to use more than usual. It also didn't go on smoothly and evenly so I was left with patches of white residue that I had to rub in or off (which I unfortunately noticed throughout my work day). On my skin it had a slight sticky feeling and didn't leave my skin feeling smooth and soft.

I tried this in spring in Canada, so I can't speak to the SPF protection claim.

If someone has really sensitive skin, this may be a great product, but I hate that you might have to trade off quality for having no adverse reactions.

Thanks to ChickAdvisor for sending me this product for free to test out!

Bof.

J’ai reçu ce produit en #cadeau la semaine dernière et pour le moment je le trouve bien. Je n’ai pas aimé la sensation sur mon visage (laisse ma peau grasse) mais j’ai aimé pour les mains, coudes, genoux. Point négatif, le coût (19.99$). Je trouve ça cher..

Too thick

I received the Aveeno ultra calming daily moisturizer with spf 30 in my free Aveeno box sent from Aveeno and Chick Advisor. I used the lotion after using the matching cleanser (which i loved) but wasn't satisfied with the results. I found the lotion to be too thick and it really did not absorb well at all and left a residue feeling. I also didnt notice much of a difference in my skins tone or redness reduction. It may work better for someone with drier skin but this product just wasn't for me. #GotItFree
