Hooray! The weather in New York is finally getting warmer. Warmer weather for me means less products to use but definitely more sun protection since we’re showing a little bit more skin. Here is this week’s Bare Bottles post.
Aveeno Skin Relief 24hr Moisturizing Lotion
This lotion was just okay for me. I would apply it after my shower, and although it felt moisturizing, the moisture was not long-lasting. However I do love the size of this bottle — it can last for months! Another thing I love about this lotion is that it is fragrance free. I sometimes dislike wearing lotions with a fragrance because they can badly mix with my perfume. But if I had to choose another Aveeno lotion I would pick this one. I’m not sure what is the exact difference between the two, but for some reason I like the Daily Moisturizing one much better.
Olay Complete All Day Moisturizer SPF 15 – Sensitive Skin
To make a long story short I had previously bought this face moisturizer but for combination/oily skin and it gave my skin a burning sensation. I exchanged it for this sensitive version and it worked great. It is rare that I get a reaction to a product so my guess is that the sunscreen ingredients were to blame for the burning feeling. I’m not sure which ingredient it was but from now on I stick to zinc oxide (a gentler form of sunscreen) just to be sure. I’m not sure if I’ll buy this moisturizer again. I’m currently eyeing this one from Honest Beauty, which has only zinc oxide and a higher SPF.
