Mini Skin Care Haul!

Hey guys! I know it's been a (long) while since I've posted anything. I'm still trying to figure out how to make this beauty blog super awesome and whatnot. Anyway, on to the mini haul!

Summer is upon us, people! Th weather is hot, the pools are open, and the clothing is...well, skimpy. As a member of the League of Pale Skinned Girls, summer isn't exactly my favorite time of year. The sun is my fair skin's arch nemesis. I don't even try and lay out by the pool and get a tan because THIS is what happens...

OUCH!

I went to the pool yesterday with a friend of mine, and this was my punishment. Okay, maybe I should have used more sunscreen...but I JUST WANT A TAN DAMMIT! 

So why am I telling you about this hideous sunburn of mine? Well, it has to do with two of the products from my haul!


From left to right:
  • St. Ives Naturally Clear Green Tea Scrub. I keep seeing commercials for these new Green Tea products from St. Ives, so I thought I would pick up this scrub and give it a try. It says on the package that it "gently fights blemishes and reduces redness & irritation caused by acne." I'm looking forward to trying this product and seeing if it actually does reduce redness. That's the main reason I don't enjoy leaving the house without some sort of makeup on my face because my skin gets red and irritated for various reasons. 
  • Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer & Jergens Natural Glow Healthy Complexion Daily Facial Moisturizer. This is where my sunburn story come in. Instead of torturing my fair skin with the violent rays of the sun trying to get some sort of color, I've decided to try using these Jergens products. I've used the body lotion before, but I've never tried the facial moisturizer. When I used the body lotion before, I did see a difference in my skin color. I've read some reviews where people have said that the lotion turned them orange, but I didn't experience that. It gave me a very natural color. I'm hoping the facial moisturizer will do the same for my face!
  • Sally Hansen's Soften Your Step Ceramic Stone & Brush. Summertime also means breaking out the cute sandals and flip flops, which means your feet need to be in tip top shape! I'm on my feet a lot at work, so I know they could use a little TLC :)
What are some of YOUR favorite Summer beauty products?
