Klout Perk

Hello loves!

I have a Klout perk.. thing I want to talk to you about. I received one in the mail today (Monday October 29th) and was honestly appalled at the amount of wasted packaging that they used. Now, I have gotten quite a few other packages from them and the size of what they send to the size of the box they use is absolutely outrageous. Don't send me a small nail polish in a big box! Seriously, what a waste. I keep saving all of the boxes I get because I feel it will be less wasteful that way. And plus, you never know when you are going to need a box! I've also not been receiving my perks, which honestly annoys me a lot. But not enough to say something because I'm not going to be one of those people who complains when they get something sent to them for free. I feel very lucky and privileged to be selected for the products that I do receive, IF I actually get them in the mail. So, I don't feel the need to go and complain. I hope that makes sense. I don't know, I just don't like complaining about things. Except.. this is what I've been doing so I am going to shut my yapper and get into why I am typing this. :)

 

I was selected to receive a Carol's Daughter Monoi Repairing Split End Sealer. Which did just come in the mail. So excited, I got a sample of this in this months Glam Bag and have been thoroughly enjoying it, so I jumped on this like a rabid dog. (crazy lady right here). This is a FULL sized product and it retails for $25 so I am seriously excited to be able to actually test this out for a longer period of time then the MyGlam... oops Ipsy sample. I'm not giving a review of it now because I need to test it out more. So far though, it is working very nicely. I'm getting my hair cut on the 3rd, so I will be able to test it better. :)

 

look at all of that extra box! There was a thing of bubble wrap in it but I was like a child popping the bubbles.. plus it made my niece laugh so. :P

 

Anyways that is really all I wanted to talk about! :)

I hope you all are having a lovely day! <3

Aveeno Ultra-Calming Makeup Removing Wipes

Hello Dolls!

 

This is a review of a product I received from Klout a WHILE back. I've been using and testing the product out extensively.. Considering the entire package was gone. I wanted to make sure I could give you a really good review of them. As of anything else I get from Klout, I got it sent to me for free. I am not affiliated with Klout of Aveeno, nor am I being sponsored or paid to do this review. All opinions are my own, so lets just jump right into it!

 

Now, I was excited when I saw that I was able to try these. I have been looking for a good makeup removing wipe for a while that wont break the bank, or break my skin out. So needless to say, I was excited when I got these in the mail. These wipes are not exactly cheap I guess, I didn't realize that until I checked their price in the store. They retail for around $6.99 for 25 wipes. Now the price varies depending on where you live, but this is the price for them where I live. Yikes! I couldn't believe it!



These wipes are Noncomedogenic (wont clog your pores), "Oil-Free", ophthalmologist and dermatologist tested. Meaning it is safe to use around your eyes and safe to use on your skin. NOW, as you might have noticed oil-free is in quotation marks. Why? Well, I swear to you that these were/are the greasiest makeup wipes I have EVER used. I swear it felt like I was just smearing oil on my face, it was horrid and my face did not feel clean at all. Yes, it did get my makeup off but the greasy feeling was way too much for me. After I used these I had to immediately wash my face afterwards or I broke out. Kind of goes against the Noncomedogenic claims, but that is just my skin.

These wipes are targeted towards people with sensitive skin, which I tend to have. I have a little mix of ALL the bloody skin types. That is a fun thing to deal with! Anyways, I just really.. I just couldn't get into them. YES, I did use them up because I am not going to waste them, I just figured out to wash my face immediately after. I didn't feel like it removed the oil as they claimed to do because they just made my face MORE oily. I am just on the fence about these to be honest. They weren't that great at getting the makeup off, if I wanted to get my makeup TOTALLY off, I had to use two wipes.

I know some people love these and some people hate these, which is why I am on the fence. Personally for me though, these are a no-go. I can not recommend these at all. I have tried other Aveeno products before and they were all fantastic, but this one just falls flat for me. :( Which stinks because Aveeno is a lovely skin care company!

 

Have you tried this before? What was YOUR opinion of it?!
