Neutrogena Skin Soothing Eye Tint
Neutrogena Skin Soothing Eye Tint is a fun little cream eye shimmer, good for use as a light illuminizing base or as a targeted highlight.
I find the the tint to be a pretty good way to add a subtle shimmer without going overboard. This can also be used elsewhere on the face. I like to use the light pink shade (petal shimmer, linked above) on my cheek bones under a generally matte blush. I also have used it on my brow bones. Overall, it is a fun and inexpensive way to add just a bit of subtle shimmer anywhere you want it.
Neutrogena Eye Tint also has a cooling aspect to it, so it feels nice and can reduce puffiness. So that is a bonus!
Aside from the petal shade, it also comes in the shade Honey Shimmer.

A New Neutrogena Face: Mineral Sheers Powder Foundation, Sheer Highlighting Blush, and Nourishing Eye Duo
I love the new sheer blushes that are coming out. Neutrogena has a great one, along with a number of other new items, and I had the opportunity to put together a pretty nice look with some of them.
I got a nice medium coverage and even finish from the foundation and was pleased to see that it was not cut with talc or bismuth. It contains soy for skin health and has an SPF of 20. It lasted fine through an evening and generally worked well with my dry to combination skin. The dry spots didn’t flake, and the oily part stayed generally matte. The shade classic Ivory worked fine with my very fair skin. I have recently taken to wearing this nearly every day when I want something to cover my hyperpigmentation a bit (I have mild melasma) and want extra SPF, but don’t want a heavily made up look. Overall it is a great drugstore mineral foundation.

Neutrogena Healthy Volume Mascara
Neutrogena Healthy Volume Mascara
surprised me a little. You see, I tend to not fare well with mascara that has a big brush, and the brush with this one is huge. But it worked quite well for me!
In general, Neutrogena Healthy Volume gives just that–volume. I found that the lengthening was fine but not spectacular, while the thickening and general overall volume was the big benefit. And it didn’t clump,– not at all– not even with a large brush.
Healthy Volume mascara also contains olive oil for conditioning, hence the “healthy” part of the name. Olive oil is wonderful stuff, so I like the addition of it in a mascara. The mascara also removed easily and I had no issues wearing it with my contact lenses in.

Neutrogena MoistureShine Lip Products and Neutrogena Lip Balms: Lip Sheers, Cooling Hydrogel, Tinted Balm, Gloss, and Lip Balms
Neutrogena makes a number of quality lip products marketed at quite affordable prices. Being a bit of a lip product addict, I have tried most of them! I am particularly in love with Neutrogena MoistureShine Soothing Lip Sheers I recently purchased one of these in shimmering blush (#30), which is a nice light neutral mauve tone. For being a moisturizing product, which don’t often seem to hold color all that well, the color in the Neutrogena Moisture Shine, while being sheer, is also fairly rich and stays on quite well. With its moisturizers and vitamin E, the product feels good, does not have any unpleasant taste or smell (unfortunately some of the otherwise great products out there do), and is SPF 20. It also comes in an attractive thin silver case, giving it the look of a much more expensive product. I really love this stuff and highly recommend it.

Also in the Moisture Shine line is the Neutrogena MoistureShine Lip Soother Cooling Hydragel. I have one of these in gleam and love it. The hydrating gel really is soothing and it provides a nice lightly tinted and fairly long wearing gloss. This too has an SPF of 20, and I highly recommend it.
If you prefer a tinted balm, the Neutrogena Moisture MoistureShine Tinted Lip Balm might be for you. It contains vitamins C and E and is rated at SPF 20. I have one of these and like it just fine. It provides decent moisture and a bit of color. But I prefer the MoistureShine Lip Sheer and the Hydragel because they seem to moisturize a bit more and provide a bit more color and shine. For those wanting a very light balm with just a hint of color though, the tinted balm might be the preferred choice. The Neutrogena MoistureShine line also includes a MoistureShine Gloss. I haven’t tried this yet, but based on the other products in the line, I imagine that it is a pretty good product.

Neutrogena also makes a few other balms. Neutrogena Lip Moisturizer SPF 15 is a good standard lip balm, but I like my Alba and Banana Boat balms better because they don’t require reapplication as often. Neutrogena also makes flavored balms that come in pots. One I ran out and bought as soon as I learned of it is Neutrogena Lip Nutrition Lip Balm, Passion Fruit Boosting 20. I am passionate for passion fruit and this is the first time I have seen a balm with that flavor. It tastes great, lasts a long time, and adds a hint of color similar to that of Benefit Benetint Tinted Lip Balm, although I think it has a bit lower amount of pigment. It is also getting pretty good ratings from others who have tried it.

Self Tanners: Aveeno Continuous Radiance and Neutrogena Build a Tan
With summer fast approaching, I started trying self tanners about two weeks ago. Since I am quite pale, I like the gradual self tanning products. So, although I have always been happy with Neutrogena Build-a-Tan, I was excited to try Aveeno’s new adjustable tanning product, Aveeno Active Naturals Continuous Radiance Moisturizing Lotion for all skin tones. Fortunately I tried the Aveeno early so that I could work at exfoliating away the unfortunate results of using it before I had to travel for a wedding!
Yes, I had a pretty bad experience with the Aveeno product. The product itself comes in a container with a dial to set to the darkness of your desired fake tan. I started out by exfoliating well and setting the dial at the lightest setting. I saw absolutely no results, so I tried again with it dialed up one spot. Again, I saw no results. I then turned it up to setting number three. At that point, I got a fake tan of about the right shade on my arms, but a blotchy, discolored tan with some horrible dark orange tinged streaks on my legs. I haven’t had streaks like that from a fake and bake product in several years. Just in case I hadn’t exfoliated well enough, or rubbed in the product enough, or used too much etc., I let the dark streaks fade and carefully tried again with the same poor results. And then just to be sure, I gave it a third shot where I barely put any on. I still ended up with streaks, albeit a little better than the first two times. So, as much as I usually love Aveeno products, I won’t be using this one again, and do not recommend it.
The whole experience drove me back to my old favorite, Neutrogena Build a Tan. Build a Tan works very gradually. In fact, if I had to find a complaint about it, the very slow, albeit also very safe results, would be it. It takes me about four applications to get to my desired shade. But once there, If I reapply every couple of days, I can keep a nice light to medium fake tan going for some time. I also have very rarely run into problems with streaking, and when I did, it was generally clearly my fault (tip, don’t put handfuls of the stuff on your ankles)! The lotion goes on easily and dries quickly. I find it to be a summer staple. I also tried out Neutrogena Build-A-Tan for Faces Sunless Tanning SPF 15 last year and was happy with it.
I figure Neutrogena will be my regular self tanner again this year. I did buy a L’Oreal spray on self tanner out of curiosity though and will review that the near future.
