Garnier Clearly Brighter Brightening & Smoothing Daily Moisturizer SPF15 and Micellar Cleansing Water #ActiveIsBetter

Disclosure: I’m a member of the Garnier program, and Garnier sent me samples from the their SkinActive product line to review with friends via an in-home party.

Time for a New Year, New You and Garnier decided that my friend's and I needed a little TLC to get us to that New You for 2016. I couldn't have been happier when I found out. I was able to get the ladies together recently to help us establish great skincare habits for the coming year. I received full size bottles of Garnier’s Clearly Brighter Brightening + Smoothing Daily Moisturizer SPF15 and Micellar Cleansing Water in regular and waterproof for me and 10 friends. Just dreamy, right? 

So the ladies came over and we spent some time catching up, having a few snacks and then began working on getting our skin more radiant. Garnier SkinActive is better for you and your skin. These reasonably priced products deliver better results to help you get the most out of life. Once you try some of the new Garnier products, you will see why #ActiveIsBetter!

We were so ready for fun. Christmas was over and we needed to find a new reason to catch up after the holidays and refresh ourselves. It wasn't quite ready for back-to-work time but trust me, all of us wanted to go back to work looking our best. Thanks to Garnier, it was easy and fun to do. Read more about my event below and learn why #ActiveIsBetter and how Garnier can help you get the most out of your skin, just like it did for us. All of my attendees had an opportunity to review both the Clearly Brighter Brightening + Smoothing Daily Moisturizer SPF 15 and Micellar Cleansing Water on SkinActive with a disclaimer that they received free product too. We love to share our experiences so that was lots of fun too.

 We received a giant box full of products to create a beautiful spa experience in my home

• 11 samples of Garnier Clearly Brighter Brightening & Smoothing Daily Moisturizer SPF15
• 8 samples of Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water (Regular)
• 2 samples of Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water (Waterproof)
• 1 sample of Pack of cotton pads
• 11 samples of Product Information Card
• 1 sample of $10 Visa gift card for party items  

This was a wonderful opportunity to refresh and renew just in time for 2016. Most all of us have gotten pretty vigilant about skincare and avoiding the sun. Garnier Clearly Brighter Brightening & Smoothing Daily Moisturizer SPF15 is a great way to brighten and smooth skin while protecting it each day. We were surprised that it only had an SPF15 though. Several of the gals mentioned that they use a SPF 30 every day. I know I have been using SPF30 or 45. The Garnier Clearly Brighter Brightening & Smoothing Daily Moisturizer SPF15 felt great on our skin and everyone liked how they looked when using it though.

We tried out Garnier Clearly Brighter Brightening and Smoothing Daily Moisturizer and liked the multiple benefits in one product. It was easy to apply and gentle on our skin. The pump bottle is convenient for travel too which we liked a lot. My facial skin felt rejuvenated and refreshed and had a nice glow. We liked the light scent too. We think that with continued use our skin will get clearer and brighter. Perhaps Garnier will consider a second option with a higher SPF.

Seventh Generation Organic Tampons and Chlorine Free Pantiliners are a better option @seventhgen #sponsored

Disclosure: I received these products free.

 

You have switched to organic food and beauty products but have you considered your tampons and pantiliners...well, well, well...we all use them right? What else are you going to do? Standard brands have chemicals and are bleached during processing. The thing is, now there are a myriad of options that might be better. Seventh Generation Organic Tampons and Chlorine Free Pantiliners are another option to consider if you are already buying organic foods.

The company shared that Seventh Generation Organic Tampons are made from certified organic cotton. They are whitened without using any kind of chlorine processing too. That means less chlorinated toxins released into our environment. Also, they are free of dyes and synthetic fragrances which are icky anyway. Who wants that?  Think about it, the average woman will use over 11,000 tampons in their life. Switching to organic cotton tampons are a simple but important choice. Try them and see how easy a cleaner, healthier world can be! I was glad I got to try Seventh Generation Organic Tampons & Chlorine-Free Pantiliners and think they will become a new staple for me. Check them out and see for yourself.
