New purchase plus reviews

I am very excited about my two new purchases! I bought Dove Pro-Age Body Wash and Aveeno Daily Firming Moisturizing Lotion a few days ago. I got them from Duty Free and they cost $5.98 and $9.48, respectively. As you might have noticed, both of them are anti-aging products. =D Well ever since that fine-lines-under- my-eyes incident, I didn't just get obsessed with eye creams but also with most anti-aging skin care products. I've been using these for a couple of days now and I've got reviews for you guys. =)

1.) Dove Pro-Age Body Wash

I was looking around the body wash section when PRO-AGE caught my attention. I immediately got a hold of it and read the detail.

It says:

Created to give your skin back what it needs right now: improved surface cell renewal replenishment of natural lipids. 1/4 moisturizing cream with sunflower seed & olive oils for soft and luminous skin

Pro-age is different. It's commited to making a real difference in your skin's condition - not just today but also tomorrow. How pro-age Beauty Body Wash works. By combining Dove 1/4 moisturising cream and active ingredients at levels that will improve skin surface cell turnover while gently cleansing. Glycerin (5%) to add gydating nourishment and help skin keep it. Natural sunflower seed oil (10%) rich in essential lipids to help strengthen skin's moisture barrier. Olive Oil (1%) to provide additional care to your skin.

Before I decided to buy this one, I was actually quite a bit hesitant. I tried to smell the product from the bottle and I didn't like the scent. Not because it smelled bad, but I just don't like products that smelled too flowery or has a strong scent. But eventually, I purchased it anyway. When I got to use it, I immediately fell in love with it. =) I lather it up using my shower mitt and when I'm done and all dried up, the scent isn't too strong after all. It's just right... And my body feels so soft and smooth. Even without lotion, my body feels moisturized. I actually just took a bath right before I wrote this entry, I hadn't applied lotion yet and my body still feels smooth and moisturzied. I love love love it! Although, I will still apply lotion later, heehee... Anyway, I really hope it would also have a good effect in the future.
Rating: Very good kitty! Meow!

2.) Aveeno Daily Firming Moisturizing Lotion - I heard a lot of good reviews about Aveeno. So I went and looked around to see if I might like something.. I saw this bottle and read about it:

Clinically proven to improve skin's firmness and elasticity. Moisturizes all day long. With mineral peptide complex, natural soy and oatmeal.

Aveeno Daily Firming Moisturizing Lotion goes beyond long-lasting moistrization to naturally help improve your skin's firmness and elasticity. This advanced formula with mineral peptide complex is clinically proven to improve skin texture and provide visibly firmer, resilient skin. The light, non greasy lotion, with natural soy and oatmeal, lovks in moisture so your skin feels softer and smoother all day long. This hypoallergenic formula is even gentle enough for sensitive skin.

I do not have sagging skin or anything =D .. But I decided to try this one anyway, hoping that it'll help my skin in the future. I have used it a couple of times already and I like that it's non-greasy. The texture is rich so one pump is good enough for one leg. The smell is quite strong but it doesn't smell anything like flower. It actually reminds me of a shampoo, I think Head and Shoulders. =D I don't know about the firming effect, but I guess it's okay for a moisturizing body lotion... I don't know if I am going to repurchase, though. The smell kind of turns me off. I might just try other Aveeno products, something that doesn't have strong scent.
Rating: Just a normal little kitty.

That's all for now. I will be doing a review about the Camomile makeup remover from The Body Shop soon. Later! =)

BTW: Anyone interested with VMV Hypoallergenics products, they will have a sale tomorrow. I think it's 25% off plus 10% off if you have your SM advantage card. Though I am not sure if other VMV stores on other malls will have their sale, too.
