Please don't forget to enter Aveeno Black Friday Essentials Giveaway. It ends Wednesday, December 18, 2013 at 11:59 p.m. PST (Pacific time).


Earlier this year, I received a basket full of goodies including AVEENO® products.

I am so thankful I am part of the community of Aveeno ambassadors. I work with wonderful people and the experience has been great! For this post, I will review their Aveeno night cream.
Product Review: Aveeno® Positively Radiant Intensive Night Cream

Where to purchase: drugstores, mass merchandiser, and online at aveeno.com
Price: $16.99 for 1.7 oz/ 48 g

Made in Canada

Description from the back of the packaging: AVEENO® Positively Radiant® Intensive Night Cream is shown to give you an extra boost on all 5 Factors of Radiance - tone, texture, dullness, blotchiness and brown spots. This hydrating night cream contains a proven concentration of Active Naturals Total Soy Complex boosted with tone-evening vitamin B3, to help keep you looking fresh and luminous.
Ingredients:
Thoughts: When it comes to Aveeno moisturizers, I've had great experiences. For that reason, I was excited when I saw this product in the basket.
Here's how the moisturizer looks in the container.
Here's a swatch of the cream on my hand.

Now for my overall opinion... First of all, the smell fits with all Aveeno products. It's very light, sweet, spring-y summer scent. I actually like the smell! Secondly and my first impression was that the cream looked strange to me. I'm not too sure if all Aveeno Positively Radiant Intensive Night Cream are like this or I just happened to get a bad one. It didn't looked like a cream but more a paste. Since I wasn't sure, I still tried the cream. It didn't smell bad or feel different. I just thought it didn't look like any cream I've seen. Next, the texture is on the light side. It's not heavy and thick. It sinks into the skin very well especially if you have dry skin. This is great for all skin types, but definitely not the most moisturizing during the winter weather for dry skin individuals. I actually used this as a morning moisturizer instead of at nights. It was perfect for throughout the day. It wasn't heavy, but at the same time, it kept me moist. Lastly, I'm not too sure if I saw the "5 Factors of Radiance." It definitely helped with tone, dullness, texture, and blotchiness. My skin felt smooth and soft. I'm not too sure about brown spots. I did not see anything disappear.

Pros:
* Aveeno; a natural product I trust.
* Targets 5 Factors of Radiance - tone, texture, dullness, blotchiness and brown spots.
* Smell is light and sweet.
* Not a thick moisturizer.
* Skins into the skin, does not leave a heavy feel.
* Lasts throughout the day.

Cons:
* It look like a paste not a cream.

Would repurchase: Yes.

I will have to keep this in mind next time I need night cream. I have oily skin so the lightness of this really appeals to me. Plus, Aveeno is amazing so I always love trying out their goodies.

I'm glad I made you giggle... hehe~ :) Yeah, this product is pretty decent. I recommend it. :)


Thank you for well wishes last week. Unfortunately, I got sick and my comp kept shutting off. I finally fixed it and now I'm trying to catch up. I find it easy to stay about from blogging for couples of days easy, but returning and catching up seems hard. Maybe it's just me... hehe~

I love Aveeno and I'm so glad I get to work with them. I hope this cream works out for you! You need to keep me up-to-date once you try it. :)

Oh, it's definitely so easy to fell out but harder to get back on blogging!
Hope you are completely recovered by now and ready for the weekend! :)
