So I belong to this thing called Bzz Agent. I get sample products that I try out and share my experience with everyone.
I was recently chosen for the Burt's Bees Sensitive Skin campaign, and here is my experience.


Sensitive Skin Facial Cleanser
Rating: 4/5

Pros:

  • Little to no smell
  • Great, creamy texture
  • Removes everything, including waterproof eye makeup
  • Doesn't leave your skin too dry
  • No break outs or reactions
Cons:
  • Didn't leave my skin as soft as other products
  • Had to wash twice to get it all off
Overall, I would probably not buy it for myself but would recommend to friends! I need something more intense (exfoliating or moisturizing) for my 30+ year old skin.


Sensitive Skin Daily Moisturizing Cream
Rating: 2/5

Pros:

  • Little to no smell
  • No break outs or reactions
Cons:
  • Feels sticky on
  • Make up doesn't sit well on your skin after
  • Needed 2+ coats to actually moisturize
I hated how this felt on my skin. It didn't really moisturize and made me feel clammy. Not recommended!

The beginning

A little bit about me. I've always loved how other girls put their looks together. I can spot good fashion when I see it, and I will call you out if your makeup looks bad.

But over time, you start to lose your passion and your flare for trends. Your skin changes and you're caught being 30 and wearing glitter lotions and candy floss perfume.

I'm starting over. My tried-and-true products don't work for me anymore.
I've subscribed to multiple sample boxes (Luxe, Topbox, Glossy, Glymm).
I've started checking MakeUp Alley and /r/makeupaddiction for advice and reviews.
And I'm determined to find the perfect looks, skin care, hair care... and the perfect red lipstick.

I'm on a mission to age gracefully and look good while doing it. This is my journey!
