In celebration of Earth Day, AVEENO hosted a design contest with Fashion Institute of Technology students to create the print for a limited-edition, organic cotton AVEENO ENRIROSAX Bag. On Earth Day, April 22nd, the first 1,000 people to log-on to AVEENO.COM/JUBILANCE at 12:00 PM (Eastern Time) will receive the winning bag plus a sample of the new AVEENO NOURISH+ Hair Care Collection.

These eco-chic bags, designed by up-and-coming designer Jeff Tsui, will never be sold in stores and they benefit a great cause! For every bag given away, AVEENO will make a $10 donation to Global Green USA, which supports the fight against global climate change and the creation of green buildings and cities within the United States.

Or watch on Youtube here.

You are going to see more of these videos of me talking about makeup, skincare, and just my adventures as a beauty blogger and an interviewer for BeautyInterviews.com

Because this was my first video blog I only mentioned 9 products instead of 10. Sorry everyone, but here it is, product number 10: Function Self-Adjusting Powder Foundation in Light L1-L2 by Smashbox Cosmetics. It is on my top 10 list of the week because it gives my skin great coverage in no time. I use it with different brushes to achieve different finishes. Big powder brush all over my face and a small brush under my eyes and around the nose and moth.

Did you know? While practicing safe sunning at the beach is key, a whopping 80% of your lifetime sun exposure comes from daily activities. Just one year of unprotected daily sun exposure is like spending a week at the beach without sunscreen! The new Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion with SPF 15 offers a unique oatmeal formula that relieves and protects against dry skin, and offers broad-spectrum, stabilized sun protection for your body.

While summer is the most common time for recreational sun exposure, it is important not to lose sight of the incidental exposure that occurs during day-to-day activities like walking your dog or driving to work. Random exposure to UV rays can cause premature aging and wrinkles on your body, and can even lead to skin cancer. With this in mind, Aveeno developed the new Daily Moisturizing Lotion with SPF 15, which goes beyond long-lasting moisturization to protect your skin from daily sun exposure and future damage.

The hydrating moisturizer is formulated with the breakthrough sun protection technology complex from Aveeno, ACTIVE PHOTOBARRIER COMPLEX^TM, specifically engineered to deliver very high, very broad and photostable UVA and UVB protection. Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion with SPF 15 also contains natural Colloidal Oatmeal, an ingredient known for its ability to soothe dry skin, as well as rich emollients to provide 24-hour moisturization leaving skin soft, smooth and healthy looking – the perfect year-round beauty essential!
