Review: Aveeno Ultra-Calming Foaming Cleanser
What They Say: "With naturally calming feverfew, a natural ingredient related to chamomile, this light foaming cleanser helps visibly reduce redness and calm dry, irritated or sensitive skin while gently cleansing. It lifts away dirt, oil, and make-up without over-drying or aggravating even very sensitive skin. This cleanser is gentle enough to use every day.
Additional Product Benefits Include: fragrance-free, hypoallergenic, noncomedogenic, soap-free"
Jen's Experience: I've been really interested in trying the ultra-calming line from Aveeno because of my sensitive skin (especially in the winter) and this facial cleanser did not disappoint. I'm not really sure why the cleanser is foaming rather than just a cream, but the soft bubbles really did make me feel like I was pampering my face. It actually reminded me of the other foaming cleanser that I've tried, the Freeze 24/7 Daily Detoxifying Cleanser, but for a whole lot less money. I didn't see any dramatic improvements to my face in terms of sensitivity or breakouts, but it did a great job cleaning my face. In all, a good choice for those with sensitive skin, especially for the price.
Retail Price: $6.99 (Drugstore.com)

Review: Aveeno Ultra-Calming Foaming Cleanser:
Not sure about this cleanser, but DO NOT try the Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer (without SPF). I made the fatal mistake of switching moisturizers in early December and needless to say, my complexion looked Positively Disgusting. I have pretty nice skin as it is, but you wouldn't have known it this holiday season. Ew, I had cysts. I stopped using it and I'm back to normal. Normally I use professional skin care products, but when in a bind - St. Ive's Collagen Elastin Essential Moisturizer is the best you can buy in a drug store, hands down.
