Neutrogena

Luminous, firmer, younger-looking skin? Sure, why not? 🙂 For today’s giveaway, day three of 12 (have you entered the Day 1 and Day 2 giveaways yet? Do it meow!), Neutrogena kicks your cleansing routine up a notch with their Microdermabrasian System.

It’s all about gentle, and it’s designed to be used at home (a lot less expensive than a spa).

Neutrogena says that after a single use, you’ll see softer, more luminous skin.

“Microdermabrasion System is a simple, convenient at-home system that features single-use puffs and the microdermabrasion applicator. Each puff is pre-dosed with ultra-fine crystals and mild purifiers for the perfect degree of gentle exfoliation. What’s more, the massaging micro-vibrations boost surface cell turnover for firmer, younger-looking skin.”

• 12 Days of Giveaways, Day 1: 7 Ways to Win the Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Collection (Ends Friday)

The tree is finally decorated, the On Demand yule log is crackling on the telly, Christmas tunes are playing, and the halls are decked. Yup, yup! I’m feelin’ the holiday spirit, y’all!

Which leads me to this: holiday giveaways. 🙂

This year, just like last, Makeup and Beauty Blog will be home to another 12 Days of Giveaways, thanks to the skin-lurving peeps at Neutrogena, one of my favorite drugstore brands (Quick note from my dry lips: they’d like to know if you have Fresh Papaya MoistureSmooth in your life yet? Because if not, you need it, like, yesterday.).

Today and on each of the next 11 days, I’ll be giving away a different batch of Neutrogena beauty and skincare prizes, and one super dope purse prize that will seriously knock your socks off. Here’s a hint: the brand of the bag rhymes with the phrase, “Gooey straight on…”

Yeah! I wish I could win it!

I really, really hope your 2013 ends on a high note and that your 2014 gets off to a great start.

Let’s get this party started, shall we?

For day one, our focus is skincare. The Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair collection in this four-piece prize package includes their Eye Cream, Serum, Night Moisturizer and a Broad Spectrum SPF 30 Sunscreen.

The secret sauce? Something called Accelerated Retinol SA, which Neutrogena formulated to quickly help fade the appearance of deep wrinkles, while brightening skin tone and smoothing fine lines and texture.

“Accelerated Retinol SA combines the highest concentration of Neutrogena’s Retinol SA with glucose complex — an exclusive booster that delivers pure stabilized retinol into the skin’s surface quickly and effectively – and Hyaluronic Acid that leaves skin feeling smoother and younger-looking.”

Hooray! Hooray! It’s finally spring. 🙂

Just about time to put away the winter coats and boots and bust out the cute spring dresses and sandals.

Hmm… Now that I think about it, along with revampinng my wardrobe, now might also be a good time to rethink my skincare regime, to stay on top of the weather (not as cold and drying anymore).

How did your skin fare this winter? If it could use some tender loving care, you’ll definitely want to enter this weekend’s Neutrogena giveaway, which features five skincare products to cleanse, exfoliate, heal and protect.

Which Neutrogena product/s would you stockpile if you found out they were going to discontinued soon? Are you a fast talker, or do you speak slowly? How do you feel about flip-flops to work? — you get the idea.
