What or Who Is A Natural Beauty?

 

Sponsored by Johnson & Johnson and ShopStyle

Everyone has their beauty ideal they wish to achieve. Mine has always been a natural dewy look, which brings me to natural beauty what it means to me. Below are the qualities I believe someone who evokes natural beauty embodies:

1. An appreciation for life! An ability to find meaning in a simple, fleeting moment just as easily as they can in a large-scale or life changing one…

2. A love for real food; which means enjoying your indulgences but also understand the importance of a balanced diet and quality of food.

3. A desire to challenge their mind and body. Expanding one's understanding via books and art or trying a new workout or a yoga pose. Value both physical and cognitive growth.

4. An attempt to exudes kindness and warmth to everyone.

5. An ability to walk out the door, with confidence and ready to conquer the world, every day!

I have never really been a 'make up' person. My friends and colleagues have often told me how 'brave' I am to step out 'au naturale' aka without an ounce of make up. Having lived over a decade in U.S. I have a better understanding of the insecurities and the relationship women have with makeup. I realize a lot of it stems from ours culture and upbringing. Personally, since I was brought up in an environment where no one ever applied make up unless they were attending a wedding, it never felt like a 'brave' move on my part to live sans make up. However it did encourage me to take better care of my skin as that is the only armor I wore. I have extensively researched and opted for products which are The Perfect Fit for All Over Beauty. Now as the weather is transitioning, so is my skin. I have been using the AVEENO Positively Radiant collection. It contains ingredients such as tone-evening ACTIVE NATURALS® Total Soy Complex which brighten the skin for a flawless radiance, which I crave the most!

 

AVEENO Positively Radiant - Daily Cleansing Pads

I recently discovered these pads and I have been obsessed with them ever since. These dual-textured cleansing pads gently exfoliate and lift away dirt, oil and makeup to leave skin soft, smooth and even-looking. I use them every night as the first step in my cleaning process. 

Formulated with ACTIVE NATURALS® moisture-rich soy extract, these pads help improve skin tone, texture and clarity, leaving your skin looking luminous.  They’re also oil free, soap free, hypoallergenic and noncomedogenic.

 

AVEENO Positively Radiant - Skin Brightening Daily Scrub

I have sensitive skin, and while this is a daily scrub I use it only two to three times a week. I use it in my morning skin care regime. This scrub helps improve skin tone, texture and clarity. 

The naturally derived granules gently exfoliate while you cleanse, leaving your skin soft, smooth, and looking luminous. It’s oil free, soap free, noncomedogenic (won’t clog pores), and hypoallergenic. 

AVEENO Positively Radiant - Brightening Cleanser

I follow up with this cleanser after the scrub in the morning. And just like the scrub this too helps improve skin tone, texture and clarity. 

OGX - Argan Dry Oil 

This weightless healing dry oil helps to mend split ends and tames fly-away frizzies. It helps infuse your locks with a veil of shimmer and shine. Spray is evenly on a towel try hair.  

 

While perfection is a mirage, you can still find your "Perfect Fit" from OGX and AVEENO at Rite Aid -  until 10/22 you can use the BOGO50% Aveeno Masterbrand AND/OR spend $20, Get 800 Plenti Points with OGX.
