Overall Rating: ★★★★☆
Price: $$ ($10-$20) – Available at Burt’s Bees, Drugstore.com, and Walmart.
Scent: Lemongrass
I Like: that it’s an all-natural acne treatment lotion. Great for use as an aftershave as well.
Not a fan of: the thick, somewhat sticky feel.

Burt’s Bees Natural Acne Solutions Daily Moisturizing Lotion is a reliable all-natural acne treatment if used daily.  Its active ingredient is salicylic acid, an anti-inflammatory compound sourced from willow bark.  Because this product contains salicylic acid and provides no sun protection, I suggest combining it during the day with your go-to SPF lotion to obtain the benefits of both moisturizers.  Burt’s Bees Natural Acne Solutions Daily Moisturizing Lotion also works well as an aftershave due to its anti-inflammatory properties – this especially applies to those who frequently suffer from razor burn or razor bumps.  One drawback is the lotion’s texture – my face felt a bit sticky and tight immediately after application.  I suppose it’s one of the trade-offs of using an all-natural moisturizing acne treatment.  The product has a light lemongrass scent – slightly herbal and lemony.  I suggest trying this face lotion if you want to manage occasional breakouts.  Its relatively low one percent salicylic acid content may not be enough to make a noticeable difference for those with highly problematic skin.

Overall Rating: ★★★★★
Price: $ (under $10) – Available at Burt’s Bees and Drugstore.com.
Scent: Woodsy & citrusy blend of bergamot, lemon, sweet orange, patchouli, and fir.
I like: that the product is all natural. The scent is masculine without being overpowering.  It cleans without leaving your skin feeling dry.
Not a fan of: nothing.  Just don’t expect a lot of lather.

Burt’s Bees Natural Skin Care for Men Body Wash is a wonderful smelling all-natural shower gel that doesn’t over-dry your skin.  The scent is a fresh and woodsy blend of bergamot, lemon, sweet orange, patchouli, and fir.  Because the body wash is all-natural, it doesn’t produce a lot of suds – which makes the product ideal for those with dry or sensitive skin.  To maximize lathering, I suggest using a shower sponge.   Otherwise, you’ll end up using a lot of product in a short amount of time.  At under ten dollars, this Burt’s Bees body wash is definitely worth trying.

My 2-Step Nighttime Skin Care Routine

Posted in Advice, Face Washes and Scrubs, Moisturizers: Face, Videos, tagged , , , , , , , , , , on August 31, 2011| Leave a Comment »

An evening skin care routine doesn’t require a lot of work.  In fact, it’s an easy two-step process that takes less than five minutes to complete.  Here’s a brief breakdown of what to do every night to improve your complexion and boost your confidence:

  • Step 1:  Use a gentle face wash.
  • Step 2:  Apply a non-SPF face moisturizer.
By incorporating this routine into your evenings before bed, you should notice an improvement in your appearance. Try to use products with little or no fragrance as synthetic scents can irritate the skin.  Also, avoid face washes that contain sulfates.

Overall Rating: ★★★★★
Price: $ (under $10) – Available at Burt’s Bees, Drugstore.com, and CVS.
Scent: Mildly masculine blend of bergamot, orange, patchouli, fir, and rosemary.
I like: the lotion’s gentleness, light consistency, all natural ingredients, mild scent, and versatility – it works as an aftershave/moisturizer. Not tested on animals.
Not a fan of: nothing.

Burt’s Bees Natural Skin Care for Men Aftershave works well on practically any skin type.  Just because the packaging says “aftershave” doesn’t mean you can’t use it as an everyday moisturizer – it’s versatile, though you’ll need to apply a facial sunscreen with this product if you’re going out during the day .  Because the lotion is 100% natural, it is ideal for those with sensitive skin who tend to breakout when using products with synthetic fragrances.  The subtle, naturally masculine scent is just right – it’s a blend of bergamot, lemon, orange, patchouli, fir, and rosemary.  If you’ve been using synthetic or alcohol-based aftershaves, now is the time for you to transition to more natural alternatives.  Start by trying this great moisturizer.

Overall Rating: ★★★★☆
Price: $ (under $10) – Available at Burt’s Bees, Drugstore.com, and CVS .
Scent: Natural earthy blend of patchouli, bergamot, rosemary, and calendula.
I Liked: the scent as well as the product’s purity.
I didn’t like: the shave cream’s thin consistency.

Burt’s Bees Natural Skin Care For Men Shave Cream smells wonderful, reminiscent of the scents in some Aveda products.  This 100% natural cream contains a calming blend of a variety of essential oils and extracts including patchouli, bergamot, rosemary, fir, chamomile, and calendula.  In addition to smelling great, this cream soothes while you shave and does not over-dry your skin.  It’s more of an everyday shave cream – I suggest using this product on lighter, one-to-two day beard growth.  The cream’s relatively thin consistency may not be ideal for shaving a thicker, heavier beard.
