Aveeno Baby Body Wash and Sunscreen for Face

Hey guys!

I'm going to write a review of two Aveeno baby products: body wash and sunscreen for face.
These products were provided by Aveeno and iHerb free of charge for my honest review.

Aveeno Baby Cleansing Therapy Moisturizing Wash and Aveeno Baby Face Stick Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 50

Aveeno Baby Cleansing Therapy Moisturizing Wash (Fragrance Free)

I was a little bit surprised when I squeezed this product out of the bottle.
I had thought it would be liquid soap, but it had the consistency of conditioner.
It doesn't lather so much but this doesn't bother me at all.
I didn't notice any smell when I was just using it, but when I directly sniffed the product, I noticed a weird smell, but this doesn't bother me since it's subtle.
I used this as shampoo on my daughter and I felt a comb ran more smoothly through her hair than with the body wash for babies we usually use.
I like that this product is very moisturizing!
I think this product is suitable for babies with dry skin.
It is fragrance free, dye free, and alcohol free.
It has been awarded the National Eczema Association Seal of Acceptance.

Ingredients:
Water, sodium trideceth sulfate, caprylic/capric triglyceride, glycerin, sodium lauroamphoacetate, sodium chloride, avena sativa (oat) kernel flour, laureth-2, citric acid, cyamopsis tetragonoloba (guar) gun, ceramide NP, avena sativa (oat) kernel extract, panthenol, sodium benzoate, guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride

Aveeno Baby Face Stick Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 50
Aveeno Baby Face Stick Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 50

This product is about 2.6 inches (6.7 cm) long.
I like this product a lot since it is not greasy and relatively mild ingredients are used.
I have used some baby sunscreens that are very greasy.
Active ingredients are titanium dioxide and zinc oxide. These are minerals and good ingredients for sunscreens.
It leaves a very subtle white layer on the skin but this doesn't bother me.
It is oil free and fragrance free.
It has been awarded the National Eczema Association Seal of Acceptance.
I highly recommend this product!

Active ingredients:
Titanium Dioxide (8.09%), Zinc Oxide (6.8%)
Inactive ingredients:
C-12-15 alkyl benzoate, octyldodecyl neopentanoate, dimethicone, paraffin, ozokerite, beeswax, phenyl trimethicone, euphorbia cerifera (candelilla) wax, polyethylene, polyhydroxystearic acid, dipropylene glycol dibenzoate, triethoxycaprylylsilane, PPG-15 stearyl ether benzoate, caprylyl glycol, ethylhexylglycerin, avena sativa (oat) kernel flour, BHT

今日はAveeno Babyのボディソープと顔用日焼け止めを使って見た感想を書こうと思います。
AveenoとiHerbというオンラインストアから、私の本音での感想のために無料で提供された物です。

アヴィーノ　ベイビー　クレンジング　セラピー　モイスチャライジング　ウォッシュ　(無香料）

これは赤ちゃん用湿疹肌向けのボディーソープです。
容器から出した時、少し驚きました。
液状と思っていたけど、コンディショナーのような質感だったからです。
あまり泡立ちませんが、私は気になりません。
普通に使用中は特に何の香りもしませんが、鼻を近づけて匂いを嗅いでみると、少し微妙な匂いがしました。
けれど、微かなので私は気になりません。
娘にシャンプーとして使ってみたところ、私たちがいつも使っている他の赤ちゃん用ボディーソープより指どおりが良いようです。
肌がとてもしっとりする点がいいですね。
乾燥肌の赤ちゃんにいいと思います。
無香料、染料不使用、アルコールフリーです。
アメリカの全国アトピー性皮膚炎協会に承認されています。

アヴィーノ　ベイビー　フェイス　スティック　サンスクリーン　ブロードスペクトラム　SPF 50

これはSPF50の赤ちゃん向けの顔用日焼け止めスティックです。
大きさは約６．７ｃｍです。
べたつかない点がすごくいいです！それに比較的優しめの成分が使われています。
今まですごくオイリーな赤ちゃん用の日焼け止めを使ったことがあるので。。。
有効成分としては二酸化チタンと酸化亜鉛が使用されています。
これらはミネラルで、良い日焼け止めの成分です。
使用するとわずかに顔が白くなりますが、私は気になりません。
オイルフリー、無香料です。
アメリカの全国アトピー性皮膚炎協会に承認されています。
私的にすごくおすすめの日焼け止めです。

もし上記のボディーソープや日焼け止め、または他のAveenoの製品に興味を持たれたら、以下のリンクを使えば５％オフになりますよ（＾＾）

Makeup Brush Basics 2 - Foundation Brush and Eyeliner Brush

Hey girls!

In the previous post, I wrote about the basics of powder brushes, blush brushes, and eyeshadow brushes (part 1 of 2).
I hope it helped your decision of which makeup brushes to get.

Today, I will talk about foundation brushes and eyeliner brushes (part 2 of 2).
I will explain the basics, and share my story about a wrong usage of a brush, as well.

- Foundation brush

There are multiple types of foundation brushes as well.

1. Classic flat foundation brush
This is usually ideal for liquid or cream foundations and it will give you high coverage.
(Sigma F60, MAC 190 etc.)

2. Kabuki / flat-top brush
Some kabuki brushes' bristles are more dense and ideal for liquid or cream foundations.
Others have more loosely packed bristles and are ideal for powder or mineral foundations.
It's recommended to read the item descriptions of each brush.
Many of the dense bristle ones say it will give you an airbrushed like finish.
(Sigma F84, MAC 196 etc.)

3. Stippling brush
This is usually used when you want to have light coverage.
This can be used for liquid, cream, powder, and mineral foundations.
(Sigma F50, MAC 187 etc.)

The brush I have is this: Sigma Angled Kabuki - F84.
According to Sigma Beauty, the recommended usage of this brush is for blending cream blush or bronzer onto the skin, but I read many reviews that say this brush is great to apply liquid or cream foundations, so I decided to try this one.
Let me mention that how to use a kabuki foundation brush matters.
For the first couple times I tried this brush, my face looked streaky.
This brush has gotten so many good reviews that say you can apply foundation evenly and nicely.
So, I thought I was doing something wrong, and I was.
I was using the side of the brush to apply foundation and stroking.
Instead, you should use the tip of the brush, stipple firstly and then buff in a circular motion.
After trying this way, I can apply foundation nicely with this brush.
However, l tend to just use my fingers because of easiness most of the time.
I feel I need to wash my foundation brush after each usage since it's used with a cream foundation and may harden if I leave it, although I don't feel that way with the other brushes used for applying powder products.

- Eyeliner brush

If you use pencil eyeliner or liquid eyeliner with bristles, you don't need an eyeliner brush.
If you use gel or cream eyeliner that comes in a pot, you need to use a brush accompanying the product or a separately purchased one.

The brush I have is this: Sigma Eyeliner - E05.
This was given by Sigma Beauty when I bought their other brushes.
This has tapered bristles and is good for creating precise lines.
(Sigma E05, MAC 09 etc.)
I use this for winged eyeliner too, but I imagine it will be easier to use the kind I mention below.

There are eyeliner brushes whose bristles are flat and angled.
This one - Sigma Small Angle Brush E65 - has many good reviews that say this works great for creating winged eyeliner.
(Sigma E65, MAC 266 etc.)

I hope my makeup brush basics posts have given you a good understanding about makeup brushes!
Thanks for reading and have a great day :)
