Look tempting? Just don't forget the sunscreen! Photo: Ivan Prole/sxc.hu

I just got back from Belize. It was hot, ridiculously humid, and very sunny. I refer to myself as pigment-deprived -- meaning I am very fair-skinned and prone to sun damage -- so I needed the best sunscreen known to man that could withstand the tropical environment.

I put a bunch of them to the test. Here are my top skin-saving picks!

Best for Hiking: VMH Hypoallergenics Armada Sport 70 is super lightweight and stays put -- even in the stickiest of climates. I plan on using this one all summer, even if I'm just hanging out in the park.

Most Convenient: It's a tie! I love the very portable Mission Skincare Anti-Sting Sunscreen SPF 30+ Facestick for my lips, ears and around my eyes (my mom uses it on her whole face), but for reapplying on the go, nothing beats Aveeno Positively Ageless Sunblock Spray SPF 50.

aveenoSo many of us have a sallow, ruddy complexion that we just don't know what to do with. Even though it may not look it, surprise, your skin is probably just inflamed and/or irritated. This can be caused by a number of things, from acne to sun damage. But there are plenty of things you can do to relieve redness and make skin glow.

Aveeno sunblock for your face- it's a good idea

If you're just now searching the internet for sunscreen it may be too late. Drink some water and go to bed, you've got some healing to do.

However, if you are on the left coast and have yet to burn, or have further sun-filled plans for the weekend, let us suggest Aveeno Continuous Protection Sunblock Lotion, or as we like to call it, 'the good stuff.'

A.C.P.S.L. is specially formulated for the face, meaning it won't clog your pores. That's a relief. It's bad enough being in a swimsuit in public without having to worry about pending pimples.

Drugstore Beauty Queen: Aveeno Clear Complexion Foaming Cleanser

Posted Nov 28th 2007 at 6:20PM by Sarah J. Gim

Filed under: Skin Care

Aveeno Clear Complexion Foaming CleanserOh, how we love a drugstore beauty product that works like a department store product, and if it actually works better?

We're sold on that $5.99 price!

You know we've been on the hunt for a good cleanser for the last 12 months, trying everything from samples of high-end boutique-only lines to infomercial-inspired age-defying brands, and back to our old junior high drugstore days. Clearly, we already believe that drugstore facial cleansers are fine, but we're picky about them. Cetaphil? Sure, but we like something that foams. Clean and Clear Morning Burst? But we want to feel squeaky clean after rinsing (please, no lectures about how bad that "squeaky clean" feeling actually is for our skin).

We think we have found the answer with what is new to us from Aveeno, Clear Complexion Foaming Cleanser. Not only does it create a lather, but the liquid comes out of the dispenser as a light airy foam, like those foamy liquid handsoaps. The formula rinses clean, and so far, it doesn't overdry our already dry skin that's made worse in this winter weather. Aveeno has always been known as a "dermatologist's brand" like Eucerin, so we trusted it before we even bought it, but after using it now for a week, we love it. It probably helps that we're cheating by using it in conjunction with our Clarisonic brush, but hey, we made that investment last year.

Aveeno Clear Complexion Foaming Cleanser is available from your local drugstore for about $7, or at Amazon.com.

Do you have sensitive skin?

Posted Jun 1st 2007 at 9:28AM by Anne Metz

Filed under: Cosmetics, Skin Care

If the explosion of cosmetics geared towards skin type tells us anything, it's that a one-size fits all approach no longer flies when it comes to what you put on your face.

But how do you know what your skin type is?

To figure out if you have sensitive skin, all you need is water and an hour of free time. The next time your face is make-up free and you don't have anywhere to be for an hour, you can try this at home skin test.

Start by splashing your face with tepid water ten times (no soap!). Using a dry towel, carefully pat away the excess moisture so your skin can air dry. Wait 30 minutes before returning to your bathroom mirror. Looking at your face in the mirror, furrow your brow and smile widely. If your face feels tight and you know that you frequently break-out, you have sensitive skin.

Knowing whether or not you have sensitive skin puts you one step closer to taming that confounding complexion of yours. So for those of you with sensitive skin, you should check out Aveeno, Eucerin and Neutrogena. All three companies have great product lines geared towards folks with fickle faces.

Are you feeling Positively Radiant ®?

Posted Nov 1st 2006 at 8:31AM by Anne Metz

Filed under: Skin Care, Steals and Deals

Like a good girl, I wear sunscreen everyday -- even in the winter. I'm so consistent in my avoidance of the sun that I let myself get away with being self-righteous every once in a while. That was until a girlfriend of mine -- a doctor, no less -- informed me that my daily SPF 15 sunscreen probably did not cut the mustard. She recommended I bump it up to SPF 30.

For the last week, I've been using Aveeno's Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer, which, as it turns out, is the only moisturizer at my neighborhood CVS that comes with SPF 30. (I guess that makes me a user by default, doesn't it?) Regardless, I'm quite impressed with the way the lotion evens out my skin. I can already tell a difference in texture and the tone of my face. What is that difference? Well, everything just seems like a little more Positively Radiant ®.
