Rodan + Fields giveaway

Hi friends! We’re enjoying one last day in Cali, but in the meantime, I have some fun posts planned! Today is a giveaway and Fashion post, and tomorrow: a new dance cardio video. Hope you’re having a wonderful start to your week! xo

_______________________________________________________________

My normal skincare routine would probably make some people shudder.

It involves using a little cleanser (usually Yes To brand or Juice Beauty) on the Clairsonic at night, nighttime moisturizer, and tinted SPF moisturizer for day. Once or twice a week, I feel fancy and use a LUSH face mask. That’s it. Full-on skincare/makeup routines freak me out a little bit (toner, exfoliator, makeup remover, primer, whaaaaat?!) and I always feel intimidated when I check out new products. If it ain’t broke, right?

Well, my friend Jeni has always had absolutely gorgeous skin. In the 5 years I’ve known her, it’s continued to become even more vibrant and beautiful. When she last came to visit, it was absolutely glowing, so I asked what products she’d been using. (Unlike me, Jeni knows about makeup and skincare and stuff haha.) She had started using the Rodan + Fields products (founded by the same doctors who created the ProActiv solution) and loved them so much that she became a consultant for them. Since I was curious to try it out, she offered to send me some samples when she got home. (And because she’s one of my closest friends and know it’s important to me, she also triple-checked to make sure that the products weren’t tested on animals. Rodan +Fields is cruelty-free and supported by PETA.)

When I first opened the package, I was really excited to try out the facial, lip serum and exfoliator she sent. The verdict? I absolutely loved everything. My skin looked noticeably different in a couple of weeks. Since I found the products to be extremely effective (yet gentle enough for my sensitive skin) I asked Jeni if she might be able to do a giveaway.

Here’s what one lucky winner will receive:

Rodan

 

Mini Facial:
 

You can check out more of the products on her site here and there is a solution tool to help decide what products would be best for your skin.

How to enter:

Just leave a comment with with your favorite skincare or beauty product. If I had to narrow it down to one, mine would be Moroccan oil. It makes my hair smell great and keeps the frizzies away.

I’ll pick the winner via random number generator and announce in this week’s Friday Faves post.

Hope you have a wonderful day! <3

xoxo

    Coconut oil is my fave – so useful and smells great!

  2. Ashley Lynch on July 16, 2013 at 11:55 am

    I love St. Ives Collagen Moisturizer! I use it at night and it doesn’t bother my sensitive skin!

  3. Dyanna on July 16, 2013 at 11:55 am

    I absolutely love my body/face scrub from LUSH… and coconut oil it’s made a huge difference for my skin!

  4. Marisa @ Uproot from Oregon on July 16, 2013 at 11:56 am

    These looks like amazing products (especially the mini facial)! My favorite current pick is Aquaphor, as I moved to CO and have had dry, cracked lips for the past few months since moving. I slather it on my lips and it looks like a shiny lipgloss- score!

  5. Christel on July 16, 2013 at 11:56 am

    I love my clairsonic.

  6. Lisa on July 16, 2013 at 11:56 am

    Sunscreen will always be my number one tip and favorite beauty product all around. So simple, but so necessary.

  7. Becca @ familyfaithfitness on July 16, 2013 at 11:57 am

    Honestly, I’m a total nutcase when it comes to new things. I’m sort of like you, if it ain’t broke…. Anyway I love my chap sticks and moisturizer… I honestly use the clean and clear one and it’s fabulous!
    I would love to win this and break out of my “comfort” zone!
    Hope you guys are having a blast in Cali!

  8. Hannah on July 16, 2013 at 11:57 am

    I have really sensitive skin and try not to buy anything that uses parabens or SLS. I love JASON lavender body wash! It makes me happy!

  9. Jocelyn on July 16, 2013 at 11:57 am

    I use coconut oil or 100 percent pure shea butter…have to heat it up in the mic 🙂

  10. Shannon P on July 16, 2013 at 11:57 am

    Oil of Olay face lotion. My nana used it, my mom uses it, and I use it 🙂

  11. Kristen on July 16, 2013 at 11:57 am

    I love Moroccan oil too! I just got it from my hairdresser and it does amazing things for my Florida humidity frizzy hair 🙂

  12. Valerie on July 16, 2013 at 11:58 am

    Just one???? Wow. Lip balm! I’m an addict.

  13. Danielle Volandt on July 16, 2013 at 11:58 am

    Neutrogena Naturals Fresh Cleansing + Makeup Remover!

  14. hundredforever on July 16, 2013 at 11:58 am

    I swear by the overnight serum by Bare Minerals. It’s pricey, but it is like liquid gold for your face!

  15. Zana on July 16, 2013 at 11:58 am

    Moroccan oil is a must have – it smells so great!

  16. Soph on July 16, 2013 at 11:59 am

    coconut oil!!!

  17. kandi on July 16, 2013 at 11:59 am

    I love my clarisonic. I can’t imagine my life without it now!

  18. Mirna on July 16, 2013 at 11:59 am

    Absolutely love Peter Thomas Roth Acne Spot and Area Treatment!!

    • Mirna on July 16, 2013 at 11:59 am

      And my clarisonic, of course!

  19. RachelG on July 16, 2013 at 11:59 am

    I wish I could think of a favorite product but I’m super clueless about this stuff. I’ve always been proud of my skin, a product of CVS brand moisturizer (I guess my favorite/only product), but have always felt like I’m missing that “glow”. I’d love to win these products and learn more about skin care! 🙂

  20. Natasha on July 16, 2013 at 11:59 am

    I love face moisturizer. Purpose for the day and arbonne at night. Moisturizing is key!! I have a weird obsession with skin 🙂

  21. Alissa on July 16, 2013 at 11:59 am

    Avon moisturizer with SPF 🙂

  22. Kelly on July 16, 2013 at 12:00 pm

    Chapstick!!!!!

  23. Jenn on July 16, 2013 at 12:00 pm

    I’m obsessed with BB Cream – right now, the Estee Lauder brand is my favorite!

  24. Diamond on July 16, 2013 at 12:00 pm

    I love my WEN but have being doing No-poo for a while. I am missing my WEN. I also love coconut oil

  25. Erin on July 16, 2013 at 12:00 pm

    I generally just wash up with a tea tree oil cleanser. Gets me squeaky clean like no other. If I have to by fancy, I might use a tinted SPF moisturizer.

  26. Emily on July 16, 2013 at 12:00 pm

    I’d have to agree with you on the Moroccan Oil! I love that stuff! It makes my hair feel so good and it smells amazing!

  27. Nicole on July 16, 2013 at 12:01 pm

    Coconut oil, Carmex chapstick, and my BioElements face products.

  28. Ashley Figur on July 16, 2013 at 12:01 pm

    I really love the moroccan oil too for my hair since it’s naturally crazy curly and I like to keep chia pet look down to a minimum-lol. I also have to say that the Queen Helene Avocado and Olive Oil face mask is AMAZING! It leaves your skin feeling like satin afterwards.

  29. Katie B on July 16, 2013 at 12:01 pm

    I love the dessert essence coconut hair products-shampoo, conditioner, and cream. 🙂 Works great with my thick, wavy hair.

  30. Taylor on July 16, 2013 at 12:01 pm

    Like you I am not a major products girl. But I use what i like and my favorite is Olay complete face moisturizer. it’s light and has SPF. Ive been using it for years.

  31. Vicki L. on July 16, 2013 at 12:01 pm

    My Olay moisturizer is probably my favorite. My skincare routine is extremely simple, and when I was taking some acne meds that dried me out, the moisturizer helped rehydrate me a bunch and kept me feeling normal.

  32. Katrina on July 16, 2013 at 12:01 pm

    I would have to say aquage uplifting form…it gives a nice body and texture to my hair without feeling crunchy or icky. I also can’t leave the house without hair spray!

  33. Maggie on July 16, 2013 at 12:01 pm

    Weleda Everon Lip Balm.

    I put it on at night before I go to sleep, and it makes my lips feel so much better all the time. 🙂

  34. Melissa A on July 16, 2013 at 12:01 pm

    YES To Carrots lip butter (carrot scented)!

  35. Maya on July 16, 2013 at 12:02 pm

    I love neutrogena healthy skin moisturizer (with spf) and tea tree oil for breakouts!

  36. Krista on July 16, 2013 at 12:02 pm

    MyChelle Eye Cream…best eye cream I’ve found for a reasonable price. .5 oz lasted me a year too so it’s worth it!

  37. Lauren Z on July 16, 2013 at 12:02 pm

    I love Moroccan Oil as well, and their shampoo/conditioner!

  38. Sarah BETH on July 16, 2013 at 12:02 pm

    I have to use good hair products…my naturally curly mob of hair sucks up anything and everything I put on it. Coconut oils and argan hair oils are the best 🙂

  39. Nicole on July 16, 2013 at 12:02 pm

    Mineral powder sunscreen. It’s so easy to reapply throughout the day.

  40. anna on July 16, 2013 at 12:02 pm

    I love my coconut oil and use it on everything! I don’t have a skin care routine either, but since becoming pregnant, I’ve noticed a change in my skin (not for the better, unfortunately). I would love to try this product!

  41. caroline on July 16, 2013 at 12:02 pm

    I love all beauty products! 🙂 But my all time favorite is Origins “no puffery” eye mask. Great for early mornings or long nights with a baby!

  42. Holly Hickman on July 16, 2013 at 12:02 pm

    I love my Epsom salt scrubs with essential oils, they make my skin and body feel much better!

  43. Ashley @ My Food N Fitness Diaries on July 16, 2013 at 12:02 pm

    I love Aveeno face care products!

  44. Natalia on July 16, 2013 at 12:03 pm

    Argan oil!! <3

  45. Greta on July 16, 2013 at 12:03 pm

    I love Moroccan oil as well, but I would have to go with coconut oil! I have been trying to use other moisturizers, but can’t keep myself away from raiding the kitchen for the coconut oil. Nothing else gives me that relaxed nourished and hydrated skin feel. I used to use proactive religiously when I was younger and loved it, so I would love to try some of their other products.

  46. Sarah on July 16, 2013 at 12:03 pm

    I am not really into a lot of products either, but I love a good tinted moisturizer!

  47. Shelly on July 16, 2013 at 12:03 pm

    Definitely Ocean Salt from Lush!

  48. jillian on July 16, 2013 at 12:03 pm

    Ahh, this is tough… I am a products girl — and although I don’t wear a lot of make up, i love face stuff! I love ole henriksen products — especially the night gel!

  49. Charlotte on July 16, 2013 at 12:03 pm

    I love simple oil of olay face moisturizer but would love to try these products!

  50. Elise on July 16, 2013 at 12:03 pm

    I love plain old Aveeno Positively Radiant daily moisturizer. I love that it’s light on my skin!
