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

      Hi, I would love to tell you about Rodan and Fields. If you would like to set up a time to talk my email address can be found on my website. We have four great regimens. Thanks.

  2. Irene on July 16, 2013 at 5:01 pm

    Hmm…I’m not terribly loyal as far as these things go. I’ve been using a loreal shampoo I really like – the sulfate free fortify line is great!

  3. Meghan on July 16, 2013 at 5:04 pm

    I really needed some recommendations so this is great! The only product I am loyal to is Cetaphil body moisturizer. Swear by it for my super sensitive dry skin!

    • Jeni on July 17, 2013 at 2:03 am

      Hi, I would love to tell you about Rodan and Fields Soothe line. It can really help your sensitive skin. They also give a 60 day empty bottle money back guarantee. If you would like to talk my email address can be found on my site. Thanks.

  4. Traci on July 16, 2013 at 5:05 pm

    Mine is simple: Olay moisturizer. I always go back to it and love the smell.

  5. Kathy on July 16, 2013 at 5:07 pm

    I know they are expensive and I find ways around that like buying on monthly payments when they are on special – but I LOVE all Wen hair conditioning cleansers, styling products and the dry oils. They are also cruelty free and I can use the cleansers on my face & body too – shaving with them makes my skin baby-butt soft! My hair is SO much healthier and my highlights stay so vibrant. Love Wen!

  6. Devon on July 16, 2013 at 5:07 pm

    I would looooooove to try this! My skincare routine is even less than yours haha 🙂 For hair I love It’s a Ten

    • Jeni on July 17, 2013 at 2:05 am

  7. Daniela on July 16, 2013 at 5:08 pm

    I’m a big fan of Aveda’s smooth serum for my hair!

  8. Suzanne on July 16, 2013 at 5:08 pm

    Eye creams. I’m obsessed.

    • Jeni on July 17, 2013 at 8:04 pm

      Hi, Rodan and Fields has a great eye cream. It helps with dark circles, wrinkles, and puffiness. If you would like to set up a time for me to tell you about it you can find my email address on my site. Thanks.

  9. Cel on July 16, 2013 at 5:12 pm

    I have always wanted to try this brand! Being a vegan is nice to know they don’t test on animals 🙂 my fav beauty product is vitamin C powder!

    • Jeni on July 17, 2013 at 8:05 pm

      Hi, I would love to tell you about the four different regimens that Rodan and Fields has to offer. If you would like to set up a time to talk you can find my email address on my site. Thanks.

  10. Marissa on July 16, 2013 at 5:14 pm

    I was just looking for some new skincare products! I have become obsessed with Miss Jessie’s Originial Jelly Soft Curls. It puts some bounce in my hair but never makes it crunchy. I hate some crunchy hair.

    • Jeni on July 17, 2013 at 8:09 pm

  11. Maggie on July 16, 2013 at 5:14 pm

    Coconut oil! In my opinion it’s great for everything- it works as a moisturizer, makeup remover, and hair conditioning treatment!

  12. Allison on July 16, 2013 at 5:14 pm

    These products have quite a few chemicals. I actually ordered some a few months back, but returned them due to the warning “do not use if pregnant or nursing”. I would urge everyone to research the ingredients used-just because it isn’t tested on animals doesn’t mean it’s safe!

  13. Lyndsay on July 16, 2013 at 5:15 pm

    My favourite is coconut oil. I use it for everything, makeup remover, moisturizer and a oil for my hair! Can’t live without it!

  14. Erin @ Girl Gone Veggie on July 16, 2013 at 5:18 pm

    My favorite product would be sunscreen!

  15. Danielle on July 16, 2013 at 5:19 pm

    Hi Gina,

    I’ve been following your blog for quite some time and you really inspired me to start my blog at http://www.mylittlepinklife.com. I am a cosmetologist so I found it fitting that I make my first comment on one of your beauty posts! I agree 100% with Lyndsay, coconut oil for everything. I swear by it. I have struggled with many different skin and beauty issues all whille LOVING all things beauty so when I discovered coconut oil it changed my life. I have many other favorite products that I personally like to use as well as recommend but coconut oil is a miracle.

    Thanks again for all of the inspiration and I will be sure to start commenting now that I have taken the initial dive!

    Danielle

  16. Wendy on July 16, 2013 at 5:22 pm

    My favorite product is blush, I feel washed out without it.

  17. Laura on July 16, 2013 at 5:23 pm

    I love my Oil of Olay night face wash. It always leaves my skin feeling so clean and fresh! How often do you use your Moroccan oil? I’ve never tried it, but I have serious frizzies sometimes!

  18. Laura on July 16, 2013 at 5:24 pm

    Randomly, I just got back into using Neutrogena and it’s amazing! Their anti-wrinkle cream is already working wonders on my fine lines. I’d be interested to try this line. Hope you’re having a great trip!!

  19. Margie Visnick on July 16, 2013 at 5:25 pm

    Lotion-gotta have it for my hands!

  20. nicole on July 16, 2013 at 5:26 pm

    I’d have to say I love Arbonne. It’s pricey but I love the night repair cream. Thanks!

  21. Amie on July 16, 2013 at 5:27 pm

    My favorite product is tea tree oil to treat breakouts.

  22. Katrina on July 16, 2013 at 5:30 pm

    Obagi skin care – a bit pricey but well worth the money

  23. Trina on July 16, 2013 at 5:31 pm

    My current favorite is an Oil of Olay eye cream (sorry, I can’t remember the exact name). It’s gotten rid of the bags and smoothed out the lines, just as it promised.

  24. Amanda on July 16, 2013 at 5:32 pm

    My favorite is probably my Aveeno Ultra Calming Foaming Cleanser. I used to only rarely use any kind of soap to wash my face, but this one is so gentle and feels so great I use it all the time now!

  25. Amanda on July 16, 2013 at 5:33 pm

    My favorite beauty product would probably be my Clinique Foundation for Acne. Not sure what the exact name of it is but is by my far my favorite foundation ever! I also love proactive and Redkin All Soft conditioner because it is sooo good for dry hair.

  26. Jill on July 16, 2013 at 5:37 pm

    My favorite beauty product is definitely Neutrogena Healthy Skin facial moisturizer. It quenches my parched skin every morning and it is light enough to use during the summer and thick enough in the winter. Definitely the best moisturizer I’ve encountered so far and I loooove products!

  27. Meggan on July 16, 2013 at 5:37 pm

    My go-to makeup remover is the Neutrogena Face wipes. They are quick, mess-free, and a life saver!

  28. Lindsey on July 16, 2013 at 5:38 pm

    My fav is Skinceuticals CE Ferulic. It’s spendy but totally made a difference in my skin. Age spots disappeared and the tone of my skin was so much brighter!

  29. Ashleigh on July 16, 2013 at 5:39 pm

    Aveeno Daily Moisturizer! It’s the best!

  30. Lisa Kajihara on July 16, 2013 at 5:42 pm

    I would love the morrocan oil for my hair too! This would probably force me to be consistent with my skin care too.

  31. britt on July 16, 2013 at 5:42 pm

    i love a perfect world cleanser by origins and morrocan oil. the best!!

  32. Dee on July 16, 2013 at 5:44 pm

    My favorite product is my Clarisonic – I try other cleansers & serums, but I’ve been using the Clarisonic for a few years now and love it!

  33. Amanda on July 16, 2013 at 5:44 pm

    Olay! My grandma and mom used it so I’m continuing the skincare legacy!

  34. Kelsey on July 16, 2013 at 5:45 pm

    My favorite would be Redken Ringlet 007- it keeps my wavy hair from getting too wild and out of control.

  35. Kim N. on July 16, 2013 at 5:48 pm

    Mine would be the ginger shampoo from The Body Shop.

  36. Ann on July 16, 2013 at 5:49 pm

    I love to use Dr. Bronner’s Tea Tree Facial cleanser! It prevents break-outs and works great on my clarisonic too!

  37. Niki T. on July 16, 2013 at 5:52 pm

    My favorite would have to be Sebamed moisturizing cream. My skin has been clear ever since I started using it a year ago.

  38. Kennis Brady on July 16, 2013 at 5:53 pm

    My favorite has to be my Osmosis PUR Shade Face Sunscreen. It smells like coconut, never makes me breakout, and stays put through long sweaty sunny days!

  39. Hillary on July 16, 2013 at 5:55 pm

    I cannot live without my Burt’s Bees lip balm!

  40. Colleen Boudreau on July 16, 2013 at 5:57 pm

    Argan oil.

  41. Jennie on July 16, 2013 at 5:58 pm

    I love Burt’s bees lip balm. Peppermint, Simple and perfect:)

  42. Ashley on July 16, 2013 at 5:59 pm

    Live coconut oil!!

  43. Suzanne on July 16, 2013 at 5:59 pm

    I love vitamin E oil!

  44. Jackie W on July 16, 2013 at 6:00 pm

    I don’t think it’s classified as “product” but I LOVE my Clarisonic!

  45. Sam on July 16, 2013 at 6:08 pm

    If I had to choose, I’d say argan oil! It’s amazing on skin, hair, lips…the whole shebang.

  46. Tracy on July 16, 2013 at 6:16 pm

    I love Pur Minerals mineral makeup! So light but makes my skin look perfect!

  47. Emily Babb on July 16, 2013 at 6:20 pm

    I am really loving root boosting powder right now!

  48. Jodie on July 16, 2013 at 6:21 pm

    Definitely my Clarisonic!!! Best investment ever. Other than that, I love Boing curling creme for my crazy mane 🙂 Happy holidaying!

  49. Leah on July 16, 2013 at 6:24 pm

    I personally love anything from Orgins… would love to win this and it speaks volumes that you were not presented with this opportunity from the company! Speaks highly of their products.

  50. Mary Kate on July 16, 2013 at 6:25 pm

    I love this giveaway– thanks! My favorite skin care product is Eucerin Sensitive Skin Everyday Protection lotion with SPF 30! 🙂
