Yes To Grapefruit Daily Facial Scrub

Yes To Grapefruit Daily Facial Scrub ($9.99; Press Sample) is a paraben-fee, gentle, brightening exfoliator. The fresh cirtusy scent is perfect for a lazy morning or even at the end of a long day. It is formulated with Lemon Balm, that helps calm, repair and enhance skin's luminosity.





The scrub has very small granules and a gritty, but runny consistency It foams up quite a bit and isn't too harsh even on my very sensitive skin. I absolutely love the smell - it is fresh, not too overpowering and doesn't linger once washed away. I keep this for use about 3-4 times a week, mostly at night, after I've got all my makeup off with a cleansing balm or oil. It washes away whatever is left behind, leaves absolutely no residue and takes care of exfoliating skin pretty well. I don't think its a very harsh exfoliant, but I definitely would recommend a good moisturizer afterwards. It leaves me feeling fresh, very clean and super bright. If you have dry, dull skin, this one adds a nice glow without stripping skin too much. I also had a couple of trouble spots on my chin and this has helped calm those down to a nice extent.

Overall, I love it - its great for summer, but can be a tad drying in the winter - nothing a good moisturizer can't fix. Although marketed as a Daily Facial Scrub, I would recommend using it only about 3-4 times per week. If your skin seems a little dull and dry, you'll love the quick radiance boost this scrub delivers.

Atopalm Moisturizing Cleansing Wipes

Atopalm is a brand new to me - it focuses on products for dry, sensitive skin. Their products are formulated without harsh dyes and irritants and help with calming and providing relief for dry/sensitive skin.







The Moisturizing Cleansing Wipes ($12.99; Press Samples) are enriched with Vitamin E, Olive and Grapeseed oils to cleanse and soothe skin. Each pack comes with 25 wipes, each one generously sized for face and neck. These aren't terribly saturated, but they do the job effectively and leave behind no sticky residue. There's not much of a scent - just a mild smell that fades pretty quickly. Since these are formulated for sensitive skin, there's absolutely no stinging or burning, even when used around the eyes. They tend to struggle a little with waterproof eye makeup, but everything else comes off clean without much effort. I always tend rinse my face after I use face wipes, but these don't leave a residue, so even if you don't rinse, you won't end up looking like an oil slick. Overall, if you like a lot of fragrance in your wipes or almost, always wear waterproof makeup, you might find the Atopalm wipes a little too mild for your liking. But, if you have sensitive skin, definitely check these out out - they are pretty amazing, cause no redness or irritation and are great to have in your makeup bag for summer!
