Okay so start with I should probably write about my skin type.
I have dry sensitive skin on my face. With certain products my face will burn and it can be that bad that my skin will peel off and I wont be able to put any product on my face at all.
Aveeno is a cream designed to hydrate and to soothe the skin. It is mainly used for dry skin and Eczema prone skin. It is a product that is suitable for all skin types.
When I don't use any product on my face my skin will go all tight and sore, it will also begin to crack and then the skin (mainly on my cheeks) will start to peel off. It's painful and it hurts to even wash with water.
With other creams it wouldn't have any effect with my skin it would just layer over it and I would end up having to put the cream on my face and scratch my the dead cracked skin off. This was painful and made my cheeks bright red but I had to do it with every product I used.
When I used Aveeno for the first time I was skeptical as I had tried so many products that claim they are good for sensitive dry skin.
But...
When I first put the cream on it sunk straight into my skin and my skin immediately felt soft and smooth. Well compared to how it was before after I put cream on. In the morning after I had cleansed my face I used the cream again and I noticed a massive difference, my skin wasn't as flaky and the redness had gone down. My skin wasn't too sore to touch and to top it all of the cream didn't burn as I put it on. YAY!
After using the cream for two weeks my skin was pretty much perfect and just how I wanted it to be. It wasn't sore, my skin was extremely soft and I genuinely felt so much better using it.
I have currently been using Aveeno cream for about 2 years now and I can honestly say I don't even feel any need to try any other type of creams, I don't need to add alot of products to my face to feel like my skin is getting everything it needs. My makeup applies alot smoother and easier now my dry skin has cleared up.
Before when I wore foundation my I was so conscious that all you could see was my dry skin underneath it looked like scales and ew it was horrible I hated it but now I am so much happier and I can even leave my house without any foundation or concealer on because I know that my skin actually looks nice now.
Aveeno definitely gets a massive tick in my books!
