Naughty, naughty Neutrogena!
WWD reports that Unilever (specifically Dove skin care) has filed a complaint with the the National Advertising Division of the Council of Better Business Bureaus because they feel that three of the tag lines within Neutrogena ads contain misleading statements. The tag lines are:
"#1 Dermatologist Recommended"
"No wonder dermatologists recommend Neutrogena most"
"One more reason why Neutrogena is recommended most by dermatologists"
Dove believes these ads insinuate that dermatologists recommend the Neutrogena brand overall, not just specific products.

This weekend is
Memorial Day, a day where Americans honor those who have died defending our country. It's also a three-day weekend that many use to take advantage of the approaching hot weather by spending time outside, either having a BBQ or lounging by the pool. So you've got to shield oneself from the elements, especially those harmful UV rays.

I always have to giggle when a product has a name this long. That's a lot of name to live up to. This
Neutrogena MoistureShine Lip Soother Cooling Hydragel ($7) caught my eye because of the pleasant yet not-too-intense pink color.

Welcome back to my series on pretty pastel beauty products. I hope that checking out these flirty finds is getting you excited for Spring. Below are three different pastel blushes that are best worn on the apples of your cheeks and then blended outwards (to your hairline) and upwards (towards the top of your ear).

Yesterday I told you a little bit about some
firming bust creams, and today we're moving up on the body by focusing on creams to firm your face. Firming facial creams can help to minimize the appearance of your pores, and some can topically and temporarily suspend muscle contractions in your face — similar to what Botox does, but without the side effects.
Tracie Martyn Firming Serum ($185) is a favorite among celebrities, so I was really excited when I received a sample to test.

Last week
I told you a bit about the new
Neutrogena Wave power cleanser ($13.99), a handheld vibrating cleanser. The kit comes with 14 single-dose cleansing pads, the Wave unit itself, and a postcard for an
online coupon.
The Wave is designed well; it's easy to grip in hands, even when a little bit of water splashes on it.

Next month marks the launch of the Neutrogena Wave Power-Cleanser and Deep Clean Foaming Pads ($12.99), a massaging, vibrating gadget intended to sweep away layers of dead skin cells.
The idea is to affix a single-use pad to the applicator, turn it on, and let it buff away dullness and potential pore cloggers. The pads are pre-loaded with cleanser to produce a "tingly cool lather."

I know a lot of you love mineral makeup (and if you do, don't forget to
enter this giant Bare Escentuals contest. As for me, I've had some mixed results. Mineral makeup sometimes makes me feel like I'm a little too "done."

We are so excited to bring back
Model of the Week! This time, we take a closer look at American model Yoanna House. Yoanna was born on April 9, 1980 in Jacksonville, Florida.

Last week I
asked you to suggest your favorite cleansing shampoos, and you definitely found some good ones!
Marcella loves Lush's
Big shampoo: "It's by far the best cleansing shampoo for people who use a ton of styling products (like me)!" I agree—this stuff lathers like crazy, smells amazing and leaves hair looking shiny and bouncy.
