With all the hype and extra shopping that goes along with back to school, a lady can’t help but want to treat herself to something new too! So last week, I treated myself to some beauty products from Neutrogena. Neutrogena and Hayden Pantierre have teamed up to bring us tips and tutorials on how to achieve a beautiful “all day look.” See Hayden talk about her “Day Off Look” in this video:
And if you need a little more beauty inspiration for you #AllDayLook, Target and Neutrogena have teamed up to bring a Target Beauty Concierge event at select Target stores around the country this month! Event begins August 24th. Limited quantities available. Check with your local Target store for Beauty Concierge day and times.

After checking out the Neutrogena Nashville, I got inspired to try some of the featured products. I’ve used Neutrogena’s skincare products and hair products before, but I’ve never tried their makeup, so I decided to have a Beauty Adventure!
I picked up the Healthy Skin Liquid Makeup Broad Spectrum SPF 20 in Classic Ivory, Shine Control Powder, and the Nourishing Eyeliner in Spiced Chocolate, and I’m very happy with these purchases.
In the above photo, I’m wearing just the Healthy Skin Liquid Makeup. Of all types of makeup, foundations are definitely something I am most particular about. I’ve tried many, but and I really LOVE this one. Here’s why:
It only takes a small amount of product to cover the face. It smooths on very easily, and the shade really blended well on my skin. I also love the texture of the makeup. It has a very light and sheer feel to it. It doesn’t make you feel greasy or sticky, and it doesn’t feel like you are wearing a mask. It just has a very natural feel and look to it. And it didn’t make my skin look shiny or dry it out either!
The product is also odorless. Other makeups I’ve tried have had fragrances or even a medicine scent to them, and I was happy this did not have that. The makeup also help up well throughout the day. I am definitely excited that I tried this out, and I definitely plan to buy it again in the future.
And here is my “full makeup picture.” I use powder for two reasons: to “help” my make hold up longer and to prevent my skin from being shiny (especially for hot, humid days.) I think by using the Netrogena Healthy Skin Liquid Makeup, I may find that I need the powder less, but I think it still helps to have the Shine Control Powder.
This powder goes on sheer, and it is a really a good finishing powder. It is definitely a good product to have on hand especially if you have oily skin or live in a place where you are prone to get a shiny face throughout the day.
I was also pleased with the Nourishing Eyeliner. I purchased the Spiced Chocolate shade, because I have brown hair, and my eye shadow colors are predominantly silver, gold, and various shades of ivory and tan, so I think I think the chocolate goes well with those. The eyeliner goes on very easily, and it also held up pretty well throughout the day. No raccoon eyes here!
I also picked up Neautrogena Triple Moisture Shampoo & Conditioner. I’ve tried some of Neutrogena’s hair products in the past but this is my first time to try this line. This line is especially good to moisturize dry and processed hair, and it is good for removing impurities. And since I’m in great need of a haircut, and it often looks dried out, I thought this hair care line would be great for me.
I used the shampoo and the conditioner and then I took some photos of my hair dried out straight and not styled and then I took a picture of my hair curled.
I have naturally curly hair that is nearly impossible to straighten (and have it stay straight) I took the above picture immediately after drying. The shampoo made my hair feel clean, softer, and healthy. And I was very happy that the conditioner helped to remove my tangles without leaving my hair feeling oily or weighted down.
And the products seem to help prevent frizzies as well! Yay!
Then I styled my hair in to some curls. Even though my hair is naturally curly, my mom used to roll my hair for church and special events, so sometimes I still like to have the “homemade curls.” The above picture was taken after shampooing and conditioning. I used the blow dryer and rollers, but I used no other chemicals or styling products. My curls came out looking carefully sculpted, and happily there is no frizz!

Hi Jerri! You have such a cute blog here. I found you because I’m also working on my #AllDayLook with Target and Neutrogena 🙂 I wanted to try the Neutrogena hair care line, but I couldn’t find it in my local Target 🙁 It looks like you had a good run with the products, though! Your curls came out looking great, you look like a little doll (such beautiful eyes!) 🙂 One tip though, to make your curls look more modern you can always run your fingers through them, or even a comb. yes, this will break up the curl, but you will get va-va-boom volume! I have a little tutorial here: http://clothesandfashion.net/curls-with-pantene-wantthathair-walmart-giveaway/
Let me know how that works out! 🙂

Thanks for your honest review of the makeup and hair products. I am always looking for makeup that has SPF as I live in a warmer climate. I don’t wear too much foundation in the summer though as it just melts off my face if I am outside for 10 minutes! I have not used many Neutrogena products but I think my mom does. I will have to give them a try.
I love Neutrogena products. I have overlooked their products in the past, but now they are my go to brand.
I have to admit that I rarely wear ANY makeup these days. I really should at least put on a sunscreen base or something. Thanks for sharing some of the Neutrogena products.
I like Neutrogena products for the face. They are hypoallergenic and really make my face look so natural. I have never used their shampoo though and would like to use it. It made your hair look very nice!
Neutrogena makes great skin care products. I haven’t tried their cosmetics.
I have never tried Neutrogena products before and would love too. Your make up and hair look fantastic. Your make up really looks natural and I like that. That’s how I would wear it.
I am always looking for frizz taming products, Neutrogena looks excellent!
I’ve used lots of Neutrogena skin care products and loved them, but I’ve never tried their makeup. Next time I need to pick up some new makeup I’ll keep this info in mind!
I didn’t even know Neutrogena had hair care products! I was only aware of their skin care products.
I have used Neutrogena products for years. I need to check out some of their newer products.
I’ve always liked Neautrogena products, but I have never tried the shampoo and conditioner. Now I really want to to give those a try.
I havent tried Neutrogena products but from your review they look like something I need to try
Thanks for the great Neutrogena reviews! 🙂
You look really pretty in your makeup and it looks so natural. I love Neutrogena cosmetics because they are all natural and made without a lot of harsh ingredients. I will have to stop by and get some soon at Target.
I love Neutrogena products. Thank you for the review
