I feel better than someone else had the same experience with this product - burning redness. I use Retin-A, which I am sure contributed to that. The Positively Radiant line, however, works well. Aveeno products are usually so great this is worth a try, but use with caution on sensitive skin.

Aveeno Ultra-Calming Daily Moisturizer with Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 15
Not for my sensitive skin
I tried this and the night version, both caused painful stinging and redness that lasted for a day, even after washing it off immediately. I use Retin-A and therefore have very sensitive skin, which I am sure is the problem. The surprising thing is that the Radiant line works great for me. Definitely try if you have sensitive skin, but if you use any retinol products, try on a small area first.

With retin-A and oily skin, most products which have any 'skin enhancing' elements are too harsh. This worked surprisingly well, did not leave my face feeling or looking oily, and my complexion actually did appear smoother. The fact that the SPF 30 comes in a smaller size than the SPF 15 for the same price was disappointing as other lines don't have the price difference for higher SPF. If it weren't for that, this would get a 10.

This is a fantastic brush to keep around for cleaning nails every day. I use it before manicures or pedicures as well, and it cleans well in both instances. At $4, the price is right, too.

These are great for winter pedicures, especially if you live in a cold winter climate. Cutting the toes out of socks doesn't work well because of the frayed edges, which come apart and can mar the polish before it dries. The finished edges of these avoids that.

This is an esceptional cuticle trimmer. The spring load means you only have to worry about controlling the close of the blades, making it easier to handle. Stainless steel is easier to clean and disinfect, and why I use SS as much as possible even though I do my own nails. It is pricey, but with the investment.

I do my own nails on a regular basis, and I couldn't live without this. The four different textures for perfect for each job for which they are intended. The only drawback is that it doesn't seem to last very long and thus needs frequent replacing. It only costs $2, but I would prefer not having to buy a new one every month or two.

This fits the bill perfectly. The square edges can be a little sharp if you're not careful, but then I suppose almost any pedicure tool can be harmful if not used carefully. If you do your own nails, this is a must-have.

Provides a closer shave than the regular Venus handle. I found it left razor burn on the backs of my legs unless I moved it very slowly. Worth a try, especially if you have dark hair prone to easy regrowth visibility.

These worked great and were easy to use. No mess or heating. Definitely use with a numbing gel because waxing yourself is a bit like pulling off a Band-Aid - more difficult to do on yourself than another when it hurts.
