Mandy Moore Talks Beauty, Fitness & Guilty Pleasures

I think Mandy Moore’s a natural beauty.  Her dark hair compliments her flawless complexion and really makes her hazel eyes pop.  It’s no wonder that the starlette is a Proactiv spokesperson.  I had the opportunity to talk to her about her fave beauty products and more.

I Broke Out! Adult Acne? Hell No!

Confession – and it’s embarrassing to admit, but I’m 28 and keep breaking out! While this isn’t a normal thing for me (thank God), pimples were occupying a portion of my face for about the past three weeks.  I’ve been feeling like an adult with acne. I blamed it on the change in seasons, Indian Summer, you know… anything I could. Let’s just say a Proactiv mailing I received earlier this week couldn’t have come at a better time.

My Proactiv Attempt to Mix Business with Pleasure in New Orleans

Skincare, grits and ghost tours… oh my!  This past weekend I had the pleasure of joining Proactiv on a press trip to New Orleans for the American Academy of Dermatology Conference with some of my favorite beauty bloggers.  While our trip revolved around clear skin, you’d be a fool to think we didn’t have a few hurricanes!  This group of girls knows how to party.

Friday night we attended a cocktail party with the two dermatologists who created Proactiv, Dr. Katy Rodan and Dr. Kathy Fields.  Then Saturday we explored everything the AAD conference had to offer from a pretty overwhelming exhibit floor to symposiums revolving around breakthroughs in skincare and very attractive dermatologists!  I tried to wrap

Proactiv Donates to My Fave Charity

I had the wonderful opportunity to partner with Proactiv for their 12 days of Christmas campaign (yes, I know, we’re sooo over Christmas right now but bear with me) and by doing so I was able to donate $200 to my favorite charity  – Women In Need.

Check out the video below to learn more about the campaign, charity and of course, a giveaway!

New Proactiv Campaign & Giveaway

I’ve always been fortunate enough to never had have to use Proactiv for acne, but began using some parts of the line a few weeks ago because my roommate (who has a gorgeous complexion) raves about it.  Now, I can honestly say I like the Refining Mask and Oil Free Moisturizer with SPF 15.  I recently learned that the line goes way beyond the three step system.

I’m so used to seeing the commercials with Diddy, Jessica Simpson, Avril Lavigne, and now Katy Perry telling everyone to purchase the products that I never really payed attention.  One celebrity endorsement after another I began to get jaded.  Do I really think Diddy had acne and used a three-step-system?  Come on.

Their new campaign caught my eye – Be proactiv.  It showcases their A-list spokespeople in a new way.  Instead of just endorsing the product, they encourage people to “Be Proactiv,” which I feel is a much stronger, positive idea.
