{review & giveaway} POND'S Luminous

I've been on the hunt for a new beauty routine since mine is currently nothing, I know, shame on me. I go through phases where I'll actually use products I have, but it never sticks. When PONDs asked me to test out their new Luminous products I didn't hesitate. The complete Luminous Line is available at mass retailers, select drugstores and supermarkets nationwide for $4.99 - $5.79. I got to try out the following products:

Daily Exfoliating Cleanser, Cream Cleanser, Day Lotion with SPF15, and Wet Cleansing Towelettes

All the products have the same slight fragrance, which I enjoyed. It was also smart to have all the same scents because you don't want to use products that smell differently from one another.  They make my skin feel very smooth and clean.  My favorite product is the cleansing towelettes, they will be great for those nights when I am too tired to wash my face.

PONDS is also holding the “POND’S® 30-Day Luminous Photo Challenge,” a 30-day photo sweepstakes featuring daily challenges to inspire women to share photos of their happiest, most radiant moments. Thirty prizes will be awarded so women can live life more luminously. From March 4 through April 2, women can upload pictures to the POND’S® Facebook page or share via Twitter or Instagram by using the hashtag #LuminousEffect.

Molly Sims is supporting this campaign and has some tips for you on how to look and feel luminous. My favorites are:

• Nighttime Ritual: I never go to bed without washing my face. As a busy mom, I go for time savers wherever possible. I like a cleanser that both cleanses and removes makeup in one step. POND’S® Luminous Clean™ Wet Cleansing Towelettes gently draws out trapped impurities and makeup to brighten dull skin. 
• Buff Your Way to Beautiful: For great circulation and even tone skin, I recommend exfoliating your face, body and even your lips. It can leave you looking good and feeling radiant in no time. 
• Find Your Center: Taming stress is important to help you look your luminous best. I use regular breathing exercises to help keep me calm and centered.
• Lighten Up: When posing for pictures, I make a point to smile big. Your face will light up and you will instantly look and feel luminous. 

When I'm feeling down and want to lift my spirits I put on one of my favorite items of clothing to make me feel luminous.  Anything from my Alexander Wang booties to a Marc Jacobs blazer instantly adds a spring to my step. What makes you feel luminous?
