29 Oct Review: St. Ives Fresh Skin/Blemish Control Apricot, Blemish Control Green Tea Acne Scrub: November 1st National ScrubOff Your Halloween Makeup Day
Last week’s St. Ives Halloween ScrubOff event at the McKittrick Hotel was every ghoul’s
dream.
From the dark, spooky and screechy elevator ride (loved it!) to the smoky venue, guests had a choice of fun activities to partake in: Halloween Face Painting (I got a cheetah print), Tarot Card Reading with Madame Annabella (which had a very long line), Pumpkin Painting, Wonderful Wordsmiths creating Haiku’s (my word was Miracle, look at my card), candied apples and the signature drink of the evening, Naughty Scrubber — full of fresh citrus and a dash of bay leaves, not to mention an amazing band… It was the best Halloween pre-party ever!
Check out Evelyn’s pumpkin. It’s got CURLS!
Just some of the Halloween looks created at the event
Now, with the pounds of costume makeup we use on Halloween, we all need to SCRUB OFF in order to maintain healthy skin. That’s why St. Ives has declared November 1st ScrubOff Day!
I’ve used their Fresh Skin Apricot Scrubber since I was 16-years-old (if not longer), and now, at age 36, my skin thanks me! 100% natural exfoliants remove dead skin and unclog pores to show more radiant skin. The three St. Ives scrubbers headlined were:
• Fresh Skin Apricot Scrub – helps to invigorate dull skin
• Blemish Control Apricot Scrub – fights unwanted blemishes
• Blemish Control Green Team Scrub – helps address unwanted blemishes
Also in my Heavy Horror Haul were 3 St. Ives products I have yet to try: St. Ives Fresh Hydration Lotion, a continuous spray lotion in 3 dual scents: Citrus/Vitamin C, Coconut Milk/Orchid Extract and Oatmeal/Shea Butter. My goodie bag also included items to help me go from Naughty to Natural (wink, wink!)
It’s the little things that make me smile, and I truly thank St. Ives for their knotted hair ties (to tie my hair up prior to scrubbing my face — A BEAUTY MUST) and black #ScrubOff face towels.
I cringe every time I remove Halloween makeup – in turn destroying my beloved towels. Have a safe and Happy Halloween! Happy scrubbing!
