The good people at Influenster were kind enough to send me a pack of the Neutrogena Naturals purifying makeup remover cleansing towelettes to try. I’ve been using them for a few days now and thought I’d share with you what I think. I also wanted to fill you in on Neutrogena’s partnership with The Nature Conservancy.

About the wipes:

I’ve used a few different brands of wipes and honestly, I was expecting more of the same. More drying out my face. More feeling the need to rinse the residue off after I used them.

I was pleasantly surprised with these wipes though.

My face felt soft and I didn’t have to slather on the moisturizer after I used them. There was no nasty residue to rinse off, only clean, clear skin.

These wipes did an amazing job of getting all the make-up, dirt and grime (hey, I’m a runner, I get sweaty) off my face and left nothing but clean skin behind. Those little towelettes got my face clean without leaving me feeling like I’ve been sandblasted, they’re so soft.

The Neutrogena Naturals wipes smell pretty good too, with a fresh, clean fragrance.

The Wipe for Water Movement:

Since April is Earth Month, Neutrogena is partnering with The Nature Conservancy to save some serious water.

When you wash your face in the sink you could be using as many as five gallons of water a day.

I’ll let Kristen Bell explain it all to you.

So I challenge you to pick up a package of the Neutrogena Naturals purifying makeup remover cleansing towelettes and save some water. Make sure you go to Wipe for Water and make a pledge, for each pledge they receive they will donate $1 to The Nature Conservancy (up to 50K).

Once you’ve tried the wipes, please let me know what you think, I’d love to know if you like them as much as I do.

I know there are some people out there who hate meatloaf but I am not one of them. In fact I could eat meatloaf weekly, especially if we’re making this meatloaf.

This recipe originally came from a Southern Living cookbook but over the years I’ve bent it and tweeted it and made it something completely new. When I started to use the Five Star ground beef it became something even better than I could have imagined.

What you will need:

Directions:

I love this recipe because it’s quick, easy and tastes great. I usually serve this with meatloaf with roasted sweet potatoes and a green veggie. The kids often complain when I make meatloaf but somehow there are never any leftovers, so clearly they like it.

Give it a try and let me know what you think.

Disclaimer: I was compensated with free food from Five Star Home Foods in exchange for this and other related posts. For every person who signs up for Five Star’s service through Mommyland I will be given $100. All the money I receive from this partnership will be donated to The Wee One Foundation to help families just like mine when they need it due to medical reasons. Of course ALL you will see here is MY opinion.
