I struggle with over-packing. Some reoccurring examples:
• I frequently pack more shoes than days of the trip.
• I often pack things I have NEVER worn, thinking they’d be “perfect” for the occasion.
• I always have more lipsticks than one woman needs in a month, let alone a vacation.

So when I recently packed for a weekend trip to New York, knowing I’d need to save space in my suitcase for purchases, I tried to stick to only necessary items.

Looking at the photo, you might wonder why amongst my shoes, accessories and outfits is there a full size bottle of body wash? Because it’s Aveeno® Daily Moisturizing Body Wash and it IS a necessity.

My skin is dry and a bit on the sensitive side, so I have to be careful what I use. And you never know what you’re going to find in a hotel bathroom. So I decided to play it safe and bring what I use at home. And that’s Daily Moisturizing Body Wash.

Plus, I knew my skin was going to be in for a shock going from the 85-90 degree heat of the desert to the chilly fall temps in NYC. (It was 42 degree on our last day there!) The last thing I wanted was itchy dry skin on vacation. This creamy skin saver was a welcome and soothing addition to my nightly showers.

Aveeno® Daily Moisturizing Body Wash cleans and moisturizes skin, and never leaves it feeling dry or tight. With its star ingredient, ACTIVE NATURALS® Colloidal Oatmeal, it soothes skin with a blend of natural oils and emollients so it always feels soft and nurtured. It’s also soap free, dye free and hypoallergenic.

An added bonus is the light scent. It’s not floral, it’s not quite herbal, the best way I can describe it is light and clean. Just entirely pleasant!

But my favorite thing of all is the way Aveeno® Daily Moisturizing Body Wash feels. The lather produced is so luxurious, like a creamy oil rather than a foamy soap. You can feel it moisturizing your skin, not stripping it. It feels very high-end, not like a wash you paid less than $8 for.

Those leopard pumps may have been a packing fail, but my Aveeno® Daily Moisturizing Body Wash was a total win!

  1. @stef I can’t stand hotel soaps either. I have tried many things in the Aveeno line but, not this soap. I am a big fan of their moisturizers — particularly in the winter when I tend to take more hot baths. Aveeno helps me take good care of my skin on the fly — especially when I am traveling.

  2. Aveeno does make great products for the price.I keep their Oatmeal bath in my cabinet for when my skin gets itchy and red. Heck, my dog has skin allergies and I’ve bathed him in it as well. Great lotions, too.

  3. Ooohhhh!!! This sounds perfect for my miserable skin. So many body washes smell funny or leave my skin dry – Aveeno has super wonderful lotions, why wouldn’t the body wash be amazing. I’m really curious about the scent. You had me there. :)
