AMERICAN BEAUTY
Scrub in with aerie's new skincare line.
A slight overshare: Today, my deodorant is from aerie by American Eagle. I got it yesterday and was so curious (deodorant? From the place I buy thermals?), I left it in my bathroom this morning.
The verdict: It's lemony. Which isn't bad if you hate waking up and need something - coffee, Zoloft, a zingy fresh smell - to snap you into your day. A day that, for me, included a photo shoot downtown, a Razorlight interview uptown, a bombshell discussion with my boyfriend, and a frenzied search for afternoon chocolate. I'm still not sweating, by the way.
American Eagle also makes a new body wash (smells like lemons, too) and a firming lotion. They're good - fresh feeling, easy on the skin - but I think the deodorant is my favorite.
After the thermals, I mean.
