Sofia Andres embraces Aveeno’s Calm + Restore line: A journey of self-Care and skincare
Actress, social media personality, and fashion enthusiast Sofia Andres, actress and mother, took center stage at the recent Aveeno Calm + Restore launch, sharing her insights on skincare, self-care, and newfound partnership with the brand. Sofia’s genuine enthusiasm was palpable as she recounted her initial reaction to being chosen as Aveeno’s new face.
“First, I was shocked, but kilig at the same time because it’s really a trusted brand,” she shared, her eyes sparkling. “I’ve been using their products; I use their Skin Relief lotion, and my daughter also uses their lotion for kids. So when I heard they were launching a skincare line, I was thrilled to share it with everyone.” Sofia’s connection to Aveeno is personal, rooted in her trust in the brand.
Sofia is particularly passionate about the gentle yet effective nature of Aveeno’s products. “They are gentle, and yet they are incredibly effective,” she emphasized. “What I love about Aveeno is that they look for real results without the harsh chemicals. That’s something I’m really, really proud of.” This commitment to natural ingredients resonates with Sofia’s own approach to skincare.
Her go-to product? Moisturizer. “It really hydrates your skin,” she explained. “You wake up the next day, and you’re like, ‘Oh, I don’t have to worry about anything!’ because your skin texture is good, you look good, and it doesn’t have to be complicated.” For Sofia, skincare is about achieving healthy, glowing skin without a fuss.
From the Calm + Restore line, the Night Repair cream has captured Sofia’s heart. “That’s their real deal,” she exclaimed. “I soak it up with the night cream. It doesn’t matter if it gets sticky—this one is fast-absorbing. So you don’t have to worry about the stickiness.” Sofia’s excitement about the product was infectious, highlighting its effectiveness and ease of use.
Beyond skincare, Sofia is keen on passing on healthy habits to her daughter. “I’m starting her young with moisturizer, lotion, and sunblock. Do not forget the sunblock!” she emphasized. Sofia understands the importance of early skincare education and protection.
For Sofia, Aveeno fits seamlessly into her busy lifestyle. “They fit perfectly because they’re gentle, hypoallergenic, easy to use, and they last me 1-4 hours. You don’t have to reapply,” she explained. As a mother and actress, Sofia appreciates low-maintenance yet effective skincare.
Asked what other self-love activities she does for herself aside from diligent skincare, the actress shared, “Aside from doing that, I go to the derma (dermatologist), I work out, sauna, to release the toxins. I’m really all for that. I’m really passionate about taking care of myself. And I don’t care if they call me maarte or something.Self-awareness.” She also jokingly added with a bit of exaggeration, “We’re giving very mindful!”
The Calm + Restore Launch
The skincare world buzzed with excitement last week as Aveeno launched its latest innovation, the Calm + Restore Facial Care line. Held at the Khozy Lounge in Makati, followed by a lively gathering at Papillon, the event showcased Aveeno’s dedication to catering to sensitive skin needs. The introduction of Sofia Andres as the brand’s new ambassador added a touch of star power, marking a significant step forward for both the product line and Aveeno itself.
Designed specifically for sensitive skin, the Calm + Restore line maximizes the power of prebiotic oat and calming feverfew. This potent combination promises to instantly soothe and aid in restoring the skin’s protective barrier. The launch put the spotlight on key products like the Oat Gel Moisturizer, Nourishing Daily Moisturizer with SPF 30, Re-Hydrating Night Cream, and Triple Oat Serum, allowing guests to experience their effects firsthand.
Attendees were presented with the line’s immediate calming effect and its ability to deeply hydrate the skin. This positive feedback highlights Aveeno’s commitment to providing truly effective skincare solutions.
Sofia Andres was a central figure at the event. Her presence added a personal and relatable touch. “I’m so happy to be part of Aveeno’s journey with the Calm + Restore line,” Sofia shared. “These products have truly made a difference in my skincare routine, and I can’t wait to help others experience their benefits.” Sofia’s involvement not only enhanced the launch but also provided a fresh and authentic perspective on Aveeno’s mission to support those with sensitive skin.
The impressive results speak for themselves. The event shared that a remarkable 92% of users felt their skin was soothed, and 100% experienced comfort that lasted all day. Dr. Mabelle Colayco, a board-certified dermatologist, offered valuable insights into caring for sensitive skin, emphasizing the vital role of rebuilding the skin’s barrier. She highlighted how ingredients like prebiotic oat and feverfew contribute to calming and protecting sensitive skin.
Hugo Kerriou, a crucial member of Aveeno’s research and development team, further elaborated on the science behind these ingredients. Hugo explained that Aveeno has relied on oat for over 70 years due to its remarkable hydrating, barrier-supporting, and microbiome-balancing abilities. He also emphasized the valuable addition of feverfew, known for its soothing and antioxidant properties that shield the skin from environmental stresses.
The launch went beyond a mere product reveal—it was a true celebration of Aveeno’s commitment to skincare. At Khozy Lounge, guests enjoyed yoga sessions, pampering facial massages, and had the opportunity to discover the Calm + Restore line.
The Aveeno Calm + Restore collection is now available at Watsons, Lazada, Shopee, and TikTok Shop. For those in search of gentle yet effective solutions for sensitive skin, this line promises to be a valuable addition to any skincare regimen.
