Urban Beach Day with Neutrogena!

Disclaimer: I received a complimentary "Neutrogena Beach & Beauty Party" from Crowdtap. For me and one guest this included:
  • Neutrogena sunscreen sample
  • MoistureShine Lip Soother in shade Glimmer
  • Visibly Even Daily Moisturizer
  • Hydrating Make-Up Remover Cleansing Towelettes
  • Triple Repair Hair Care
  • 1 Neutrogena party item
  • 1 Party insert

Now the review!

Location: Brooklyn Bridge Park, NY
Date 8/10/14

Practicing safe sun with the Neutrogena sunscreen: Over all everyone was surprised at how easy it was to apply and the light texture.

Hydrating Make-Up Remover Cleansing Towelettes: In the end we just used it to wipe over grimy gross faces - felt great! Even for the guys!

Visibly Even Daily Moisturizer: I used it at home before heading out and it was great! Light, not oily, great smell. I'm not sure how well it reduces blotchiness and dark spots yet - more to update later.

MoistureShine Lip Soother in shade Glimmer: Personally I'm not a huge fan of gloss because of it's texture but I did like the scent lol

Triple Repair Hair Care: Used it at home after but because I didn't really go swimming in salt water didn't see much of a difference.




Packed and ready to go!










Getting ready for BATLLE!





#fierce lmao









Shake Shack burgers after a long active day :D

DO/AC and Me: A Review & Guide of Atlantic City & Tropicana Casino Hotel & Resort

Disclaimer: I received a complimentary "Atlantic City Experience Sampling" from Crowdtap. For me and one guest this included:

    Trip Itinerary
    Special Atlantic City Welcome Prize
    Free One Night's Stay in an AC Casino
    Cocktail Hour
    AC SWAG Bag which You'll Receive Upon Arrival

That being said, on to the review!

Transportation: The transportation to and from Atlantic City was NOT included, so I had to find my own way to get there. After much researching we settled on Academy Bus, the round trip was $38 and included a $25 voucher for free slot play courtesy of the Casino we were staying at which was Tropicana. You can buy bus tickets online here: http://www.academybus.com/Casinos/Casinos.aspx

The employees working here are down right rude but they get you from point A to point B sufficiently enough. In the future if had the option of choosing a different bus company with a better deal, I totally would.

Hotel: Tropicana Casino Resort - Atlantic City



We got the king sized bed suite. Smelled a bit funky but was overall roomy and clean. Bathroom was well stocked with towels for our one night stay. The one MAJOR CON I had with this room was the AC outlets, NONE were easily accessible, the one that I could find was hidden behind the curtain on the right side. My friend was able to find one hidden behind the night stand after she pulled it out a bit.

WI-FI and cell service was also pretty none existent in the entire facility except your room. You were not able to get cell service in the lobby and all the restaurants.

Employees were nice but a lot of them lacked training. I had an issue redeeming my $10 slot free play, turned out that I had to manually go to the COMP Machines and load that onto my card myself AFTER the employee at the lobby loaded it on for me. That's right, she added it onto my card and I still needed to go and further activate the $10 promo on another machine. After asking 5 people, one person finally knew enough to tell me what to do.

Lobby employees work hard but are sadly understaffed, each time I needed to speak to one the wait time varied from 15-30 minutes.

Atlantic City: There was plenty to do in the short time we stayed, I wish we had another night.
