Dove Ultimate Deodorant Review And Giveaway

dove ultimate care deodorants

Summer is coming, which means sleeveless tops and bathing suits are as well. Are you ready for the heat? Are your armpits ready? If not you can get them ready by giving them a “PitiCure”. A PitiCure is to underarms what a manicure is for hands and a pedicure if for feet. The PitiCure is a three step in home process that was developed by Beverly Hills Board Certified Dermatologist and co-author of “The Beauty Prescription” Dr. Debra Luftman to help people cleanse and care for their underarms. You can see the PitiCure process at http://bella.popsugar.tv/Have-You-Tried-Dove-Deodorant-PitiCure-7939330. I’d always thought of underarms as a place I didn’t want to add moisture. I know better after watching the brief video.

I think armpits are gross. I won’t even wear sleeveless tops. There’s something nasty about stubbly, bumpy armpits. When the folks at Dove emailed me about the PitiCure and asking me to try out their new Dove Ultimate Beauty Care Deodorant, I was curious. And a little suspect, that perhaps they’d been spying on me. I accepted the offer to review thinking the best it would do is work and the worst it would do is leave the gross armpits exactly the way they were.

Did you know shaving reduces the top layer of skin by 20 percent, and can result in irritation and skin dryness? I didn’t. The folks at Dove did know this, and kept it in mind when creating Dove Ultimate Beauty Care Deodorant. Dove Ultimate Beauty Care Deodorant contains a tri-moisturizing system that soothes shaving irritation and helps replenish delicate underarm skin. It also alleviates white marks while delivering 24-hour odor and wetness protection. The tri-moisturizing system found in Dove Ultimate anti-perspirant/deodorant consists of the following moisturizers:

• Humectant – works like a magnet to hold in moisture under the skin’s surface, keeping delicate underarm skin conditioned

• Occlusive Layer – forms a layer on the surface of the skin to prevent moisture loss, which can cause dryness

• Nourishing Moisturizer – Contains natural sunflower oil that is known to help boost the skin’s natural moisture barrier to soothe shaving irritation and help deliver soft, smooth underarm skin with Dove 1/4 Translucent Moisturizers™

I received one of each of the scents – Light Radiance and Sheer Silk. I preferred the Sheer Silk fragrance, although the Light Radiance wasn’t bad. I found both to feel very soft and smooth going on. They didn’t feel grainy like some deodorants I’ve tried in the past and my armpits definitely felt softer and smoother. I was very pleased with both deodorants.

WIN IT!

ONE winner will receive a light radiance deodorant and another variety from the collection!

Dove go fresh Presents GOSSIP GIRL: Real NYC Stories Revealed

I love the show Gossip Girl. I always wondered if there were young people with lives really like that. I’ve learned that Dove go fresh (the people that make the body wash, deodorants and mists that smell great) has partnered up with The CW (the people that make Gossip Girl) to create a video series inspired by Gossip Girl.

The series is called “GOSSIP GIRL: Real NYC Stories Revealed”. Jessica Szohr (Vanessa on Gossip Girl) is promoting the series, which coincides with the launch of the newest Dove go fresh fragrance Burst, a combination of juicy nectarine and white ginger. The series focuses on four real young women from Manhattan’s Upper East Side, the same place Gossip Girl is set. The series shows how these women are going after their dreams while juggling other aspects of life such as career, love, finance, family and friends. These four women are sharing their own true stories in the hopes of preserving all young women to follow their dreams.

I’d like to check it out to see if the lives of these girls are anything like the lives of the girls on Gossip Girl. If you’re interested, here’s how to watch. “GOSSIP GIRL: Real NYC Stories Revealed” will introduce each story in a 90-second broadcast TV spot airing nationwide during the last commercial break of Gossip Girl episodes on The CW, beginning April 27 (8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT). Gossip Girl fans will then be able to catch the finale of each girl’s story by visiting www.cwtv.com/dovegofresh on their PC or mobile devices. Additional information will also be available online at both www.cwtv.com/dovegofresh and www.dovegofresh.com, including behind-the-scenes footage of the making of the series, exclusive interviews with Gossip Girl star Jessica Szohr and the Dove real girls, along with Dove go fresh product information.
