Hot Drugstore Find of the Week: Dove Go Sleeveless Deodorant

Hello Divas!

I hope life is treating you well!

I must admit I am a Dove girl.  As I have previously discussed on this blog, I only use Dove for Sensitive Skin bar soap on my skin.  Why?  My skin is super sensitive and Dove for Sensitive Skin is the only soap that will not irritate my skin or cause breakouts.  Another Dove product I love is Dove solid powder fresh deodorant.  I buy it in bulk and I have been using it for the past 10 years...or so.  I rarely try other deodorants, but if I do, I always come back to my staple Dove brand.  So when I was given the opportunity to try the new Dove Go Sleeveless solid deodorant, I eagerly agreed.  Dove's new Go Sleeveless deodorant claims to make your underarms more softer and smoother in just 5 days.  

I did like the deodorant.  It has a very silky texture and does make your underarms feel soft.  I can't necessarily say it made my underarms smoother, but I did like the feel of the deodorant under my arm.  It definitely has a creamier texture than my staple Dove deodorant.  More importantly, it kept me dry and odor free all day.  So that is always a winner for me because I do sweat a lot.  I didn't particularly like the scent.  I tried the Pear Finish scent, which is a more floral scent.  I prefer a powder fresh scent.  The great thing about this deodorant is that it contains moisturizing Vitamin E and F.  Overall I did like it, however I would like to try the Nourished Beauty scent.   


Dove is also having a very cool contest to kick off the debut of their Go Sleeveless deodorant.  Dove has partnered with Jessica Szohr, star of Gossip Girl,  to invite women all over the world to design their own sleeveless top with the go sleeveless Fashion Challenge app on Dove’s Facebook page here, where they can also view the sleeveless top gallery and vote on their favorite designs.  By submitting a unique design, each participant will automatically be entered for a chance to win a New York City shopping trip with Jessica Szohr worth $5,000.  Wowza!


Dove's Go Sleeveless deodorant retails for about $5 and can be purchased at CVS.

Hot Drugstore Find of the Week: Dove Sensitive Skin Nourishing Body Wash

Hello Divas!

I hope your Wednesday is too awesome for words!

Dove has just released a new sensitive skin moisturizing body wash that is simply the bomb! Why? For the past 15 years, I have only used Dove soap for sensitive skin. It is the only bar soap that will not break me out or dry out my skin. See I have super hyper sensitive skin. If I wash my body with the wrong product, I break out in the worse way. Ugh! Although I absolutely love body washes, I have to be very careful using them. If I notice one bump, blemish, or dryness within a few days of use, I have to stop using it! So when I discovered Dove was releasing a body wash specially formulated for sensitive skin, just like their awesome soap, I was elated!

This body wash, like the soap, is hypo-allergenic, soap free, and unscented. However, I found that there is a scent but it is very mild and pleasant. It also contains NutriumMoisture™ which is Dove's new patented technology that uses 100% natural moisturizers that nourish the skin well below the surface. Genius! Divas this body wash lathers like a dream! Plus it is so moisturizing. After use, your body feels like you have slathered it in lotion! No kidding. But the best thing about this body wash is that I can use it without worrying about whether my skin will have a negative reaction. Aaaah! Now that is what you call piece of mine.

Dove Sesitive Skin Nourishing Body Wash retails for $8.99 and you can purchase it at any CVS.

A Quick Fix

Hello Divas!

In my travel tips post, I briefly mentioned how much I love Dove Facial Cleansing Cloths. They clean very well but they also leave your face feeling silky smooth. I have tried other facial cleansing cloths and they either irritated my skin or left it very very dry.

Another reason why I love these facial cleansing cloths so much is that they are a quick fix. They are great for those nights you are just too tired to use your regular facial routine. (this is so me with kids) These cloths are also handy if you are in a rush in the mornings and you don't have time to whip out the cleanser, toner, and moisturizer (however, I always recommend wearing moisturizer). And if you want to freshen up while out or traveling, these cloths are the answer. In addition, they are a great make-up remover! I just love them! Dove Facial Cleansing Cloths retail for $5.99 for a box of 30.
