Sponsored Post: Be Visibly Smooth on the Red Carpet

April 7, 2010 3:41 pm · Posted by oldergirlbeauty


You guys, I recently had a chance to host a "Red Carpet Event" sponsored by Dove Visibly Smooth Deodorant. (*And when I say sponsored, I mean they were generous enough to provide a flip camera to record the fun, funds for food, drinks and goodies for a gift bag for the party, jewelry for the guests to help them feel dressed up for the Red Carpet and samples of Dove Visibly Smooth Deodorant to try.)

Unfortunately, my party wasn't able to be scheduled for an Oscars viewing party, but I did have the Red Carpet vibe by showing Meryl Streep's Oscar nominated performance in "Julie and Julia", where she plays Julia Child. (*Did you know that that was her 16th nomination - more than any other actor/actress in the history of the Academy?). I also enjoy the "Julie" (*played by Amy Adams) side of the movie, as I can kind of relate to someone starting their own blog & enjoying when people discover it, too.

But, before we started the movie, we chatted about Dove's Visibly Smooth Deodorant. Have you guys heard about this? They say it "is an anti-perspirant deodorant that works to minimize the visual appearance of underarm hair over time, while providing effective 24-hour odor and wetness protection. Its unique formula contains Pro-Epil Complex and natural extracts, as well as Dove 1/4 translucent moisturizers." This pretty much means that it's got 24hr protection and while its NOT a dipilatory, it will make your underarm hair less noticable *over time* - not instantly. It also smells really nice. We had a chance to try the "Wild Rose" scent, but there is also a "Nature Fresh" scent that I have smelled, too. Since I haven't used it for all that long, I can't say that I have gotten the full benefit of the "over time" visible difference, but I can say that my underarms do feel softer already, so that's definitely something.

You can pick up either one of these scents up at any local mass market drugstore or big box store for around $5, but if you click here right now there is a $2off coupon for you to use. PLUS, very shortly I will be giving away *5* sticks to 5 lucky readers. Can't beat *free* right?

Raise your hand if you're Sure....

Okay, lovelies - it's another TMI time. I'll just put it out there. I have itchy armpits. (What? Don't act like you've never heard anything like that before....). I have been a Secret Deodorant user for years.
I was especially a fan of their Platinum Conditioning Solid in Botanical. Well, it appears they have changed their formula to this Secret Flawless formula. They say "If you like Platinum, you'll love Flawless". Eh, not so much. Ever since I got this "stick", I swear I look like a chimp scratching at my pits. Not so pretty in the office, let me tell you. And since this is the only thing that has changed in my armpit routine (yeah, I guess you could call it that), it *has* to be this.
So, I turn to you lovelies - can you give me some suggestions as to what would be good to try and not have this problem any more? I am not all up in the "gotta be organic" wagon, but I won't rule it out. (In fact, I have heard good things about "Pit Putty" by Bubble and Bee, whose Vanilla Peppermint Salt Scrub sounds almost good enough to freakin' eat, too). Help a girl out here, plz.
