I don’t know about you, but I’ve been waiting, and waiting, and waiting for the warmer weather to peek around the corner and then be here for good. It looks like it may actually be happening now, which is GREAT since I’ve tested and stockpiled a bunch of beauty products that are perfect for the warmer months. Below you will find my list of must-haves, along with some field notes on what makes them so awesome for the upcoming season.
Unwanted oil and grease in your hair this summer will go ba-bye with this volumizing dry shampoo that smells amazing thanks to oats, rosemary, peppermint and cucumber. The sulfate free dry shampoo also possesses o dyes or parabens, and is perfect for a steamy day to humid night transition, especially if there is no time for an actual hair wash. Actually, who am I kidding; I never have time for an actual hair wash, so regardless of the season, this is my new go-to!
Being a new mom, I need a deodorant/antiperspirant combination that is so effective I can put it on and never think about it for the rest of the day. That includes moving through numerous outfit changes without leaving behind any white marks/residue. One of Dove’s latest dry spray antiperspirant products zeroes in on just that, preventing that annoying rub off into garments which can prove to be embarrassing if seen on the outside. Now available in the four fragrances of Sheer Cool, Crystal Touch, Clear Finish and Sheer Finish, you can rest assured that one of these scents will become a favorite, downright refusing to mar your clothing with a white deodorant gash, leaving no marks on 100 colors of clothing!
Currently available at mass grocery and drug retailers nationwide, the sprays retail for about $5.49 each.
Full Disclosure: Fashion Pulse Daily received samples for editorial consideration.
Dove has taken their seven year old Dove Men+Care up an aromatic, efficacious notch with the debut of its Elements line, a multi-product lineup that includes body washes, bars, deodorants and shampoos, featuring unique and rather effective ingredients for supreme freshness and cleanliness. Whereas Dove Men+Care has had existing products in these categories, they are now unified via three collections of high-quality, distinct ingredients: Minerals + Sage, Charcoal + Clay, Mineral Powder + Sandalwood. The properties found in each of these refresh, deep clean, purify, absorb moisture, soothe, while still managing to deliver Dove’s signature foundation of great hydration to the skin. I hate to play favorites, but I’ve go to admit that for me, the scent from the Minerals + Sage collection is highly addictive, which means I will be keeping it fully stocked in my bathroom for Fashion Pulse Hubby!
Dove Men+Care is currently available nationwide in food, drug, and mass outlet stores, at a retail price range of about $5-$8 each.
Speaking from experience as someone who has never been a morning person and probably never will be, being able to cut out “getting ready” steps and save time in the a.m. is essential. Say bah-bye to the lather step thanks to the brand new Dove Shower Foam, a lightweight formula that comes out of the self-foaming pump ready for application. The first of its kind from the brand, it still delivers all that you’ve come to expect from Dove, such as its gentle formula and NutriumMoisture ingredient blend that both nourishes and hydrates, and seeps into the surface skin up to 10 layers deep. The lovely lather quickly saturates the skin and rinses away, while the 13.5 oz bottle’s teardrop shape hardly takes up any space in the shower, which is key if you’re a shower product junkie like me.
Retailing for $5.97, you can already choose between four options – Deep Moisture, Sensitive Skin, Cucumber & Green Tea Scent, and Shea Butter with Warm Vanilla Scent. You’ll find the Dove Shower Foam at mass food and drug retailers where other Dove products are sold, such as Target.
