Dove Visibly Smooth Giveaway – CLOSED

March 27th, 2010 • Related • Filed Under

I’ve mentioned before that I’m a big fan of Dove products. They had me from the “real beauty” campaign several years ago.

Now,  there’s another Dove product to love – Dove Visibly Smooth — an antiperspirant/deodorant that  helps minimize the look and feel of underarm hair over time. The unique formula helps women feel stubble-free for longer while delivering all the benefits of Dove anti-perspirant/deodorant, including 24-hour odor and wetness protection, along with Dove 1/4 Translucent Moisturizers™ that care for delicate underarm skin, and alleviate white marks.  I’ve been using it for about a month now and really like it.

How it works: Dove Ultimate Visibly Smooth contains a unique formula with Pro-Epil Complex, which includes natural extract ingredients, including Palmatine and Dove 1/4 Translucent Moisturizers™ with sunflower oil. It will minimize the look and feel of underarm hair over time.

To help raise awareness of the product, Dove has been helping bloggers around the country have some fun with their girlfriends, and I was one of those lucky bloggers. I got to host a party at which all of my guests got a stick of this deodorant and a fashionable necklace, courtesy of Dove. Here’s a video of our fun:

Obviously, I need to stick to writing, eh? Anyway, we did a “renewable fashion swap party” and we had a good time. But back to the product.

Dove Visibly Smooth is available in two forms of protection – Ultimate and Clinical Protection. The “Ultimate” costs about $3.89 to $4.88 and the “Clinical” costs $7.99 to $9.99. But, five lucky Lipstick to Crayons readers can win a stick of Dove Visibly Smooth for free, along with a beautiful white Dove beach towel by entering my contest below.

    I have MS and shaving is difficult for me so this would be a great prize to win~

    I started using Dove products several years ago. Their body wash, soap bars, shampoo, conditioner are just a few Dove peoducts I use. To win their stick “Dove Visibly Smooth” would be awesome. It will be great for all the spring & summer sleeveless dresses and shirts/blouses. It certainly will give a woman confidence. WOOHOO! I Love, Love, Love Dove Products.

    I’ve wanted to try this product for a while if I win it would be awesome (since I hate shaving every day)

  4. #4 Candy on March 28, 2010:

    A friend of mine uses Dove products and told me about them. I started using Dove in 1989 and I still use the deodorant and have added the body wash, shampoo and lotion, and others. My daughter also loves it. My three year old granddaughter loves it too. She uses mine and her Mom’s all the time.

  5. #5 Jackie on March 28, 2010:

    I’m most likely to to need Dove Visibly Smooth in the warmer weather when I’ll be wearing sleeveless shirts and bathing suits. Thanks for the review and giveaway!

    For myself, I’d like to be smooth all the time. The summer is of course the season we need help most when tank tops and swimsuits show everyone just how smooth we are.

    I absoutely love Dove products. I only use Dove soap, Dove body wash, if it is Dove, I use it. Actually, it was my Mom who got me using Dove years ago. When she became older, Dove was the only product (soap) she could use on her aging skin, so I used it too. The soap was the only product they made back then. I would absoutley love to win this deodorant. I just starting useing the shampoo and it is fabulous.

    I’d love to win this Dove product for one of my daughters. My daughters are all bi racial, but my youngest has very dark underarm hair and is always trying to figure out a way to “lessen” the hair, especially now that summer is coming!

    This would be awesome for her to try!
