Dove Encourages You to Go Shave!

If you can talk to your shaver, what would you say to it? 

When I was younger, I didn't know what to do with underarm hair. All I know is that I want it gone...and fast. And the fastest way to get rid of it is my shaver. Good thing, after reading one too many Candy Magazines, I learned to use it with lukewarm water, to soften my skin. However, it still gives me bumps and not so confident in showing my underarms.

Did you know that shaving remains to be the most common method of underarm hair removal for 70% of Filipinas? Bacause it is the quickest and most convenient way to get rid of unwanted hair, it's a go-to for emergency situations where you have to reveal your underarms.Unfortunately, 1/3 of what you remove from shaving is actually skin, which leads to underarm darkening. Along with your hair, shaving takes away the top-most layer of your skin, leaving it irritated. And with continued shaving, skin is unable to heal itself and becomes bumpy, dry and dark.

Dove is here to the rescue! With its unique ¼ moisturizing cream, it soothes underarm skin from irritation. It also helps repair damage caused by shaving, making your underarms lighter and smoother.

Dra. Anna Palabyab-Rufino of the Philippine Dermatological Society says, “Shaving is practically considered a necessity as women want to remove underarm hair, which is why using a deodorant with moisturizing benefits on a daily basis is the perfect way to care for your underarms.”

During the #DoveGoShave event held at The Greens in Greenbelt 5, we had the chance to share our shaving stories. Oh the horror it was! But then it got exciting when we customized our own Dove Deo Care Kit, which contained items such as a shaver, shaving cream, a complete collection of Dove Original deo products, and a sleeveless top, among others. And because Dove wants women to share the care and their Dove deo stories, we also got to personally mail a Dove Deo Care Kit to friend who would also share the love for Dove. 

“In line with Dove’s mission to provide real women with real care, we want to encourage them to go shave, and enjoy their lives fully because Dove deodorant takes care of their underarms,” said Apples Aberin, Unilever Philippines’ PR Head.

Now, you don’t need to worry about the harmful causes of shaving. #DoveGoShave whenever you want, because with Dove Deo, you can finally leave your shaving worries behind. 

Dove Deo shares the care with all Dove girls around the Philippines. For the price of a regular roll-on or aerosol, you not only get a limited edition Dove Deo pouch for free, but also a chance to win a Dove Deo getaway to El Nido with two friends, by redeeming the code inside to join the raffle.
