I’ve always had combination skin. Although I have some oily areas on my face, I suffer from dry skin on the rest of my body and am always on the lookout for products that will help me to retain moisture. This is especially true during the Spring and Summer months when I tend to shave my legs more often due to more frequent wear of shorts or dresses. I find that my skin tends to lose valuable nutrients during this time and I have to work harder to keep it soft and smooth.
Recently, I found a product that not only allows me to enjoy a luxurious lather when I am showering but that I can also use as a substitute for shaving cream during the warm weather. New Dove Crème Mousse body washes feature a rich, whipped formula that allows me to enjoy the benefits of a body wash and a shave cream in one product. That helps me to replenish my skin’s moisture and to be kinder to my skin when I shave frequently in the shower.
The best part is that by using Dove Crème Mousse Body Washes, I also save lots of money because I don’t have to purchase two separate products to shower and shave with. I’m sure I don’t have to tell you guys how expensive toiletries and personal hygiene products can be, especially when you are buying them for a family of four. Any product that is kind to our monthly budget is very beneficial to our family.
I loved the pearlescent crème texture of this new body wash collection because it creates a very foamy lather in the shower which felt heavenly on my skin. We use sponges and washcloths in our home and I found that a small amount of this body wash went a long way and created a very luxurious lather. All of the Dove Crème Mousse Body Washes smell delicious but I especially enjoyed the scent of the rich and creamy deep moisture variety.
Dove Crème Mousse Body Washes, which replace the Dove VisibleCare Collection, are available at food, drug, mass, value, club and online retailers beginning this Spring, 2014. You can officially get your skin and your legs ready to show them off in the warm weather!

The warm weather months are actually easier than the winter, at lest in Indiana. In the summer I use lotions, as usual, including sunscreen, as a burn ill dry out and make my skin peel. So I want to prevent sun burns at all costs. I have very fair skin too. One good tip to keep skin moisturized is, after getting out of the bath or shower, put lotion directly on your skin before drying off with a towel. This way the skin is able to absorb some of the moisture from the water too.
