Unilever Beauty Tip of the Day Giveaway

October 31, 2009

Did you know that you're removing 20% of the skin when you shave your underarms?

What the heck? No wonder some anti-perspirants irritate me so much! I probably end up scratching off another 40% with my violent clawing!!


That's the kind of tip I've been noticing on my Unilever Beauty Tip of the Day widget (down yonder on my blog.) I've learned to use an anti-perspirant with translucent moisturizers to prevent that kind of madcap itching.

And the hands down best lip moisturizer ever is Vaseline. I put it on when I go to bed at night, and it moisturizes all night long. I'm in lifetime love with it.


Because I've been sporting the widget on my blog, I was sent a few Unilever products to try out: Dove hair conditioner, Dove Clinical Protection anti-perspirant, Q-Tips, and Pond's Wet Cleansing Towelettes.

And now it's your turn!

Win It: Unilever is going to send one of my readers a selection of products which may or may not contain the same things I received. But I'm sure you'll be tickled with whatever they send, right?!

My best tip is to slather your hands with moisturizer and then put gloves on. It really does a great job of hydrating the skin.

Wow, I'm not sure I can compete with cdziuba, but here's my two tips: Drink lots of water, and get plenty of rest. Healthy=beautiful!

Also, underarm itching is sometimes an allergic reaction to your deodorant! Especially if it's accompanied by discoloration.

LadyStyx said...

I love Qtips...I refuse to use generic brands there.

I've used the Dove shampooes and conditioners, they're not bad. I found the Advanced Care line to be to my liking. The Pro-Age (maroon bottle) deals with the more mature head of hair (at 40, I think I qualify now) and the Intensive Care (navy bottle)did fairly well because of my color damaged hair.

Vaseline on the lips at night are a must, especially during the winter...otherwise I end up with severely chapped lips (even with the amount of water I drink daily).

My beauty tip - get more use/life out of your eyeshadows! Use them as eyeliner when you put it on with a tiny eyelining brush! You can go without buying eyeliner again!

Make sure you drink adequate fluids and get your rest. I think longterm beauty comes from using sunscreen, moisturizer and making sure to clean the makeup off.

My best tip-Don't put hairspray in your hair after a night of drinking it up and then play with bunson burners in a 7 o'clock chem lab. Or, put face power on your lips before lipstick to make it last longer. Whichever. Thanks for the giveaway!
