The bathroom door clicks shut, I take a seat and it's like an alarm goes off in the minds of my children.
"Mom! Can you get me a drink?"
"Mom! Can I have a snack?"
"MOM! SHE HIT ME!!"
It's like they know. Something deep within them snaps and as soon as I hit the bathroom they lose their ever-lovin' minds.
But there is one place where I can often find myself alone, without distraction and with time only to myself.
The shower.
So a few weeks ago when this little gem arrived, I was THRILLED. What a perfect product for my very first sponsored review!
I looked at the bottle, turning it's streamline shape over in my hands. The bottle touts, "Visibly more beautiful skin in just one week."
Psh. Yeah, right, I thought. How can a body wash make my skin softer? But as I looked further and read more about this revolutionary line of premium body wash, I realized that the product I received was not only formulated to to soften skin but to moisturize dry spots.
Um, yeah. That's me.
While my shower time is usually all my own, I rarely get time once I'm out of the shower to do more than get dressed, much less apply lotion. And girls, my skin get d-r-y. Especially my hands since I wash them approximately 4,872 times per day.
But this body wash? It's legit.
I lathered its rich creme on my skin, breathed in the amazing fresh, clean floral fragrance and felt my skin get softer.
With a 4 month old, it's often hard to feel beautiful in my own skin. My body isn't what I want it to be, I have very little time to fix myself up and often I simply wash and go. But y'all, this stuff has changed my mind just a bit.
Maybe it's the relaxing fragrance. Maybe it's the quiet time in the shower knowing I'm washing away all the dry, scaly skin.
Maybe it's the fact that even in the shower I feel like a multitasker since I can wash, soften and moisturize all at the same time. But this Dove Visible Care Softening Body Wash made me feel more prepared to take on my little brood of children. And, in some ways, more beautiful. Because I believe beautiful skin comes not only from the products you apply outwardly but the comfort you feel on the inside coming out.
So maybe it's true. Maybe you can get visibly more beautiful skin from a body wash! I think maybe it's possible. And just to be sure, I'll need lots of hours of alone with this purply-white bottle. :)
If the kids are looking for me, I'll be in
