Don't Fret the Sweat - Unilever Deodorant Blog Tour
My daughter turned ten this summer. It was a big birthday. She is officially a tween now. I knew that it meant she was going to be growing up, but I had a pretty big surprise one hot summer day. I realized that she needed deodorant. I mean she REALLY needed deodorant. She walked by me and I got a whiff of something I hadn't been expecting to happen quite so soon. And while I hate to admit my first born is growing up, this was a wake up call that I couldn't ignore.
So now I have to start buying her deodorant. Its not an option when her confidence is on the line. One day of forgetting deodorant could scar her for life at this point. But her skin isn't used to it, so the deodorant I choose needs to be safe and gentle. Dove, a Unilever Product, has always been one of my favorite brands for all my skincare needs. They're products always smell nice and never cause outbreaks. So of course I thought of them first when it was time to get my daughter her deodorant. And now Unilever is offering even more encouragement for our tweens with their Don't Fret the Sweat website.
Don't Fret the Sweat is a great outlet for parents and tweens to learn more about their bodies and the changes that are taking place as children approach adolescence. It gives you suggestions on how to talk to your children about this delicate topic without embarrassment. You'll find expert advice and printable money saving coupons. They even have a product matchmaker that will help you discover which Unilever products are just right for your tween.
We were sent some samples of the Dove Ultimate Go Fresh line to try out for the blog tour. We received the pomegranate & lemon verbena deodorant as well as the matching body mist. My daughter was thrilled with the light, fresh scent and she loved that it came with "perfume" too. It really made her feel grown up and special. Plus the body mist helps her to remember to use the deodorant because getting to spritz herself is a special treat that goes along with it. The deodorant goes on clear and doesn't leave marks on clothes, and I like the smell so much, I might start using this scent for myself as well.
In addition to Dove, Unilever also makes, Degree and Sauve Deodorants, all of which come in a wide range of scents. It will be easy to find the perfect one for your tween . Check out Don't Fret the Sweat today and keep our tween smelling sweet!
I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour campaign by Mom Central on behalf of Unilever and received the items necessary to facilitate my review. In addition, Mom Central sent me a gift card to thank me for taking the time to participate
