I am not a fan of shaving, is there any woman that is? Unfortunately it is a task that is a must. I have dark hair which means it is pretty noticeable at any angle in any light unless it is hidden under long pants and t-shirts. However here in South Florida the shirt of choice is usually a tank top. In fact, many of my work shirts are classy tank tops. This means that I must shave under my arms often. Otherwise I could have an embarrassing situation on my hands.
I once had someone ask me if I had gotten laser hair removal under my arms. I guess that means I was doing a good job keeping up on the shaving because that is not the case. Though I definitely would consider it after having gone through some treatments. I had no idea, however, that there is a side effect to the amount of shaving I do…
Dove® Changing the Way the World Sees the Armpit
I never thought about losing my skin in such a delicate area. I can’t say the thought of it gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling I’m pretty “attached” to my skin. I’m more concerned with does it look smooth? Does it smell ok? Please let it smell ok? LOL I’ve been using Dove® deodorant for some time now. I love the light smell that makes me feel fresh yet protected. My favorite scent is the “powder” it reminds me of baby powder. Dove® has a new line of deodorant to help combat the “loss of skin” problem, their advanced care line.
This year, join Dove® deodorant in changing the way the world sees the armpit. Dove® is looking to inform women that they can lose up to 38% of their under arm skin every time they shave. While that may be shocking, there’s something women can do to keep their underarms protected. Simply using Dove® Deodorant after shaving soothes your sensitive skin and keeps you fresh with unstoppable 24-hour odor and wetness protection.
We can’t stop shaving, well I guess you could but I don’t recommend it, so it might be best to make sure that you are protecting the delicate area of your body by switching to Dove® deodorant. Even if you are lucky enough to have laser hair removal done that doesn’t stop the need for deodorant.
Invisible Solid in Powder scent glides on clear to provide 24- hour odor and wetness protection. It’s formulated with Dove® moisturizers to give you soft, smooth underarms with a light, powder-fresh fragrance.

My underarm area is VERY sensitive … if I’m not using a brand new blade, my underarms will break out. I’m going to the Dove and see if it helps!

Oh, I wish I could get laser removal. My hair is very dark so I have to shave every day, which is not pleasant. Maybe this will make it more bearable.

Ouch, that explains why it gets so tender there after shaving sometimes!
