The View from the SoHi Room at The Trump Soho & Dove’s #LoveAtFirstSwipe

I’ve been a Dove girl for decades. So when I received an invite to attend the #LoveAtFirstSwipe event, I immediately said yes.

Living in The Bronx and working in midtown, I rarely travel below 14th Street Union Square. For Dove, I made the exception. And as a lifelong New Yorker, the sight of my city rarely impresses me. I take so much for granted. But the moment I stepped out on the 46th floor of The Trump Soho – the view from the SoHi Room took my breath away.

I got to learn about Dove’s Advanced Care Deodorant. As I said, I’ve always been a Dove deodorant girl and their latest product offers the moisture and protection a busy mom like me needs. It goes on super soft, leaving skin smooth and smells light and fresh. It really was #LoveAtFirstSwipe.

Warmer weather means tank tops and dresses. Which means – more shaving. It never fails that at some point in the summer, I get an ingrown hair under my arm. (Sorry, TMI.) I shared my concerns with Dove dermatologist, Dr. Ellen Marmur – here are some of her recommendations:

     – Avoid shaving creams. Use Dove Beauty Bar or Dove Body Wash.

     – Change your shaving apparatus regularly. 

     – Shaving should only take 4 – 5 strokes. More than that is bad for your skin.

     – Use a deodorant that includes moisturizer.

     – Use warm water compresses. An ingrown hair is not a pimple, do not pop.  

There were also stylists on hand to talk us through the various athleisure wear and accessories from Wantable.com. They put together different looks but my favorites were City Chic and Namaste Boho. I may have fallen off the fitness wagon, but these looks could be just thing to get back on.
