June. The month for Dad’s. I have always loved Father’s Day. My Dad was a pretty special guy. He would literally give you the shirt off of his back and did so many times. I remember once he was driving down the road and came across a young couple with several young children. He stopped, got out of the car and proceeded to talk to them for several minutes. It was a hot summer day and he just couldn’t imagine them walking any further in the heat than they already had. Turns out the father had lost his job, they had lost their home, their car and everything else they had. They were hitch-hiking to get to Florida where they had family. I can’t remember where they were coming from, but I do remember that it was a long way…they had no other options. My dad took all the money he had and bought them food and bus tickets so that they wouldn’t have to hitch-hike any further and could eat. He didn’t know those people, he was just that compassionate.

My Dad passed away 10 years ago and is greatly missed. I can still remember the way he smelled. That’s the thing about Dad’s, I think their children will always remember the way they smelled as they held them tight and helped them grow into the people they become also making sure they stay safe. The office I work in everyday was my Dad’s, along with the desk that I sit at. Sometimes if I turn my head just right I can get a whiff of him. It is a comfort to my soul. Just like my Dad was comfortable with who he was as a person.

My kids will always remember their Dad smelling of Dove Men + Care. Bric loves Dove Men + Care because it isn’t harsh on his skin, rinses clean and I love it because it leaves his skin soft and smelling great.

Dove Men Care

New Dove Men + Care, from the #1 dermatologist recommended brand Dove, is built on the brand’s heritage in cleansing, moisturizing and care.

●The new Dove Men + Care Sensitive Clean Body and Face Wash clinically fights dryness better than regular men’s body washes* and is formulated specifically for men who prefer a mild, unscented body and face wash.

●The new Dove Men + Care Deodorants and Antiperspirants are formulated to provide advanced 48 hour protection, so they’re tough on sweat, not on skin.

Dove Men + Care has a new series of videos chronicling their “Journey to Comfort” featuring Stewart Cink and Davis Love in their journey:

Dove Men+Care

Awhile back I told you all about the Dove Men+Care line of products specifically for men and their skin. Bric is still using that line of products. It is all I ever buy for him now….we truly do like it that much. He likes the way it cleans, I like the way it makes his skin feel and I love the way it smells. Dove Men+Care is specially designed to help fight dryness with moisturizers integrated into each product and is also design to rinse clean so you don’t have all that left over soap residue on your skin. The Dual Sided Shower Tool is FABULOUS! Don’t tell, but I use it pretty often, that’s how I know how fabulous it is. The mesh side provides a great lather and the spongy side provides a deep clean.

Dove Men+Care is not only offering you the chance to win a set of their Men+Care products but they are also featuring a SWEEPSTAKES on their site where you can enter for your chance to win an all expense paid trip to St. Louis for a once in a lifetime BASEBALL EXPERIENCE!

Whew, I am working on getting everything caught up around here. I feel like I was thrown in a blender for awhile. Ok, so yes, my hair even looks like I was but that is besides the point because I haven’t brushed it today. And I haven’t decided if I am going to brush it or not. I might just want to stay in my pajamas all day and filter through the sales job search drink sweet tea and eat cookies. Doesn’t that sound divine? Yea, but reality will set in and I will have to brush my hair and put on clothes and go to town for some reason or another. Oh well, one can dream.

Dove has a fabulous new campaign featuring skin care products for men and some great commercials to go with those new products! Bric has been using the Dove Men + Care products for about a week now and has commented several times on how much he likes all of the products. And I can attest to the fact that his skin is smoother and softer…and I like the way that it smells.

Isn’t it great!  Dove wants men to be as comfortable in their skin as they are with themselves. That place in their lives when they can finally take it all in stride with their own definition of success. Now men can literally be comfortable in their skin thanks to new Dove Men +Care (Body and Face Wash + Body and Face Bar)

Dove Men + Care:

* Dove’s first ever product line formulated specifically for men’s needs
* Provides the cleansing and refreshment that men want combined with Dove moisturizers to provide total skin comfort

*Clinically proven to fight skin dryness

You can also celebrate your man’s unsung moments on www.brickfish.com/doveunsungmoments, whether it’s a story, photo or video:  There’s a time in every man’s life when he realizes he’s changed, and you’ve noticed too. From that time he gave up the remote so that you could watch your favorite show to when you saw him cheering louder at your son’s baseball game than at a professional game, share that Unsung Moment when you noticed your man was truly comfortable in his own skin. Your story could win him a backyard makeover, just in time for spring, plus new Dove Men+Care products. He’s reached a point where he’s comfortable with who he is – his skin should be comfortable too.
