Feeling hot, hot, hot...


So, today I'm going to let you into one of my beauty secrets - don't worry I won't be making a habit of this, I'm sure most women of a certain age do not need to know about my chipped nails and cracked heels. Above is the lovely Mallorcan beach where I was wiped out by heat stroke. Nasty. I've never experienced that before and it's very debilitating. I barely moved for two whole days, even when there was a forest fire at the end of our street. My thermostat was out of control (blimey, those night shivers are scary), but at least my armpits were cool and dry and that's because I was using my favourite deodorant:


I always use Dove Original because it's fragrance-free. Though sometimes when I'm busy and don't get round to replenishing stocks, I'm forced to use Mr That's Not My Age's anti-perspirant which is a bit macho and smells like old-fashioned after shave. The stench bothers me all day. Obviously it doesn't bother me when Mr TNMA is wearing it - but I tend to keep my nose away from his armpits. So when the people at Dove challenged me to wear this deodorant for seven days and blog about my experience, I was more than happy to oblige:

It doesn't smell, is better than the stuff Mr TNMA uses and leaves the armpits feeling soft and smooth.

  1. ; )- I have the very same deodorant and like it a lot.
    The round Dove cream lotion is a perfect finish to a thorough shower.
