Girl Boss Secrets

Where my fellow lady bosses at? Most of the other bloggers I met around San Francisco at events don’t blog full-time. As my friend Justina puts it “I’m a dental hygienist by day, blogger by night”. I’m constantly running around to my day job, to events, around town shooting photos or just cuddled up with my cat writing posts and Instagraming the afternoon away. I’ve learned to rely on dry shampoo a LOT, but I recognized that I still needed to get an all-day beauty upgrade.

The first step was finding a deodorant that actually worked for the time it says it will. For my whole life, I’ve shopped deodorants based on impulse: what’s on sale, what has pretty packaging, what smells nice. It wasn’t until a couple months ago when I was working all day and rushed home to drop off my bag, then hop into a car to catch an event that i realized my deodorant just wasn’t working. I put it on less than 10 hours ago but I was sweaty and not feeling fresh (just the thing you want to happen right before you go network with a lot of people) So, when Dove reached out about collaborating on a project with their 48 hour Dove Advanced Care Antiperspirant, I jumped at the chance to test it out.

Guys, I know this is a sponsored post, but this stuff really works! For the past week all I’ve been wearing is Dove Advanced Care Antiperspirant 48hours – including during my weekend away with the girls when we danced half the trip and were always on the go! This blend has skincare benefits of  Dove ¼ moisturizers and NutriumMoisture, on top of helping me stay fresh, which is why it’s been an instant favorite. I’ve been keeping it out near my workstation instead of tucked in my closet/beauty counter so I can quickly apply it while on the go.

My next beauty upgrade mission? Finding a curling iron + hairspray combo that will actually hold curls all day! If you have recommendations, leave a comment below!
