Dove Advanced Care Deodorant (For Women)

Women often neglect caring for their armpits, but underarm skin requires the same care given to the rest of their bodies. A recent published study shows that 36% of what you remove when shaving is actually skin – only 64% is hair.* As a result of this shaving irritation, armpit skin loses 50% more moisture, which can lead to dryness and sensitivity.** This is why it is important to provide your skin with the moisturization it needs using the simple, three-step PitiCure™ treatment. Exfoliate, Rinse and Care, three simple steps that will leave your armpits feeling softer and smoother. The Dove® At-Home PitiCure™ is a treatment that cleanses and helps care for armpit skin over time with the application of Dove® Advanced Care Anti-Perspirant/Deodorant with NutriumMoisture™.

Step 1: Exfoliate: Use a gentle exfoliating scrub or wipes to cleanse underarms and draw out impurities

•  Impurities in the underarm area can cause unwanted irritation (e.g., folliculitis/ingrown hair); exfoliation and cleansing can help to relieve this

Step 2: Rinse: Rinse the area with warm water and pat dry with a soft towel 

Step 3: Care: Apply Dove® Advanced Care Anti-Perspirant/Deodorant with NutriumMoisture™

• Formulated with NutriumMoisture™ to care for underarm skin
• Provides softer, smoother underarm skin in just 3 days
• Offers 48-hour odor and wetness protection
