When I was a little girl, I spent a lot of time in my grandma's home because she watched me after school. I remember rummaging through her closets, dresser drawers and cabinets under the bathroom sink looking for treasures. I always thought my grandma had the best stuff, and she would routinely let me keep my finds. As I got older, I was less interested in necklaces and bracelets, and instead had my eyes set on bath and beauty products, including perfume, lipstick and curious white bars of soap my grandma had stockpiled under her bathroom sink.
As it turns out, these bars of soap were Dove Beauty Bars. I recall smelling them over and over again because I loved their scent so much, and apparently I asked if I could take a couple home with me to use in the bathtub. My grandma was more than happy to share her beauty secret with her granddaughter, and I will forever associate the the Dove brand with her (I'm almost convinced at this point that it's why she looks so great at 90!).
Share Your #BeautyStory with CVS
Dove knows that real beauty is shaped by real women, and this spring they’re celebrating that by sharing some inspiring beauty stories, nationwide. Now, you can share who in your life taught you to make Dove part of your beauty routine by using #BeautyStory. It’s a great way to say thanks during this Mother’s Day season to the women who helped shape your perception of beauty, and to inspire other women to discover their own.
Check out the inspiring video from Dove’s latest campaign to hear one family’s inspiring #BeautyStory. It involves four generations of women, and a tradition of passing down one simple beauty secret: the Dove Beauty Bar. I was really moved when one daughter said, “My mom was the one who started this all off, and she passed it along to me and my sister. Then we passed it along to our daughters. So I guess it’s kind of like a family secret.” What a sweet tradition! Now that my daughter is entering her tween years, I'll be making sure that I pass on my grandma's beauty secret ... it's a beauty tradition worth passing on!
