Dove Ultimate White Deo Presents Unspeakably Yours: The Underarm Monologues

Thursday, September 13, 2012

     Last August 28 Ms. Lhen Hasal of Ogilvy Public Relations Manila invited me to experience a night that will showcase the launch of Dove's new line of underarm product. Filled with fun and laughter, Dove introduced this promising deodorant together with Upstart Productions through Unspeakably Yours: The Underarm Monologues. 

     I arrived just in time and was amazed by the set-up of the place. Free flowing champagne and a sumptuous dinner was served before the play started. I don't have any idea what this monologue's all about. I must admit that I'm not the type who will reserve a seat just to watch theatrical shows. I'd rather go clubbin' or spend the night chillin' with my friends and siblings but after seeing the energetic, talented and gorgeous ladies I said to myself that I need to make this a new hobby! I'm so impressed with their performance and felt goosebumps while they deliver their lines. I really enjoyed the night and amazed with the performance. I went home empowered saying A-WOmen! Do you want to know why? Just read more and find out :D

     Dove Deodorant recently collaborated with Upstart Productions to present Unspeakably Yours: The Underarm Monologues. Inspired by stories from real women, this original outspoken comedy explores views on an intimate part of the body that females love to hate and hate to love: their underarms.

     Beauty and Underarms rarely go together. In fact, women rarely talk about underarms, and women talk about everything. This is because many Filipinas are unhappy with their underarms: dark spots, chicken skin, odor and rough patches – real issues, but hardly the things you’d want to talk about over coffee. Still, real women, their issues, frustrations & joys, have always been Dove’s advocacy, so the idea of starting a conversation about one of the least talked about body parts stemmed out – what if your underarms could talk? What would it say to YOU, and what would YOU say back? Will it say something like Planet of the Apes or The Dark Knight Rises? I'm sure you're thinking of something right now and you can relate to what I'm saying, right?

     The underarms, perhaps the last thing a woman would think of when asked about her best beauty asset. Still, 87% of women think their underarms CAN be a beauty asset …IF ONLY they looked better!* But women can’t really consider their underarms as an asset if they don’t like the way they look. Unfortunately, that is exactly how more than half of women feel about their underarms with more than half ranking it as one of the body parts they are unhappiest about.

Thank you very much ladies for the wonderful performance :)))
Dove Ultimate White Deo Presents Unspeakably Yours: The Underarm Monologues
Unspeakably Yours: The Underarm Monologues is written by theater veterans Joel Trinidad (“Kaos”; “Breakups and Breakdowns”) and Cathy Azanza-Dy (“Love, Loss, and What I Wore”; “I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change”), and directed by Cathy Azanza-Dy and Jenny Jamora. The show stars (in alphabetical order): Caisa Borromeo, Mayen Bustamante-Cadd, and Angela Padilla. It is directed by Cathy Azanza-Dy and Jenny Jamora.
     Through the play, Dove Deodorant wishes to advocate that women should embrace and love their underarms, by first being comfortable enough to talk about them, and taking the time to care for and look after them. Espousing love for an otherwise hated body part perfectly affirms the Dove’s long-time celebration of real women and our view of beauty.
  • Did you know that when you shave, 30% of what is shaved off is actually your skin? 
  • Did you know that when you pluck, your underarms become more prone to ingrown hair? 
  • Did you know that repeated waxing can expose new skin cells too soon leaving skin irritated, dull and dry?
     Among whitening deo users, a common concern is stubborn dark spots or patches that just won’t go away. Women have tried many things: home remedies, derma/laser treatments, even make up, but these dark spots remain unsolved. Today, Dove introduces its latest innovation for underarm skincare and whitening: Introducing NEW Dove Ultimate White - Dove’s premium deodorant made specifically to whiten those stubborn dark spots in the underarm area.
     Dove Ultimate White Deodorant has ¼ moisturising cream, 2x licorice extracts and Vitamins E and F that nourish beneath the skin surface to effectively whiten and smoothen the underarms. It also has Omega 6 that works deep within the epidermis to reduce melanin formation and give precision whitening. Dark skin cells are slowly lifted away, revealing whiter, smoother underarm skin.
