Recently, I was sent a box filled with an assortment of Unilever products such as, Dove deodorant, Ponds towelettes, Dove hair mousse and more. I’ve been a Unilever buyer for as long as I can remember. I first learned about Pond’s cream from my Abulelita (Grandmother) growing up. She always had beautiful skin and she owes it all to Pond's cream. Looking at my grandmother whose skin was always so fabulous and smooth, I started using Ponds when I was just a teenager and I have to admit, my … [Read more...]
