October is a perfect month to celebrate self-esteem; it is an ideal time to partner with Dove and CVS to tell you about Dove’s Self-Esteem Project.

Having four children myself, I have witnessed how self-esteem problems can affect them as they grow up. It takes a lot of support and confidence building over and over. it takes lots of pep talks and self-care to keep self-esteem high. And it's hard enough to feel and stay confident in yourself every day, let alone help guide younger people to do the same.

Dove’s Self-Esteem Project has helped 40 million young people build self-esteem since 2004. For more than 10 years, Dove has been helping parents, mentors, teachers, and youth leaders deliver self-esteem education that’s reached more than 20 million young people so far. Dove is on a mission to help young people overcome body image issues and fulfill their potential by building positive body confidence and self-esteem. It is such an amazing project and a very important one.

I’ve shared my secrets that best I can, with my children and their friends. I tell them that they need to trust in themselves, first and foremost. Confidence grows in time and it comes from within. We all have our good days and bad days, but if you are kind, do your best, do good for others and feel good doing good, that you will FEEL good and that is what will bring about confidence. People constantly try to shake your confidence and that is hard on your self-esteem, but when you trust in yourself and know your worth, it will be easier and easier. It is NOT about your ability or lack thereof and NOT what is on the outside; it is what you project and that is what comes from the inside.

The Dove Self-Esteem Project helps support so much, like body positivity, with the help of Dove products which can be found readily at CVS. CVS is a proud supporter of the Self-Esteem Project, and they are giving discounts on select Dove products through 10/26.

You already know that I am a big fan and user of many Dove products, and one reason is because Dove helps enhance natural beauty. By using Dove products, you can make it easy for young people to let their confidence shine.

Some great Dove products to start young people out with would include some of the Dove “basics” for natural beauty. Think, shampoo and conditioner, deodorant, Dove bars and body wash. I’ve included some of my favorites that work for all below.

Dove Nutritive Solutions Daily Moisture Shampoo & Conditioner
This duo helps nourish to make hair softer and 5x smoother when using system vs. non-conditioning shampoo and conditioner. Not only does it protect your hair from normal wear and tear, it leaves you with that manageable, silky hair feeling every day.

Dove Deep Moisture Body Wash
I swear by this body wash and it is in ALL of the showers in my house; it is so good for dry skin. Formulated with NutriumMoisture technology, it delivers skin natural nutrients and nourishes deep into the surface layers of the skin. Skin is left very soft as it relives that dry, tight feeling. When skin looks and feels good, it gives you confidence!

Dove White Beauty Bar
This classic beauty bar is a favorite amongst the boys in my house. Created with moisturizing cream and mild cleansers, it helps your skin maintain its natural moisture. It’s NOT soap and it does not dry your skin like regular soap does.

Dove Crushed Lavender & Coconut Milk Exfoliating Body Scrub
For skin that glows, I recommend this great smelling exfoliating body scrub. This gentle scrub helps to buff away dull, dry skin. I really like the creamy whipped texture. It’s very luxurious, and is the perfect exfoliating scrub for a home spa experience.

Dove Scent Shower Foam in Shea Butter with Warm Vanilla
This instant foam cleanser wraps skin in a light, airy lather as it cleanses and cares for skin. It leaves skin clean and looking very smooth. It’s also made with NutriumMoisture technology to protect skin’s natural nutrients yet it rinses off clean and quickly. It features the warm scent of vanilla, sandalwood, and musk to give a boost of confidence in the shower.

Dove Advanced Care Antiperspirant Deodorant
The original scent of this antiperspirant deodorant will deliver the confidence anyone needs to get through the toughest of situations. Offering up to 48 hours of antiperspirant protection, this Deodorant for women protects against underarm wetness and odor. It also contains Dove NutriumMoisture and moisturizers for extra underarm care.
