Degree Gets Into the Move

 
Degree makes the best drugstore body mists (if you are a daily reader of PWs you've already heard me gush over them).  Because of my extreme love for the Degree team, I knew the super-secret announcement they were going to share at a Zumba class here in LA (please notice my friend Zumba-ing with her mouth hanging open in the above pic) was going to be a big one.  And they did not disappoint!  Degree has just released a new Facebook App called "Get Into the Move" which is a program that rewards us all with chances to win thousands of cool prizes just by doing the things we already do on a daily basis (well, at least those things that make us move).  If you log in to facebook.com/degreewomen and share our PWs code (CODE: 186) in the "enter codes" section you will get motionMILES  (virtual currency which is redeemable towards chances to win thousands of prizes).  Your motionMILES will be given to you when you log in the various ways women move, including checking in with Facebook places and logging activities.  Eligible activities include going to the gym, dancing, yoga and various other activities women already do, like grocery shopping or catching the bus. 

And here's where it gets really good - prizes include a surfing trip in Hawaii, designer shoes and much more.  Fans can also choose to donate motionMILES in a dollar amount to one of two charities: The Challenged Athletes Foundation and Girls in The Game.  This is seriously awesome!  Sign in today and use the special code (186) to be sure you get all those motionMILES!  Carry on busy ladies!

Degree with motionSENSE

  

Okay, how many times have you thought - I really love my deodorant.  I mean, sure, we all have the brands we gravitate towards, but I can't say I've ever really put on my deodorant and thought "awesome!"  (usually I just think, "I'm glad I remembered this so I don't stink the joint up today.")  Well, I was sent a brand new Degree deodorant to test out that is just now hitting shelves and is definitely a deodorant to get a little hyped about. Degree has added this patented stuff called motionSENSE which supposedly makes you feel fresher longer (it releases when movement occurs, not when moisture occurs like your usual deodorant).  So, the idea here is the stuff will kick into overdrive before you really "need" it to which means you won't smell nasty for even a second.  I have been using it every single day and it really does work.  No, I don't feel it kick in like a turbobooster, or anything, but what I do notice is after a long day I still smell the fresh scent of the deodorant as strong as when I first put it on in the morning.  It comes in three scents, Active Clean, Cotton Fresh and the one I tried - "Fresh Energy" which is a citrus scent.  It's actually really nice, but is on the stronger side so be sure you love citrus if you buy this one (I personally think I would like the Active Clean to slather on my pits).  What I especially like about this deodorant is it is a refreshing change from the usual powder-y scents which now just smell like deodorant to me.  Degree with motionSENSE smells like it could be a body mist (which I have already raved about their mists - the BEST on the market hands-down - you need to try them!!).  This deodorant is definitely worth a check-out.  Retails for $4.16.

Who Needs Expensive Body Mists?!

It may sound hard to believe but Degree (yes, the deodorant people) make the best and most affordable body mists on the market!  Their Natureffects collection is so awesome that when I wear it (which is just about every day) I consistently get compliments and people asking me what I'm wearing.  When I tell them I spent only a few bucks to smell this damn good, they are stunned.  Seriously, if you haven't perused the deodorant aisle you are really missing out (never thought I'd put that in a blog post).  I usually wear their Orange Flower and Cranberry, but was recently introduced to Honeysuckle and Tea Tree Oil (well, hello there new mist) and it's fabulous.  Honeysuckle and Tea Tree Oil smells refreshingly light and floral and lasts the better part of the day.  It is the perfect scent for anyone who loves floral.  If you like a more deeper scent, check out the Orange Flower and Cranberry for sure.  Natureffects body sprays are a fantastic option for those of us who don't want to have to take out a loan to buy a body mist. Also, Degree always offers coupons on its site ($1.00 off right now) and Target is having a promotion this week - buy a Natureffects deodorant and get the body mist free (sweeeeet)!

Natureffects Without Sleeping Outdoors

 

  

When I saw that Degree Women released Natureffects Body Sprays I was really shocked.  I mean, how good could body mists created by a deodorant company be?  Well, the answer is, surprisingly wearable.  The mists do not remind me of deodorant (a big positive) but rather smell of floral and fruit which smell fantastically fresh on my skin.  Natureffects Body Mists come in three scents - Honeysuckle & Tea Tree Oil (a strong floral scent), Olive Leaf and Pink Pepper (A woodsy, fresh laundry spray) and my personal favorite, Orange Flower & Cranberry (sweet, sophisticated, with a hint of fruit).  All of the sprays last the better part of the day and retail for only $3.99 which is amazing.  Also, if you print a coupon from their site, you can get them for even less.  I am super-impressed and liked the scents so much, I went out and bought the matching deodorant.  Never thought I'd be excited about buying something for my armpits.
