For those who have been following my blog - all one of you it would seem - you probably read an entry posted earlier this month, a poorly written and barely coherent entry I might add, about eavesdropping on locker room conversations. Most memorable part is when I dismiss the Dove commercials for failing to do what it set out to in the first place. Despite my bitter and nonsensical ramblings, I will admit here that I am actually an avid and satisfied user of Dove products, especially their cleanser and moisturizing day cream. Occasionally I'll buy a Nivea or Nutrogena cleanser if it's on sale, however I strictly stick to using Dove day cream for my visage, and I may sound like a wide-eyed, trippy Stepford wife by saying this but honestly, I swear by Dove day cream - it's the only one that I'll ever use (*sound of a few pennies falling into the deep pockets of the Dove corporation). To borrow a phrase from the brilliant Tracy Jordon of 30 Rock, I love it so much I wanna take it behind the middle school and get it pregnant! *Cue applause.
I feel sad for my life just now, and it's not only because Jake Gyllenhaal has refused to write back to any of my fan letters, for you see I found out today that Dove discontinued the day cream line from its short list of manufactured beauty products. The thoughtless and very disengaged drugstore employee who delivered the bad news to me seemed not to notice the pain she caused. Not to seem flippant and incredibly rude, but I curse that employee now; she can go eat my poo!
Ahhm...so I'm taking my grief to the blog-o-sphere in the hopes that maybe writing it out will help me deal with this gaping black hole of loneliness and despair. So how am I living now without a moisturizing day cream that also had spf 15 right IN THE CREAM?! Well, not well I can tell you that much, it's been a rough couple of hours. The Olay moisturizing cream that I begrudgingly bought as second choice feels like - and I hope I'm not exaggerating here - a thousand rusty razor blades scraping against my skin.
