Note: I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes. All opinions are my own.
I’ve kinda been in a funk with the winter blues, but it helps to think happy thoughts. It also helps when Influenster sends me a VoxBox of free goodies in the mail to test out. Woot! (Check out my #jollyVoxBox review here.)
This time they sent me Dove Advanced Care Deodorant with Nutrium Moisture to cheer up my armpits. Seriously, 36% of what you remove when shaving is skin (64% is hair). As a result, armpit skin loses 50% more moisture, which can lead to dryness and irritation. I bet your armpits are feeling a little depressed now, too.
As one of the #RaiseYourArms Influenster VoxBox recipients, I was put to the test to see if this Dove deodorant helps moisturize and soften my pits. I would show you, but EWW – I don’t think we wanna go there. What would my kids think if they scrolled through my photos and saw armpit selfies? Plus, it’s winter here and my armpits are well hidden under layers of clothes…
Instead, I give you 10 things that make you #RaiseYourArms:
1. Dancing
2. High fiving
3. Diva Snappin’
4. Being a Super Hero
5. Waving
6. Raising the Roof
7. Saluting
8. Jamming
9. Knowing the Answer
10. Celebrating
Thanks for reading along. What makes you #RaiseYourArms?

P.S. I got these awesome gifs from giphy.com
P.P.S. I might have also browsed at a few Channing Tatum and Chris Hemsworth gifs while doing research for this post. But let’s just keep that to ourselves for now.
P.P.P.S. Do you want to be an Influenster? I have 3 invites left so send me an email at gracielle(at)mommya-z(dot)com or leave a comment below and I’ll send you an invite. First come, first serve.

If someone else does an armpit selfie and it goes viral, I’m gonna regret not doing it!
Channing Tatum gifs! Um…and you didn’t post them?! Think of the search traffic, Gracielle! LOL:):)

Ooh I could do an entire post on just that!
What a clever and fun way to review your box! I got the j’adore vox box and it came with a huge bag of chocolate kisses!

I got that one, too! The Red Rose tea was soooooo good!
ha! you are hilarious.
These gifs are amazing.
I got the same deodorant and I do think dancing makes me raise my arms! I also love to throw Des up into the air and catch him. He’s big so I can’t forsee doing that for long. Thanks, Dove, for having me covered.

Gifs seemed so much more appropriate than armpit selfies for this post. LOL Zavier makes me put pretend deodorant on him in the morning because he gets a little tickle out of it! Boys are silly.

Thanks Rabia! Gifs are so much more fun than armpit selfies. LOL
Wow. 36%, huh? I never would have guessed. That kinda grosses me out. But since you didn’t post the armpit selfies, I’ll forgive you. And because you posted an Austin Powers gif, we can still be sisters. And because you posted an Emma Stone gif, I’ll love you forever. #slightEmmaStonegirlcrush
Very creative way to review your rosy armpit lotion 🙂

LOL I loved your comment!! I’m glad we can still be sisters and that you’ll love me forever. I just keep looking at your words ROSY + ARMPIT + LOTION and start cracking up. I have the giggles right now.
I would love to be an Influenster! How does it work? Loved the gifs!!!

You take a couple surveys and link up your social media channels…if your profile fits their upcoming campaign, then they send you a box of stuff to test out. It’s free! I’ve gotten 3 so far!! Then they give you mini tasks like tweet or write a review of fb. LMK if you want me to send you an invitation!
What a fun review – love all the gifs. Ummm…weight lifting (shoulder presses) make me raise my arms!
Kim recently posted…A Fun Challenge for March
Heck yeah! Working out definitely give you a reason to raise your arms…and umm, wear deodorant!
This post gave me a good laugh. Some moments I definitely remember from seeing in a movie or on TV so LOL to that! Nothing beats your cute boy superhero that you have at home, but Austin Powers is so hilarious in that first one! Hehe.

Glad it made you laugh! It was my first time using gifs on my blog and it was fun picking them out!
The thought of armpit selfies had me cracking up! You are too funny! Very creative in the way you used #RaiseYourArms…love it!

Glad I made you laugh! Influenster actually asked the folks participating in the campaign to post pics with their arms raised in sleeveless shirts. Ummm, no thanks! Lol
i am a total armpit sweater. i used to get botox, but stopped because of my pregnancy so i actually don't do anything or use any deodorant right now. i'll have to check out dove, because i love their scents.
You are brave for not wearing any deodorant! The dove scents are light, which I like because most fragrances give me a headache.
