I remember, many moons ago, when my sister-in-law was on a diet, and she had said she was taking an apatrim product. I didn’t even think about it until about a year ago when I saw apatrim in the store. I honestly couldn’t even believe they were still making …

I buy the ones with …

There are a few products that are timeless and classic, and one of these is Dove’s classic white beauty bar, with “1/4 Moisturizing lotion.” I believe in the 1970’s they called it moisturizing cream—“ cream must be out of style! But Dove certainly isn’t.
The Dove brand …
