Everyone gets a bad hair day once in a while. Those mornings when there's just no fighting that frizz or your straight locks look lacklustre and lank. Let us help you make the most of your hair's natural beauty.
Keep poker faced
Stamina, nerves of steel, an expressionless face and an ability to read minds – they're all useful qualities in the high-pressure environment of the poker table. A sweaty armpit can reveal too much; it's the last thing you want as the dealer announces, "Your action, sir."

Hair blowing and drying tips
By perfecting the art of the blow dry, you can tame your tresses in minutes.
Fragrances to suit your mood
Gorgeous aromas can help lift your mood, improve self-confidence and make you feel top of the world. While the ingredients of famous perfumes are usually top secret, their 'notes' come from flowers and spices you probably know.
Purify your skin
It's a fact of life that as we age our skin changes. It becomes visibly thinner, drier and begins to lose some of its tone and elasticity. A regular cleansing routine is one of the key steps to keeping facial skin looking young and healthy.
Love your hair
Fashion is fickle, but we've all followed it at some point, from frilly bell bottoms to velvet hot pants. And our hair is certainly no different.
Big hair is back – so turn up the volume
Big is beautiful. Whether it's Elvis-style quiffs, rock chick locks, or funky flicks – it's all about volume. And we've got some tips to help you keep your movie star style in shape with minimum effort.
Take the weight off your feet
Taking care of our hands and faces is part of most people’s daily skincare routine. But feet need extra attention too.
Care for coloured hair
Coloured hair needs special attention to look its very best. While your highlights, lowlights or tints look fabulous when you strut out of the salon, weeks later that initial glow can fade, leaving your locks looking lacklustre.
Your skin is amazing
It's an incredibly complex and miraculous creation of nature. It's our waterproof barrier. It's a defence against disease. It's how we sense and adjust to our surroundings. It's constantly growing and replacing itself. It stretches, yet retains its form. And when we're hurt, it heals itself.
Beauty has no age limit
The idea behind Dove's new range for women over 50 is all in the name: pro·age. It's proud not to be anti-ageing, instead it's all about looking great for your age, and being proud of it.
Find your perfect pair of jeans
Although jeans are one of our favourite items of clothing, we’ve all struggled at times to find the 'perfect' pair. One of the easiest ways to buy a pair of jeans that look fantastic on, is to choose the right style for your body shape.
Sports & the skin
Getting out there and participating in sport is essential to looking and feeling great. As you get fitter and your technique improves, it's also guaranteed to help you get more out of life. But there are drawbacks. Your body, and your skin in particular, can suffer if you over-exert. Follow these tips from Dove to avoid such pitfalls.
Why the Axe effect works
The scientists behind Axe have hard proof that smelling good really can help men win in the dating game.

Countdown to beauty
You only have an hour to go before a night out, so put aside some 'me' time to pamper yourself. Even if you're on the go, it's the difference between looking good and feeling beautiful.
Get a sparkling smile
Gorgeous dresses, slinky heels or a sharp, slick suit can all help you look great - but there's no better accessory to make you really sparkle than a dazzling smile.
Evolve with Dove
Dove has set itself the target of raising the self-esteem of a million young people around the world by 2008. And the new 'Dove Evolution' ad in North America has become a focal point for the debate on real beauty.
