Skincare Tips from Dove’s Expert for Fall
Fall starts, and it’s the time when skin gets itchy!
Listen to Dove Dermatologist, Dr. Mona Gohara, weighs in on the best practices for skincare in the shower.
She said: “
- We are all super busy multitasking, so find a product that moisturizes and cleanses at the same time.
- Avoid harsh cleansers that can strip away moisture. I recommend using Dove Body Wash or Shower Foam because they’re made up of gentle cleansers and actually deposit moisture into the skin.
- Add moisture to your skin, as it is one of the most important tenants of skin health – it leaves the skin soft, strengthens the skin barrier, and can even reduce the appearance of fine lines!
Yes, the two products from Dove she mentioned come with amazing solutions, the Dove Shower Foam, and the Dove Body Washes.
Featuring the brand’s gentlest, sulfate-free cleansers, Dove Body Wash and Shower Foam provide the care skin needs. Experience 250 pumps of soft, airy lather with Dove Shower Foam or leave skin feeling softer and smoother after just one shower with Dove Body Wash.
Formulated with the brand’s unique NutriumMoisture technology and gentlest cleansers, these two products can serve as a sanctuary with the gentlest and most caring products, no matter a morning or nighttime shower you prefer.
Give it a try!

The Princess of 42nd Street
It was a great night at the Museum of Sex on September 13th to celebrate the launch of the memoir The Princess of 42nd Street: Surviving My Childhood as the Daughter of Time Square’s King of Porn by Romola Hodas with Elizabeth Ridley.
Author Romola Hodas Pens Her Inspiring Memoir About Growing Up
as the Daughter of the Man Who Created New York City’s Pornography Empire
After surviving a chaotic childhood, Romola Hodas, the eldest daughter of Times Square’s “King of Porn,” recounts her chaotic childhood amid the turmoil of publicly growing up as the daughter of the man who almost single-handedly built New York City’s pornography and adult entertainment empire from the 1960s to the 1980s before his spectacular and public fall from grace. Her memoir, The Princess of 42nd Street: Surviving My Childhood as the Daughter of Times Square’s King of Porn by Romola Hodas and Elizabeth Ridley (Riverdale Avenue Books, September 2018) tells the tale of her childhood publicly for the first time.
Behind the salacious headlines, Marty Hodas’ family paid a terrible price. In her shockingly honest, no-holds-barred memoir, Romola describes hanging out as a child in her father’s porn shops on 42nd Street and meeting the eclectic clientele who frequented the stores, making friends with the girls who performed live sex acts on stage, and spying on her parents’ sex orgies and crazy all-night swinger parties. Romola relates, in moving detail, how she cared for her three younger siblings when her brilliant, bipolar mother broke with reality, and how she survived verbal, physical, and emotional abuse; a year in reform school; her father’s three stints in prison; two kidnapping attempts by the mob (one while at summer fat camp); and how her baby brother, Jarrett, actually was briefly kidnapped by mobsters wanting to send Marty Hodas a clear, unambiguous message.
“My story has its darker moments, but it is also infused with humor and hope. Hope always burned brightly inside me, even during the darkest of times,” said Romola Hodas. “My book is provocative, but also inspiring.”
For all its darkness, The Princess of 42nd Street is, at its heart, an uplifting and inspirational story of how one young woman overcame incredible odds to become a successful businesswoman who now devotes her life to helping others. Raw, unflinching, and devoid of self-pity, The Princess of 42nd Street is a one-of-a-kind story.

Wild Earth Introduces First Dog Treats From Koji Protein
Veterinarian-developed Good Protein Dog Snacks support healthy digestion with prebioticsBerkeley, Calif. – Wild Earth, Inc., a startup reinventing pet food with biotech, today introduced its first product, a dog treat made with koji (Aspergillus oryzae) – an eco-friendly, renewably sourced member of the fungi kingdom used in the culinary world by some of the world’s best chefs.
Wild Earth’s Good Protein Dog Snacks with Koji satisfy foodie dogs with koji’s umami-rich flavor, whole protein containing all essential ten amino acids, and health benefits such as omega fatty acids, digestion-boosting enzymes, and prebiotics to support gastrointestinal microbiomes. Only 15 calories each, Good Protein Dog Snacks include other wholesome ingredients like peanut butter, pumpkin, and oat. As a clean cultured protein, Wild Earth’s koji avoids the risks of meat-based food and treats, which can contain traces of antibiotics, growth hormones, or other contaminants.
Nutritious, culinary, and sustainable, Good Protein Dog Snacks contain:● Prebiotics to support healthy digestion● Omega 3/6/9s for healthy skin and coat● Veterinarian-developed formula● No animal ingredients● No antibiotics or hormones● No artificial preservatives, flavors, or colors● No corn or soyA five-ounce bag retails for $12.99 at Wild Earth’s online store, and currently ships free.“I worry about the health risks of sugar- and salt-filled treats, both as a veterinarian and founder of the Association for Pet Obesity Prevention, and as a dog lover too,” said Wild Earth chief veterinary officer Dr. Ernie Ward. “People can feel good about offering Good Protein Dog Snacks with Koji, which are a nutritious option for our dogs, our environment, and for eliminating the suffering of farm animals.”“We need new and alternative proteins to feed a growing global pet population, and also to minimize the environmental impact of feeding that growing population,” said Wild Earth CEO Ryan Bethencourt. “Koji is ideal for dogs based on its nutritional profile and sustainability, and used by Michelin-star chefs to add gourmet flavor, so our dog taste testers loved these treats.”“Wild Earth’s new alternative protein product is such a great example of providing consumers another choice for their pet’s nourishment, while being conscious of the environment,” said Ben Jacobs, Head of Ventures at Mars Petcare.Wild Earth cultivates koji, an ancient Asian protein, in fermentation tanks, and uses proprietary technology to optimize it for nutritional content, texture, and flavor. Because it is produced safely in a laboratory, not a slaughterhouse, it lacks risks associated with animal-based proteins such as contamination, and reduces the toll on the planet – 25-30 percent of meat’s environmental impact in the U.S. is attributed to pet food. Wild Earth’s koji dry food for dogs is scheduled for release in 2019.About Wild EarthLike food innovators creating cultured meats for human consumption, biotech startup Wild Earth is developing clean high-protein pet foods that are healthier, better for the environment, and more humane than conventional products. Wild Earth is built by pioneers in cellular agriculture led by chief science officer Ron Shigeta, Ph.D., an experienced business team led by chief executive officer Ryan Bethencourt, and Dr. Ernie Ward, known as “America’s Pet Advocate.” Investors include Felicis Ventures, Blue Horizon, Mars Petcare, VegInvest, Macro Ventures, Stray Dog Capital, Founders Fund, and Thiel Capital.
