“After a hot shower your skin will love Dove Body Milk.”

The challenge: Millions of body lotion samples are never opened; they remain glued to ads in magazines, disappear inside handbags, or get thrown in the bin. What could we do to make sure this does not happen to Dove Body Milk?

The idea: Catch the customers when they’re naked: in hotel bathrooms! Therefore we developed a mailing for hotel managers and sent them the „Dove Magic Mirror Marker“: They were to write a magic Dove message for their guests on the bathroom mirror. The marker uses a de-mister fluid that the writing appears when the mirror steams up. A real moment of surprise and exactly the moment to give Dove Body Milk a try.
