Kickin’ It: 2015 Governors Ball Music Festival With Dove

2015-gov-ball

This past Friday I was invited by beauty brand Dove to attend and cover the 2015 Governors Ball Music Festival. Being my second time at the festival, I was looking forward to enjoying live performances (folks like Future, Rae Sremmurd and Drake performed on Friday!) and also enjoying a day out with some of my good friends like Jessica and Andrea of Glamazons Blog, Ty of Gorgeous In Grey and Dana of HuffPost Beauty.

The Dove team invited us to hang out with them all day in their cabana soaking up the festivities and also getting the opportunity to learn about their latest products including the new Dove go fresh Revitalize collection, scented with mandarin and fragrant tiare flower.

I’ve been a fan of Dove products for years so it’s exciting to see that they’re constantly innovating and introducing new products for their fans to grow with and love. We learned about advancements they’ve made in their formulations and how Dove’s been proven to improve skin’s elasticity.

Dove treated us to a day of fun activities, giveaways and also some pretty amazing accessories like flash tattoos which I’m now officially obsessed with.

Why can’t real tattoos come in gold and silver? I feel like it might be nice to live like with metallic shimmer, no?

They also treated us to mini manicures. I opted for hot pink, because, I’m me. And I live for hot pink. The color went really well with my bold jewels and prints that day.

It was a big hair kinda day at Governor’s Ball for me. I got crochet braids for the first time and had more Marley hair on my head than I probably needed. My hair literally overpowered all my #selfies that day. It was a moment, honey.

Between the cocktails, the amazing live performances and the scents of mandarin and tiare flower, I was pretty much in my zone all day.

And to top it all off – we got flower crowns! You guys know I adore a flower crown. These orange and white ones custom made for Dove were so adorable. We felt like part of a special hippie tribe with our matching crowns.

Best day ever with Dove. Special thanks to them for sending me to Governor’s Ball Festival for a day. Even though I’ve been to the festival in past years, this year was incredibly special and I have them to thank for that.
