Athena Club's New Scent Bring Golden Hour to Life
Warm, Comforting, and Deeply Nostalgic
Summer is right around the corner, and with it comes shaving season. Unfortunately, that also means a whole new set of skincare concerns and irritation.
Let’s face it, summer may be fun, but my girl is full of red flags. It’s stressful battling with razor burn, chafing, and a constant fear of smelling bad.
However, Athena Club has become my one stop shop for summer body care.
Their five blade razors are not only aesthetically pleasing in a range of bright colors, but they work gently on my skin alongside any of their shaving products. Choose between a Shave Foam, Fluffy Butter, Whipped Cream, or Glossy Oil based on you skin’s needs and you’re guaranteed a smooth shave for even the most sensitive skin.
Plus, they even have a mini razor which is ideal for on the go. Sometimes I even pack the mini in my purse, because there is nothing worse than realizing you missed a spot while you’re already out and about.
However, what I am really excited about using this summer is their new Golden Vanilla line of body care.
Working and commuting in NYC during the summer months has been compared to living in actual hell. It’s hot, muggy, sticky, and you cannot escape the sweat that comes with it. However, Athena Club has introduced me to two different all over body deodorants that work overtime to combat even the worst heatwaves.
The Full Body Deo Dry-Spray promises 24 hours of whole body odor defense. Most importantly, it’s a great way to prevent the inevitable chafing we all know too well. Safe to wear with any clothing, the spray leaves no white cast or residue, making it easy to carry with you and reapply on the go. And of course it is talc, aluminum and paraben free.
The All Over Deo is a standard style roll on deodorant, with 48 hours of protection. This product is great for everyday wear, even on your stinkiest days. It goes on clear, doesn’t crumble or pill, and won’t stain your clothes. The aluminum and baking soda-free formula uses tapioca starch and diatomaceous earth to absorb extra moisture and keep sensitive skin happy and fresh.
While both of these products are available in a few different scents, the Golden Vanilla scent is the real star of the show. It’s warm, sweet, and nostalgic. I was instantly transported back to my middle school days where my signature scent was Bath & Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar.
It’s a mesmerizing fragrance, and my favorite way to experience it has been in the shower with the Athena Club Skin Replenishing Body Wash. This shea butter-infused cream transforms into a rich lather, dissolving dirt and leaving skin enveloped in lasting hydration. Plus, you emerge smelling deliciously golden.
For me, vanilla is a scent I love to incorporate into summer. It’s like the embodiment of a fresh tan, warm skin, and the feeling of sun on your face. Nothing makes me feel sexier than a product that leaves me dripping in liquid gold.
And somehow, that is exactly what Athena Club was able to do with the Golden Vanilla line of products. Even on my hottest, sweatiest days, they have created a way to let me feel fresh and sexy without feeling like I am lathering myself in chemicals. The scents blend effortlessly with my coconut and tropical inspired scented sunscreens, and let me bring the beach to the office with me.
It’s like they bottled up Golden Hour and made it available 24/7- and I just can’t get enough.
