Giveaway: Smooth Skin with NIVEA Skin Firming Body Lotion

Who doesn't want softer, smoother skin--especially during beach and bare leg season? As a proud member of the NIVEA Body Digital Influencer Network, Everything She Wants was invited to take NIVEA's #DareToBare Challenge. During the two-week challenge, I used NIVEA Skin Firming Hydration Body Lotion with Q10.

Me in my Shopbop dress in Miami.

Even before I tested the firming lotion, I overheard my hairdresser singing the praises of the product and how it works wonders for "women of a certain age." The magic ingredient is Co-Enzyme Q10, a substance that's found naturally in the body and helps convert food into energy. It's also a powerful antioxidant that fights free radicals that contribute to the aging process. NIVEA's Hydra IQ Technology Co-Enzyme Q10 Complex Glycerin formula provides all day moisturizing; tighter, more resilient skin; and softer, smoother skin texture.

I could see and feel a difference in my skin right away, and after using the lightweight lotion for two weeks my legs are touchably-soft and more toned and taut. My husband noticed the difference, too! To flaunt my summer-ready legs, NIVEA treated me to a new summer frock from ShopBop, which I proudly modeled on vacation in Miami.

Since the #DareToBare Challenge has made me a believer, one lucky Everything She Wants reader will win a 13.5 oz. bottle of NIVEA Skin Firming Hydration Body Lotion with Q10.

Conway Discount Clothing Chain Closing in New York City

(Tracy E. Hopkins) It's the end of a budget shopping era. Conway discount stores are closing in New York City . As of this weekend, a sign on the sole Herald Square location (34th Street btwn 7th and 8th Ave) says the store will close in "7 Days." Before I relocated to the Big Apple, I was introduced to the discount chain while on a bus trip from Baltimore. I recall the first time I saw Conway's signature pink bags carried by hurried shoppers in midtown. And Miss Foster, the trip organizer and a bargain hunter from way back, took me to the store for the first time. Conway store in the Fulton Mall./Tracy E. Hopkins When I moved here in 1994, my love affair with Conway continued. I furnished my first apartment with discount knick-knacks and home goods from the store. And much to my chagrin, in hindsight, I curated most of my wardrobe for my first full-time job from the long-shuttered 42nd Street and Third Avenue store. One regretful ensemble: Lime green and
