We remain committed to redefining beauty, challenging stereotypes, and celebrating what makes women unique for the next 60 years,” he added. “We hope women everywhere will continue to #RaisetheBeautyBar with us by sharing on social media how they will redefine beauty.”

How will you #RaiseTheBeautyBar this year? Building confidence has been a constant journey in my life but the past 3 years have been significantly different. Now that my niece, Ava, is here, showing confidence in myself & who I am is more important than ever. She loves me just the way I am. I show confidence in who I am so she can find confidence in herself & do the same. I’m redefining beauty for her and because of her. That it’s her smile that lights up her face & a room. That it’s her goofiness that brings joy to others. That it’s her laugh that sounds like music. That it’s her heart that makes her beautiful. It’s time to #RaiseTheBeautyBar for her and all the other little ones watching. I love you Little Bug. You bring out the best in me. ♥️ The @Dove Beauty Bar has been an amazing confidence beauty booster for so many women over the years! Thank you, Dove, for showing me and others to love our curls, to be our beautiful selves & to remember that you never know how beautiful you are to others! #DovePartner #IBelieveTheChildrenAreOurFuture
