Transcript

Cool shit, I did for Dove. I did a whole new merch line because they needed merch this clean. Starting with this tier shirt, where the logo's made out of soap bubbles. This hoodie that says you're beautiful backwards, so when you wear it in the mirror, you read it to yourself because you are beautiful. And the matching hat, a gold necklace of the dove logo, a pool floatie in the shape of the classic beauty bar, the rhinestone crop tier. That also comes in a tank top, the you look beautiful today hoodie, a vegan leather toiletry case, and the vegan leather purse that looks like the beauty bar, embossed crewneck that looks like the beauty bar, and the matching hat, car air fresheners, and all the most iconic Dove scents, and a tier shirt that says Beautiful looks good on you. The full Dove collection. Comment which designs you'd want.
