- Camay
Camay is the name of a
scent ed hand and bodysoap , made byProcter & Gamble . It was first introduced in1926 and marketed as a "white, pure soap for women," as many soaps of the time were colored to mask impurities. Camay's slogan for many years was "Camay: the soap for beautiful women." It was later replaced with "For your most beautiful complexion at every age."Camay is still produced although many stores in the
United States do not sell it anymore, as it has fallen out of popularity in recent years. Since it is still sold abroad, in the U.S. it is often found at immigrant-oriented ethnic stores. For many years, Camay was a major sponsor of the soap opera "Search for Tomorrow ".Camay started gaining popularity in Eastern Europe with 12 new scents being introduced starting from 2004.
