"Brazil is all about smooth moves, vivacious sounds and beautiful skin," says Scherzinger. "That's why I'm thrilled to be recording such a fun, Brazilian remake of my favorite Duran Duran song for Caress. Just like the new Caress Brazilian body wash, it's sexy, spirited and will inspire women to unleash the enchantment of Brazil."

Users are encouraged to create their own music video to the song for a chance to win a trip to Rio, an iPod loaded with Brazilian music or tons of beauty products from the Caress line.
