Dove the Budget Beauty Bar

I used to use this in the shower on a daily basis. It made my skin extra soft and smooth and the bar lasted me awhile. I don't use it in the shower now because I switched to natural products but if I had to go back to using a bar of soap in the shower this would be it. I highly recommend this to anyone who's looking for a cheap soap that leaves your skin silky smooth. It has a nice creamy lather and like almost all Dove products it smells nice as well.

Tips: Buy this when on special. And store in a soap dish that has a tray or raised bumps or something to let it dry otherwise it can get kind of slimy in texture.

dove hmmmm

Did I like this soap? Yes I definitely like dove as a soap it feels nice on the skin.How ever I do get eczema an strong perfume soaps tend to make it worse so I was hoping with dove saying its moisturising an soap free it would stop me breaking out but unfortunately it didn't. Still I would use it again cause it does seem gentle on the skin.

DOVE

A nice smelling bar of soap that is gentle so you could use on the face as well as body if you wanted to. creamy although I find that the bar of soap shrinks faster / is used up qucker than other soaps. It is cheap for a face or body cleanser but if you were just looking for a basic soap for the bathroom it isnt cheap as you can get several bars of soap for that price. This does not dry your skin out which is nice the lather is creamy and it feels somewhat of a luxury. Dove make one for sensitive skin too and many use dove soap bars as a facial cleanser or for thier body wash.

Leaves skin feeling lovely

Dove Beauty bars feel like they have been around forever. My current one is a smaller-than-normal size as it was a freebie, but I have used the full size before (and the smaller one is still generous).

Dove Beauty Bars come in a white and blue box that has practically become iconic. I dare say everyone has seen it, most people have bought it, and most homes probably have had (or still have) one knocking about in the bathroom cupboard. They are inexpensive and - when compared to standard supermarket soap - far superior to most brands.

The soap cake is an elegant, curved shape, in a soft white, embossed with the Dove logo.

The soap lathers slightly, but cleans as well as any other soap on the market.

Where this soap comes into it's own is with how your hands (or body if you're that way inclined; I'm not) feel post-use. Dove claim that 1/4 of this product is moisturising lotion - and I quite believe it. I only use this for my hands, and they are left soft, hydrated, and without the tight, dry feeling standard soap can often cause, even though I have normal, non sensitive skin on my hands (apart from occasional eczema/dermatitis flareups, which this soothes nicely).

After you dry your hands there is no need to apply a lotion, which is a nice time/money saver. Your hands are left scented with the classic Dove fragrance. This is where this product lost points for me as I'm not a huge fan of the fragrance. It would be amazing if they made the range with the same scents as their lovely body washes. I find the soap to be quite strongly scented and it's not my favourite (although I don't hate it) scent out there, so it usually makes me reach for something with less benefits but a better scent.

Dover

This soap is awesome I use it on every part of my body INCLUDDING my face, I know people say using soap on your face is a big NO NO Because its harsh and drys out your skin which is correct but I have a combination skin type between oily and dry although this product is still harsh on my skin like any soap its also gentle at the same time, it thoroughly cleanses my skin removing dirt and assisting with black head removal but it gives the skin some moisture at the same time. I either breakout with facial cleansers or they don't do anything for me but Id definitely say this is a go to for me. It works, its great and Its a go to when all else is failing for me.

Tips: Always moisturise afterwards if you do use this on your face, actually moisturise every where.

Not as I remember!

Years ago when I first tried it I loved it but I recently bought one again after thinking oh its been a while since I used this.

The feel of it is amazing, its soft, it lathers really nicely and leaves me feeling really clean and smooth. BUT I didnt like the scent at all, it reminded me of baby powder and stuffiness, I could bear it but I wouldnt reach for it again, that combined with price for 2 soaps has put me off. Unfortunate because Dove is usually a trusted brand I like.

Dove. A basic in my household

Okay before I even start this review, I'll tell you that I am a shower gel girl 95% of the time, and soap doesn't really have a place in my shower unless it's lush. The only other soap i consider using is this one.

This soap comes in a wee cardboard box, the soap is a smooth oval shape with dove printed onto the top of the soap.

This soap smells amazing, it just smells fresh and clean and that's a smell I love!! I know, who would think a soap would smell clean, but this just has the best clean linen type of fragrance mmmm.

I personally find this soap lathers really nicely. It creates a gentle lather which i really like and when your using it.. it smells even better if that were possible!

I find this soap doesn't dry my skin out, but it definitely doesn't make it feel more moisturized either so that's probably a side of this product that doesn't meet up to its claims. Other than that it is a nice basic soap to have in your home.

This is the only product from Dove that i make a conscious effort to repurchase.I buy it from the warehouse when they are $1 ... because that's a bargain. Overall, this soap does the job and smells amazing. Its not an amazing soap, but I would repurchase.

A classic for a reason!

A budget friendly superstar. You really can’t beat the price. The fragrance hasn’t changed - I love the familiar scent. Does what is says it does on the packet - super moisturising. I personally wouldn’t use it on my face these days but if you don’t have any issues with your skin I would go for it.

Tips: Soaps up well with a loofah

Nice lather

Not as harsh as other bar soaps. Has a nice lather. Leaves skin feeling moisturized. Each bar lasts a good amount of time.
