Gentle Dove

I got given this as a freebie in with my online grocery order so I was pleasantly surprised to receive this as opposed to the usual random items you receive that you will probably never use .

Packaging wise this was nothing special just a cardboard style box in the standard Dove blue and white.

Fragrance – I actually really love the smell of this soap, it’s a really fresh clean moisturising type smell I normally enjoy fragrance free but this is the kind of smell that makes you feel clean and fresh after using it.

I generally use my shampoo bar as my body bar as well so I like a really gentle non irritating soap for my sensitive skin.

This felt lovely on my skin, it didn’t dry it out , lathered up nicely and left my skin feeling nice and clean and smooth afterwards.

This caused no irritations or problems for me and I will continue to use this.

I probably wouldn’t change from using my solid shampoo bar to this as its more convenient for me to do so but if you’re looking for a gentle alternative to body wash I would recommend it 

Dove beauty.

I used this for many years growing up as my mum was loyal to Dove. I still use this on occasion when I run out of shower gel. I switched to shower gels a few years ago because I have dry skin and I find them less irritating on my skin.

Dove beauty bars are packaged in a cardboard box. The soap is white, oval shaped and has Dove engraved on it.

It lathers well and has a very creamy texture which makes for a pleasant showering experience. It leaves my skin feeling clean. It also has a beautiful distinctive scent that is not too overpowering. Although Dove claim it's contains 1/4 moisturing lotion I find it quite drying on my skin hence why I gave it only 3 stars.

Tips: Moisturiser after using to prevent dry skin.

Dove beauty bar- Only i could use in the house

Buying dove used to be a luxury for me as its quite pricey but have now switched to body wash. It comes in a simple box, nice soap detailing, it did leave my skin feels smooth and moisturized, only i could use the soap as it made my daughter get rashes and i stopped buying it all together.

Nice soap but had better.

I'm a shower gel kinda gal, but I couldn't resist buying Dove soap when I walked into Warehouse a few weeks back and they were selling them for $2 each. I purchased eight bars and have only used two. The smell is nice and soft and lathers so well. It feels creamy when you lather yourself as though your moisturising. A couple of issues I have are that the bar runs down very quickly and my skin does tend to feel dry afterwards, so I have to pile on the cream moisturises to compensate. But otherwise I do feel clean and smell nice and have six bars to get through.

Dove Original Soap

I like the creaminess of this soap and unfortunately that's where it ends for me. My daughter loves this and uses it on her face for acne which does help her. I on the other hand sneeze when I go into the bathroom as the scent is very strong so I bought a soap dish to keep it in as a compromise. I will purchase this again but only for my daughter.

Tips: Popular amongst teens for acne.

It's really only a soap

To be honest, my sister and I only really got this product because it was a dollar at the warehouse. I thought it had a lovely smell, but I wasn't like blown away with it.

I saw the retail price on here, and I was shocked. Six dollars for a soap? Nuh uh. This is just a soap after all, yes it was very nice to my skin, and smelled like heaven...But seriously? Most soaps in the supermarket do that for a LOT BETTER VALUE.

Overall, I felt this product was good, but not amazing. A bit overrated if you ask me.

I can't get over the smell

Am I the only one? I don't know what it is but I really can't handle the smell of this product. Otherwise it's perfectly fine, but I could never use it regularly as I find the smell so unpleasant.

Far too expensive for what it is

I'm not a fan of anything in the Dove range and the soap is no exception. I really think the brand is so popular due to good marketing.

I find the smell to be a bit too strong and not actually pleasant. it's kind old ladyish really. I find you go through it too quickly as it lathers up A LOT and gets gluggy if left near water. I don't find other soaps "strip my skin" so haven't noticed an improvement after using this bar. So, no, I don't think it does what it says it will do at all. It's also far too expensive for a product that doesn't last all that long. Would only use again if I was given it, would not actually spend money on it.

Tips: Keep it out of the shower in between uses so it doesn't go all gluggy

Dove Beauty Bar

I recently tried this dove beauty bar soap. I brought it on special from the warehouse at a really good price. It smelt really nice and fresh and made my skin smooth, unfortunately a couple of days after using this soap my skin became very itchy which I think was a reaction to the soap so I will not be repurchasing.

Not for me

I am a shower gel or foam kind of girl so I don't usually purchase bars of soap as I find them very drying on my already dry and sensitive skin.

I decided to purchase this on a whim as it is advertised to be a "1/4 moisturising cream" and all that jazz so I thought I might actually like it...well I didn't.

The scent is nice light and fresh, it lathers well, feels nice and creamy and definitely cleans the skin, but, I still found this quite drying and found it left my skin feeling tight and dry after use, which isn't ideal.

I wouldn't recommend this to others with a similar skin type and definitely wont be repurchasing this in the future.
