personally i hate dove beauty bars, dove advertises itself to be very hydrating and makes your skin soft. in my opinion this product is very drying and makes a barrier between your skin and water, personally i wuld never use this product agin results may be different for some.

Even though this soap is advertised as a PH balanced, good for all skin type and gentler type of soap it just isn't especially if you have dry to combination skin.
It felt like I had taken a pair of bulldog clips and clamped my skin really tightly behind my ears after rinsing this soap off of my skin, even of my body whilst showering or in the bath this leaves my skin parched.
I’ve had this in my household for years but I could never get it to lather properly at all and it had a chemical smell that lingered I found distasteful I prefer now coconut or lavender soaps now
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.
I do buy this a lot even though my rating is not high. I find it drys my skin out and leaves my face super tight. So I find myself rinsing with cold water and applying a moisturizer straight away. I do love the smell and it's really great for my daughter's acne prone skin. Affordable and lasts a long time.
Tips: Keep in a soap case so you are the only one using it.
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
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.
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.
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.
And the whole Dove line while you are at it. There is something in the Dove line that my skin cannot handle even touching the bar will cause me to break out in contact dermatitis. The ultimate star of this line though for me in causing the worst reaction is the deodorant - 12 months of antibiotics to cure the skin infection it caused me I still have scars from the damage. Dove soap is evil!
Tips: Many people actually like this product - my grandma swears by it and has amazing skin and she always has bars of it in her bathroom so it must be good for some.
