only soap I use

I'm a gel body wash user but when out of that I always have these bars on hand and I get them when they're on special for 4 packs or more. As they do come in value packs. Also when I run out face wash this is my go to.

The packaging is firm and if in need to travel you can use it for this if you don't have a traveling soap box. It's durable and simple with and elegance of gold and blue.

I love the molding of this soap,making it easy to hold during use. The dove picture,engraving gives it some elegance also a bonus and it lasts on the soap almost all the way to the end of the soap.

The scent is a delicate deliciously fresh scent. It is soft to skin and feels soothing moisturizing.

Lathers up nice and when using on your face it's non irritating especially if you mistakingly get it in your eye.

Definitely different to other bars. The size is also smaller then average soap bars, this doesn't matter as it's long lasting....

This is definitely value for money when purchased in packs and leaves your skin feeling clean, soft and moist.

The bar leaves no residue in the shower either in the soap dish or the shower floor. It dries up after use and simply waits for next use. It doesn't change it's shape until the bitter end.

I'm also teaching my teen boy to use this on his face during shower just to prep for those up coming skin battles that occur in your teens.

Dove love

All time favourite

I love this beauty bar (aka soap)...its the best thing for sensitive type skin. Its creamy texture and lovely scent is worth every cent. I use it daily and never had any problems with it...I go through about 1 per week (2 showers a day) so its good value for money.

Tips: Stock up on this babies when the The Warehouse has a sale...usually 99c each. Another tip when buying in bulk, place one in your towel cupboard, your linen cupboard and in your drawers (until you need to use it)...its leaves a beautiful scent and keeps your clothing/linen items smelling nice and fresh.

Favourite supermarket soap

I was always a shower gel person as I hate the "squeaky clean" feeling soap gives you after using it. So after this was given to me it sat in my drawer until one day I ran out of shower gel and had no other option and I was in love! My nana loved dove soap years ago and I wished I used it long before now.

I love the shape of the bar it's big and curved so holding it and cleaning is easy peasy. I love the scent of all the dove soaps I've used the original one the Shea butter and more recently the cucumber one which is my favourite and its super cheap at the warehouse $1 a bar

The scent lingers on my skin for a good couple of hours after I have showered (as long as I don't moisturiser of course) it leaves my skin feeling clean and fresh. I do find I have to moisturise after using it just because I do have naturally thirsty skin and I don't think it has added moisturiser. I like how it doesn't strip my skin of moisture like some other soaps can. I have also noticed with this soap how long it lasts definitely a lot longer than a lot of others it also doesn't go all mushy if it sits in the shower. Definitely my favourite supermarket soap

Used once and I'm hooked

Bought these from The Warehouse and got 2 bars for $2 which I thought was amazingly cheap for dove products! First thing I noticed was the beautiful smell! Secondly I love that the soap is a curved shape instead of just a bar like most other soaps. Thirdly I love how soft this soap keeps my skin, unlike other soaps that strip my skin and leave it dry, I find dove actually moisturises my skin and leaves it silky smooth.

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.

Good basic soap

While taking stock of my beauty cupboard (one of my favourite hobbies), I found a mini box of this soap, which I think was a supermarket freebie during a Beauty Week. I was almost out of liquid hand soap so have been using this instead.

As a hand soap, it works really well. It lathers up quickly and cleans my hands well. I find it slightly drying, but that may be due to the change in seasons and my hands being predisposed to dryness anyway. The mild scent and 1/4 moisturiser is great for dry and reactive skins.

I have not used this on my body or face as I prefer the portability of liquid products for these. I would consider repurchasing if it was available in a liquid, as I find it tiresome to lather the soap and once you get close to the end the little soap slither is hard to work with.

A good basic soap but I prefer liquid hand soap over bars.

Must have!

This is the one and only soap bar I will have in my house. I love how smooth it feels on my skin. I love the fact that it doesn't make my skin feel dry and tough after I wash it off which is how most other soaps seem to leave my skin feeling. I use this soap as a all over body soap for in the shower. It lathers up really nicely and makes it really easy to shave. Great soap and would buy again.

Love it

Dove beauty bar is a family favourite. It not only smells good but makes my skin feel soft, clean and moisturised. Always have these stocked in the bathroom.

Lovely soap

I do quite often use body wash but when I use a soap this is the one I pick. It has a gorgeous scent and lathers up really well. I feel so clean and refreshed after my shower. It is 1/4 moisturizer in it so you feel soft and moistured. I have found you have to be careful not to leave it in the water as it can kind of melt away.

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.
