Dove Beauty Bar

We've used this soap on and off for many years we tend to give other soaps a go but always go back to this one. I just love the smell when you walk in the bathroom and you can instantly tell its in there but still not an overbearing smell on the body after you've used it. Now usually I don't use soap all over my body as I don't like the drying effect soap can have but this would be the only one that I can that doesn't make my skin all scratchy afterwards and I feel it also moisterises aswell. I still tend to use a body wash all over and I would never use on my face. It is a slightly larger size soap but it doesn't slip out of your hands like other soaps can. I do find the kids spend more time actually cleaning themselves when we have this soap in the shower lol

You use a body wash after using the soap? Or you meant body lotion/moisturizer?

I ALWAYS have this in my house!

It is the only solid soap bar I buy! It leaves your skin feeling so soft, smooth and moisturised. It is gentle on sensitive skin and smells great! I cannot fault this soap at all, it is better than any others ive tried. When its wet it foams to a creamy milky type of substance which makes it easy to apply, almost like a watery moisturiser. I love dove beauty bars and would definitely recommend them to everyone reading this review.

Tips: Buy in BULK to get these at a discounted price, and trust me you will not want to buy any other brand after using this soap! :)

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.

Sensitive skin

I have very sensitive skin. The dove bars are just body butter to me and dont dry my skin out like normal soaps do.

I love the smell and the fact that it doesnt react with my skin.

Im a daily user and use for my whole family. Im not to much a fan of a bar of soap however this is the only soap I have found that doesnt make my skin really dry in the winter time. I find it hydrating and its a great bonus to have a range of different kinds to choose from in the bars.

Great for the young to old. I find the packaging also isnt to bad on the eyes.

Dove soap

I would argue that this is better than any facial cleanser for fighting acne. My mother used to hate when I would purchase multiple amounts and types of facial cleansers because of the chemicals being put on my skin. She would always tell me to use soap. But as we all know soap dries out. So I tried dove beauty bar, which has lotion in it. Ahh I love it. It lathers up nice, thick and creamy. Makes your face smell amazing and baby soft, and the best part - fights acne! Perfect for sensitive skin people like me!!

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

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.

I agree it is lovely on your face but it is not harsh like the old soaps.

Great family soap

Who doesn't love the feeling of soft hydrated skin? This is a great all-round family soap. I am personally not fan of solid bar soaps and prefer liquid one but this keeps the husbands skin from being too dry, and is great on the kids as well. It acts as a regular soap should... lathers but doesn't over dry, leaves it feeling balanced and not greasy.

Occasionally we shift away from this brand only to come back to it... and now I buy the liquid version for in the shower as well.

Holy grail for smoothing skin

When I say holy grail, it means it definitely worked wonders on my skin. Someone with keratosis pilaris, we are always in the hunt for products that will help moisturize our skin while considering that it should also be mild and will not cause more irritation. This cream bar does not only make my skin so smooth, it also helps me lighten those patches of pigmentation and discoloration. It's definitely a must have for daily use.

Tips: Mild scents means less irritation

Moisture

Lovely soap. It has a lovely soft clean scent. It makes a lovely thick creamy bubble that feels nice on the skin. I have used it on my face when I've run out of cleanser and it was non irritating and didn't dry me out.

I used to use Dove for years but have stopped using soap and had forgotten how much I used to love this.
