Dove used to be my favorite soap for a long time and it is still a pretty good soap. However, I have noticed that my skin would get a bit dry after I used this soap. I had to put on lotion afterwards. Overall, good soap but can be a bit drying if you are using it on the long term.
I can’t even use this as a hand soap. But, it must be just me, because I know a lot of people love Dove. I’ll stick with my cheaper, more effective Ivory soap.
