I am no expert on skin care but I have tried Dove Soap several times and found it does live up to the claims made by its manufacturer. Unlike most other soaps it comes in a very attractive small box. It is apparently made up of one quarter moisterizing cream and three quarters soap. As the advert says, ... Take the Dove 7 day test.. and the chances are you will find your skin is softer after using this soap. . It is I guess an ideal soap to try if you should unfortunately suffer from dry skin.
Dove has a nice rather flowery smell, lathers easily and is pure white or creamy in colour. It has a very soft texture but it dosent seem to last very long, maybe because it is so soft. It also has a most interesting sort of sculptured shape.
If you have dry skin I would certainly recommend you give Dove soap a try. It is a tad more expensive than many other soaps but it is widely available and is undeniably good for your skin.!
