I stumbled upon this cleanser a number of years ago now, and no matter what other face wash I try I keep coming back to this one. It never ever irritates my skin and I love the scent.
My teenage daughter is now using it as well.
It is gentle and effective and leaves my skin feeling cleansed and fresh. Not dry or irritated.
I would recommend this for any age or skin type!

Lip Medex is by far the absolute best lip balm I have ever used. The versatility is amazing! I use it on my lips (duh!) But also on my nose to prevent chapping when I have a cold, and on my hands went they are wind burned from the frigid temperatures. My kids ask for my medex when their lips are sore because it works better than any of their fruity yummy lip balms. Simple the best at the best price! -

Calling this cream body yogurt is the perfect way to describe it - it is light, very movable and ultimately soaks right in leaving a non-filmy moisturized feeling and appearance on my skin. It is so light I would even feel comfortable using in on my face in an emergency if I forgot my face cream
I love this product - everything from the texture to the smell to the way it applies. I will definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a natural feeling light weight high moisture lotion. Thank you Chickadvisor for giving me the opportunity to try this lotion!

Usually I prefer very light body washes, however I found that this one, though very thick, washed/lathered nicely and rinsed off without leaving a film while still leaving my skin feeling moisturized. That is so important to me in the bright sun that summer is finally bringing.
I love the smell of this too, and love that it isn't harsh or stripping on my skin!

Dove Shower Foam Deep Moisture Foaming Body Wash is my FAVOURITE of their new body wash line. I want to let you know about a few key points for me:
1 - Scent - I found the scent of this wash to be a little perfume-y but not overwhelmingly so, it also smelled fresh, and left a nice light residual smell on my skin, much the same as a light moisturizer would
2 - Texture - Of the 3 Body Washes I have tested this one, though still very light, was the thickest of the 3. It felt lovely on my skin and was very easy to use. A little truly goes a long way with this wash
3 - Effectiveness - If we are talking about the job it does cleaning your body, 2 thumbs up for this (and the other scent options in this line); but, if you are talking moisturizing I would give this a big thumbs up as well. I left my shower feeling like I would not need to put on moisturizer right away as I usually do. What a score that is!!
On the whole I would recommend this product to friends, both with normal and dry skin, and I would also feel confident using this on my kids as I feel the quality is great!

Dove Shower Foam in the Shea Butter with Warm Vanilla Scent was effective but not my favourite to wash with. I want to let you know about a few key points for me:
1 - Scent - I found the Shea Butter with Warm Vanilla scent to be very overwhelming for me. I definitely will be staying away from this product based on the scent. It is very perfume-y and I think takes away from an otherwise great product.
2 - Texture - The Shea Butter with Warm Vanilla foaming body wash is a little heavier than the Cumcumber & Green Tea shower foam while keeping a very velvety feel; because of this I found that in a pinch I could actually sub it in for shaving cream without experiencing any razor burn which for me is a huge plus!
3 - Effectiveness - I found that this foaming body wash felt great on my skin, I left my showers feeling clean and lightly moisturized.
I would be able to recommend this to friends who do not have any scent issues or like perfume-y things however if the scent was lighter I would feel more comfortable suggesting this product.

Dove Shower Foam Cucumber & Green Tea Scent is a pleasure to use. I want to let you know about a few key points for me:
1 - Scent - I found the Cucumber & Green Tea scent to be very strong yet fresh, I was a little worried that it was going to be overwhelming after my shower on my skin but instead found that my skin felt refreshed and just had a light very fresh smell, I didn't feel like I was perfumed, but also didn't feel I would need perfume that day.
2 - Texture - The Cumcumber & Green Tea shower foam was velvety and light and easy to use both with a washcloth/loofah or just on it's own.
3 - Effectiveness - I don't generally get as dirty as my kids do, so I decided to test this out on them too, they loved it & I loved it cause they came up nice and clean without overly heavy scrubbing!
On the whole I would recommend this product to friends, it was easy on dry skin and lovely to use.

I had heard good things about Dove hair products, and have tried a few because of this. The Beautiful Care Shampoo is the only Dove shampoo I would consider using again.
I found it to be average as far as it's effectiveness, and the scent was quite nice, however I found that when using it my hair gets oily more quickly than with some other shampoos. I would be more inclined to use this in the colder months as to offset that.
I am positive this product would be great for someone with drier hair and that it would help remedy that if used often.

Vichy Aqualia Thermal Awakening Eye Balm was the third component of the skin regime I have had the pleasure of trying and reviewing. I've never really tried an eye balm before, this is new for me.
I would have to say that this is the least favourite of the products I have tried by Vichy. I like the way it feels when I first put it on, but don't really find a positive difference in the appearance of bags or tiredness in my eyes.
I did find for the first week or two that my eyes felt heavy all the time, very tired feeling and that in the morning I would have more of a crustiness to my eyes, they felt mildly irritated. To deal with this I reduced the amount of balm I was using and moved it away from my eye some to accommodate for the discomfort. This worked well and I can use it without ill effect now.
I will continue to use it for the foreseeable future and continue to monitor whether there is an improvement in the appearance of my eyes. I hope to be able to return and add a more positive review of the Eye Balm as I have found the other Vichy Aqualia Thermal products to be excellent.

I have had the pleasure of using Vichy Aqualia Thermal Serum for the past few weeks and have noticed a marked difference in the hydration of my skin. Usually I am normal with some drier patches that itch or peel from time to time, because of this I've tried many creams to try to get lasting hydration with differing levels of success.
Within days of starting to use Vichy Aqualia Thermal Serum in combination with Vichy Aqualia Thermal Light Cream I noticed a change in my skin. The itching stopped and I was left both looking and feeling hydrated. This has continued to get better over the past few weeks. I've even forgotten to apply one morning with no change in my skin's hydrations as well as spending a day in the sun and pool with my kids without my skin becoming dried out again.
Also, I love the scent of the Vichy Aqualia Thermal products. They are very light, my face never feels oily or heavy after application. I am totally enjoying using this serum.
