It's been a little over two months that I have been using this product on a daily basis. The light exfoliation became apparent after about two weeks. Loved that I could get the micro-cleaning without abrasiveness and harshness. My skin does seem to be clearer and smoother in look and feel. At times I felt that it wasn't very hydrating and added a second moisturizer. Overall, happy with the product and would recommend. -

It's been a little over two months that I have been using this product. Originally, I was impressed with its effectiveness in removing makeup, especially mascara. One swipe essentially is all that was needed. Over the long term, I've begun using the product when I feel that my face needs a freshening up during the hotter days, when I am makeup-free. The liquid is cooling and deep cleaning, without leaving skin feeling dried out. Definitely would recommend. -

I'm a fan of Dove so my expectations are a little skewed to the high side.
On first uses of this product (about a week), my skin felt moisturized and soft immediately. Regardless, I still used body lotion, but just on my legs. In the second week, about half way through the day, my arms and torso would start to feel a little dry and itchy. Nothing dramatic enough to be troublesome or an allergic reaction, but annoying. By week three, aside from where I used body lotion, my skin felt less moisturized as the day progressed. I stopped using this scent, and switched back to the unscented Dove. Two weeks later, back to normal for me.
I think the scent additives for the bar caused the drying effect. It could very well be other factors, but mentioning it so others are aware. Using a body lotion after bathing removed any issues.
Aside from this, the soap was delightful. Nice scent; good texture; didn't shrink away in the shower quickly.

Overall, I liked this toothpaste. It provided a lot of 'suds' from a small amount of product. Cleaned well but fresh feeling lasted no more than my regular brand. On the plus side, despite not being for sensitive teeth, it maintained the relief and protection from my regular sensitive toothpaste brand. Didn't notice a difference in whiteness, but definitely helped maintain my current state. Good product. -

I was excited to receive this product in a package of multiple products through the product review club, at no cost. There was no other compensation for my unbiased opinion.
My hair is slightly longer than shoulder length, fine, and very curly. My concerns have been dullness, dryness and it being uncontrollably frizzy. I've not yet found a shampoo that didn't leave my hair tangled after use. Typically, my conditioner lasts a half to a third of the life of my shampoo since I've gotten into a habit of using it every day. Shampooing my hair, with past experiences of it being drying, is something I try to do only two or three times a week. Obviously in the hot weather at the height of summer this plan is dashed and washing is needed daily. I didn't expect much from Dove Daily Moisture Shampoo, having heard a lot of claims over the years, which have disappointed. Luckily, I was pleasantly surprised. By day three of use, my hair was beginning to have more shine, less tangles, and from the moisturized scalp, no flakes. It did a very good job of cleansing out hair products without making hair feel stripped. I always used it with a following conditioner rinse, but it may very well of stood up well even without it. The MSRP is $7.99 but it can be found in stores such as Walmart for a $4.97 price point. Great value for the money since this product holds up to its claims.

My hair is slightly longer than shoulder length, fine, and very curly. My concerns have been dullness, dryness and it being uncontrollably frizzy. I've not yet found a shampoo that didn't leave my hair tangled after use. Typically, my conditioner lasts a half to a third of the life of my shampoo since I've gotten into a habit of using it every day. I didn't expect much more from Dove Daily Moisture Conditioner than what I've experienced with other moderate priced conditioners. It surprised me. Firstly, it worked wonders in releasing the tangles. Normally, combing or brushing my hair is a fight from the ends upwards. The victims are the many strands that get pulled out in the process, and it isn't unusual for me to have to remove handfuls from the brush a couple of times before done. With Dove Daily Moisture Conditioner brushing was a breeze. Secondly, a little goes a long way. It was nice to be able to have to apply only once for good results, rather than the normal two to three for me. This in itself will result in cost savings for me. No longer will I have to buy two conditioner bottles for every one of shampoo. Lastly, it left my hair feeling soft. Even after adding styling products, I could feel the difference. This is my new favourite conditioner. The MSRP is $7.99 but it can be found in stores such as Walmart for a $4.97 price point. Great value for the money since this product holds up to its claims.

My hair is slightly longer than shoulder length, fine, and very curly. My concerns have been dullness, dryness and it being uncontrollably frizzy. In the past I have used oils to condition my hair, to add shine and to provide some control. My complaint has always been that the oil did not absorb quickly, and hair was left feeling greasy. Dove Pure Care Dry Oil with African Macadamia Oil was amazing! The directions state to use 3 to 4 pumps. This was normally enough even for my longer length, but periodically I would use 1 or 2 more pumps. It absorbs in a short amount of time, but long enough for it to be spread evenly throughout the hair. It leaves hair soft as a cloud, and smelling great. The shine is like one of healthy hair. After two weeks of daily use, there is still approximately two-thirds of the bottle remaining. A little goes a long way with this product. Definitely a new addition to my arsenal of hair products!

I received this product through the product review club, at no cost. There was no other compensation for my unbiased opinion.
My hair is slightly longer than shoulder length, fine, and very curly. My concerns have been dullness, dryness and it being uncontrollably frizzy. Unless straightened with a hot iron, hairspray is not a product in my regular arsenal of hair products. “Flexible” seems to be a very accurate descriptor for this product. When used, my hair didn't feel stiff, sticky or weighted down. For someone who uses hairspray regularly, it would be a good addition to their arsenal of hair products.
The MSRP is $9.99 but it can be found in stores such as Walmart for a $3.47 price point.

My hair is slightly longer than shoulder length, fine, and very curly. My concerns have been dullness, dryness and it being uncontrollably frizzy. This product's instructions stated to brush or comb the dry shampoo through your hair application. This step is needed to allow the product to do its job of removing oilyness and so you don't have an obvious coating f the product at the roots. Unfortunately, with curly hair, that just turns your 'do into a massive round ball of frizz and chaos. Definitely not a product for me to use regularly. A time I could see it coming in handy is when my hair is straightened with a hot iron. Using as directed would be simpler, any fly-aways could be touched up, and it would allow me to keep a straight style for several more days than typical. The MSRP is $9.99 but it can be found in stores such as Walmart for a $3.47 price point. That is a great price even if you just leave it in your drawer at work for freshening up.
