The best part of the new Dove Shower Foam is the fact that it's foam! It's so lightweight and easy to spread. I was very surprised at how well it kept the lather when washing. I expected it to dissolve quickly when spreading it, but it didn't! The scent wasn't bad. I am not a huge fan of this scent, but it wasn't overpowering, which is nice!
I forgot to say I #gotitfree from ChickAdvisor in exchange for my honest opinion!
I like the product I just was not a fan of this particular scent. I like the amount of product in the bottle and how many pumps you can get out of a single container. I prefer the other scents/unscented ones to this one.
J'avais hâte d'essayer se produit et je n'es pas été déçu, jai adorer. La mousse est légère et laisse ma peau bien hydrater et douce après la douche . Quel beau parfum aussi j'adore ce produit.
I #gotitfree from ChickAdvisor in exchange for my honest review and was excited to try the Cucumber Green Tea foam. I loved how it felt #aslightas air but still felt refreshing! I loved th3 fact that it has so many pymps in one container as well-250! That can go a long ways as long as my kids don't get it! :) Thanks for allowing me to try it.
bonjour a tous un petit mot sur la mousse pour le corps dove que j ai eu en cadeau gratuit je suis tres satisfaite du produit car ma peau est douce et sans résidu de savon
When I select a body wash, fragrance is one of the first things I evaluate. It's just as important to me as the texture. In fact, scent is often the deciding factor for me when making a purchase.
I have to say, I was very pleasantly surprised that I enjoyed the scent of this Green Tea & Cucumber foam body wash from Dove. Typically, I would never even lift the cap off a product with this scent, let alone buy or use it. However, since I recieved this product to test and review, I stepped into the shower with an open mind and a naked body, and gave it a whirl!
It doesn't have that faux, manufactured "fresh" scent that I typically come to expect from similarly fragranced products; I don't enjoy eating salad so I definitely don't want to smell like one. It is very pleasant smelling and actually smells genuinely fresh. Not too cucumber-y (is that a word?), and definitely not too green tea-ish. Just natural, fresh and light!
When I first saw how incredibly light the foam is, I wondered just how fast this formula would run out. Would it just be a gimmick in order to drive sales and make the consumer buy product more often? Fair question, but the bottle indicates it contains over 250 pumps so, while looks can be deceiving, it seems like there is value for the amount of product, and therefore, uses, in the bottle. I guess only time will tell if this type of formula is any less cost effective than other formulas. Side note: I have used foam hand soap before and I thought the amount of product was comparable to regular liquid hand soap so, ultimately, I don't think that body wash would be much different in this regard.
I have purchased and used many, many Dove products, including body washes, for all of my adult life. It is a brand that I have come to know and trust and one that delivers a lot of "hits" and very few "misses". I find that in recent years Dove has really stepped up its game and when I hear about the brand I no longer think of a boring, plain white bar of soap. Now I have come to associate Dove with things like innovation & relevance to the current world of beauty, and the ever important messaging of "girl-power" / self esteem / body positivity / inner beauty & women's rights (go, Dove!). Dove has worked really hard to compete in today's beauty market and deserves the recognition.
Although I have selected the option to recommend this body wash, I personally will not be purchasing or using it again. And it all comes down to one thing: personal preference.
I can appreciate the innovative light foam formula, I just don't like it. I really, really wanted to love it, and I do love the concept - but I really dislike the texture of the product. It's ultra light and super foamy, but it also falls right out of my hands when try to apply it to my body. I should note that I do not use a sponge / puff as I feel they breed bacteria, however, I can see this working better if you use a washcloth or sponge / puff vs. your bare hands so that the foam has something to hold onto. When using hands to apply, I feel like you're just paying to watch the foam, and your money, literally go down the drain.
I also found the formula to be slightly sticky and slightly drying on my skin, and I felt like I had to rinse longer than usual. I do tend to have dry skin and especially now, during the dry & cold winter months, my skin is extra parched. This foam just doesn't work for my dry skin. My usual body wash formula is typically thicker, creamier and contains lots of moisturizing oils.
I found the container to be a bit too big and bulky. I think the bottle design is more appropriate for hand soap as it has a wide base that needs to be placed on a decent sized level surface in order to pump properly; and let's face it - not everyone has that kind of real estate in their shower. I also dropped the container on my toes several times while showering; but whether that has to do with my tendancy to be clumsy or the bottle design & slippery foam on my hands, I cant say. The pump dispenser itself is a bit too large and I found it awkward to pump while holding the container in my soapy hands. I ended up placing the bottle on the side of my rounded tub, where it perched precariously as I continually bent and pumped while lathering up. It was a great workout, but I prefer a more relaxing bathing experience.
Unfortunately, this light foam body wash didn't make the cut for me, but I can see it appealing to a large audience, therefore I am giving it a "thumbs up" review. It's not a terrible product, it's just not for me. The concept is great, the innovation is great, the scent is great but my personal preference is to use a creamier body wash that contains moisturizing oils.
Great job, Dove, for continuing to be a leader in beauty and for your wonderful messaging to young girls and women about real beauty; the kind that comes from within.
L'odeur est très rafraîchissant! Je trouve qu'il s'applique mieux avec un gant exfoliant. Je me sens très propre avec la mousse plutôt qu'avec un gel douche ou une barre à savon. De plus j'ai remarqué que j'économise du temps lors de l'application du Dover Foaming Body Wash grâce à la distribution par pompe et que le produit soit en mousse aussi! Merci ChickAdvisor pour cette fabuleuse découverte! #gotitfree #cadeau
J'ai été agréablement surpris par l'odeur très rafraîchissante du thé avec le concombre je l'aime mieux que le gel douche au concombre seul vraiment j'adopterai ce gel douche c'est sur!!!
#gotitfree through Chickadvisor as well. This was seems a bit different from the other ones I tried but it's hard to describe. It's like a clean scent and keeps you clean too. :)
The Dove Shower Foam in Cucumber and Green Tea was really lovely and calming. I really liked the scent of this product because it wasn't very heavy and didn't linger to interfere with my other scent products, but was a nice smelling experience while in the shower. The texture was very light, and came off easily when rinsing. It was not drying at all. I liked the product, and will likely purchase from this product line again.
I received this product to try for free as part of the Product Review Club.
