Dove

I love this cleanser. I have very oily tzone along with dehydrated and sensitive skin. A lot of cleanser irritate my skin. My skin has improved since using this face wash. While it does take a little more work to get makeup off my face and I double sometimes triple cleanse, it doesn't irritate or dry my skin or cause excess oiliness. My face feels clean and soft. Very happy.

I picked this up at Target after I ran out of my beloved Batiste. The first thing I noticed upon trying was how strongly scented this is. I normally gravitate towards fragrant hair care products anyways, but this was WAY too much. I smelled like dryer sheets and couldn't smell my perfume on me (literally my Uber driver asked what perfume I was wearing and I realized she was talking about my dry shampoo). This didn't make my hair look any better, nor give it any volume. I keep trying to make it work but I think this is a no-go for me. It's relatively inexpensive and easy to find, and doesn't leave a white cast on my hair. My hair looks exactly the same after blasting this through my roots. Wouldn't purchase again.

I love the smell, it works well, but I do not like the packaging. I know it sounds silly, but it's difficult to spray. The button is hard to press down. It's also a few more dollars than the stick version. I don't understand why because it seems like you get less product. I bought the spray version because someone told me it worked better, but I don't know.

Dove Exfoliating Body Polish is a dud. The product is mostly a thick cream with some very fine grains that are supposed to exfoliate. The grains are so few and so fine that this doesn't make a very effective exfoliant for the body. This would probably be a better suited as a face scrub since it is so gentle. That being said I have not used this on my face, as I had a bad reaction to it on my body. YMMV, but this caused my eczema for flare up a bit, not really the effect I was looking for. I've use Tree Hut sugar scrubs which are much coarser and never had an issue with it irritating my skin. would not repurchase for obvious reason.

I ran out of my salon branded product and decided to try a few travel size drugstore brands to see if I could find something I liked for less money. Have used this about three or four times so far on second day hair and i’m quite satisfied with it. It kept my hair looking fresh for an extra day with no scummy product feeling. I felt like I had clean hair. Don’t know if I will buy the full size or go with one of my other experiments, but I’m definitely considering it.
