i really want to get it because i just want to give my skin a break from everything i've tried(accutane, b/p, etc.). i've read that some people break out from it yet the people with the skin type get very different results, i really want to buy it since there are a ton of good reviews about it. should i buy it and try it... what have i got to loose right?

 
I was feeling exactly like you are last week and then I came upon another post where someone was talking about using dove bar soap and I thought what the heck might as well. I just didn't think it could get much worse. I was right. I've only been using it for about a week but I am still really loving the way my skin feels afterwards. I use the sensitive bar and I paired it up with the sensitive lotion and I'm really liking it. Good luck. I hope it works well for you

 
I have dry/sensitive skin and i found that dove really dried my skin im still looking for something different.

 
juls91285, i'm glad you're liking it so far. hopefully, it will work for me also and it won't cause me anymore breakouts(i've been having a lot of those lately :icon_sad: ) my skin is very irritated at the moment... a lot of dry patches, break outs AND it's so darn itchy. :scream3:

emily_3383, did it cause you any breakouts?

 
I know me too! I have dry patches on my face now. I dont know if its pre-mature aging or what...I put on moisturizer though.

I dont use dove soap bard on my face, just on my body. I do also have dry skin, hair, and body. WEIRD huh, but its bearable. I can hide it but i can feel it. DOVE is good for the body but not on my face coz i think it also dried up my face before.

 
why dont u try the Alep soap bar ? my skin is very dry on my body and it works well for me.

On my face I use the moroccan black soap. I always had an oily face. And my skin is so smooth and not dehydrated like when I use products for oily skin.

Those are 2 natural soaps and I just love them.

 
Dove works fine for me and 6 year old daughter as well. We have a lot of allergies and this is good for us. Sometimes I switch and use oil of olay as well.

 
I love Dove! It's a beauty bar which is soap free so it's not harsh and doesnt strip your skin and also has moisturisers in it. I've used it for ages now and my skin is clear and glowing. Most of my friends use it too and they have healthy clear skin. It's apparently recommend by dermatologists especially for people with problem skin. I always get pangs of guilt though because I'm not spending ridiculous amounts of money on an 'all singing all dancing' cleanser but then I remind myself that a lot of it is hype and marketing! I also use Olay Complete for combo/oily skin with SPF15

 
I love Dove soap. It's all I use in the shower and I used it on my face for years. It's one of the only things that took off all of my eye make up without irrirating my eyes. I recently switched to the Cetaphil face bar and I like that as well. I will likely rotate between the two bars of soap for my face. They leave my face feeling fresh & clean.

 
I tried it & it dried my face out & made it tight. Most bar cleansers do that to me though.

 
no i didnt get any breakouts but my skin got really dry and itchy so i stopped using it.

 
I use dove and it doesnt seem to be breaking me out, although for the first week i did notice tiny pimples but they went straight away after that so did my other spots.

 
I love the bar, I don't think its made of the same harsh ingred as soap, I think its made w/ moisturizers. Anyway works well for me and i have really sensitive skin.

 
My step-daughter has horrible exzema and Dove is the only soap she can use that doesn't cause a break-out. I use it when I run out of my regular facial cleansers.

 
I Have Heard Good Things About Dove Soap, I Think I Am Going To Give It A Try. I Currently Use Ivory B/c It Is 99% Pure And Fragrance Free.

 
When I used Dove soap bar on my face it really dried it out and left me with itchy dry patches in several spots on my face. It was also very tight as well. I didn't like it, but maybe its just my skin type.

 
Ditto! Dove products do not contain soap! Recommended by my Derm when I was in my teens along with Aveeno products. My Mom and Grandmom swear by them and they have georgeous skin. It's great for the body also and cost very little. The Nutrium products are the best for dry skin.:inlove:

 
It's great to know that so many women like the simple approach same as me! I've seen so many beautiful women in their 60's and 70's and they've all told me they use Dove and nothing else. I hope I grow old like them from using my Dove! lol!

I broke out a bit at first b/c all the crap from deep down was coming to the surface but not badly. A lot of 'proper' cleansers i.e. like clarins and clinique etc are more harsh on your face than Dove as most contain alcohol, benzoyl peroxide and sodium laureth sulfate which can be quite harsh. Dove doesnt contain any of those.

I can't use anything else now b/c nothing else makes me feel as clean! I also take my make up off on a night using Dove and a soft face flannel as I find the flannel exfoliates my skin too, like I'm getting an exfoliation every night - so cheap!

 
I love Dove for my body and use it once and a while for my face-I find it to be non-irritating and doesn't leave my skin tight and dry.
