Description

We've all been told that exfoliation is an important part of your skin care routine, but that doesn't mean being rough with your skin - skin exfoliation should be gentle. That's where Dove Gentle Exfoliating Beauty Bar comes in. It combines gentle skin cleansers with exfoliating beads to wash away dead skin, giving you soft, smooth skin. Suitable for regular use as a facial cleanser or as a gentle skin cleanser for your body and hands, the Gentle Exfoliating Beauty Bar leaves skin feeling beautiful and revitalized. For best results, rub your Dove Beauty Bar cleanser between wet hands and massage the smooth, creamy lather over your skin before rinsing thoroughly.

The secret to beautiful skin is moisture, and no ordinary bar soap hydrates skin better than Dove. Formulated with mild cleansers that care for skin as you cleanse, Dove Beauty Bar helps deliver nourishment and leaves your face and body feeling soft and smooth and looking more radiant than ordinary bar soap does. That's why we call it a Beauty Bar. And now, we are bringing you Dove's same great formula in an all-new look.

  • A: Yes. Exfoliating soaps occasionally have a tendency to leave your skin feeling dry, but this product contains moisturizers to gently exfoliate without that dry feeling.

Q: What are the exfoliating beads made of? Dove has recently stated, "In an effort to be more sustainable, Dove is removing all unnecessary plastics from our products." From this one, too?

submitted by MadameArcati - 2 years ago
  • A: Thank you for reaching out with your concern about our Dove Bar Gentle Exfoliating Bar. We stopped using microplastic beads in our products in 2014, one year in advance of the government ban in 2015. We made this decision in response to concerns about the build-up of microplastics in oceans and lakes. Our products now contain alternative exfoliating ingredients such as apricot kernels, cornmeal, ground pumice, silica and walnut shells. The blue beads are not meant to dissolve on the skin. (They help the skin's natural surface renewal process and gently exfoliate without irritating or scratching). The white particles break down into a powder with scrubbing, therefore keeping the product more gentle. To learn about our stance on microplastic beads, please visit: https://www.unilever.com/about/innovation/Our-products-and-ingredients/Your-ingredient-questions-answered/Plastic-scrub-beads.html. For more information about our ingredients, you can check out our Smartlabel page: https://www.unileverusa.com/brands/smartlabel/. We hope this helps!

    Does NOT exfoliate

    I would not classify this as a “gentle exfoliating” soap. It’s very smooth, smells nice, lathers well, but does not exfoliate even soft skin like your face.
    1 reply from DoveExpert team - 10 days ago
    Hi x, thank you for sharing your feedback. We're really sorry to hear that this didn’t exfoliate the way you expected, we understand how disappointing it is when a ‘gentle exfoliating’ product feels completely smooth. Your satisfaction is important to us. Please connect with our Consumer Services team at (Consumer-Services.Canada@Unilever.com) with your contact details and the ref ID: (54437097), so we can address your concerns promptly.

    Overpowering fragrance

    Overpowering fragrance. I can smell it on the entire second floor of my house in spite of theses bars being in the box, in a cupboard. I would not buy it again. I will return this.

    Go for it!

    I recently switched it up from the usual sensitive Dove soap I always buy to these exfoliating bars and they are SO great! Gentle enough to use everyday and the scent is fresh and clean. Definitely worth a try especially if you’re already a loyal Dove customer!

    Why???

    I have used Dove's Gentle Exfoliating bar soap for years because it was hands down, the BEST, 5 stars for sure! Light exfoliation, good lather, and smell was perfect, fresh and not overpowering. It was time to replenish my stock so bought as usual, from Target. Not realizing I had already purchased new (super busy) I purchased them again. Both packages smell HORRIBLE, musty moldy smell. I purchased a third pack from another store thinking maybe it was a fluke thing, but same horrible smell and doesn't lather as well. Dove, what did you do??? Why did you change a good thing! I will be contacting customer service after purchasing $30 in unusable soap. Please go back to original formula!

    Melts too quickly, changed scent

    The bars melt too quickly, are smaller, and smell different. I have been buying gentle exfoliating bars for years and am disappointed with the current product and looking for another brand now. Another sad example of corporate greed messing up a good product.
