Dove Body Lotion Silk Review

This Dove moisteriser is a great product to have as a backup for your usual one. It can be a bit greasy and in some cases you may have to re apply later on in the day bit it does leave your skin soft and smooth. Beware if you have sensitive skin as it may cause some blotch in and itching. The jar is a bit huge so you can't just take it anywhere with you and I found it takes awhile to obsorb into your skin after a shower. I do like the smell though.

I don't really like the smell of any dove products but once I got past that feeling and got it on my skin I was pleasantly surprised at how nice it left my skin feeling. The only other downfall is that it's very thick and greasy and took a while to dry after a shower which made getting dressed hard and left all my clothes smelling like it. I would only use on my legs after shaving to help keep them moisturized but that would be the only time.

I found that no matter how much I tried to rub in the lotion my skin was always left feeling greasy/oily after I had applied, however it did a pretty good job - my skin the next morning always felt smooth and silky. I wasn't to keen on the jar style for the packaging, I personally prefer bottles or tubes as dipping into the product over and over seems a bit yuck.

I love love love this product. My skin feels so soft and moisturised after every use. I work in a Tavern/Restaurant and am washing my hands all the time, and the air conditioning is very drying on my skin, so this is perfect for me. I love the smell, and the fact that it doesn't take long to soak into my skin. I am not left with that slippery feel of some of the other similar products.

I used to use this all the time. I love the consistency of the cream, I really like the signature Dove scent and I like the pot. I just find that as I get older, the cream isn't moisturising enough. I find I have to double apply, and who has time for that? I found the lotion to be heavier, but the formulation before the current one. I don't think that the newest formula suits my skin either. It doesn't sink in like the last one did.

This is an oldie! One of the 1st moisturisers I ever bought. I dont like the smell, I find the fragrance quite powdery like- like an old ladies perfume. The consistency is thick and it moisturises but I find its a little too oily for my skin. I had to stop using after a couple of months as it made my skin more oilier. I payed around 5-10bucks at The Warehouse for it and it lasted me 6 months. The packaging is great, but not ideal for travelling as it is quite bulky. I only applied once a day as that is all you need. Great for using on your legs after waxing, it leaves your skin looking smooth and hydrated.
