Dove : Sensitive Skin Bar

I hope the Sensitive Skin Dove Bar works! I've tried many things. And now, I'm 34 with wrinkles and acne??!!! Annoying. I crave simplicity in my beauty routines (and life) and I think I just may be overdrying my skin with the 4+ steps in the Dermalogica line. Hopefully this with a light moisteriser will be enough to cool things down. I've been fighting acne my entire life!!!

I have tried proactiv, natures cure, minocycline, tetracycline, accutane (2X), all sorts of store bought face washes, strict diets, you name it for the last nine years, and the only thing that worked temporarily was the accutane. But without a daily regimen, its hard to maintain that. My acne is pretty mild, but some of the washes and stuff gave me flare ups, and basically each day was a toss up for me. Or they made my skin so tight and dry or sensitive to sun that i was limited to what i enjoyed doing. I read the reviews on here for this stuff and figured what the heck. Been using it for about a week and my skin is now flawless. I would never believe it unless i took a chance and tried it, but it really works incredible. Use it once in the morning and night, following it up with clean and clear soft spf15 face moisturizer at night. Waking up each day to clear, soft, healthy looking skin! TRY IT!

I'm a 19 year old male and have had bad body acne for about 2-3 years now. I use this on my body and it works great for my body acne. I used to have a lot of acne on my back and chest, and I was always too rough when treating it and would over dry and cause a lot of scarring. Now I use dove sensitive bar and it cleared almost all of my body acne, i only get a few small zits sometimes and rarely i get one large one but for the most part its all gone. My scars are also fading slowly. Use a non-oil moisturizer on your body as well so it doesn't over dry. This combination is working great for me and I'm sure all my scars will disappear soon. If you have body acne i recommend dove highly! Be patient when using it because all of your acne won't dissapear in a week, it probably took me several weeks to see the acne go away and several months for most of my scars to fade.

In a bout of frustration I hit the reset button and decided to take a less is more strategy with my skin. I used the regular dove bar soap on my face at night followed by apple cider vinegar and cerave pm lotion and my skin loves this. I noticed a change right away the next morning! I know it's the bar soap because I was doing the other two steps with a different cleanser (la Roche posay) and was still breaking out. I am somewhat a skin care snob and have used it all cheap, expensive, natural (yes to tomatoes, galderma labs, alba botanica,aveda,boscia,bareminerals clay chameleon, I could go on) I was shocked that dove of all soaps is what is making my skin look and feel so nice. My skin looks healthier and I don't have any active acne. My cystic acne on the left side of my face is flattening out. I have been using this soap for 1 week now. I do make sure to tone and moisturize ALWAYS and I use a different cleanser in the am (nature's organics) Took off one star because although it is clearing up my skin the white heads on my nose are still there but I plan on using an aha chemical exfoliant for that.

well, when i first bought it and used it, it dried out my skin pretty bad... my skin is pretty dry, that's why.. well, i've tried proactiv, neutregina, noxema, clean and clear, clearisel.. nothing really worked for me.. i mean, for a week or two, then it went back to the same problem.. i dont have huge pimples or huge breakouts.. but, it bothers me.. a lot. well, i used dove (even though my brother told me not to). one of my friends told me she used it and it worked on her acne.. she had tried proactiv, too.. dove is really helping my skin.. it's getting a LOT better, and it's a lot brighter now.. you just need a little moisturizer.. :)

I used Cetaphil for more than a year already and it helped clear my acne because I have been having acne since my late teen years. I also tried using Tretinoin along with Cetaphil but I still get breakouts at least twice a week, though it was better than before. I started using Dove as a body soap only about two weeks ago and used it also on my face since I ran out of Cetaphil. Since I started using it, my skin got lighter and the acne scars went lighter. I never had a breakout for a week already. I will continue to use the product and see if Dove will be the answer to my acne problem. I have tried other soaps and spot acne medication but none worked. I even went to a dermatologist and used their product but after I was off of it, my acne came back.

Having had acne for 13 years now... I think the science around the subject is flawed. These companies find ingredients which supposedly kill the acne bacteria or exfoliate the skin or sooth the skin, etc. In the end, most of them end up CONTRIBUTING to the acne and do more harm than good! Dove soap is the only one that I've found that doesn't. It cleans your face, but doesn't actively tackle the acne nor does it make it worse. However, since most other acne treatments are as bad for acne as they are good... Dove leads the pack. Nothing really even comes close in my (13 year!) experience. If you haven't tried it, you really should give it a go for 3-4 weeks at least. For $2-3 what can go wrong?

I bought this for my underarms; i've been having trouble with removing the sweat under my arms and i needed something gentle for the irritation there caused by friction and an antiperspirant, and all though it didn't clean my underarms as well as i had hoped, i recently noticed the little bit of back acne i had is gone XD with the hot weather my back was sweating and breaking out but once i began using this soap my bacne went away... i am so surpised! this was an amazing accident! i used to use a glycolic acid body wash once in a while on my back but now i don't need to! and its great cuz that body wash costs a ton! My skin feels really clean with it.. except for my underarms :(

Great soap ... Been using it for about a month.

it works about 85 to 90% of the time.
