I don’t normally use cleanser, or makeup remover, or anything like that. My skin is super sensitive and liable to break out into either acne, or a giant rash, at the hint of anything that isn’t water, or super gentle.
So I had a few trepidations when I agreed to review a bottle of Dove’s makeup remover, but, I trust Dove’s products and I’ve never had a reaction to them before. It’s good that I had the reputation of Dove to fall back on, because I rather liked the makeup remover and (WIN!) it didn’t make my skin break out.
Unlike other cleansers, Dove’s is gentle enough to use to remove eye makeup and while I don’t normally wear eye makeup, I did get some of it close to my eyes and there were no tears or burning.
It comes in a handy dandy bottle, with a little clip that I can clip on to stop my children using it willy nilly. This is probably not what the clip is for, but I’m not going to argue.
And I will also say that used “off label” it makes for a brilliant irritant free nappy change cleanser. But shhhhh, I didn’t tell you that. (Isaac has bowel issues, we change 10+ nappies a day – I need all the nappy changing help I can get.)
So yes, rather happy. Yet again, Dove lives up to its name and creates a product that does exactly what it says it will and doesn’t kill my skin.
Brilliant.
And now, because Dove love you guys, I have a $25 Coles gift card to give away to one lucky person who comments here.
To enter, tell me what your favourite Dove product is. Or, what you plan to buy with the $25 gift card.
The winner will be drawn on the 18th of July. Open to Australian residents only.

I have sensitive skin too, and we use Dove bodywash because it’s so gentle on the skin. Handy when we run out of baby bath soap too, we can just use a little of ours
pixie says

Tara @ Mum-ments says
I love the DOVE Go Fresh body lotion it makes my skin feel so nice and smooth especially in winter from the heat of the heater and the wind of outside my skin dries out very quickly

We all love dove in my house, we use the soap, body washes, shampoo, and conditioner. But my absolute favourite is the tinted mouisturiser with SPF 15+ I use is every day!
I am shocking at taking off my make up so if I win i think I’ll have to but the make up remover
Kylie Ofiu says
I actually need to get all new skincare. I love all Dove products, but lately I have gotten really lazy and it shows in my skin.
I would love to win the voucher and I would get a cleanser, toner, moisturiser with it.

We use Dove soap, my mother-in-law buys it bulk and then distributes it to the whole family 😉
Samelia's Mum says
I love the Dove body wash. So lovely. So soft. So silky.

Sensitive skin here too and Dove bodywash is fabulous.
I will have to give this makeup remover a go for the rare occasions I wear make up.
Kirsty says

AlyceB says
I love their deodorant. How ordinary, I know. But it smells nice and clean (rather important, I think!) and works. And doesn’t sting tooooo much when I’ve cut my underarm shaving (ouch!). And to be more ordinary, the $25 will go towards the weekly shopping. Probably nappies to be precise!
Wendy Hatton says
I like to use Dove soap and roll on deodorant. Feel good and are not too strongly scented.
Meagan says
Has to be replenishing moisturizer makes me feel fresh and new…

Kellie @ Three Li'l Princesses says
We’ve been long users of Dove soap and love it.
Rheyanan-lee says
I haven’t actually tried any dove products! This would be my ideal product to start with though!!
Mumma's Mini Mes - Kym says
My husband loves dove soap but since he isn’t allowed to use soap in the new shower…. I have now been using the Dove Body wash and I must say I am very impressed, it feels so nice.
Gael Macpherson says
We love the soap…I am always amused when my big strong husband becomes attached to a product because it makes his skin feel moister and softer.
Fiona @ Oh Gorgeous Baby says
I love their soap. I love how it makes my skin feel and I really love the aroma it leaves on my skin and in the bathroom.
Pam says
I have adult acne so can empathise with you. I am always on the lookout for new skin products and have never tried Dove – given your review I think if I win this I’d have a go with one of their products. And anything left over will go toward the weekly shop tbh. I’m a Coles girl 😉
Thanks for the opportunity!
Amanda Elizabeth from Amanda's Mummy Jeans says
Thanks so much Veronica for the opportunity!
I’d definatley buy something for my little baby due end of September. I don’t have a family or friends support network and childbirth is my worst fear. It really doesn’t help that I will only have hubby by my side and really no visitors. I seem to always do random acts of kindness for others (eg people at work) and no one really does any for me. Just buying a couple of little things for our 3rd jelly bean cheers me up 😀
xoxo fingers crossed
