Dove Visible Care Softening Creme Body Wash Review & a Giveaway!

Visibly more beautiful skin from a body wash is rare. I honestly think Dove is #1 in my book when it comes to softening my dry skin, it just kicks the competition. Dove has always been a natural choice for me: it smells clean but not overbearing, Dove products have never irritated my skin, & most of all, Dove products work. This softening body wash is no different, in fact, it replaced a few other body washes designed with the same goals.

I love a body wash that I can pick up with a great price & at a convenient place like mass retail stores. I like the light scent which doesn’t irritate my dry skin spots further. Although I tend to lean towards fruity scents, this floral smells super relaxing. It instantly makes me think of taking a long bath with a good book rather than hurriedly getting ready for work. Plus, I’m pretty much a sucker for anything containing jasmine.

Whenever I get asked which companies I admire for their advertising, Dove always comes to mind. Do you guys remember the campaign I took part in for Dove where I got my picture up in NYC? Dove ads are always happy but still impactful for women of all ages. They do a remarkable job catering to the many different levels of the female market. Dove is constantly empowering women, how could I not love it? In a time when beauty in general is questioned…Dove makes it very clear that all women are beautiful, despite what some of us might think of as flaws.

On a lighter note, hey! Its hot here! Summer feels like its suffocating me so I’ve pretty much switched from pants every day to dresses & shorts. I am LOVING how soft this is leaving my skin! Win for Dove & for me! Plus it doesn’t leave that residue or greasy feeling some washes leave that claim to be ultra moisturizing. Color me impressed & glad that I can afford to compulsively buy it!

So let’s look at the positives again before we get to the giveaway shall we?
– Super affordable at under $7 for 18 FL OZ
– Very softening
– Healthy skin for summer
– A feminine but not overbearing scent that lingers pleasantly

So all in all, I am loving this body wash! I’ve used the Toning variant from this line as well & really liked it. I think Dove has really stepped up & filled the need for high quality products at affordable prices. Plus, this softening one really heals with patchiness & such, perfect if you self tan & practically exfoliate your skin off beforehand like me!
