So soft. Stock issues though.
I really love both versions of the shower cleansing butter by Dove. I generally do a quick rinse of my body, turn the shower off, then I use the cleansing butter first, before using anything else. The body butter is thick, it doesn't have a lather per say but it does go on really well and easily if you rinse first. I have tried it dry, just to see how it worked, and it does work similarly but I ended up using more product without a lot of added benefit, so I suggest a quick rinse first. The scent is light but very nice. After doing a full body lather, I generally then move onto starting my hair, just to give the body butter a couple of minutes to sit on my skin before I move to my choice of shower gel, at which time I just lather and shower as normal. I do follow my after shower with a good moisturizer, as normal. The results are incredibly hydrated and soft skin. I would say that using this product ideally once or twice a week. At twice a week, I can feel the extra softness all the time. At once a week, it starts to wear down around day 4 or 5 and needs a refresh, but that is a good long time for that extra bit of moisture that makes my skin feel healthier and especially in the winter where some of us deal with dry indoor heating, it effectively removes that winter itch for me. I cannot say how much it would help for those that face additional skin issues. I do have a very light eczema that is generally well controlled mostly by my hydration routine which does include this body butter. The biggest issue for me is that this product has two iterations, one of which is always out of stock and the other is sometimes also out of stock. I'm not sure if the product isn't popular. I feel that if more people tried this, after using it they would want to keep it on hand as it makes my skin feel so good. I do hope that enough people are using it to make it worth it for Dove to keep making it as I haven't seen any other products that are similar. Read more
