Dove DermaSeries Overnight Face Cream Review

The new Dove DermaSeries Overnight Face Cream is clinically proven to work while you sleep, giving you beautiful skin overnight!

*Disclaimer: This box was sent to See, Shop, Love! in exchange for an honest review.

The new DermaSeries Overnight Face Cream is a therapeutic-grade cream for very dry skin. It has a light, non-greasy texture and ingredients to kickstart skin's nighttime renewal process. The formula is enriched with shea butter and glycerin to deeply hydrate skin. Essential nutrients, such as triglycerides, help repair the skin's natural barrier function.

The cream is also fragrance-free, hypoallergenic, and is made without parabens and sulfates. It's also recognized by the National Eczema Association as suitable for eczema-prone skin.

I've been using this cream for a few weeks now and it is a great nighttime moisturizer. The formula really is quite light and it absorbs into skin easily without any residue or heavy feeling. Just a pea-sized amount is enough to spread over my face and neck area, so the tube will last a while.

The DermaSeries Overnight Face Cream is specially formulated for very dry skin, but I think it's appropriate for all skin types. I have oily skin, but this still worked great with my skin's texture and needs without making it feel oily or overly-moisturized.

Dove Anti-Stress Micellar Water Body Wash and Beauty Bar Review

Micellar water is a fairly new addition to beauty and skincare, and the Dove Anti-Stress Micellar Water line is the first to bring the technology to the U.S. mass body wash market!

Micelles are surfactant molecules in a liquid colloidal solution. What does that mean? Basically, the micelles are made up of molecules that trap dirt and oil when mixed with water, making for a great addition to cleansers and skincare.

The new Dove line features an Anti-Stress Micellar Water Body Wash and Beauty Bar. Both refresh skin while gently cleansing away pollutants and environmental stressors to reveal smooth, soft skin.

The body wash can be used on the face and body and has a neutral pH level. The scent is light and slightly powdery, much like other Dove products. It's available in a 22 ounce bottle and will last you quite a while.

A little goes a long way with this body wash. Even though it's sulfate free, it still bubbles up really well with a bath pouf or sponge. It left my skin feeling clean without feeling overly dry, and the light scent is refreshing.

The Beauty Bar is suitable for daily use on the face, body, and hands. It cleanses without drying out skin like ordinary soap. It's made with Dove's 1/4 moisturizing cream like the original bars, and helps skin retain moisture. The bar has the same fresh scent as the body wash and left my skin feeling clean without being too dried out.

Bottom Line: The Dove Anti-Stress Micellar Water Body Wash and Beauty Bar are an affordable way to add micellar technology to your beauty routine! Both products cleanse and soothe while leaving skin feeling moisturized. 

Dove Exfoliating Body Polish Review

Dove has launched their first line of body scrubs! The Dove Exfoliating Body Polish is available in three scents and is formulated to nourish skin as you exfoliate.

Disclaimer: These products were sent to See, Shop, Love! in exchange for an honest review.

The Dove Exfoliating Body Polishes are formulated with Dove's signature 1/4 moisturizing cream. This is the same cream that is used in their famous bar soap to keep skin from feeling stripped of moisture after use. Hydrated silica works to remove dull, dry skin while the cream keeps skin feeling soft and nourished.

The Crushed Macadamia and Rice Milk has fragrance notes of peach, almond, creamy macadamia, and praline. I pick up on the macadamia and praline notes the most, which makes for a lovely, rich scent.

The Kiwi Seeds and Cool Aloe polish has notes of kiwi fruit, iced alone, and succulent pear. I love kiwi and this one smells sweet and juicy!

The Pomegranate Seeds and Shea Butter polish has notes of tart pomegranate, raspberry, nectarine, and accents of berries. This one is my favorite of the bunch, though they all smell great!

All three of the Exfoliating Body Polishes have a gentle but effective exfoliation. I would recommend using these at least once a week, but I think they're gentle enough that you could use two to three times if you wanted to or had more stubborn dry skin areas.

Bottom Line: At only $5.99 each, these body polishes are an affordable way to get ready for summer weather! Treat yourself to a relaxing bath or shower and use them to scrub away stress and dry skin.

Keeping Skin Nourished With Dove Beauty Bars

The Dove Beauty Bar is a classic cleanser that can be found in almost every household. The product has been around for more than 60 years, but to this day Dove is still unveiling new research and improvements to set the Beauty Bar apart from your average soap.

*Disclaimer: These products were sent to See, Shop, Love! in exchange for an honest review.

How many times do you wash your hands in a day? Probably more than you ever even think about. Plus add on regular showers, and that's a lot of cleansing to put your skin through. I'm sure you've heard the term "squeaky clean" -- that feeling where your skin is so clean that it's almost literally squeaky when you touch it.

While it may seem like being squeaky clean is the ideal, it's actually not great for your skin. Dove has unveiled new research that showed 85% of dermatologists reported that their patients were surprised to hear that the squeaky clean feeling means that your skin might be stripped of essential hydrating nutrients. 92% of dermatologists reported that ordinary soap can overly strip the skin, so if you're doing this multiple times a day that can lead to some irritated and painful skin!

I have pretty sensitive skin, especially in the winter, and I'm always looking for cleansers that don't overly dry my already chapped hands. The Dove Beauty Bars are different than ordinary soap because they replenish nutrients that are lost while washing. They contain natural skin lipids that deposit onto the skin, as well as 1/4 of their composition being made up of moisturizing cream.A mild cleanser, sodium lauroyl isethionate, cleanses the skin.

Dove Beauty Bars are the #1 dermatologist recommended bar. It cleans your skin without stripping away essential moisture and nutrients. I received three bars to try and I can say that they really do leave my hands feeling much less stripped than other soaps I've tried.

The White Bar is probably the one that most people are familiar with. It has a light floral scent and is embossed with the Dove logo, as are all of the varieties. I also like that it has an ergonomic bend to it, making it easier to hold onto and move around in your hands or across your body to create a lather.

The Beauty Bar is also available in Pink and Sensitive Skin (unscented). While all of them were gentle, the Sensitive Skin is obviously the best option if you're like me and are prone to overly dry or sensitive skin.

After I washed my hands with these soaps I definitely felt a difference. Usually after washing I immediately put on hand lotion to avoid that dry, itchy after wash feeling. I purposely didn't use any lotion after washing with these bars so I could judge how they really made my skin feel. While my skin didn't feel as soft as it would have if I had added more lotion, I can definitely say that I felt the effects of the lipids and moisturizers in the bar! My skin wasn't immediately overly flaky and cracked.

Bottom Line: Dove Beauty Bars are a very affordable way to treat yourself to a small luxury. Instead of stripping your skin of essential moisture and oils that it needs, use these bars to efficiently clean your skin without leaving it feeling "squeaky clean!"

Dove Refresh+Care Dry Shampoo Review

My scalp is unfortunately very oily so dry shampoos are a must. I've been using the new Dove Refresh+Care Dry Shampoo line and I'm loving every single one of them!

*Disclaimer: These products were sent to See, Shop, Love! in exchange for an honest review.

There are four great varieties to choose from: Unscented, Fresh and Floral, Volume and Fullness, and Detox and Purify. The full-sized versions are 5 oz and the Volume and Fullness is available in a travel sized 1.15 oz spray.

I tested all four over the past two weeks and every single one produced great results. I figured the Detox and Purify would work best for my hair type, but I can honestly say that they all were equally fantastic!

The Volume and Fullness shampoo has a weightless formula that cleans and transforms hair from lifeless to bouncy. It absorbs oil between traditional washes. It has a slightly sweet scent that I liked quite a bit. I apply dry shampoo on fresh hair because I like the extra volume and texture it gives, plus if I apply it after my hair is too oily it doesn't do anything but clump up into residue. This gave me good volume and worked well to absorb oil throughout the day.

The Detox and Purify shampoo removes oil from roots without leaving residue for clean, purified hair. It helps control oil so you can skip a regular wash. This one has a clean scent and also left my hair feeling great throughout the day. I could run my fingers through my roots without it feeling too gross or tacky from product and oil build up.

I wasn't sure if I would enjoy the Fresh and Floral shampoo because floral scents tend to make me sneeze and aren't my favorite, but the scent on this is light, fresh, and really enjoyable. It was equally potent and effective at keeping oil at bay as the other shampoos.

The Unscented shampoo is probably the most universally appropriate one for all hair types. If you're looking for an effective dry shampoo that's fragrance free, I highly suggest this one. I like the scented ones a lot, but having an unscented option is great for people with scent allergies or who just simply don't want their hair to smell like any extra fragrance.

Each of these shampoos retails for $3.99, so they're incredibly affordable. The travel sized Volume and Fullness bottle is only $1.99. I've used much more expensive dry shampoos that didn't work nearly as well as these!

Bottom Line: I loved every single one of the Dove Refresh+Care Dry Shampoos! The scented ones were fun and I was surprised at how much I liked the Fresh and Floral scent. All four gave me extra volume and texture and helped keep extra oiliness at bay. They're very affordable and effective, so I give them two big thumbs up!
