Advantages: smells nice, nice packaging.

Disadvantages: have to continually respray, doesnt moisturise.

Honestly, i'm not a big fan of Dove, i only bought it as i needed an anti-perspirant, i liked the colour of the container, and wild rose smelt pretty good. I didn't even notice the 'minimises the prickly feeling between shaves' part until i got home.

Price
I bought mines from Asda for £2.64 for 150ml. You can also currently purchase this in Tesco for £2.62, Sainsbury's for £1.52 and Ocado for £2.62 or as part of a 3 for 2 deal.

Packaging
The colour is gorgeous! It's like a shiny, light pink colour, which shimmers slightly when the light hits it. The bottle is a long, cylinder shape with a curvy dent nearer the top, perhaps put in place to help ease application. It says Dove on the front with the logo and then some information about the deodorant. It has little plastic lid which you can pull off and on without much effort. The container keeps the anti-perspirant cool.

Claims
The product claims to 'minimise the prickly feeling between shaves'. It also says that it's unique formula contains: 'Pro-Epil complex with natural extracts' and 'Dove's 1/4 moisturising cream'. Dove also claims that 'It cares for your underarm skin, helping to get a close shave and within weeks your underarm hair will feel softer. With continued use, Dove Minimising reduces that prickly feeling between shaves, keeping the just shaved feeling for longer. All with the 24 hours protection and skincare expertise you expect from Dove.'

Product
The product is always really chilled, so it's great when applying. The product also doesn't leave any white marks like some other anti-perspirants do, so you can feel confident when your going out. The smell is gorgeous! It's really fresh and has a sofistiated twist to it. You can definetely smell the rose coming through, and it gives it a really gorgeous fragrance.

Application
Shake well. Then hold the can 15cm from the underarm and spray by pushing the button located at the top of the container. Be careful though, as sometimes if your skin is sensitive, the deodorant can sting where you sprayed.

Results
First off, it definetely left me feeling refreshed and awake. The smell is definetely the best aspect about this product, it's lovely. As for moisturising my underarms. No, it didn't. If anything, it made them drier. I'm lucky that i dont really have this prickly feeling between shaves, so i can't really give my opinion on that. As for the 24 hour protection, that was a big let down. I had to respray, and respray, and respray over and over again.

Downfalls
Had to continually respray.
Didn't moisturise, infact, it made them drier.

Overall
All in all, i would not purchase this product again as although it was nicely fragranced and packaged, they were the only good aspects about this product. It failed to do carry out all the claims it promised, and for that reason i would not recommend it to anyone else.

Summary: wouldn't recommend.
