Advantages: Great smell and price and excellent soap

Disadvantages: There are none, although I would suggest against oily skins using it as a face wash

Having a bit of a soft spot for Dove, having owned pretty much everything in their range at one point or another, it was inevitable that I'd start using this as a hand wash. As you'd expect with Dove, this has a high level of moisturiser in it (most Dove products have at least 1/4 moisturiser, some more) which I feel is a great thing for a hand wash.

This product isn't specifically for hands, however it works very well as one, although it can also be used as a facial wash, but I wouldn't personally use it as a facial wash as I feel it would be too rich for my skin.

It comes in a creamy white pump action dispenser, with a beige pump. It's fairly typical basic, yet inviting Dove packaging.

The scent is wonderful. Fairly strong and not too floral, but often after leaving the bathroom and using this, people will comment on a nice smell, which can't be a bad thing after leaving the bathroom! It's a very rich cleanser that lathers nicely and effectively removes dirt. It also doesn't strip the skin like a lot of other hand washes do. Finally it's also cheap enough to be used as a hand wash, although I'd say it lasts a good 2 months so won't need to be replaced too regularly. Also, Boots do a lot of deals like buy one get one free with this product included, so that's worth keeping an eye out for.

In summary, I would definitely recommend this product. I have many friends who have converted to this as their hand wash of choice because it smells wonderful and moisturises the hands as well as clean them.

Summary: Cheap and cheery hand wash with a wonderful fresh scent
