Dove Silky Nourishment Body Cream Review

Price and Quantity:

Rs.380 for 300 ml tub

My Take:

This body lotion comes in a white plastic tub which is very elegant just like any other dove product. It has a screw type lid. The tub is not very handy and travel friendly. It is quite big and tough to carry in an average sized handbag :( However, you can transfer some cream in another container if you need to carry it.

The lotion has a very  light creamy consistency (like that of whipped cream). It gives a smooth and hassle free application, absorbs quickly and deeply into skin. Fragrance is very mild and should not be a problem for sensitive noses.

A routine use body lotion which as per me holds equally good for face as well. In fact I have personally been using it for face and neck exclusively. It is non greasy, spreads evenly on skin. It is essentially water based yet rich enough to penetrate deeply in skin and make it feel nourished and supple. Best part is that it can be used in summers too! However, store it in refrigerator in summers if you want it to maintain its properties.

I once tried using it as a cleansing cream and I swear, it worked like magic!! Also, it works good as a massage cream due to it’s absolutely perfect consistency.

All the routine MABH readers might also be aware about the DIY day cream tutorial. For making my own day cream I had used dove silky nourishment body cream along with aloe vera gel, sunscreen and compact powder. I must mention it did complete justice to the recipe. So, it serves well as a multipurpose cream!

It is useful for all skin types. I personally feel this should suit everyone and can be used all throughout the year! it also works well as a day as well as night cream due to the nourishment it provides and very mild smell.

PROS:

• Affordable
• Easily available
• Can be used in summers as well as winters
• Works well for body and face
• Can be used as a night cream also due to deep nourishment it gives.
• Perfect texture and consistency
• Non greasy
• Quick absorb
• Can also be tried as a massage cream
• Reusable tub

CONS:

• Big tub is not travel friendly
• Tub packing also makes the use bit unhygienic so make sure to wash your hands before using it and try not to share this one with somebody else :P

I really don’t have more negatives to offer. I am in love with the product!

Do I Recommend?:

Yes! From oily to normal to sensitive skin everyone should try it once. The price is a little high but it is worth it. You would not be disappointed with this one, I am pretty sure of that :)

Will I Repurchase?:

Oh yes! Without a doubt :) for indefinite periods of time I guess.
