...:- Dove softening silk body wash there's nothing like the light sensation of silk on your skin. Dove softening silk body wash combines specially selected pure silk with dove 1/4 active moisturising cream. Gentle cleansing with a rich silky lather Protects your skin's natural moisture balance Leaves your skin feeling silky smooth Dove softening silk body wash - sensuous yet light, leaving your skin super silky. In addition, a lengthy list of ingredients, useful if you are allergic to anything. But I will not include here. *The contents* I ran my shower next morning and easily flipped the lid. Good start as I find some bottles difficult to open. Mmm. I could already smell the contents. This was not an aromatherapy body wash, but my nose reacted and I felt uplifted. It smelled expensive, like around the perfume counter in a good... Read review

...I was looking for a different shower gel as my current one was almost finished. I was in Boots when I came across the offer for this. "For the ultimate silky shower experience", says the blurb on the back of this body wash I'm holding. Doesn't sound bad does it?? So what was this? Dove Cream Oil Body wash. I have used Dove products in the past and have been happy with them, so bought this. The body wash comes in an oval shaped bottle. The bottle is a beige type colour with a gold sheen to it. The front design is minimal, simply stating the name and its special ingredients, pure Silk, Macadamia oil and active moisturising cream. Why are these ingredients so special?

Well, I guess I have always had dreams of being filthy rich, I guess there are some people out there who could answer, they are wrapped in silk all day anyway! To be honest, I hadn't particularly wondered what it would be like to be wrapped in silk as I am very happy with my comfy towelling bath robe thanks very much! Well, getting to the point Dove claims that their Softening Silk Bath combines pure silk with Dove's rich moisturising cream. An indulgent silky lather wraps your body and gently cares for your skin, leaving it feeling luxuriously soft and smooth like silk.

...Dove Body Silk is a fantastic moituriser which is far more luxurious than your bog standard body lotion. It's very thick and creamy, and seems to melt into your skin like ice cream rather than being thin and runny like a lot of lotions on the market. It comes in a tub, as opposed to a bottle, so you scoop out the contents, which I think is fab! The packagine of Dove Body Silk is, like the rest of the range, simple but stylish. The 300ml tub is curved, made of white plastic with the familiar 'Dove' logo in blue italics. It also carried a picture of a gold dove, which I like is quie classy! It has a screw lid, and you use your fingers to take out the
