"As a dermatologist, I love seeing active, facial-grade ingredients in body care. This serum body wash has 2% niacinamide and salicylic acid to gently exfoliate and promote natural skin renewal for healthier-looking skin."

Dr. Gohara

"This is one of my go-to recommendations for people with extremely dry skin. Formulated with a blend of hyaluronic acid and squalane, it is great at locking in moisture for long-lasting hydration."

Dr. Luke

00011111049420

"I have been recommending the Dove Beauty Bar for as long as I can remember. It replenishes moisture that can be lost during cleansing; is pH-balanced, doesn’t block pores, and cleanses without causing dryness, leaving skin feeling soft."

Dr. Gohara

00011111610798

"Patients often tell me they want a cleanser that is both gentle and smells great and the truth is they can have both. I recommend this bar to my patients looking for a mild and replenishing cleanser with a warm scent and I have personally used Dove beauty bars for years."

Dr. Luke

00011111076273

"Many of my patients ask me to recommend cleansers the whole family can use and this fragrance-free Beauty Bar is top of my list. It’s mild enough for even eczema-prone skin."

Dr. Gohara

00011111613782

"Some of my patients have dry skin after using antibacterial cleansers, and that’s when I recommend Dove Antibacterial Body Wash. It’s clinically proven to eliminate 99% of bacteria, but because it's also milder than soap and sulfate-free, so not only doesn’t it dry out your skin, it actually leaves it feeling soft."

Dr. Gohara

00011111025837

"Some antibacterial soaps can dry out your skin, but Dove Beauty Bar is not a soap. It's a cleanser that removes 99% of bacteria without stripping your skin of essential moisture."

Dr. Gohara

00011111027275

"This oil-to-lather body wash is great for my patients who experience very dry skin. It has 50% Glycerin Serum, and it feels great, leaving skin soft and smooth after use."

Dr. Luke

"I see a lot of underarm irritation due to excessive sweating. I like recommending Dove clinical-strength formulas that contain effective ingredients that benefit your skin. These sticks help prevent sweat for 96 hours and are made with a 7% nourishing serum to care for skin."

Dr. Luke

00079400008794

"If you're looking for maximum sweat protection in a soft solid, I recommend this antiperspirant. It delivers 96 hours of clinical sweat protection, helps prevent irritation, and actually cares for the skin barrier on your underarms."

Dr. Gohara

00079400008787

00079400530974

"When my patients with sensitive skin ask for antiperspirant recommendations, I always suggest this fragrance-free, hypoallergenic one. It combines 72-hour protection with Pro-Ceramide Technology to leave underarms feeling dry, comfortable, and resilient."

"I love shower products that use clinically effective ingredients to target specific skin concerns. I recommend this body wash with 1% salicylic acid to my patients with back acne, because salicylic acid can penetrate deeply into pores and helps prevent breakouts."

Dr. Luke

00011111049451

"When my patients ask for an aluminum-free deodorant recommendation, this is at the top of my list. Not only is it alcohol-free, it’s also made with 35% nourishing serum that contains vitamin E and niacinamide, which means it helps to care for your skin barrier while preventing dryness and irritation."
