I'm not a fan of soap bars, in fact I cannot stand it, but I've heard so many good stuff about the dove cleansing bar, and decided to try it out for myself - just for facial cleansing though.. I was quite impressed, it had a pleasant smell, has a thick texture, and removes all grease from the face.. It's so gentle and soft, I didn't break out, and it toned down any acne which I did have.. I use this soap bar before using my daily face wash..
