The review You didn't know you were looking for

.but now you'll be glad you did! Ladies! If you know what I mean, I've suffered from pH imbalance since college, at least once a year or two. And at a young age occasionally and more than once a year. I'm tired of running to my dock for applications. and/or replenishment for Rx. I've also been using Dove since high school. I am now 36 years old and I am still using Dove and will continue to do so. (I love the moisture and softness it leaves on my skin.) However, now and forever, unless something better comes along, I will be using this soap in my routine specifically for this "area". Just after 1 bar out of the 6 packs I bought I had my pH balanced with consistency right and I'm ESTATIC! So, here's a complete EUREKA moment! I do not practice medicine in any way and do not take my advice as medical advice. Please do your own research or consult your doctor. But I decided to take a look and see what the normal range of women's pH balance should be in that "range" compared to the soap I use. The normal pH range in this "range" is 3.8 to 4.5, while your skin's pH ranges from 4 to 5.5. The dove is good in this personal area, but not great. Pigeon soap has a pH of 7, while other traditional soaps have a pH of 9. Looks good but isn't great. Although my doctor recommended Dove to me in college and he still uses it. Basis Bar Soap's pH is the best I've seen on the market using the numbers I've researched so far. The base has a pH of 5-6, which is much closer to the 3.8-4.5 equilibrium range for that range. There are several other products on the market that come close, including the Dove Sensitive Skin Bar, but base is by far the best I've seen today. Based on my research, this bar was also recommended by an obstetrician/gynaecologist. I might not have noticed it right away, and many of you might already know about it, but this review is for people who don't get it. problems and I hope this helps you as much as it has helped me using this product. Dove isn't everything if like me you have pH balance issues, although I will use it all over the body anyway. Get your pH right! One last criticism, the only reason I won't be replacing my Dove bar/gel. for Basis Bar as a full body cleanser because I'm used to how hydrated my skin feels after washing. The base bar leaves a drier feeling than I would like. However, I will use it on my body from time to time for a full body cleanse.
