NEW Dove Daily Treatment Conditioner! Review!


I am a Dove Hair Premier Ambassador and Dove provided me with a free product to try and share my opinion with all of you!

I have to say I'm a little biased, I LOVE Dove Products! I already use Dove deodorant and Dove hair care products! I want the product to work great but my main requirement is the right smell. My favorite is the Go Fresh Cucumber and Green tea! Loooove it!

I have to admit I am very hard on my hair! It is very thin and straight. I recently switched to a different hair style that's much shorter than my normal which allows me to blow it out with a round brush and a blow dryer! I add styling mousse, sometimes gel, and always hairspray!!! After all this I am able to give my hair a little body and a thicker look! So you can imagine this Daily Treatment Conditioner was much needed!

My Experience with Dove Daily Treatment Conditioner:

Consistency: I like the consistency, it was creamy and thick. Not much was needed to cover my short hair.

Fragrance: The smell was nice. I would describe it as soft, more on the perfume side. I personally prefer a fruit smell.

Wash out factor: It wasn't hard to wash the conditioner out of my hair. But I could tell it coated my hair. I hate when a conditioner takes forever to wash out and then you never truly feel like it is completely out. This conditioner did not leave my hair feeling greasy or heavy.

Styling: My hair styled just the same as normal, but I noticed a bit of a shine that wasn't there before!


Over all I really liked the new Dove Daily Treatment Conditioner. The bottle was sleek and easy to open. I have had problems in the past with the old Dove bottles. They were very hard to open. So I am very glad Dove changed to the new look!

Now for MY OPINION!!!
I really liked the music from One eskimO. It's very different from my normal choice of music, but I noticed as I listened to the music I felt a sense on calm come over me. It's a very laid back CD! I could definitely see this music being on an episode of Grey's Anatomy! Actually I first played the CD with my children and we danced around the room swaying back and forth! I know kinda nerdy, but hey I'm a momma first and it was great exercise! Ok back to the music...The songs were very unique and interesting! You can tell the musicians had a great sense of musicality! I love the tone of the lead singers (Kristian Leontiou) voice! This band strikes me as very authentic and real. Over all I am impressed, and very thankful to be apart of this review. I can say as a family we really enjoyed the music!
