Key Ingredients
- Important ingredient-panel conflict -- please read before use if you have known sensitivities: MedEasy found two independent UK sources listing meaningfully different ingredient panels for this same 225ml product. Dove's own official UK site lists one panel (below, Panel A). A separate independent UK retailer lists a second panel (Panel B) that additionally includes Alumina, Titanium Dioxide, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Benzyl Alcohol, and Butylphenyl Methylpropional, and omits some colorants present in Panel A. MedEasy could not confirm which panel corresponds to the exact unit sold in Bangladesh, so both are disclosed rather than one being silently chosen
- Punica Granatum Seed Powder (pomegranate seed): the featured exfoliating ingredient, confirmed present in both panels
- Butyrospermum Parkii Butter (Shea Butter): confirmed present in both panels, included for its moisturizing properties
- Panel A -- Dove UK official site: Aqua, Glycerin, Hydrated Silica, Sodium Lauroyl Isethionate, Stearic Acid, Sodium Stearate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Parfum, Sodium Palmitate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Lauric Acid, Sodium Isethionate, Jojoba Esters, Phenoxyethanol, Hydroxyacetophenone, Sodium Chloride, Sodium Palm Kernelate, Tetrasodium EDTA, Sodium Benzoate, Zinc Oxide, Punica Granatum Seed Powder, Butyrospermum Parkii Butter, Sodium Hydroxide, Benzyl Salicylate, Hexyl Cinnamal, Linalool, CI 77491, CI 77891, CI 17200
- Panel B -- independent UK retailer listing: Aqua, Glycerin, Hydrated Silica, Sodium Lauroyl Isethionate, Stearic Acid, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Alumina, Butyrospermum Parkii Butter, Cetearyl Alcohol, Hydroxyacetophenone, Jojoba Esters, Lauric Acid, Parfum, Phenoxyethanol, Punica Granatum Seed Powder, Sodium Benzoate, Sodium Chloride, Sodium Hydroxide, Sodium Isethionate, Sodium Palm Kernelate, Sodium Palmitate, Sodium Stearate, Tetrasodium EDTA, Titanium Dioxide, Zinc Oxide, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Benzyl Alcohol, Benzyl Salicylate, Butylphenyl Methylpropional, Hexyl Cinnamal, Linalool, CI 17200
- Sibling-product note: a differently-sized (298g) "Dove Body Polish Exfoliating Scrub," sold mainly in India, is a distinct SKU from this 225ml product and its ingredient data has NOT been used here
