Dove original beauty bar soap

Breakdown

2 ingredients to avoid

Dove original beauty bar soap scores 49/100 on Tallow — our okay band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Dove original beauty bar soap lists 11 ingredients, starting with Sodium Lauroyl Methyl Isethionate, Vegetable Stearic Acid, Lauric Acid, Sodium Oleate and Sodium Stearate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 49/100 Dove original beauty bar soap lands mid-scale — below the typical score in hand soap, but clear of the bottom band.
