This $16 shower product is blowing up. 11 women put it to the test.

Thanks to our brand partner, DOVE

It's not every day a beauty product has literally everyone talking. But when this one dropped, we knew it — and so did our feeds.

Suddenly, the product everyone was buzzing about gave us the perfect excuse for what we all low-key love (and slightly dread): the "everything shower". You know the one — shampoo, conditioner, hair mask, body scrub, shave — the kind of shower ritual that leaves you feeling completely reset.

And to nail that ritual, you need the right tools. That's where Dove's Body Polish ($16!!) comes in.

Gentle yet effective, the formula is a two-in-one product: it buffs away dead skin while deeply nourishing with Dove's signature 1/4 moisturising cream, replenishing your skin's nutrients while you exfoliate. The whipped texture feels super smooth, making your shower routine actually feel… enjoyable. Like, really enjoyable.

As for the scent, you have delicious options — four, in fact: Pomegranate & Shea Butter, Lavender & Coconut Milk, Oatmeal & Calendula and Brown Sugar & Coconut Butter. These creamy, indulgent body scrubs aim to leave your skin feeling fresh, smooth and seriously pampered after just one use.

We wanted to know if it was really worth the hype, so we asked 27 women from our You Beauty Panel to try out the Pomegranate & Shea Butter scent and share their thoughts. Here's what the numbers showed:

96 per cent of Panellists loved the overall look and feel of the product. 81 per cent felt more hydrated, 88 per cent noticed softer, more radiant skin and 100 per cent enjoyed the scent. 88 per cent would recommend it, and 85 per cent said they'd purchase it themselves!

And now, the part you've been waiting for — their honest reviews:

Megan, 33: "It smells DIVINE!"

"Starting from my initial reaction when I opened this up, it smells DIVINE! This is coming from a pregnant woman with a highly sensitive nose. It smelt so good even my toddler thought so! I jumped straight in the shower to give it a go — it's such a beautifully light whipped sugar butter. It goes on so nicely and is easy to scrub in — but it's not drying at all! It felt quite luxurious and I came out of the shower smelling delicious and having beautifully soft skin. I highly recommend."

Alana, 32: "My skin felt like silk after using it."

"Great! Loved this product. My skin felt like silk after using it. Highly recommend."

Emilia, 42: "Exfoliates the skin so well."

"Amazing product! Not only does it smell sooo good, it exfoliates the skin so well and feels hydrated after."

Natalie, 44: "I really like this."

"I really like this — the smell was lovely, fresh and fruity, and the scrub wasn't too rough, leaving my skin feeling soft and smooth. I also like the colours of the packaging, they would definitely catch my eye on a shelf."

Amelia, 40: "I would repurchase this over a traditional body scrub."

"The Dove Exfoliating Body Polish is a beautiful product. There is a lovely, fragrant smell of pomegranate, but not too overpowering or too much to smell clinical. The consistency is just right, with the small granules soft enough not to damage the skin but to help with pesky ingrown hairs, and not oily at all. I would repurchase this over a traditional body scrub. Using this product is a very pleasurable experience."

Courtney, 39: "Lovely scent that's not overpowering."

"Great! Lovely scent that's not overpowering. Nice texture, not too heavy on the small granules. A little goes a long way, leaving skin feeling fresh, soft and ready to moisturise. Keen to use in summer to get rid of small skin impurities and leftover tan."

Louise, 45: "Perfect as a pre-tan scrub."

"I'm not usually a body scrub person, but this has made me change my mind. The smell is divine. It didn't feel too rough on my skin but left it smooth, soft and moisturised — would be perfect as a pre-tan scrub."

Kristie, 33: "It actually did its job."

"Eight stars. Very pleasant and mild smell which I really liked. A lot of these products are too perfumed. This was very mild but still lovely. Exfoliating was pleasantly strong and granulated — it felt like it actually did its job. I did feel like I needed a fair bit to get the job done, as it doesn't lather up or anything — which made me feel like I needed more than most others I've tried. Left my skin feeling smooth and soft. My husband tried it and even he enjoyed it. Plus, the container makes a great shower toy for your kids when it's emptied!"

Paige, 38: "A great all-rounder."

"The Dove Exfoliating Body Polish is a great all-rounder. It's not too coarse, so it's nice and gentle, with the added bonus of also being hydrating. It really helped the appearance of KP [keratosis pilaris] on my upper arms and kept my legs nice and smooth after shaving. I will definitely be making sure I have a tub of this on hand!"

Devjanee, 38: "This body polish delivers on its promises."

"I'm genuinely happy with this product overall. After just a few uses, my skin felt noticeably softer and I especially love how much smoother shaving becomes when I use it beforehand. The biggest challenge was remembering to add body scrubbing to my shower routine since I'm quite busy — but once I got into the habit, the difference was undeniable."

Amelia, 31: "Goodbye winter skin."

"Smells delicious. I used it before shaving my legs — goodbye reptilian winter skin and hello softness."
