Pros: Good moisturizing qualities.
Cons: Poor exfoliation.
The Bottom Line: I would use this product as a regular body wash but not as a regular exfoliant.

| 42ENGLISH's Full Review: Dial Daily Care Gentle Exfoliant Body Wash |
Dial Daily Care…hmmmm…a product I hadn’t been acquainted with before but Dial Daily Care Body Wash Gentle Exfoliant had 50 percent more fore the 12 oz price. I like exfoliant body washes and this also contained moisture beads. I also like a good deal so how could I resist. For $3.60 I bought an 18 oz bottle…not bad.
Ingredients:
Water, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Sulfosuccinate, Acrylates Copolymer, PEG-8, Fragrance, Polyquaternium 10, PEG-7, Glycerin Cocoate, Cocoglucoside (And) Glyceryl Oleate, Microscrystalline Wax, Jojoba Esters, DMDM Hydantoin, Sodium Hydroxide, Tetrasodium EDTA, Sodium Chloride, Green 3 (CI 42053), Blue 1 (CI 42090), Chromium Hydroxide Green (CI 77289), Red 30 (CI 73360), Talc (C177718), Ultramarines (CI 77007)
This product comes in an 18oz clear plastic bottle with a flip-top cap. The product is a clear bluish green gel filled with exfoliant and moisture beads.

My Experience:
Of course the main reason I bought this product was the price but I wasn’t familiar with this brand and was a bit dubious about its performance. However, when applied to the sponge, there are millions od tiny exfoliant and moisture beads and when water is added it foams up to a rich, rich lather.
I was anxious to find out about its exfoliant qualities as that is important to me. It didn’t perform very well in that area, in fact, it was void of exfoliants as far as I was concerned. Looking at the ingredients I don’t see any of the most popular exfoliants used in body washes and can’t identify one listed.
Even so, the moisture beads popped easily and did distribute a nice moisturizer to the skin making it feel soft and smooth. And even though it seems there are millions of beads in one application, I did not have a problem rinsing. By the end of my shower, the beads were practically gone. My skin felt clean but I like a good scrub when I shower and this product didn’t even give a gentle scrub.
Conclusion:
Although Dial Daily Care Body Wash Gentle Exfoliant did do a good job cleaning and moisturizing my skin, I felt it was weak as an exfoliant. The scent is very refreshing and smells clean and vibrant….the kind that wakes you up in the morning. The price was great so I can’t fuss too much. I will keep this bottle in reserve as a wash but not as an effective exfoliant.
I am going to give this product two stars only because its performance as a gentle exfoliator is very poor.
