Dove is a globally recognized personal care brand, celebrated for its focus on moisturizing and gentle care. The brand was originally launched in the United States in 1957 by Lever Brothers, introduced as a revolutionary 'Beauty Bar' that contained one-quarter moisturizing cream, distinguishing it from traditional drying soaps. This chemical breakthrough, developed by Vincent Lamberti, laid the foundation for the brand's identity as a 'caregiver' in the hygiene sector.

Over the decades, Dove expanded from its signature cleansing bars into a vast portfolio including body washes, deodorants, and hair care products like the 'Intensive Repair' shampoo. The brand is currently owned by Unilever, a British multinational consumer goods giant. Unilever’s research and development, particularly for hair care, is often centered at its Port Sunlight facility in the UK, though the actual manufacturing of Dove products occurs in numerous locations around the world, including the US, Mexico, Germany, India, and Brazil, ensuring local availability and distribution across more than 150 countries.
