NIVEA In Shower Body Skin Conditioner For Very Dry Skin Review

Its not bad, but its not amazing. Got mine for free in a black box so can't complain about a free product, but found it was quite pricey when I went to buy it again. Handy for my partner who is too lazy to moisturise after the shower though!!

I remember wanting to try this out when it first came out. Years ago now. I loved the idea of not having to moisturise because some days I just couldn't be bothered. It claims it moisturises but it is not moisturising at all, it just stuck to my skin and was annoying to rub off. Smells nice but doesn't moisturise.

I have this at work in my gym bag to reduce time after exercise, I like that I can use it for both and not dry out my skin having more than one shower.

Smells great! And I don't find it too oily or slippery!

I got this sample size in a black box a while ago and I was eager to try it after hearing Shaaanxo talk about it. I must say I was slightly disappointed, while it seems like a good idea to apply a body product in the shower, I just don't feel like the mousturising factor lasts and when it sinks into skin it leaves what appears to be a sticky residue. I like my mousturisers to sink into the skin quickly and don't like the residue it leaves on the skin. The packaging is fairly standard, comes in a blue bottle with white and blue writing and is fairly straight foward to use. Overall i don't think this product really mousturised and felt sticky on the skin it does smell nice but I wouldn't repurchase.

I rate this low because as others have said, there seems to be a sort of greasy or sticky residue left over in the shower / bath after use. I tried it long ago so they may have improved it by then but I also find Nivea to have pore clogging additives and other things that I don't think are that good for your skin such as petroleum/mineral oil. It smells Okay not amazing though. The one I tried was in a white bottle like the picture above I only got to try it a little bit then it like, dissappeared strangely. Anyway it seems to leave a coating perhaps a protective layer on your skin but I'm not satisfied that it absorbs you'll probably have better luck putting it on your body in the bath and letting it sit on your skin before you wash it off.

This is such a great idea and I’m surprised that others haven’t caught on too! It’s so easy to use and you can never go wrong with the classic Nivea scents. I would definitely look into getting this, the next time you’re at the supermarket as you won’t regret it.

I recieved a sample of this to try and I’m glad I got to sample before buying because it isn’t for me. First of all I found the scent overwhelming, secondly I felt like I needed to use a lot of it to be effective because I felt as though the water was washing it away too quickly to give it time to absorb. It left the bottom of my shower very slippery. As others had mentioned, I too felt sticky once dry rather than moisturised. I think I’ll stick to moisturising after a shower!
