NIVEA In Shower Body Skin Conditioner For Very Dry Skin Review

Was very very disappointed with this product. It claimed to moisture your skin without leaving any residue..... what a lie. I followed the directions & not only did my skin feel sticky & yuck but it took me 2 days to get the residue off my shower floor. It made it extremely slippery & I just about fell over on more than 1 occassion.

I found that although this works, when it washes off it leaves the floor of the shower slippery, which is not a good thing, I had to wipe out the shower floor after every use.

Nivea moisturiser isnt great in my opinion, the feel of it is heavy and its like you cant rub evenly. it kind of just stays in the same spot. or you have to really smooth it out. Its quite plan in my opinion.

Initially after the first couple of uses I was in love with this product but after the novelty wore off I realised that it wasn't moisturising my skin at all and left a very thin veil of slick over the shower floor that when clean day came around was a pain to get completely off.

The scent is clean and pleasant, my skin firstly felt very hydrated and soft, but then by the end of the week I noticed that odd areas were getting patchy, dry and even flaky. As a avid water drinker and moderately healthy with diet I knew it was that darn in shower product.

So nope that will not be a repurchase product. Much prefer using a natural oil after a shower to restore my natural balance

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 pretty dry skin, so am always on the look out for new products to help with it. I got a sample of this, and tried it last night. What a disappointment. First off, it smelled like men's deodorant which is not ideal for a product that I'd imagine mostly women would use. Unscented would be much better, or a more feminine scent. Then I rubbed it on, and washed off as instructed. I felt a bit sticky afterwards, and had to wait a while to get dressed which was not great. I feel a bit less dry today, which I suppose is good, but I'd certainly never choose this over any other generic body moisturiser. A real shame, for something that had the prospect of being a very cool and handy product.

Just tried my sample - I'll never, ever use this again (I threw the second sample away!)

I found it thick, gloopy, and when I rubbed it all over, it left a rubbery film on my skin. Had to use the cheap nasty gym soap in the dispenser on the wall to wash it off. Some got in my hair and now I have greasy patches in my hair. And the smell is not pleasant. Even after washing it off, when I towelled myself dry I felt slippery and moist (not moisturised, but moist, like sweaty...), and my clothes stuck to me.

I'll keep to moisturising after my shower!

I was really excited to use this product as I have very dry skin,and I am sick of having to moisturise daily,it seemed too good to be true,and unfortunately for me it was,I really noticed no difference to my skin and still had to apply moisturiser after my shower ,it may work well for those with Mildly dry skin,also I would like to see the bottle changed to a pump,as I have arthritis in my hands I found it very hard to squeeze out and caused me pain,so for me it was not a good buy and I would not purchase again.

I got a couple of free sample sachets to try and found them fairly underwhelming. The sachets weren't big enough to moisturise my whole body so you would have to use quite a lot. My skin didn't feel particularly soft or different after the shower. It didn't seem worth the hassle of putting it on for the minimal difference it made. I'd rather use a shower oil to cleanse and moisturise in one go.

This product didn't really do it for me, and I am a big fan of Nivea. It felt a bit slimey in the shower and I didn't feel my skin was particularly moisturised afterwards. I wouldn't go out of my way to buy this one again.
