NIVEA In Shower Body Skin Conditioner For Very Dry Skin Review

I love the way this product works. I'm always on the look out for a decent in shower moisturiser. I had quite a problem with dry skin and this product has helped this. I no longer have any issues after using this product. Its reasonably cheap and does what is says it will.

I've only tried the sample of this but really liked it! Loved the lingering smell on my skin and the silky feeling. I'm really slack at moisturizing so can see the potential for this product

This product doesn't work exactly like a moisturiser in that my skin doesn't feel 'moisturised'- but neither does it feel dry and scaly as it often does midwinter. I use this in conjunction with a quick swipe of regular moisturiser every couple of days and while I wouldn't rely on it alone it's definitely helping keep the dry winter skin at bay :)

It has a pleasant, light fragrance and lovely texture, plus it comes in a huge bottle that lasts and lasts.

Both I and my hubby have very dry skins, especially in the lower body. So I’m very picky about buying proper body lotions. The thing about lotions/ creams for extra dry skin is, they are usually thick and takes longer to absorb. So when I saw the advert on TV for this product, I was so excited to try it and lucky me, I managed to grab this from Sylvia park warehouse for a buy one get one free offer. And one went to my shower and the other to my hubby’s shower.

True to its name, Nivea in-shower body lotion has a consistency of a lotion; and a generous palm-ful is enough for my entire body. They don’t specifically say how long it should be left on the skin to be properly absorbed but I usually leave it on my skin as I apply the hair conditioner. So it sits on my skin for about 4-5 minutes before I wash it off and that’s plenty of time for it to be absorbed.

The smell of this is similar to the original “Nivea Creme” which brings up happy memories about my younger days and good smelling mum’s. :) Too bad it doesn't last long.

Bottle is a decent size which is easy to grip onto and open. I think this will last you for about 1-2 months; depends on how much and how often you use it, obviously. For me, I think it’ll last for about couple of months but my hubby’s bottle is already at its life’s end within the first month of use. :)

The first time I used this, it felt really peculiar to touch my skin and it’s a hard to describe feeling. Skin felt both slippery and sticky at the same time if that makes any sense, and it wasn't very pleasant. I felt as if I’m not clean enough. Have you ever used any oil bath bombs that contained too much oil thus you had to wash some off after the bath? Well this was somewhat like that. But thank god, after I pat my skin dry that icky feeling went away. It has been about a month since I added applying this cream to my daily routine and the slippery feeling doesn't bother me anymore. Oh and if you’re wondering if you get your skin wet, would the sticky/slippery feeling come back; ever the experimental me, I waited for 30 minutes or so, and stuck my arm under a faucet and was relieved to find it wasn't sticky or slippery anymore.

All things considered I’d say this is definitely worth the price. Regular price of this 400ml bottle is about NZ$9-10 which is not a high price on itself. But if you manage to buy it during an offer like I did, it’ll be a great bargain.

I love this product, I am super lazy with after shower lotions and this is a quick way to get the moisture your skin needs without the hassle of rubbing in cream after a shower. Especially in Winter!

When this first came out I had to have it, its not the best applying body lotion in winter when its cold so why not moisturize in the shower?

Performance: Not as effective as body lotion, but so much more convenient

Scent: this is a make or break for me and it's not amazing but still its a wash off product.

When I saw this product advertised on Tv, I was instantly curious. I really wanted to give it a go.

I suffer from very dry and sensitive skin ( on my body anyway) and if i dont put body lotion on after the shower, the skin on my legs itches like crazy. Not a very fun experience. So the idea of being able to do this while in the shower was great.

I really liked it, no more itchy legs for me and as i am doing part of my beauty routine whilst in the shower I feel like I am saving so much time in the mornings, which as a single mum is always a bonus!

You dont need a lot, otherwise the skin feels a little too moisturised. And the price is great, I have been spending a lot more than that on my after shower body cremes, so very happy with this

I was really surprised by this product, and did not think it was something I needed, but brought it on special anyway just to give it a go.

I like the design on the bottle; it sits upside down in the shower, making the contents easy to get out, as well as economical as you can get the entire product out, which is handy when the bottle is getting empty. Additionally, the lid is easy to open with wet hands which are an added bonus.

I used the dark blue bottle, and the first thing that hit me when I used this product is the smell. It smells very similar to the Nivea moisturizing lotion, but the smell is more intense and is a really fresh clean smell, which reminds me of spring flowers or something, which was a fragrance I really enjoyed. The conditioner is white, thick and creamy, and is easy to apply!

The thing I really enjoyed about this product is how my skin felt when I put the product on, almost instantly my skin felt silky, and hydrated!! This feeling continued when I got out of the shower and got dressed. Another reason I like this product is I have sensitive skin on my legs, which get really itchy after they are shaved, and this conditioner actually stopped that from happening, as it soothed and moisturised my skin immediately! For this reason alone I would buy this product, even though it is not one of my essential products (yet), it does what it says it will, and my skin is hydrated without needed to be moisturized again after the shower!! I think this product would be good for those in a rush and don’t have time to moisturise, and for those who love to have a long shower!!

The only negative aspect I can highlight is, by the end on the day I noticed my skin had a few dry patches that needed to be moisturized again, so this product is not 100% effective!!

SO I like everyone else have seen this on the TV and thought man that would save some time (I'm pretty lazy when it come to moisturizing my body in general, especially during cold winters). I brought the blue bottle and gave it a go and was super stoked with the results. I have recommended it too so many people. It smells clean and fresh its super easy to use just like a body wash. I love how soft it makes my skin feel and even after I'm out of the shower and dry it hasn't been rubbed away by the towel or anything. Another bonus is that I don't have to wait a bit before dressing, like I do with standard moisturizers due to hating the feeling of having tacky skin.
