I recently tried the Nivea in shower body skin conditioner. It took a bit of getting use to using it but once i got into the habit it was good. I was always moisturising when i got out of the shower so this seemed like a good idea especially in winter when you just want to get out & then dressed. It certainly felt lovely & silky when on my skin & rinsed off well. It did make bottom of shower quite slippery but it does state this on the bottle.I dont think it kept my skin as soft as applying after a shower so this is why i have gone back to my usual after shower moisturising. I would still use it again. The bottle was easy to use in the shower & the fragrance was soft..

Tips: rinse bottom of shower as can be slippery
I had never heard about this or even knew a shower conditioner existed until I won this a few months back, I do get dry skin especially on my legs and I was so thrilled to give this a go.
The first few attempts were tricky as it does get slippery and messy, words of advice, don't apply this to your feet in the shower as you will fall over and hurt yourself. What worked for me was turning the shower off, applying it to my body and then turning the shower back on and rinsing off. I love to use this after ive shaved my legs, it makes them feel amazing! It leaves a light Nivea signature scent on your skin and it keeps it smooth for hours. I wouldn't recommend it to people with sensitive skin, my daughter tried this and it left her with a nasty rash all over her body.
This product did do what it said it would but in a weird way. After got out of the shower it left my skin vey oily like I had just applied moisturiser. You need to almost dab or air dry your skin because if you just rub your legs, it will remove the product.
I couldn't really understand what the difference between using an in-shower vs. out-of-shower moisturiser, and I can't say this is one that I normally would have bought. I got this as part of a box, and I'm pretty glad I did.
The bottle is really large, which is great - I can easily grab it when I'm in the shower, and it's really easy to hang on to (unlike my shampoo bottle, which I'm forever dropping ;))
It has a really nice scent, I don't know how to describe it except to say it has a lotion-y smell to it - very pleasant.
The first time I used it, I have to admit it sure was easy, maybe easier than using an out-of-shower lotion. It went on quick and easy - I was a little surprised that I had to rinse it off though, what's in it that requires washing it off? I was also unsure of how long to leave it on for, there's no real direction on the bottle so I immediately washed it off. I've left it on a bit longer in subsequent showers and that seems to work better than washing it right off.
I have noticed my skin is softer after regular use, and as I said - it is quite easy to use. I'd probably use it again if I saw it on sale, but I don't know if it's one that I'd get at full price from a shop. Not that it's expensive, it's just something I'd be more likely to buy on sale and feel I'd gotten a great deal on.
if you like doing everything in the shower, this will be good for you. I dont have particularly dy skin, so I didnt see any huge benefits, however it did moisturise. The bottle is huge & i like anything that sits upside down with a flip cap for easy use & maximum product usage. It is very controlled coming out, which is a little frustrating, however you wont waste product. It's a nice enough product, however I dont see any amazing benefits - This would probably be different if I had issues with dry skin. Applying moisturiser on after I am dry is just as fast, and if it was a choice between normal moisturiser & the In Shower Body Skin Conditioner, I would go with the normal moisturiser.
When it comes to moisturising my body I usually believe that the more moisturing a product is the better. I tried both versions of NIVEA In Shower Body Skin Conditioner and I have to say that while this was super-fast, effective and easy to apply, when I compare it to the lighter version I much preferred the lighter one (which really surprised me). I didn't find that this made my skin feel any more moisturised than the lighter version and I found the consistency of this one to be a bit thicker, which I didn't prefer (surprisingly again) and the fragrance to be less appealing in comparison. Having said all that, if I hadn't also tried the lighter version I would probably have raved about how great this one was and given it a higher score because I love that I can put it on in the shower so quickly and easily and it effectively moisturises my body without any stickiness at all. A little goes a VERY long way so a bottle lasts an incredibly long time, which makes this a really budget-friendly option.
I was keen to try this as I very rarely moisturise (I don't find my skin gets overly dry) - this seemed like a fantastic idea, a way for me to increase my moisturising without the hassle of waiting for it to dry on my skin outside of the shower.
Great value for money, a huge bottle for the price. Its creamy and spreads over skin easily, with a pleasant aroma. I found that my skin did feel a little softer after using, but that didn't last for too long. It was great to be able to feel so soft but also dry stepping out of the shower.
I don't think I would be buying this again, purely because the results were not significant enough for me. Also as someone whose skin reacts to the strangest of things I did find myself feeling quite itchy after the first couple of applications, unsure if it was due to this product, but does leave me dubious to continue using it.
Tips: Makes the shower slippery so make sure to clean well!
This is a big bottle the flip top lid is on the bottom so it sits on the lid so no shaking this all the stuff is there ready to use. This is a nice shape to hold fat at the bottom and thinner at the top it's big but surprisingly easy to hold even with slippery hands. This is a white thick cream it does have a soft fresh powdery scent, I do like the fragrance, it doesn't linger so no inter mingling with my perfume. So I wash myself with my usual body wash and while I'm still in the shower not standing directly under the water I smooth this over my skin and then rinse this off and dry. This does go really nice on wet skin and is easy to rub around and rinse off. He he it does nearly feel a little naughty standing there rubbing it all over. So a treat for my senses and my skin. I must admit it's nice to dry myself get dressed and easily slip into my clothes and no fighting jeans that are grabbing my skin because of a little bit off moisturiser is left on my skin making it tacky. This was so nice to try and I had no irritation especially after shaving and my skin felt soft using this, it did feel like it was coated with a barrier more than it had a cream soak in. My shower was very slippery when I used this and took a bit to clean it as well. I love the concept of this and I will use this now and then.
I am really enjoying this moisturiser. I've always been quite slack at moisturising my body, and usually have piles of body butters and other lotions sitting around unused. I love that this is an in-shower moisturiser, and is really easy to use.
The scent is quite light, and doesn't last (which isn't necessarily a bad thing), and the packaging is awesome. It's so easy to grab the bottle, flip the lid open and slather some on. The price of $8 for such a massive bottle is a big plus too.
I experimented with this quite a bit, to see if it did make a difference. I applied it to one leg but not the other for a good 2 weeks, and could notice the difference. It leaves skin feeling much softer, and very smooth. I love it!
It's easy to apply, and could even be used in place of a shower gel if you were in a huge rush. The cream smooths into your skin easily, and washes off without any hassles either.
The only bad thing is that the packaging is difficult to use once you have used 2/3 of the lotion. The last bits are hard to get out, and the packaging is the problem.
I have tried this product a few times, it definitely leaves you feeling moisturised in the shower but for me i dont really like that slimy feeling you have afterwards like the product has not washed off properly, it leaves me feeling not as clean as i want to after a shower
Tips: this is meant for someone that loves a thick and creamy moisturizing body wash that sticks to your skin, not for somebody who likes to be squeaky clean
