NIVEA In Shower Body Skin Conditioner For Very Dry Skin Review

Was given this as gift to try, and I waited awhile before I tried it. I'm now two thirds of the way through, and still undecided. Its a really thick cream, which I'm finding harder and harder to squeeze out of the bottle, especially with wet hands under the shower. Smell's like Nivea Cold Cream that Mum used to use when I was a child, which is neither pleasant nor unpleasant. There is quite a bit of product waste, you really need the shower off you when you apply, or it just melts away. That said, I do find this leaves a nice smooth finish after a shower, and given the colder mornings in winter, its great to moisturise 'in shower' instead standing in the colder hurrying for a cream to dry before I can get changed. Would consider buying again if the bottle was easier to use.

This is a really nice product that does moisturise well but the big flaw for me is that it takes too long to use in the shower (I prefer to have a quick shower and not have to wait around for a product to "develop" ). The fragrance is really nice but because of the time factor I would not use again. I don't recommend this product for busy people or people who have rush and go showers!

Also, the bottle is quite firm and sometimes it is hard to get product out once the bottle is half empty. Perhaps the packaging can be improved also.

I initially thought this would be troublesome and time-consuming as you have to apply the product after you have soaped. But I was surprised at how easy it was to use. I found it most effective if you Wipe the excess water off your body with your hands before applying the product. You only have to use a small amount and it goes a long way. All in all, I thought it was pretty good. My skin certainly felt silky smooth afterward as well. Not sure if I would continue using this as I prefer to moisturise after I get out of the shower still.

Does what it said it would do and is easy to use but I just found that it was hard to get into my routine in the morning. Left a kind of weird slimy feeling on my body (but I think this is the cream which is supposed to be left on to moisturise your skin). Think I just prefer the traditional way of moisturising and also that my normal moisturiser smells a lot nicer!

I really wanted this to work. But it just didn't work for me.

I do like that it smells nice - refreshing but not overpowering. I like that it comes in a decent size package that lasts a good while. I also like that it didn't dry out my skin like some shower products can do. And I like the idea of this product - reducing the steps needed to get ready in the morning. But it just didn't work well enough to replace a moisturiser for me.

I get really dry skin especially in winter so I of course wanted to try this product out. And don't get me wrong, it felt nice whilst in the shower. The moisturising just didn't last out of the shower on my skin. I still have to use a body butter to keep my skin moisturised all day.

Instead, this works more as a body wash for me - a body wash that doesn't dry out your skin. So on this alone I wouldn't repurchase this product. It just didn't work as amazingly on my skin as it has done for others (who I am insanely jealous of)!

I bought it after I saw the commercial on TV. The idea is very novel, a body conditioner. It feels good right after the shower, but the effect is not as long lasting as regular body lotion. I would probably use it during the summer.

I used this for a week or two and strated getting massive white heads on my back and around my neck (even though i washed it throughouly) which was unfortunate. i gave it to my boyfriend and he has bad acne on his arms and it seemed to clear it up, so who knows hahahaha downside is that you tend to use a lot of it, luckily the bottles massive!!

it does leave a residue on the floor of the shower that needs to be scrubbed off, such a hazard!

I received a free sample of this in the mail and thought at the time how pointless it was. It's easy to use and does a good job of making the skin feel silky and smooth but is no quicker than putting on skin moisuriser after your shower. And it smells like Nivea, which is great if you like the smell, all the time, every day.

I really wanted to love this as it would be such a timesaving product. But alas it as not for me. The scent and feel of the product was pleasant enough but I found it difficult to shower and apply. I found it washed of rather than rubbed in. Didn't really notice moisturized skin after showering. This gal will be sticking to the shower/wash, and then moisturise routine.
