I was really excitied to try this as I am lazy when it comes to using moisturiser after showering. Although my skin did feel more moisturised after using it, it was nowhere near as moisturised as using an actual moisturiser. I will continue to use this product until the bottle is empty but I won't buy any more. I will stop being so lazy and ensure I use actual moisturiser.

I think it's a great product although I'm slightly (okay not slightly, very peeved) with the advertising with "I can't believe no one's thought of it before!" They have, it's the lush rose argan body conditioner, it came out a year earlier and won a bunch of awards. not only that but I can't see how it's a time saver. You take the same action of moisturing, but in the shower and then have the added step of rinsing it off. Wouldn't it be easier to just have a shower as normal and then moisturise after with Nivea lotion and NOT have to rinse it off?
Tips: Use a normal moisturiser after the shower and not worry about rinsing any product off.
I was super excited when I got this but it left my skin feeling really rubbery and gross after showering, it does moisturise my skin, but doesn't leave it with the soft feeling I was expecting.
I didn't feel the moisturizing benefits were as significant as advertised. In fact, once I'd "pat dried" myself, I didn't notice much of difference. The concept is a good one though, very convenient but just needs more noticeable results.
Tips: More moisturizing capabilities.
When initially seeing the advertisement on television for it i was immediately curious to see what all the fuss was about and to see whether it would really hydrate and moisturise your skin.
I felt it did the job but not 100%, i did continue to use moisturiser after finishing in the shower as i felt it did leave my skin still feeling somewhat dry.
The lid did leak a bit when left in the shower.
I wouldn't buy this product again, now i've tried and tested it i'll stick to my trusty Vaseline :)
I thought this was a great idea as I have very dry skin and suffer from eczema. I thought it would be great to use this as it seemed to be a product aimed at my skin type. I was wrong. I tried it for over a week being someone who doesn't want to waste product but in the end I just gave up.
I was washing with body wash and then using this product and then I still had to moisturise after my shower anyway because I found it didnt really soak in very well. So in the end using this was just an extra step I didn't need. This product was just not for me.
This was really promoted as something new and revolutionary, but to be honest I was disappointed. For a start, it's nothing new - other companies have been selling in shower body conditioners for a long time. Like all products, it has it's pros and cons:
PROS: - Does a reasonable job of moisturising your skin - Good concept if you are time poor and don't usually moisturise
CONS: - It leaves your shower floor super slippery - The scent is pretty average - it has that generic Nivea smell. If I'm going to use moisturiser (either in shower or regular) I want it to have a nice scent. - It doesn't actually save a whole lot of time. Like, maybe 2-3 minutes?
Overall I feel like (compared to other shower body conditioners I've used) the NIVEA In Shower Body Skin Conditioner For Very Dry Skin was pretty average. Personally, I'll be sticking to my regular out of shower moisturiser.
Tips: Make sure you have a non-slip bath mat (or are prepared to clean your shower a couple of times a week) - this stuff makes it slippery, especially if there is more than one person using it!
Despite the promises made this product did disappoint me. The lotion does not do as well as applying the traditional way. The bottle is too big to hold comfortably and apply at the same time. Nivea is my favourite brand but this product will not make my shopping list again.
I have normal to dry skin, so when this came out I had to try it-I was sold on the fact that it was to be used in the shower-saving time. It does leave my skin feeling soft but i feel greasy even after washing it off. my hands felt like they had a slight film on them. It has a slight clean scent to it,which is nice I do like the ease of use of the pump but I don't think I will repurchase as there are other quick options out there these days
I went out to get this product and ive been using it twice a day and my skin is still dry. I got the white bottle and it did feel like it was working but about two hours later my skin looked dull and dry. I will be sticking to my old moisturiser.
