NIVEA Nourishing In Shower Lotion

My teenage daughter and I love this stuff. It makes your skin so soft after showering. (We already use body wash and poufs to help remove dead skin and moisturize our skin, but the level of moisture we get from even "moisturizing" body washes and pretty rough scrubbing with the pouf, doesn't begin to compare to the insane moisture you get from Nivea In-Shower Nourishing Body Lotion.) Once you rinse off, your skin is incredibly soft and supple - perfect for men AND women! (There is also no womanly smell to this product...so I would definitely recommend it to a guy friend who has dry skin or just wants to keep his skin feeling good.) The thing I LOVE about Nivea In-Shower Body Lotion is that you don't have to be precise in your application, like you do with regular lotion. When you put on regular lotion, you have to avoid your clothes and not get any on the floor - even if you apply it nekkid, you still have to wait for the lotion to absorb before getting dressed. Not with this stuff! Since this is meant to be applied in the shower, I just slap it on and rub it in. The bottle says not to put it on your feet because the surface can get slippery - and I can totally understand that if you are applying it in a glazed tub with no safety decals. I shower in a shower (with no tub), and the molded plastic bottom has lines in it, reducing the slippery factor. I do put this on my feet, then am just aware it's there. It's made a real difference on my dry feet. I *try* to remember to rinse out the shower real quick after application, so I don't fall and bust my butt the next time I get in - or, more importantly, my daughter doesn't slip. Once you dry off with your towel, you're good to go. You can immediately get dressed. One of the major pros? You can use the same towel to dry your hair as you do to dry your body, even using this. I haven't noticed that it's left any sort of yuckiness on my towel - and nothing has transferred to my hair. A product is a success if it doesn't create more work...and I consider having to wash one towel, instead of two, a definite success. The only caveat I have found with this? The rinsing that must be done. I would much rather apply this and spend a minute or two rubbing it in, rather than having to turn the water back on so I can rinse off. The water is usually too hot or cold when I turn it back on, and it seems silly to have to re-rinse. I like that you aren't left with a gross residue, and maybe that necessitates the rinsing, but I wish that wasn't the case. Out of 100, I rate the annoyance with the rinsing issue at a 12. Very low - and shouldn't really influence your purchasing decision, I'm just making my thoughts known. (Ya know, since this is my review and all. ;) ) I don't usually put anything on auto-ship, but this item has changed that. It is still the only item I want delivered monthly, as it's the only item I know we will go through on a consistent basis. (We always change shampoos and body washes, so auto-delivery won't work with those.) This stuff has become a part of my normal shower routine - and I don't want to go back to the days of not having it. Great job, Nivea!
