Product Review: Nivea Express Hydration Body Lotion

Reviewer: Cinnamon Kitten

Brand: Nivea
Name: : Express Hydration Body Lotion
Size: 400 ml / 13.5 fl oz
Price: approx. $9 CAD

Extra fast and long-lasting moisture for normal to dry skin, this body lotion is enriched with sea minerals and features Nivea's exclusive Hydra IQ Technology.

Leaves skin soft and supple and delicately scented in a blue lotus scent.

To Purr About:
- a little more gel like than most lotions
- absorbs very quickly
- leaves skin soft and hydrated
- light fragrance is very subtle

Claws Out:
- sometimes a little sticky after application

Final Comments:
This Nivea "Express" lotion definitely lives up to its name and absorbs very quickly. I think part of its difference is that it has almost a gel-like texture compared to most other lotions, which are more creamy. The light blue lotus scent is pleasant, although some people may prefer an unscented version.

The only thing I found was that sometimes after applying the lotion and letting it absorb, I find that there's a little bit left on my skin that hasn't been absorbed and becomes a little "sticky" (it's hard to describe). It's not greasy, just a slight rubbery-sticky feeling that I don't really care for.

Other than that though, this lotion does really do a good job moisturizing dry skin.
