After having yet again gone over the luggage weight allowance for my suitcase, I had to leave behind lots of my beauty products including my body moisturiser. This meant that the first day of my holiday was, as usual, spent at the local supermarket repurchasing the cheapest alternatives I could find. As for a body moisturiser, the cheapest I could find was the Express Hydration Body Lotion by Nivea. I had previously owned a different body moisturiser by Nivea and found it to be very greasy on the skin so I didn't hold out high hopes for this one but I didn't have the funds with me to choose anything else. What does the product do? The ...  Read the complete review

It was my Birthday in June and I was brought a basket of toiletry goodies and in there was a bottle of Nivea Express Hydration Body Lotion. I have now been using it for 6 weeks and decided it's time to review. **Bottle It's in an attractive white, curvy 250ml bottle with the well known blue "Nivea" writing. On the top there is a flip top lid which secures nicely after use. The front of the bottle is informative without boring or bogged down with writing. **Use I tend to use this within an hour of getting out of the bath/shower and as claimed it does absorb within seconds. I try to use it everyday ...  Read the complete review

One of the most important things in my daily skincare regime is a decent body moisturiser. A lot of the moisturisers I have tried in my time have taken forever to sink in which in itself I don't mind but when you're stuck for time, a faster absorbing lotion is more convenient. My skin is usually ok but can get a little dry at times, especially when its cold. One of my friends had recommended this very moisturiser to me days before I bought it so when spotted it in my local Co-op at half price, I picked up two. Here is my review for Nivea Express Hydration Body Lotion for Normal to Dry skin: 1. The Smell: For me this is the most important factor when ...  Read the complete review

As I've grown older and now I'm in my early fifties, I have found that my skin lacks moisture more now than it ever did before. I have to use a body lotion during the whole of the year otherwise my skin does suffer, especially on those areas that are most exposed to the elements. My chest area has especially shown signs of lack of moisture and dehydration as the years have passed. I have tried different sort of lotions and moisturisers but sometimes the old ones are the best and I seem to revert back to things I used to use years ago, Nivea being a good example. Nivea make a lot of products now than they used to do years ago and now there are so many for us to choose  Read the complete review

My mum actually bought this for me in a Nivea express hydration set for Christmas where this lotion was accompanied by the lip balm and hand cream from the same range. I've no idea what she paid for the set but I can't imagine it was more than £5. On its own you can expect to pay somewhere around £2 for this lotion full price. I do suffer with dry skin and this is mainly a problem on my feet but also on my legs, especially straight after shaving them. Therefore I was quite sure that this product would be brilliant to use after shaving my legs. As it is a Nivea product I did have high expectations. The product comes in a bottle exactly the same as ...  Read the complete review
