NIVEA Touch of Sparkle Moisturizing Body Wash

August 21, 2013

NIVEA Touch of Sparkle Moisturizing Body Wash

NIVEA Touch of Sparkle cream oil body wash is enriched with sparkling diamond powder and has a intoxicating scent of white calla blossoms.  Nivea also offers similar body wash options like touch of harmony, touch of smoothness, touch of happiness, touch of blueberry shower gel, touch of cashmere, touch of serenity & touch of renewal in body scrub.

The shower gel lathers well without the use of a puff and very little of the product is necessary to achieve this. This cream oil body washes feels great on the skin, and rinses off cleanly.

NIVEA Touch of Sparkle Moisturizing Body Wash

This lightly scented body wash leaves your skin soft without leaving it oily. I usually apply lotion after my shower but my skin felt hydrated enough to skip this step but I didn’t since I always take hot showers and that alone can dry out your skin. The NIVEA Touch of Sparkle fragrance lasts long enough to get you through your morning routine but will not overpower your usual fragrance. So go ahead and spritz on your favorite scent!

What are some of your favorite body washes?

As a busy mother of two, my bathroom is often my favorite place. It’s a quiet oasis where I can get away and be alone in my own thoughts.

NIVEA’s Touch of Smoothness smells absolutely great and it’s now one of my favorite body washes.

Review: NIVEA Lip Butters

April 20, 2013

Review: NIVEA Lip Butter

NIVEA Lip Butters have been on the beauty scene for a few weeks now. I was sent several tins for review and if you know me then you know a love a good “lippy” whether that’s a fabulous lipstick, gloss or lip balm.

So far I’ve tested out the Raspberry Rose Kiss Lip Butter and the Caramel Cream Kiss. The balms are packaged in a convenient flat round tin that’s perfect for throwing in a small clutch or purse. These lip butter gives your lips a subtle sheen and has just a bit of color in it but not enough to wear as a gloss. They have a creamy texture and condition with  Shea Butter and Sweet Almond Oil.

NIVEA Lip Butters

These NIVEA lip butters are nicely scented especially the Raspberry Rose Kiss which of has a subtle rose scent. The Caramel Cream Kiss smells a bit like caramel popcorn and the Vanilla & Macadamia Kiss has a slight nutty scent (not too much like Vanilla). However NIVEA does carry an unscented version if you prefer something simple.

These lip balms apply smoothly to the lips thanks to their creamy texture. They’re also very hydrating; keeping my lips thoroughly moisturized for several hours without reapplication. A definite keeper for my purse!

Overall, I loved these lips butters: They are affordably priced at about $5.49 per tin! They are uber hydrating and soft lips are a great accessory. These lips butter do an excellent job at keep chapped lips at bay with ingredients like Shea Butter and Almond Oil. And they smell really nice which entices me to use them constantly!

Have you tried NIVEA lips butters?

NIVEA wants everyone to have touchable skin because great skin makes us feel more confident and beautiful. So they’ve developed products with the idea of “touch” in mind.

NIVEA is encouraging everyone to give up they’re regular lotion for 7 days and swap it for NIVEA Smooth Sensation Body Lotion. This lightweight lotion has shea butter, gycerin and Hydra IQ Technology to moisturize all day. I’m on Day 2 of the challenge, I normally use shea butter and a combination of various oils and lotions so this challenge should prove interesting!

If you want to give the challenge a shot and try to win a 13.4 oz bottle of NIVEA Smooth Sensation Body Lotion then use the hashtage#SHARETHESENSATION on twitter and tweet why you want to try NIVEA with a photo of who you will share your more touchable skin with.
