Nivea Silky Shimmer Lotion

Pros: Moisture all day long.
Cons: Does not make all skin types shimmer.

The first time I used a Nivea product was about 1953 while living in Germany with my parents. I used to love the smell of the creamy body moisturizer that used to be packaged in a round blue tin with white writing. As I remember for years this was the ...

Pros: Light, easily applied, not too greasy, gives a nice glow to your skin.
Cons: You'll have a glow on your clothes if you don't let it dry first.

I bought Nivea Silky Shimmer Lotion after reading several reviews on Epinions. Target is featuring a 13.5 ounce bottle for only $10.00, vs. their usual price of $6.00 for a 7 ounce bottle, so the larger size is a bargain. Rather than repeat the ...

Pros: subtle gold shimmer, okay scent, absorbs quick, hides flaws
Cons: rubs off your palms, a bit expensive

I never even heard of this product until I was visiting someone's beauty section in their personal website. They said that this lotion made their skin look gorgeous under any light, so I decided to try it. The Product Discover Nivea Body Silky ...

Pros: There is eventually a shimmer, nice fragrance
Cons: Shimmer is slight, potential to leave a residue, has to dry on skin

When you first watch the commercial on television, it's really appealing. The model appears to have this REALLY intense radiance,and her body seems to just glow as soon as she applies a portion of the lotion to a body part. Not to mention the soft-toned v ...

Pros: gives skin a beautiful golden shimmer, nice scent
Cons: can get messy, price

Well it is almost winter time and I have been searching for something to extend my tan a little longer. Self-tanners just don't look natural on me, and bronzers don't show up. After hearing about Nivea Silky Shimmer Lotion I saw it at Walgreens ...

Pros: Excellent skin cream, non-greasy, adds a great glow to your skin.
Cons: Would not work well on someone with oily skin who needs a matte finish instead.

This is one of my favorite accidental purchases. I'm a fan of nivea's face and body cream formula that I usually buy in France. Couldn't find it here anywhere, and thought I'd try this instead. Nivea's Silky Shimmer Lotion was a huge surprise; not on ...

Pros: Moisturizes, smoothes skin, leaves a trace of warm, skin-enhancing color that makes skin look pretty.
Cons: Need to distribute evenly so the shimmer isn't clumped, expensive-ish for a drugstore lotion.

I saw a magazine ad for Nivea's new Silky Shimmer Lotion in the spring and was intrigued by the advertising claims. "Natural Reflecting Pigments", huh? Sounds good. At my next trip to Walgreen's Pharmacy, I headed over to the Beauty section (alright, I...

Pros: Light gold shimmer, inexpensive, moisturises skin
Cons: The shimmer wasn't visible at night, only under sunlight, takes 2 coats for shimmer

Over the last year or so I've become a little glitter queen. I'm loving all the shimmery, glittery, shiny products that have been coming out. Mostly I like to apply these products to my chest, shoulders and legs.

I had seen Nivea Shimmering...

Pros: Moisturizes nicely, not greasy, absorbs quickly, improves look of skin
Cons: Gold color can be too much, must wash hands after applying, shows on white clothing

As soon as I heard about Nivea Silky Shimmer Lotion, I knew it would be something I wanted to try, despite the fact that I had never tried any Nivea lotions. I love to try new body lotions, and I also love products with shimmer in them....

Pros: Not many, folks -- not many.
Cons: Yucky gold tone, "shimmer" can be spread unevenly, not for cool-toned skin

Introduction

This is a negative review, meaning I so disliked this product that I can barely stand to be objective. I warn you of this in advance, and apologize for my sarcasm at times, but I know that you, dear reader, understand that...

Pros: Fabulous look for any skin tone!
Cons: Smudges when dry.

I'm a sucker for "the hook". An enticing 30 second blurb for the 5 o'clock news, for 20/20, for Primetime Live - I'm hooked. Same thing for anything having to do with beauty and cosmetics. I saw a TV commercial for this product and was hooked. I went...

Pros: Smells good, moisturizes and stays that way all day!
Cons: None

I am a lotion freak, and when summer comes around, I always set out for the best lotion because naturally it's a time when more skin will be revealed! My bathroom is completely full of the various lotions that I've tried over several months, all...

Pros: Skin stays soft, leaves a nice shimmer
Cons: could smell better

I am getting married next year so I have been buying a lot of bridal magazines. One Magazine had a free sample of the Nivea silky shimmer. I didn't try it out right away but when I did I was very impressed, My skin was so soft and I just loved the...

Pros: Shimmery without overdoing it
Cons: None!

It seems as though every month my fiance and I have been traveling to Denver, CO, for one reason or another. This time it was to see a concert and also visit his parents in their new home.

Needless to say, my skin is incredibly pale and...
