Review: Nivea Oil in Lotion Orange Blossom & Avocado Oil

I've always loved Nivea body lotions, because they just have the perfect mix of nourishing lotion and lightweight feel on the skin. I've tried a few version by now and I'll list reviews on the bottom of this post. Today I'm talking about the latest version of their oil in lotion scent that is Nivea Oil in Lotion Orange Blossom & Avocado Oil. 


Packaging

By now you're probably used to typical Nivea blue plastic packaging with dark blue top and Nivea sign on it. I like that these bottles have a slant top so that when you're finishing the product, you can just place it on its head and get out every last bit of it. No waste here. 

In it is 200 ml of product and the price is 3.69€.


Formula

Their oil in lotion range is known for adding oil into the lotion formula which makes it feel nourishing, but doesn't feel greasy on the skin. Formula is like a lightweight milky white lotion that has smooth glide on the skin. It doesn't feel greasy or thick in any way, but still leaves on your skin that nourishing layer that just feels so good. It doesn't look shiny and it absorbs quickly. You can dress up and go about your day in the matter of seconds.



Orange Blossom & Avocado Oil is new version that is enriched with the scent of orange blossoms. Nivea even has notes that they've put into the scent.

Top notes: lemon sorbet, oranges and water bamboo.
Middle notes: orange blossoms, neroli and white magnolia
Base notes: powdery notes, cashmere wood and creamy sandalwood.

I definitely smell some orange zest in the beginning. After a few seconds it turns more floral and then it slowly becomes slightly more powdery sweet. It's a lovely scent, but it doesn't linger on the body for a long time. 


Performance

Nivea says that it should moisturize the skin for 24 hours. I don't know about you, but I take a shower after like 12 hours. I usually apply it in the morning and in the evening, when I take a shower, I can still feel it on my skin as a protective nourishing layer that needs to be washed off with soap. It's definitely moisturizing on the skin and in a way also nourishing, because it protects the skin and makes it soft

To sum up, I like it. It has that lightweight lotion formula, but a lovely nourishing feel on the skin. The scent is nice, although it doesn't stay on the skin for long, but the lotion is long lasting on the skin and it protects it while also keeping it moisturized. Plus the price is pretty affordable.
