Editor's Summary
I've been using the Nivea Rose Cream shower gel daily for a while now, but my initial excitement quickly fizzled out. While it's gentle on my skin and leaves it feeling super soft, I'm not blown away by the build quality or value for money. The 500ml bottle is a decent size, but I feel like I'm paying too much for a product that's just average. Don't get me wrong, it's not a total letdown, but it's not worth the hype either. If you're on the hunt for a budget-friendly shower gel, you might want to consider other options. I've been using it for a while, and I've noticed it's easy to use – just lather and rinse. Plus, it's infused with almond oil for added moisturizing benefits. The subtle rose scent is a nice touch, too.

Appearance and packaging:
The NIVEA 'Rose Cream' Shower Gel comes in a large, sleek bottle that's characteristic of the brand. The white plastic bottle has the product name and a lovely rose design on the front, and it's clear that it's packed with vitamins.
The back of the bottle is a different story – it's covered in blue text with all the essential information about the product and the brand. You can find the ingredients, properties, shelf life, and more.
I love the plastic cap on this Nivea shower gel – it's a nice blue color with the brand logo on it. The cap opens with a flip-top mechanism, which is super convenient. Underneath, there's a hole that lets the gel flow out really well.
Ingredients:
Aqua, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Glycol Distearate, PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis Oil, Glycerin, Sodium Chloride, Laureth-4, Citric Acid, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, PEG-200 Hydrogenated Glyceryl Palmate, Sodium Benzoate, Benzyl Alcohol, Parfum.
I'm not a fan of the artificial ingredients in this shower gel – there are a few components that don't exactly align with my eco-friendly values.
My impressions and experience with using it:
I used to be a huge fan of Nivea, but now I'm more open to trying out different brands. This shower gel comes in different sizes, and I opted for the 500ml bottle because I use it a lot during the summer months. I've been using it daily, several times a day.
The gel has a nice texture – it's not too runny like water, but not too thick either. The color is a beautiful, translucent white with a pearlescent sheen to it. For me, the scent of the shower gel is really important, and this one has a rose fragrance. At first, I thought it was going to be a really interesting and pleasant scent, but to be honest, it's just okay. It's a floral scent with a hint of sweetness and some deeper notes. Rose is definitely present, but it's not overpowering. To me, the scent is just simple and not bad, but not wow-worthy either.
I was surprised by how quickly a rich lather forms when you squirt a bit of gel onto your palm and add water. It's not a huge amount, but it's definitely fragrant and feels super gentle.
But if you squeeze a single drop onto a loofah, you get a ton of lather. It's amazing how much foam you can get out of such a small amount of gel.
The gel is super economical – you only need a tiny bit to get a huge amount of lather. The lather itself is incredibly soft and airy, and it leaves my skin feeling squeaky clean. The loofah and lather combo is super gentle, and it even leaves a lovely floral scent in the bathroom.
The gel rinses off completely with water, leaving no residue behind. My skin feels super soft and hydrated after using it, and there's no tightness or dryness at all. It's clear that this gel has some serious moisturizing properties.
This NIVEA 'Rose Cream' body wash has been a hit with the whole family, and the size is just right. It's great value for money, and the packaging is super stylish. I love the texture – it's not too runny, and it's not too thick. It's just right. I've also been impressed by how gentle it is – it doesn't irritate my skin at all, and it leaves it feeling soft and smooth. The loofah and lather combo is super effective, and it's amazing how much foam you can get out of such a small amount of gel.
I'd give this a solid 4 out of 5. The formula could be a bit better, and the packaging could be more secure, but the scent is a bit too simple for my taste. Still, it's a great gel, and the company is definitely doing something right.
