The product
When it comes to your morning shower, if you’re someone who loves that fresh, clean feeling, you probably prefer to reach for a shower gel. The bad news is that while it may make you feel squeaky clean, you’re probably not doing your skin any favours.
Many shower gels contain harsh chemicals that can throw off your body’s oil production, leaving it feeling tight and dry. The good news? We’ve found a new kind of shower gel that delivers that fresh, purified feeling, without stripping your skin.
NIVEA Shower Clay Fresh is a non-drying clay-based shower gel. It’s formulated with white kaolin clay, which is known for its gentle exfoliating properties, so while it’s tough on impurities and dirt, it’s gentle on your skin. This unique clay-to-foam formula leaves skin feeling soft and velvety smooth.
The best part? It comes in three amazing fragrances that are perfect for a morning pick-me-up: NIVEA Shower Clay Fresh Ginger & Basil, NIVEA Shower Clay Fresh Blue Agave & Lavender and NIVEA Shower Clay Fresh Hibiscus & White Sage.

The lowdown
Here’s what the Review Crew® loved about the NIVEA Shower Clay Fresh range.
How it made their skin feel: Many reviewers noticed that their skin was left feeling soft and smooth after use, rather than dry and tight (a common complaint they had about other shower gel formulas). One reviewer said, “It left my skin feeling smooth, hydrated and even more moisturised than others have in the past.”
The fresh, clean scent: Reviewers loved the fresh, clean scent, adding that it was long-lasting but not too over-powering.
The clay-to-foam consistency: Members loved the thick and luscious consistency of the formula, commenting on how it formed a rich lather that spread easily. They also said that a little went a long way.
