WOW! I was fortunate enough to get this as a Trial Team, and I am now in love.
Starting with the packaging:
The pump bottle is very easy to use, and gives a consistent amount each pump, so once you work out how much you need it is very easy to get the same amount each time you need it. I have hip length, and 4-5 pumps is my usual usage amount. The bottle is a lovely Clear Gold colour, that allows you to see exactly how much of this hair ambrosia you have left.

OK now on to the product....
It smells divine, which I was surprised about as alot of hair products smell like they would knock you out, but this is lovely and floral (with the flower oils in this it should not be surprising).
As soon as I rubbed it into the ends of my hair on my first application, I was in love with this. My normally very dry and brittle ends, were shiny, soft and supple. I could not wait to do the rest of my hair with it. After my first full application, hubby commented on how nice my hair smelt, and I had so many comments about how shiny and healthy it looked. My hair laps up the extra moisture boost. After several applications, it is not absorbed as much meaning in my opinion my hair is actually getting healthier and retaining the moisture, which is great as it is also seemingly stronger as well. Can not comment on helping split ends as I am due for a hair cut and they are terrible, but I am hoping that with the extra moisture boost the amount of splits decreases after my next cut.

Ok so the product is great in that it does not leave marks on clothing. However I found that it was not great at actually stopping sweat, I used to wear it at work as my uniform was a black shirt, but my underarms were always sweaty and left me rather self conscious about BO. I swapped back to my old deodorant for work, and had no problems with sweat, and since the white marks were not an issue with that deodorant either I am happy to stay with my old one. I do however use this for going out and black & white clothing, esp if I know I am not going to sweat as much.

Ok I originally won this in Glosscars 09. I had nevee used a dry shampoo before, I wash my hair once a week. (It is waist length and takes forever to dry, and I don't blow dry unless I have to).
Back then I was doubtful that it would actually work or do anything. BUT I gave it a go and WOW it actually worked well enough that I could wash my hair on my normal day and use this in my hair after using holding products near the roots. My hair feels a little stiff after first brushing out, but after a couple of brushes my hair looks like it normally would after a couple of days of not washing. Which I love. This is brilliant!

As much as I love this and it feels great on with a nice confidence boost, I would have to say that with normal food and drink consumption I did find myself reapplying often. The price will also stop this gem from finding a permanent home with me as being budget wise it is a little much when there are lipsticks that do work as well for cheaper. BUT this does feel great on AND looks good, so it is in the group or rare lippies that do both. :)

Easy to use bottle with a great product inside. We use this on the little miss's hair and it always leaves it soft and smelling beautiful.
No irritation and even if it does get in her eyes it doesn't cause tears. Does the job nicely even in their first bath.
Easy to lather and minimal needed each wash, 1 bottle will last months, making it a great product as well as great value.

From my Hubby:
My Skin is easily irritated when shaving and I have always had to use the 'sensitive' creams/gels when I shave, and even then have still had product & razor burns from those. I was given this as a Christmas gift, and have since binned all other creams I had on my shelf. This stuff has been great to use, and no irritations at all. You don't need much to apply to the area to be shaved, so the tube lasts for ever (one tube given just before xmas, used 2-3 times a week just about to run out now it is the start of April...) So it is great value for cash. Also worth pairing with the longer lasting (smaller) tube of Razor Relief (also a Christmas gift and still have plenty left even with wife stealing it occasionally). Tube is easy to use and store, nice size so it doesn't take up heaps of room.

This review is care of my hubby: This is a must have for all men who have irritable skin when they shave!!!!
Even when required to use s slightly blunt razor blade, I can apply this and know that in the morning there will be no razor burn or redness to my face. I have no idea why this works or how it does (technical stuff in products don't worry me) and while it is weird having my own 'beauty products' I am happy to keep having this on my shelf along with the Maca Root shave cream. My Wife got a sample from the local Body Shop for me to try, as I have had alot of issues with redness/skin burn from alot of the other mens products. The tiny little tub she brought home was enough for 3 shaves and the relief of putting this on afterwards was obvious after the first use.

Well after being sent a bottle of this to try from Nivea I was surprised from the start, I expected a small trial bottle and received a full size bottle... that was a great introduction to a great product.
