Nivea Sun Spray

I discovered Nivea Sun Spray by accident really. Just recently I went on holiday to Spain to visit my brother, the weather was just right, lots of sunshine and a nice cooling breeze. The first day I got myself settled ready for a nice long sunbathe when I discovered I had left my usual sun screen at home. Not wanting the bother of getting changed and going down the shops, I found some in by brother's cupboard. (left by a previous visitor). I have ...
...This "borrowed" sun screen was Nivea Sun Spray Factor 10. I immediately though by using factor 10 I would not tan as usual, but I was wrong I came back from that holiday with a beautiful deep all-over tan, well almost all-over, look a bit like a panda in the nude! In fact the tan has stayed with me and my skin still feels good. Usually when I get home the first shower or bath starts my whole body peeling, this didn't happen this time. I found it ...

Review of Nivea Sun Spray

Have you ever noticed that one little sniff of some sun tan lotion immedeatley whisks your mind back to your last holiday ? Well it does for me anyway! Having two small kids that just hate any sort of attention where they have to stand still for more than 10 seconds we were having great difficulty in getting them covered in sun protection the other week. Apart from the obvious such as covering them in clothes with long sleves and hats there didnt ...
...rub lotion all over them, an unpleasent experience all around as I gained more swift kicks from my daughter to a very sensetive part of my anatomy than was absolutley necessary! Nuff said! There had to be a better option, so as we were trailing around the town on a sweltering hot day, just browsing about, I noticed a smallish navy blue bottle with a yellow lid, the best bit is to come...... it said......... SUN SPRAY ........ YESSSSSS! This was ...

Review of Nivea Sun Spray

...doggy. I immediately apply the Nivea Sun Spray and my first thought it "What a lovely smell" its that classic holiday smell, not sure how to describe it really but you all know the holiday smell! The nozzle sprayed the sunscreen evenly and it was very easy to apply using my hands, however, I found it to leave my skin quite tacky and that put me off abit. Plus it left my hands really sticky after application, again that wasn't very nice. If I could ...
...case I wouldn't buy the Nivea again the stickyness being the main fault, I would actually grudge paying £11.99 again to walk around feeling like I'm sticking to myself all day, tis not a pleasant feeling. Another thing I found was the top is really loose, I lost the damn thing between leaving the beach and getting home. So beware of that. Overall, nice product and good idea but I wouldn't buy it again. ...

Review of Nivea Sun Spray

...it works brilliantly, produced by Nivea the cream is rather exspensive retailing at around £11.99 a bottle, thats for 200ml. I say it's worth it though, the cream has only just run out. It comes in a relatively small bottle which is blue with an attractive orangey/yellowey lid/cap. You may have noticed that this is a kids sun spray, that doesen't bother us though, it works well on all 5 of us! We did buy it for my little 5yr old sister though! Overall ...
...the other day but we came back with exactly the same stuff but TRSCO's own, it was much cheaper, we're all going to use it on holiday next week so maybe you can look forward to an op on whether it was just as good when I get back, thanks for reading ~M~ ...

Review of Nivea Sun Spray

...to catch some sun. Nivea Sun Spray is an amazing idea which frankly I am suprised no one has thought of before. A sun cream which you simply spray on. No more sand and congealed-suncream in the lids, super-heated dollops of the stuff smearing heavily over your body and often leaving big patches covered whilst overs get hardly any at all. This product comes in a fairly small 200ml container which fits nicely in the hand. There are finger ridges on ...
...quite dramatic consequences! Luckily Nivea also do an After Sun Spray in the same bottles except they are light blue. This stuff works well if you forget to reapply often like me, and has the added effect of cooling your skin down with the spray. If you were going to use this in a very hot and very sunny place I'd suggest you use a separate stronger creme for delicate areas like the face and shoulders. Make sure to put some back on after getting ...

Review of Nivea Sun Spray

...friend, and me decided on Nivea Sun Spray factor 10. We took an average and found that the Nivea Sun Spray factor 10 seemed to be the best. Now the problem is getting it. We got hold of factor 2, factor 8 and even factor 15 but not 10. As usual the counter guy was scientist as to why factor 15 or 20 will be better, sir? But I wanted keep the trust with my ciao guys. At last we did get one and happy we are. For 200 ml bottle £11 + price, isn’t it ...
...good fragrance, as with all Nivea product its same, not at all over powering but this is no exception but it smells naturally damn soothy. May be it is the branded ‘Natural” smell policy of Nivea. I must say that this Sun Spray is very easy to use, water resistant, it has got both UVA, UVB filters an although I am a man who is very allergy prone (soft skin, I believe) but it’s application produced no signs of that dreaded, ugly looking red flare ...

Review of Nivea Sun Spray

...owners of a bottle of Nivea Sun Spray factor 20 purchased from Boots the chemists. The actual product is great, the spray nozzle bit works really well and the ease of use seems to encourage you to use it more than the old fashioned manual method. Unlike other spray products this one doesn't seem to clog up afetr a few uses. This sun spray is light and you don't feel like an oil slick afterwards, although it claims to be water resistant I would always ...
...It has a pleasant smell, not too overpowering. This product comes in a 200ml grip sized dark blue plastic bottle with a yellow top. I found that this yellow top comes off too easily so be careful, you may lose it and/or have a nasty accident with sun spray all over everything. The downside for me is the price as I paid over £10 for this product in Boots, only to discover a couple of weeks later and too late to make a fuss that almost everyone else, ...

Review of Nivea Sun Spray

...supermarket with some of this Nivea Sun Tan Lotion Spray which she had got at a bargain of buy one get one free, I was still dubious. I had no choice of course about using it, but for once I will admit I was completely wrong! This Nivea sun spray is so easy to use, it's efficiency is amazing! It is just so easy to spray it lightly around your skin and then rub it in gently, and yes it does actually rub in. Best of all it doesn't leave behind a horrible ...
...lotion on your face it doesn't automatically go and sting your eyes either! To top it all off you don't even have to apply that often as it just works like an absolute treat! This is one amazing discovery! Although it has to be said that if this spray wasn't on offer at the time, it is quite expensive otherwise. ...

Review of Nivea Sun Spray

My boyfriend chose this one - I think to avoid the inevitable sticky fingers he'd end up with if he had to rub oil on my back! Anyway, it does the job, it's ultra-easy spray application means you don't have to juggle with bottles and lids and spill the bits that have come out of the hot container too quickly. It's light and smells neutral/citrus-y. You do have to rub it in, which means hands do end up a bit sticky, but nowhere near as much as normal. ...

Review of Nivea Sun Spray

...(expensive but necessary!) I found Nivea Sun Spray. I tried this one and liked it immediately. It sprayed a nice even cooling spray of lotion onto your skin. Then, all you have to do is spread it about a bit and thats it. The nice thing about the Nivea Sun spray is that there are knobbly bits on the sides of the bottle so when your hands are a bit greasy and you are trying to spray the lotion, the bottle doesn't slip out of your hands. The lotion ...
...then also moved to using Nivea after sun too once I had found that I wasn't allergic to Nivea. The lotion isn't too greasy and has a pleasant aroma without being overpowering like some sun lotions. With some lotions the nozzles can block especially the hotter it gets and render the product useless unless you take the lid off and then it's too runny to rub over yourself easily. This nozzle seems to fare well in high heat. I use factor 20 sun lotion ...

Review of Nivea Sun Spray

If you burn easily like I do then you need a good factor sun protector to stop you from burning. Last year I used this product when I went to Spain and as I have fair skin need a high factor to stop me from looking like a lobster, the first factor I use when I go on holiday is a factor 20 then half way through the holiday I go down to factor 15. The spray is brilliant and absorbs really easily into the skin, it has not got a heavy scent to it and ...
...the market. The spray stops your hands getting all greasy as well because you direct the spray straight onto the skin, brilliant if you are on the beach. The spray fits nicely into any bag so is easy to carry around, and their is no risk of the spray leaking in your bag as I have had lotion containers leak in my bag in the past. Overall a brilliant product, why didn't they think of the sprays earlier. ...

Review of Nivea Sun Spray

...date. I also like that Nivea do not test their products on animals, as this is an added ethical bonus. I like to think that with the ability to ethically produce such quality, mainstream products, animals testing is becoming more and more unnecessary. I have used this spray on the beach before, where I also went into the sea and I would recommend that it is re-applied after water, just to be safe. I would also make sure to reapply any sun protection ...

Review of Nivea Sun Spray

...first one i found, namely Nivea spray. As i had heard of, and used, Nivea before as a body lotion and deodorant, i figured that if the standard was the same then i would be fine. The first issue was the price. Its a lot cheaper to purchase the lotion version, but as i wanted ease i decided to splash out on the spray kind. Now at around £11 its very expensive, but lucky as i am, i found it for half price. Most shops tend to do this more than they ...
...around before you buy it for the first price you see. Now using it is very easy. Simply shake the bottle slighyl before use and just spray on the area you want it on. As it comes out in spray form there is less to have to rub in and therefore you can get done and be on the beach a lot quicker! As we know - on holiday time savers are very welcomed. The bottle is easy to find. Its a blue medium sized bottle with i yellow spray top and lid. The lid ...

Review of Nivea Sun Spray

This is an excellent, simple, innovative idea. Unfortunately the reality needs a little more work. The spray goes onto the skin unevenly so still requires rubbing in like any other sun lotion. It doesn’t work upside down, so you do need a helping hand to get the stuff onto your back, and it is tricky to put on your legs as you have to keep ensuring that you are holding the container upright. The level of protection is as good as you’d expect from ...
