For those who need a kickstart in the morning, the Nivea for Men Energy shower gel should get you going.

Between the cold and the dark, the trek into work or college every day is getting tougher and tougher. We’ll admit it, we’ve arrived in half asleep on more than one occasion.

So when the lads at Nivea Men got in touch with an ‘Energy’ shower gel that promised to wake us up after our morning ablutions we couldn’t wait to give it a go.

And by jove they’ve done it. The addition of mint extract is the key here. Not only does it smell great, it also gives your skin that kick you need to wake up and seize the day.

Of course, like all Nivea for Men shower gels, the ‘Energy’ version will also moisturise your skin, and leave you feeling good and smelling great. There’s none of the tightness that some shower gels or soaps can give you afterwards and you genuinely feel set up to take on the day.

That drudge into work is considerably better now as we feel invigorated after our shower. And a post-workout shower with the ‘Energy’ gel certainly helps after a hard session.

All in all the ‘Energy’ gel has all the stuff you need in a shower gel – moisturiser, good smell, long lasting – but with the added bonus of a boost to your enthusiasm. What more could you want?
