NIVEA Cream

This is what my mum loves to use and it is a nice smelling product and hydrating however it contains petrolium jelly/ petrolium which as the name suggests, is derived from petrol. The packaging is good I have seen it in round plastic containers to mini tins tubes and pump bottles the cream feels rich and luxurious a nice alternative and scented pleasantly but because I know about the additives I would not use often.

Personally I didn't enjoy this product on my face, I felt as though it was WAY too heavy and it just was wet on my face for way too long! Perfect if you have really dry skin but if you have normal type skin then it's problem not the best product

Have very dry skin on my feet:( and hands,I try every cream on the market, so Nivea is an old time favourite, gosh it's been around for years. I love the smell, slightly powdery, so I used it lots, piled it on even wrapped my feet up in cling film, was ok but not as moistening as other creams I have tried, nice and thick though And I still have a jar by my bed just to rub on my feet last thing at night

Personally I didn't enjoy the product as much as other Nivea products, it was very greasy, and for my already oily skin, it didn't do very well. It smelt great but wouldn't use it again.

It has a great texture, feel, and works really nicely - the only problem is the strong smell. It's kind of a tacky smell and is far too fragrant for me. If you can handle that though, it is a great thick moisturiser.

The only other bad thing is the contamination that can occur considering it is a very wide open tub, so make sure your hands are always clean when using it.

This product may be 100 years old but it's nothing special. I mean sure, being around for 100 years is an achievement, but I think it has definitely been superseded by more advanced products. It does work to improve dry patches, but it's not my favourite product for this - I prefer a more heavy duty balm like the Trilogy Everything Balm for concentrated hydration, and something that smells nicer for all-over body moisturiser!

Used this long ago and rediscovered some under the bathroom cupboard the other day. I have found most of the nivea products are just a little too heavy for my liking, especially on the face. Found that if I used this lightly over my body it wasn't too bad but took a little while to absorb. Would I purchase again no I've found other brands that absorb alot quicker and are lighter.

Comes in a cute compact container. Which I have found very convenient, however this formula is rather thick in texture and also leave a shiny residue to skin.

So i'm really not a fan of this. It is really thick, difficult to smooth over the skin, and feel like i need to re-moisturise after only about 1 hour. Will finish my bottle but unfortunately i wouldn't repurchase.

it has no specific use written upon it, and the texture doesnt seem right for facial use, i would say it is better used on cuticles as i found it to be very hydrating in that area
