A nice crisp fresh looking white plastic tube and a dark blue flip top lid. Inside is a mid range white lotion that's nice and silky and it has a soft fresh light floral scent, similar to the usual Nivea fragrance. This lotion absorbs very quickly and leaves my skin feeling soft and smooth and I feel like a bit of talcum powder has been rubbed over my skin leaving it feeling fresh, the scent is lovely, after five minutes that's where it stops, as far a moisturizing I don't get the slightest benefit from this lotion my hands still feel dry, and there is no soothing of my dryness in my skin, sadly I go through the motion of putting on and rubbing in a hand cream and that's it, it doesn't matter how much I use it makes no difference if I use a little or quite a lot the effects are the same. So definitely not for me, I do have dry skin I definitely need something more.

Nothing too special about this hand cream. The consistency is light and fresh and "looks" to promise moisture.
Unlike some, I'd say my hands hold very little if any moisture and so I require exactly a "Intensive Nourishing Hand Cream" which is why I reached out to this product. Unfortunately, the product only leaves your hand "moisturized" whilst you're applying it. Once you've rubbed the product in your hands, the moisture doesn't last for long at all.
Definitely expected something to come of these claims but was sadly disappointed. I have very dry hands so maybe I can imagine that it could work on people who have supple hands that are not that dry but is just wanting some extra nourishment to amplify any existing moisture.
For me, the only plus is that the hand cream soaks in fast, but what good is that if the moisture won't last (that rhymed)?
A note about the scent: A decent, light, floral scent. Nothing horrible!
Be working in retail I got always dry hand. Product claim that provide long lasting moisture for dry skin that not truth. I had high expectations on this hand cream because I do like Nivea moisturiser.
Comes in handy tube like other hand cream. Cream consistency is thick and rich but not provide enough moisture for dry hand.. It is normal hand cream but great for normal skin hand.
Tips: Not that much rich for dry hand
My immediate impression once I opened the tube was the smell, quite overpowering and unfortunate that it upset my senses. I can only describe it as a strong floral toned scent as I can not distinguish the exact notes but it is distinctly Nivea. So I tried it in hopes that the smell would not be an issue. I applied a small amount to my hands and massaged in, it felt silky and like it would really help my skin but after rubbing it in, my hands felt slimy and not moisturised much at all. My skin still felt dry and after about 15mins I needed to wash the residue off my hands.
I tried again on a second occasion and lasted even less distance before it was again washed off. I know others that love this product but it is not for me and has since been rehomed.
This hand cream's texture is borderline runny and I find it does nothing for me. Immediately after application, it's practically gone. It feels very watered down but I didn't have any high hopes for it anyway given the price. In the end I used it as a hand mask just to finish the tube (squirted a huge amount into a hand mask glove and just left my hands soak).
As winter was coming up and that nasty flu season too, my work decided to give us all a little well being pack of tissues, hand sanitizer, throaties and also NIVEA Intensive Nourishing Hand Cream.
First impressions - the bottle was subtle and a decent size. The smell was what you'd expect from a hand-cream, just like all the others.
I put some in my hand and immediately my skin was so much softer, but it took a very long time for my hand not to be all greasy and wet from the cream.
My hands were hot and greasy for the next hour or so, and my computer mouse did not enjoy it I suspect!
Being free - I appreciated it. But in the long run, this cream is sitting at my desk, almost completely full, and has never been used since. I've only kept it for emergencies.
