NIVEA Cream

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 I mean sure, being around for 100 years is an achievement, but I think it has definitely been superseded by more advanced products.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

I bought this thinking it would be great to pop in my handbag to carry around with me as it's a nice size similar to the size of a compact powder. The lid however doesn't seem to stay on and I'm often finding it with the lid off. I found it quite thick to apply and really had to work it into my skin and whilst rubbing it in, it almost felt as if I had tried to apply it to a wet surface which I didn't like and it makes my skin feel a bit oily rather than moisturised

I found this to be really rich but was far too thick even for my dry eczema skin. Made me feel like I couldn't get dressed after putting it on as it sat on my skin after. I wouldn't use it again as it also didn't feel very hydrating.

I landed up buying a tub of niva after my friend said it was amazing. It wasn't expensive, seals good and good size for the price. Unfortunately my skin didn't soak it up as well as I hoped. My situation differs from others because I seen better results on my friends skin. It smells great and I think I need more of a oily base type of cream.
