When I was a kid my mum used to apply Nivea on her face and skin during winters. I still remember the blue colored tin packing and it used to smell soooo good. Now coming back to the product, the present Nivea cream retains all the past qualities, this proves their stability in the market. The lable on the cream says “Refreshingly Soft Cream”. Read on to know more about the cream.
Price & Quantity:
Rs.79 for 50 ml
Key Ingredients:
Jojoba oil and vitamin E.
Usage Instructions?:
Apply onto the skin and massage till absorbed.
Shelf Life:
30 months from the date of manufacture.
My Experience:
Packaging: It comes in a tub.
Color, Consistency & Fragrance: It is white in color; the consistency is like a thick cream. As I said earlier it retains the same strong floral fragrance. I personally like it.
Swatch:
How it works: Moisturizes skin and avoids dryness to a larger extent. I usually use body lotion everyday to keep my skin hydrated. We planned for a 2-day trip with family and I was not able to carry the full sized body lotion with me since it had a pump dispenser. I decided to buy a handy lotion/cream to carry along and ended up buying this one considering the quantity and the cost. This is a very buttery cream. It takes some time to sink into the skin and keeps the skin hydrated for a very long time. But I didn’t like the oily feeling once applied. It’s a big NO NO for the face if you have a normal skin. Overall it is an averagely rated cream.
PROS:
- Very moisturizing
- Available is smaller as well as larger quantities
- Proven quality
- Can be used on face too if you have a very very dry skin
- It is a multipurpose skin cream; you can use it on your knee and foot too
CONS:
- Takes a long time for the skin to absorb it completely
- Feels oily
- Strong fragrance which may not be liked by many
- Tub packing makes it unhygienic
- Not suitable for the face if you have a normal/combo/oily skin
Rating: 3/5
Do I Recommend:
I recommend to all those ladies who have a very dry skin
Would I Repurchase?:
No. There are many other options in the market.
