The famous “Nivea Cream in the Blue Jar” is a product I purchased at the recommendation of a friend after much research. This is the one the whole internet compares to La Mer and calls a $4 dupe for an $800 face cream. Don’t be fooled - it is not. The ingredients are nowhere close to the same, and after actually using the real La Mer on my face, the results were not similar for me. I have owned this product for a year. I used it on my face and hated the consistency, weird minty sensation, and odd moist feeling it had on my skin. It also gave my combination-oily skin fungal acne when used over serum. On my body, it also felt odd and did not penetrate in a way that made me want to wash my skin almost immediately. I purchased this product for less than $5 at my local ... MoreThe famous “Nivea Cream in the Blue Jar” is a product I purchased at the recommendation of a friend after much research.

On my body, it also felt odd and did not penetrate in a way that made me want to wash my skin almost immediately. I purchased this product for less than $5 at my local retailer. It is one I attempted to use several times. I didn’t make a dent it. It is a great value for the money IF this is a product that works well for you. However, for the marketing claims and my experience with the product based on my skin type, this is not a product I can encourage anyone to buy.

I was searching for a dupe for La Mer Moisturizing Soft Creme and bought this German market version of the Nivea Soft Creme under the advisement of many internet sites (it has different ingredients than the US version). The smell of this product is incredibly strong, stronger than the admittedly potpourri-in-a-funeral-home scent of the La Mer Moisturizing Soft Creme. A strongly scented formula is the only thing I found these two products to have in common. The Nivea creme smells like bergamot crossed with fresh laundry scent amd a slight bit of limonene. I tried using it on my face a couple of times but it made my eyes water terribly and I had to stop. I switched to using this on my hands to give it a fair trial. The smell is noticible an hour into wear. I did not ... MoreI was searching for a dupe for La Mer Moisturizing Soft Creme and bought this German market version of the Nivea Soft Creme under the advisement of many internet sites (it has different ingredients than the US version).

I did not feel any noticeable moisturizing effects after a week of daily use, in fact, I noticed that my hands feel slightly drier than before when I was not using any hand moisturizer at all. 1 star given for cute tin packaging.

Nivea cream is a popular skincare product that has been around for over a century. Overall, I think it's a great product that delivers on its promises. One of the things I like about Nivea cream is its versatility. It can be used on the face, body, and hands, making it a great all-purpose moisturizer. It also works well for all skin types, from dry to oily. The cream itself has a thick and creamy consistency, which feels luxurious on the skin. It's also very hydrating and leaves the skin feeling soft and supple. Another benefit of Nivea cream is that it absorbs quickly, without leaving any greasy residue. To use Nivea cream, simply scoop out a small amount and massage it into the skin.

Overall, I would highly recommend Nivea cream to anyone looking for a high-quality moisturizer that delivers great results.

It’s just a basic moisturizer that gets the job done. It’s not too greasy and it’s not too matte, it’s in between more toward the greasier side, that’s why I use it at night only. I really like it because it doesn’t just sit on top of my skin. It has absorbent ingredients which I look for all the time. Some don’t like this because it has alcohol but that just helps the product not be so greasy and absorb well. It’s actually moisturizing and does not break me out. I have tried other night creams and with many I break out if it’s too heavy. I would get small bumps but from this ... MoreI like to use this cream at night.

I have tried other night creams and with many I break out if it’s too heavy. I would get small bumps but from this I never do. It’s perfectly moisturizing and not heavy. This does have a fragrance which for some people with allergies or sensitive skin that’s not good but for me it is never an issue. I don’t use much in my skincare routine and I keep it simple so that’s why my skin isn’t sensitive. If you are using actives, then fragrance-free could be a better choice, depends on your needs. I probably could find something better, but I keep going back to this because it’s so easy to find and it gets the job done. It’s also cheap. I have tried many expensive products and this is better. This does not irritate my skin or do anything special, but it moisturizes.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT

OMG, where have I been? I recently tried this cream/lotion in the trial size and it exceeded my expectations. I only tried it because I was looking for a scented hand cream. Well I found so much more. I immediately noticed how moisturizing and nourishing my skin looked and felt. I also noticed a glow to my skin but not a greasy feeling. Next I noticed after using it on my feet, my polish shined even more. I then begin to explore the other products. This cream is excellent as a face cream. I use it before bed around my eyes, nose forehead and eyebrows. After lightly washing my face in the AM, there is still moisture and no greasy feel. I also use it on my knees, elbows and heels at night. I have noticed that my skin tone is becoming even and my heels feel softer. My ... MoreOMG, where have I been?

NIVEA CREME IS A LIFESAVER!

I appreciate how affordable this cream is! My skin has permanent sun damage and the acne cream I used to use forced me to give up any skin products as it felt like scratching a sunburn on my face. Even moisturizers burned my face. But I found this gem underneath my sink and I use it multiple times a day for my body and face! It is so soothing and helps with my acne too. I recommend this product over any other. It definitely is for anyone, my skin is super sensitive and damaged, and this is the only product making my skin glow. I love putting a generous amount on before bed, when I wake up before I apply my makeup and after I get out of the shower. I had tried everything, from high end products over $100, to just washing with water, and my skin was still peeling and ... MoreI appreciate how affordable this cream is!

Take it from someone who has struggled with intense acne for years, this product is worth every penny!

Panic Over-on changes to be made!

I have used this cream for years as a night cream and it always keeps my skin soft and supple with a glow….after reading the previous comments about Nivea changing the formula….well Panic over!!!! I emailed them and got a quick reply saying:Due to new ingredient guidelines, we can confirm that only the perfume oil within our NIVEA Creme was tweaked in mid/end 2019. The rest of the formulation so far has remained the same. Please find below the current list of ingredients:Water, Paraffinum Liquidum, Cera Microcristallina, Glycerin, Lanolin Alcohol (Eucerit®), Paraffin, Panthenol, Magnesium Sulfate, Decyl Oleate, Octyldodecanol, Aluminum Stearates, Citric Acid, Magnesium Stearate, Limonene, Geraniol, Hydroxycitronellal, Linalool, Citronellol, Benzyl Benzoate, ... MoreI have used this cream for years as a night cream and it always keeps my skin soft and supple with a glow….after reading the previous comments about Nivea changing the formula….well Panic over!!!!

The Original and still the best

I was introduced to Nivea Creme by my Great Aunt Rosie. She wore it everyday. She had a simple skin care regime, wash face with tepid water and Imperial Leather soap and moisturise with NiveaShe kept her tin, as it was way back then, in her handbag which she carted everywhere with her.I used to pinch a little bit of her Nivea when she wasn't looking, well I was 8-years-old at the time. It was always about the smell of the original Nivea Creme for me, well what did I know about skin care? Absolutely nothing! I just liked the smell. Skin care was for people much more better off than me.Fast forward to 2022, nearly 2023 and I am still using Nivea Creme, not for sentimentality but because this stuff actually works.It is soft, easily absorbed, goes into every little ... MoreI was introduced to Nivea Creme by my Great Aunt Rosie.

Skin care was for people much more better off than me.Fast forward to 2022, nearly 2023 and I am still using Nivea Creme, not for sentimentality but because this stuff actually works.It is soft, easily absorbed, goes into every little nook and cranny to give me soft skin all over, not just my face and hands. I even use it on my feet.A little tub of happiness is what I call it. It's cheap as well. I think I paid just over£1 for the smallest tub of 50ml. Believe me when I say, that a little dab covers a large area.I got a lovely set for my Christmas from my son's girlfriend, who is 23, who like me loves Nivea. I gave her Nivea too as a gift at Christmas, Along with her Rainbow Set I told her about My Nivea and she is very excited to get started.It's the only range I trust with my skin and body care . The only range that doesn't irritate my skin or make it itchy. Everything I have used since joining up with Nivea has only done wonders for my skin, and that has got to be a good thing.There is a lot to be said about being confident and having confidence in your choice of skin care products, Nivea does it for me. Every single time. Thank you.

Timeless..

Timeless multipurpose cream we all grew up with. Unfortunately, be aware my dear Canadians that this wonderful cream with 100 years of history making on its back, is about to change to a 'vegan' formula...Sadly, Nivea in Germany has already started 'experimenting' in 3 countries (Greece, Belgium and Netherlands) with its new plant formula. A friend brought with her from visiting Europe and the new cream is nothing like the classic one. It smells like an imitation of the original and has a watery but sticky consistence that does not apply well on the skin. After 10 minutes or so, the skin smells like corn oil..It's so ridiculous that Nivea did this. Their claim is for 'the good of the planet'...Yet, making a mass production of this vegan cream will still load the ... MoreTimeless multipurpose cream we all grew up with.

Their claim is for 'the good of the planet'...Yet, making a mass production of this vegan cream will still load the planet's soil. The maker (who was a pharmacist) of this cream knew what he was doing when he made it and surely, he had no intention of harming the planet. Be aware that this might come in Canada as well. What's upsetting is that although the formula is completely different-the packaging is exactly the same. The company's intention is to launch its new cream without people realizing it's not the same anymore...Both formulas could still be available and allow the consumers to choose their favorite.
