Advantages: cheap, not just for face!
Disadvantages: none for me
While out shopping for a new hand moisturiser I spotted Nivea Soft, I have never tried Nivea products before but knowing my gran and mum both use Nivea and have for many years I decided to give it a try. Another reason I was swayed into buying Nivea Soft was it can be used on hands, face and body. I thought this was brilliant as It would cut down on how many lotions and potions I need to use as part of my daily beauty routine.
I purchased the Nivea Soft from superdrug and for the small 75 ml tube it cost me £2.49. It can be bought in all good supermarkets and chemists. I will be purchasing a larger tub of the Nivea soft next time I need to buy it as I found it did not last long.
The packaging has changed ever so slightly compared to the dooyoo picture, its still in the white tube with Nivea logo on the front in blue but it has to light green swirls on it now. On the back of the tube gives you information on how to use and ingredients in the product. The tube has a cap that you need to pop open and close to seal. The cap is quite tough to open but seals well which stops any the cream being wasted.
The Nivea Soft cream is white in colour and quite thick in consistency, it is absorbed very quick into the skin. I always apply it after I come out the shower when my skins clean. My feelings of the product as a face cream- as a face cream I find it works well as a night face cream as its feels quite thick and heavy on my face but love using it on my face after a long day at work. It leaves my face very soft and smooth and I think it improves my skin texture to be more even.
My feelings as a hand cream- As a hand cream I think it absorbs well into the skin and leaves no greasy residue, It works well on cracked skin well and hydrates my hands making them feel very soft and and less tight when they are cracked.
My feelings as a body moisturiser- I have only used it on my legs before a night out to keep them soft and moistures. It worked a treat on my legs but took a lot of effort to rub the cream into my legs but that might be because I like to apply it quite thickly. I only bought the 75ml tube and to be honest I mainly use it on my hand and face because its such a small tube and it would not last long if I used it on my body often. I am sure you can buy it in larger pots and I will be buying one soon as its now my new favourite moisturiser.
The moisturiser contains vitamin e and jojoba oil which are found in most skin care products as they help to moisturise and soften skin leaving it silky smooth and looking good.
Overall I found this to be a excellent product and was very happy with the results on my skin and I also like how It can be used not only as a hand cream but on my face and body as well. It cuts down on how many products I need to use and store in my small bathroom. I now know why my gran and mum have been using Nivea products for years, its very gentle and kind to skin and leaves my skin glowing and hydrated.
