NIVEA Daily Essentials Refreshing Cleansing Lotion Review

This is my go-to face wash! I absolutely love it and it is so nice on my super sensitive skin! It doesn't remove my make up as well as I would like, but it does the job well enough. I have been using this face wash for quite a while now, and as far as supermarket products go, this one is one of the better ones I have tried. I love cream cleansers due to their nice texture and this one doesn't disappoint in the texture department! I also find that I only use a little bit at a time and it covers my whole face. Super affordable and great to use.

This product is gentle and refreshing and feels very nice on your skin but does not do such a great job at removing makeup. You have to use quite a bit and scrub fairly hard to remove eye makeup. I would use it before bed to refresh my face but not for makeup removal.

I found this product a bit too moisturizing for a cleanser. I have quite breakout-prone skin and so need a cleanser that sits in between moisturizing and drying, and I found this cleanser was more moisturizing. This would be great if you had dry skin, but not combination or oily skin. I used it in the shower in the morning so never tried it for removing makeup so not sure how good it would be on that front.

For a supermarket product i think it does an okay job. I am used to using the 'bigger named brands' products, but would happily use this when my other face wash has run out and havent had a chance to get a new bottle. Really like the price:)

The product is pretty good for it's price, but it's more of a moisturizer than a cleansing lotion because I personally have dry skin and it has been feeling a lot better. But when you remove makeup with it, you kinda have to really rub it to get the makeup off.

For a supermarket product that is affordable it is good to have on hand for legs and bigger parts of the body. It's average for me because it doesn't do an outstanding job of moisturizing my skin but it does take away some dryness without irritating it. It's a good generic moisturizer and cleanser but not my staple product. It promises to remove makeup and waterproof mascara. I have used it for both and yes it removes basic makeup but not mascara. I have never really liked the smell of Nivea anything so the smell on my skin is a big turn off for me. So based on all that I find it mediocre.

Nivea cleanser

In the interest of being honest, I will admit I am not the biggest fan of Nivea. Call me a snob but usually I prefer higher end or Korean skincare, although you can get some amazing products from the supermarket. I got this and another Nivea product as they had a promo on at the time to get a free face brush.

The design on the bottle of this isn't anything amazing. It doesn't catch my eye but it isn't ugly, it is just kind of generic in my opinion. In fact, generic is the perfect word that encompasses all of my thoughts about this product. It isn't bad but it isn't good. It does cleanse your face but it isn't good as a makeup remover. My dry skin feels soft and smooth after using this and it doesn't feel dry.

The scent, however, puts me off this. In fact I really can't stand the smell of any Nivea product. I'm not sure why I dislike it but it doesn't agree with me,l so if you aren't a fan of the smell of Nivea products then skip this, as it does have a heavy smell.

Overall I wasn't wowed by this at all. I wouldn't repurchase it and because of the smell I won't even finish it, and will give this away to someone else who would enjoy using it.

I've tried using this many times for the sake of using up the bottle but every time it went near my eyes it stung them. It was just too creamy and thick and I didn't feel it worked for me. I always had to use something else afterwards.

This stuff is honestly quite bad. It not only did nothing to remove make up residue from my face after make up wipes but it also didn't clean my face one bit. It leave it with a sticky/creamy residue. Not really sure what he function of this product is but it did absolutely nothing and left my face feeling yuck. I would definitely not recommend this product despite the fact that I generally love Nivea.

This cleanser just did not remove my make up nor did it cleanse my face. I hadn't heard of this cleanser before but was in need of a new one and choose it off the supermarket shelf because I liked how it sounded and I liked the fact that it was a lotion which seemed to be more hydrating then drying. I will not re purchase, honestly just felt like I rubbed abit of moisturiser on my face and washed it off with my make up still in tact underneath. I have given it many tries now ith the same results. None. Thumbs down.
