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.

Nice but not effective at makeup removal

Overall this is a lovely creamy milk-type cleanser which is great for dry skin types, has the usual lovely refreshing 'Nivea' fragrance to it. Does an ok job of cleansing if you wear next to no makeup but it doesn't do a good job of removing mascara or any eyeliner. I prefer cold creams to get a thorough clean without drying, and to remove makeup properly.

Tips: Use with a warm cloth for best results.

Disappointed

I love Nivea products they have always been part of my medicine cabinet for as long as I can remember but unfortunately this one disappointed me, It has the "Nivea" smell to it which I love

It is a creamy lotion which glides and emulisfies easily on the skin, and doesn't feel like its dragging.

Overall it is a good cleanser but I found it only removes minimal make up, it struggled and was very ineffective with my heavy professional foundation and also my gel liner, I was left looking like a panda even after 2-3 cleanses.

It did leave my skin feeling soft and moisturized, but due to my experience with non make up removal, I will not repurchase this product in the future.

.

Tips: Is great for a body wash in the shower.

Burnt my eyes

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.

Not great at anything much...

I have only used this about 3 times as it just doesnt fit the bill at all for me. It didnt do well at removing makeup, my face didnt feel clean, in fact it felt really greasy afterwards. I havnt used it long enough to see if it helps much with breakouts but i highly doubt it sine my skin doesnt even feel clean. Not going to use this, will just leave in the bathroom for guests to use if they want to.

Basic

The Nivea range hasnt really been to consistent for my liking, this product is quite heavy and kind of smears across my skin rather then applies smoothy, not really for me I aint a fan of the texture, I do think for the price it is understandible but I wouldnt buy again

This stuff is pretty bad..

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.

Not good at all!

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.

Tips: Not even worth the $11.99, give something else a try.
