NIVEA Soft Moisturising Cream Review

I have been using the Nivea soft moisturising cream for a couple of years now and it is by far my favourite drugstore moisturiser. It does an amazing job at keeping my skin hydrated, especially in the Winter when my skin tends to get very dry! It doesn't have a strong scent to it, it just smells very clean and fresh and its perfect for those who need a little extra hydration. It's great for sensitive skin, it doesn't irritate my skin at all! And it can be used on your face, body, hands, feet and anywhere. The consistency is creamy but at the same time it feels like on the skin and easily glides on and doesn't leave it feeling oily.

I used this as a facial moisturiser for quite a few years, but with my very dry skin it never really had the moisturing effects that I was after and I've since discovered other great alternatives.

The cream is very light and soft, and has a neutral scent that I didn't particularly like but wasn't a problem. My skin is quite sensitive, and I found that this cream did not react with my skin and did make it quite soft. However, even after prolonged use, it wasn't able to moisturise my skin enough to get rid of my flaky patches and my skin never felt hydrated or noticeably less dry. I also found that it took quite a long time to sink in and left my skin feeling greasy rather than moisturised. I much prefer it as a hand cream, or even as a body cream, but there are better alternatives and I would not use it again on my face. However the cheap price and simple, easy-to-use packaging are definitely in it's favour.

Have been using Nivea soft for quite awhile now, definitely one of my favourite for my face. I have quite sensitive skin, which Nivea soft didn't react with, I felt that it kept my skin hydrated, didn't make my skin go oily like some do. consistency is quite thick.

i have used this product,I liked it,it was soft on the skin and non greasy.while. It did moisturise I felt I needed more but that could be because I have more mature skin.i actually liked this as a hand moisturiser as well.good value.

This is my go to daily moisturizer, I shopped around trying several different ones and always came back to this. Mainly because it doesn't leave that greasy film on your skin like a lot of other moisturizers do. It is lovely and creamy and leaves me feeling nice and soft. I have sensitive skin and need to be careful about what I use on my face as some products leave me with a nasty scaly rash, but this is nice and gentle and just feels good on my skin

I used to use this product all the time. I thought it was pretty good. Kept my skin soft but was a little greasy and i would have to wait 5 minutes after applying it to apply foundation. After speaking with a skin specialist and a few tests she assured me this was not the right product for me. It is too heavy and greasy and would ruin skin. Im still looking for an inexprensive and less greasy product to replace my daily moisturiser

I bought this at the supermarket to try when it was on special. It has a very creamy texture, smelt nice also. It glided onto my skin and absorbed quickly. It left my skin feeling soft all day. I have sensitive skin and had no problems with nivea. I would definately buy it again.

Love this moisturiser as my everyday go to. Goes on smooth and doesn't leave a greasy feeling on my face afterwards. Not scented or anything so it's great on my sensitive skin. Definitely recommend it if you're looking for a lighter daily moisturiser.

I love this moisturiser and usually have a pot of it beside the bed.

It is economical and can be purchased from New World. I've been using it for a very long time.

It comes in a plastic pot, with the Nivea branding, which is nice and easily recogniseable.

I find the rich creamy texture feels like luxury on my very dry skin. It absorbs well and my skin looks and feels refreshed after using it.

It suits me that it has very little fragrance, and doesn't irritate my skin.

I usually buy the pot because I like that you can get into the corners and use all of the product, and I prefer it to a tube.

This economical product is lovely and I would recommend it to anyone but especially people with dry skin.

I absolutely LOVE this moisturising cream. The thick consistency means a little goes a long way. It absorbs easily into my skin, leaving it feeling moisturised and soft for hours. I like the fact that you're able to use it on your whole body (including your face) without leaving it feeling oily.

My hands tend to get dry a lot especially after washing it with soap. So you'll always find this in my handbag. I lke the fact that it comes in small pots which are perfect for travelling or fitting into your handbag. I've found that many creams seem to eventually sweat of my hands in hot weather however Nivea is able to last on my skin without leaving it all slippery.
