NIVEA Moisturizing Crème

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the smell and texture when applying to face for a night cream. It is very thick so I put a blob on 4 fingers of one hand then spread them across the other hand's fingers, pat the cream all over my face then its easier to spread /massage in without stretching my skin. It is a little bit on the greasy side but that subsides after an hour or so. It seems to make me look a little brighter. I think its a bit too greasy for my normal skin in the day time though. I have been using it for almost a week and it does not seem to be clogging my pores. A little more time will tell but so far so good.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had been using the 30ml sized Nivea Creme for over a year and really liked the product. Because of difficulty getting that size anymore I recently bought a larger 60ml size. However, when I used it I found it extremely greasy and it left a sticky residue on my face which was still there the following morning. Looking at the ingredients list of the 60ml tin and comparing it with the 30ml tin I found that there are different ingredients in each. I then looked at the ingredients lists of a number of other Nivea moisturizing products and found them to be similar to those in the 60ml tin. What I don't understand is why Nivea claims that Nivea Creme is the "the original moisturizer" when it has changed the ingredients! Surely changing the ingredients so significantly makes it a different product and certainly not the 'original'. Sadly, I will NOT be buying Nivea anymore, which is regrettable because I really liked the old 'original' which suited my sensitive skin.
