Nivea in the blue pot

Does anyone else use this as much as me? I have used this for years and just love it, tried the Nivea Soft version but don't like the smell. It must be ancient stuff as remember it from when I was young and my mum and Grandma using it Smile

I always have a pot of this about me, also aloevera vaseline.

I use Nivea soft too after a shower. I tried the Aldi and Lidl versions but went back to Nivea as they had harsh perfumes.

The blue pot Nivea is the best on dry ends when I blow dry my hair, and for smoothing away flyaways. I think it's a one pot suits all actually.

I occasionally get some topical dermatitis from metal: keys and coins; door handles, lift buttons and the like; and Nivea and Vaseline are the things to sort it out. I think it's the paraffin in it and few other ingredients.

If I'm stuck I use baby oil, as that's pure paraffin, but it's a bit gloppy/ oily to use daily.

My mum always used that and she looks very youthful.

Another Nivea lover here!

Blue pot one for nighttime. Soft version for daytime. I won't use anything else now.

Just goes to show that all the hype about this and that product that costs ££££££s is just that, hype and marketing.

My mum always used Nivea, all her girls still do aswell.

Only ever used blue pot Nivea as moisturiser & its fab.

I use loads from the Nivea range - cheap as anything in Home Bargains. The shower creme is fab and the rich cream is perfect as night cream and make up remover. I'm going to try it on my hair this weekend!

I use the Nivea light with SPF 15 for day use. All really cheap
And smell stunning.
