93% OF CHICKS DIG IT
The product itself is heavily perfumed which many of us with skin sensitivities try to avoid though I did not have issues. The texture of the product is smooth and I used it without any other products or serums and did not find it very moisturizing, I found it to be drying and it did not provide a very smooth base beneath my makeup compared to the products I had been using previously.
I do not feel that this product meets my particular needs and I will not purchase again though I did pass along to my friend who usually does not wear a primer and has dry skin and she loves it.
I received this free as part of the ChickAdvisor product review club but the review I am providing is my own completely unbiased #gotitfree
NIVEA 2-in-1 moisturizing primer dry to sensitive skin wasn't a great match for my skin.
I found it to be too thin and I need a moisturizer that leaves my skin feeling softer and more hydrated. I didn't find this moisturizing primer achieved the "moisture" claim. I needed to apply another moisturizer on top of the NIVEA 2-in-1 moisturizing primer for dry to sensitive skin.
I wouldn't consider this product a "primer". I didn't noticed a difference in smoothness of make up application after applying compared to my daily moisturizer. The floral fragrance is overpowering and I am surprised a cream designed for sensitive skin would contain a strong fragrance like this.
Some positives of this moisturizing primer are it is very smooth and silky, it feels nice and does absorb quickly into the skin.
I was excited to try this product because Nivea lip balm is my go to product for soft lips, but this moisturizing primer is lacking the moisturizing component needed to make it a great moisturizer.
Unfortunately this product fell far from my expectations and assumptions of Nivea products.
I usually love Nivea moisturizers, I use both their day and night products daily and this fell so short.
I did like how fast it absorbed into my skin and it wasn't greasy at all. I liked the light consistency, much like cold cream, and the light fragrance
I didn't notice my foundation lasting any longer on my face as their product claims. It loses serious points for lacking SPF protection. Without the SPF it cannot offer me the full package and now I will need to layer my face in creams.

I am a huge Nivea lover but this unfortunately didn't meet my standards. The product itself was ok, it felt more like a lotion and when it comes to priming it did not do anything to help Prime my skin before using my foundation.
The worst part was the packaging. It's incredibly cheap feeling. Very thin flimsy plastic
I was sent this product free for review purposes
Although this product is advertised as a 2-in-1, my experience was that this was not an effective moisturizer. I used it in place of my regular daytime moisturizer and felt it lacked the hydration I need (and this is the formulation for dry/sensitive skin!) It did, however, live up to its claim that it "absorbs instantly," but still left my skin feeling dry.
As a primer, it did smooth out my skin and help my makeup apply smoothly and stay put for a little longer. I liked that it didn't have the obvious "silicone-y" feel. It's lighter than your average Smashbox primer, for example.
In short, I don't think this product truly works as a 2-in-1 as I had to supplement with an extra moisturizer to get the effect I wanted.
this cream makes my skin soft and when i apply my makeup
it goes on smooth.The look lasts all day,i love the feel of it.
I feel this is comparable to higher price brands of cream.
