good product, but you can make your own for much much much cheaper (nope...not 150 characters yet...ugh this is frustrating with this site. I don't get why they have to be 150 characters).
Amazing
Loved the new body butter! Left my skin soft and smelling wonderful. The price is a bit high for the amount of product you receive but overall I really liked this product
Great value........but
Easily found the product in store and was super excited to try it out. Came in a nice large container and smelled divine. The only downside to this product is its ingredient list I was very disappointed to see parabens on the list. Nivea being such a great brand I was hoping that they had joined other brands that have dropped parabens from their ingredients. I used it once to be able to write a review and the cream itself dried quickly and left my skin feeling moisturized but I would not recommend prolonged use of it, its price point is also far too high and not inline with other brands. Big NO on this one.
Definately softer skin
Although I found that this product was too expensive, I found that it did in fact soften my skin but was comparable to other products that are less expensive. I liked the scent of the product but found it could have been a bit stronger. I enjoyed the product but unless it was on sale or if I received a discounted coupon, I probably will not purchase again. SORRY.
Never received!
Well, I would love to review this product but I never received the coupon! If it does eventually make its way to me, I will update this review. As it stands, I am kind of disappointed. I was really looking forward to trying this and now it feels like I have missed out on it twice.
Nice delicate parfum
I got my jar of vream for free from ChickAdvisor.
I like the packaging although the inner seal was open. I was about to return it but i noticed the cream was intact.
My first impression: i love the subtil parfum.
The cream feels hydrating and fresh, very smooth and pkeasant to the touch and non-greasy so i felt confident in dressing up right after applying without staining my clothes.
My skin stayed hydrated most of the day.
I like the product although it is not outstanding.
I would buy something else.
Disclosure:
I was sent this product for free for review.
Package:
The packaging is sleek, good looking and seems sturdy. The packaging is a tub, my less favourite format as the product comes in contact with air more and you have to use a spatula in order to minimize bacterial contamination of the product. That said, there might be a pump format for this product, but it is not the one I received to review.
Product:
As I read the ingredients, I notice it contains alcohol, silicone and mineral oil, which I am not a fan of. The cream itself is white, thick and creamy. There is a faint sweetish fragrance which is not my favourite, but I think this aspect depends on your taste.
Use and effectiveness:
The product glides easily on the skin. There is a tingling sensation when applying it where spots on my skin that are sun damaged or more dry, but it goes away after a few seconds and there was no other reaction (there was no reaction when I spot tested the product the night before on healthy skin). The cream leaves a creamy feeling on the skin when just applied, but it is not there when I wake up the day after. Right after the first application, I notice my skin is softer and appearances of dryness that was there before is lessen.
Overall:
The product did improve my skin for a reasonable price, but the package format and ingredients would discourage me from buy it again.
Great product - until you read the ingredient list.
I am always excited to try products through Chickadvisor and give my honest opinion and this was no exception. I like Nivea as a brand and was looking forward to this product. When I brought it home my first smell took me back to being a teen in the 90's and slathering on cocoa butter cream after tanning, we used to get big cheap jars of the stuff. I like the smell of cocoa butter and it was nice and thick and creamy. It does moisturize well and if you aren't picky about what is in the product than this is for you. My issue with it is that the second ingredient (after water) is mineral oil. Mineral oil is a petroleum product. With all the lovely plant based oils (some that have a bit in this like coconut oil and cocoa butter) I would much prefer to be using that on my body rather than a petroleum product. It is safe and won't kill you but it does clog pores and there are far better oils to use for your skin.
