I received this product from Nivea for a competition. I initially loved the feel of the moisturiser, it's very thick and creamy. My skin felt very smooth and looked lovely and glowy. However, it broke me out quite badly. Although I did sort of expect it, as my skin generally doesn't do so well with heavier moisturisers, it was still quite disappointing. I'm not sure if I'll be able to use it once in a while when my skin is feeling dry, but at this point I'm not too keen to use it again.

I bought this months ago, it didn't break me out but I thought a more priced moisturiser would work better and bought the korres wild rose which made my skin drier. After using different brands of moisturisers from nivea to estee lauder and clinique, this one definitely worth the money and moisturises skin better than others. A review here said something about leaving a layer on the skin, it's probably because of the aloe Vera as I got an aloe Vera gel and has the same feeling of that layer on the skin before it is totally absorbed. A very nice moisturiser better than any expensive one. I will definitely buy this again.

This is soo greasy so a lil goes a long way.. u just need a little or else it doesnt absorb..i lov the smell and normally wear this at night cos there no SPF. i got this cos of the hype by Kate Middleton who loves this product. Its very moisturizing so i also use this on my elbows/legs as well. Overall i would use this during winter cos this is really heavy duty but not in hot weather cos its too oily

I really wanted to like this and I gave it a fair chance.. Unfortunately it just didn't work for me. It feels like there is a layer that kind of dries on my skin? Like it just sits there and kind of hardens! I've tried applying it on dry and wet skin, and in different thicknesses. Just doesn't sink in. I usually really like Nivea products but so sad this one didn't work for me. Luckily I didn't get irritations or breakouts or anything.

This product was just not good for me. It felt so heavy and greasy on my skin, and just sat there on my skin like it was waiting for something (LOL) so it never really absorbed into my skin. It did moisturize my face, but just too long to absorb and felt waay too greasy

hhhhmmm I wanted to like this but I did not (well apart from the nice smell) It broke me out slightly and left a slight film of grease on my face. It's ok as a night cream but for me I'd need the one for sensitive skin.

Pros: very moisturising, got rid of skin flakes. Cheap.
Cons: made my skin sensitive. I didn't break out from it, but my cheeks became red each time I applied it. Clearly there is some ingredient here that is sensitizing. I rarely react to skin products, by the way. I would not buy it again.

I have extremely sensitive skin. For the last couple of years I've been using Eucerin's sensitive skin moisturizer and it's perfect for my skin. But recently I decided to try a new moisturizer. I read the ingredients on dozens of products until I decided on this one.
Nivea's Pure & Natural is terrible. As soon as I tried it, my skin felt extremely tingly and itchy. I kept using it in hopes that my skin would accept it, but it only got worse. Now it makes my face feel like it's on fire. I stopped using it and threw it in the trash.
This moisturizer doesn't seem "pure & natural" at all. And it stinks to high heaven. I don't like how intense its perfume is. I wish it were fragrance free!

This is my hg face moisturizer! I use this day and night. It doesn't break me out, and I break out really easily. I'm trying to stay away from parabens, silicones and other bad ingredients. The other Nivea products contain these, but I read the ingredients on this a million times over, and it's perfect! It also doesn't test on animals, which is a big plus. I've never, and I mean NEVER bought the same face wash/lotion twice. I'm already more than halfway through my second jar of this, and I plan on buying a third! I still haven't found the perfect facewash yet, but I've defenitely found my perfect moisurizer!!

Just fr general information, I am 18, have VERY dry skin and have probably had about 3 spots in my entire life. I didn't buy this product because I heard raves about it or that I thought it would actually be a good moisturiser. I only used this because I needed a substitute for my Dermalogica which I will always prefer.

The problem I have with this product is that it is VERY deceiving to me; it smells amazing, feels fresh when you first put it on your face... but 3 days after using this my cheeks were covered in tiny little red dots/spots.. very very very weird for me!!! I know i have dry and sensitive skin, however this product clearly erupts spots rapidly!

Seriously never never ever using it again, it's horribly and the spots on my cheeks are just... odd!!! They are not the little white ones you have to wait to pop, it just looks like someone has thrown darts at my face!!

BEWARE!!!!!

I got a sample of this day cream and have been trying it out for the last week. This day cream from Nivea is greasy. It does not absorb well into skin and is not very moisturizing. I wouldn't purchase this.

I found this greasy to start and after time my skin began to feel dry. Looking at the ingredients and seeing it has alcohol I won't use this again.

I have the Soothing version of this and I love it! It's biggest downfall however is the fact it does not have SPF. If it did it would have been more highly rated. I have oily skin so find it hard to get a moisturiser that works for me...and something about this just does. I love the texture and how quickly it absorbs into my skin. Would definatley buy again!

Just love it! I have combination skin, oily in summer and so dry and sloughy in the winter, and I have psoriasis.
This is totally help me, I have tried many of skin care products but I paid some expensive and alot inexpensive, It's nice texture and after one week I feel my skin so moisture and so much better.
But It's too strong scent, anyway I love it because It makes my skin looks better.

Even though it states it's a day cream, I would use it for both day and night as it doesn't contain SPF and is heavy enough to use at night. But after 2 weeks use, I find this leaves my T zone very oily.. and thus breakout. I have stopped using it to prevent further breakouts. I have normal/combo skin and the package states it's geared for that skin type, however i would think it would be more suited for those with normal/dry skin types. Even with the fall season and cold weather, it leaves my skin looking oily. I also hate the smell, not sure why they would try to promote a natural product and give it a very chemical scent. The only pros about it is the texture, and that a little goes a long way.

I was looking for a cheap, but good night cream that wouldn't break me out and I think I've found it! The only thing I don't like about it is that it comes in a jar. A pump would be much better.
