Too scented for me! The instructions say to use it day and night but you don't need spf in your sleep! My husband and I could smell it on my face and he asked me if I was going to the beach! It smells that strongly of sunscreen. (My 12 & 14yo daughters agreed on the scent.)

Otherwise it wasn't too greasy on my combination skin.

I wish it was in a tube because you need to wash your hands before use to not contaminate the contents too much after opening.

I have a weird relationship with nivea products, I either love them or hate them. This one I hate. Made me break out and made me oily. I honestly have nothing good to say about this product.

This is my old standby. I am constantly trying new (usually expensive) face lotions and when they don’t work (and they usually don’t), I always go back to this. It always calms my sensitive combination skin and does a good job of basic moisturizing. Just don’t expect it to do anything else (firming, etc.) It is also cheap ($5). Just goes to show that cost does not make a product good.

I had mixed reactions when I initially used this product. Firstly, the strong floral scent put me off (but I guess that's typical of most Nivea products). Secondly, it did feel a bit too oily for my combination skin initially. But now that I've used it for the past few months, I have to admit that it has grown on me. It's a lot more lightweight than what I first thought, and the pump fuss-free packaging is great. I would tend to use this in the colder months, though, and would probably opt for something a bit more mattifying in summer.

My favorite moisturizer. Not greasy but doesn't leave my face dry, and doesn't make me break out. The only drawback is it's pretty hard to find.

I like the way it goes on my skin, and the SPF 15 was a big plus for me.

But during the day it felt really oily on my skin. Doesn't make my skin break out though.. maybe coz I don't apply it on my forehead :)

Its too greasy for my skin. I usually wear it when its cold or at night. I didn't like the scent, but it did make my skin smooth. My main complaint is that its too oily. I will not buy htis again.

I'm usually a big Nivea fan, but I didn't like this one. It's too greasy to use all over my oily face, and too irritating to use around my eyes (where I like to put it). Has a slippery finish that makes any eye makeup slide off. Also, the smell is just weird. I prefer their Q-10 formula.

Pardon if I cut and paste one of my other Nivea moisturizer reviews, as I have the same thing to say for this creme. All Nivea moisturizers, including the body crèmes, seem to be made of a similar formula. While they moisturize well enough, they are also somewhat greasy. Even my combination skin in the winter becomes unusually oily as a result of using this crème. I hate to waste products, so I am using this only as long as the cold season lasts and will not re-purchase.
