Every day thousands of the iconic rounded blue cans leave Nivea’s headquarters in Hamburg, Germany. Since the first one was sold, everything else has been part of the story of one of the best-selling creams in the world for over a century..
Nivea cream is one of those historic products that have a recipe that no one knows except their manufacturers. As much as we have wanted to replicate it over these more than 130 years of history, we have always opted for the ‘old reliable’ when we were in trouble or wanted to guarantee its effectiveness.
The uses of Nivea Creme and its versatility are quite diverse. Although the its main use is hydration, thanks to its ingredients such as panthenol, eucerit and glycerin, among others. These compounds can work effectively in treating other skin conditions and therefore, we can use them for various purposes with unparalleled results.
Body moisturizer
The main and best known is excellent body hydration. Its creaminess and formulation make it the best option for all types, but it is especially beneficial for drier skin.
Stretch marks treatment
Different experts recommend highly regenerating lotions to treat stretch marks and Nivea cream is perfect for reducing them and preventing the appearance of new ones.
Anti-wrinkle cream
Its unctuous nature makes it especially suitable for people with very dry skin who need extra hydration.
Soothing for the skin
When we shave, the skin is often more irritated and damaged than ever, which is why Nivea cream is ideal for relieving this sensation. In addition, it can act as an after-sun to rehydrate the skin and alleviate possible redness.
Treatment to lighten dark circles
Over the years, Nivea cream has gained particular prominence when it comes to neutralizing dark circles. If we apply it with circular massages, we not only provide the hydration it needs, but we also improve circulation. Stimulating this area will reduce puffiness, bags and dark circles, combating signs of tiredness and at the same time having an anti-aging action, improving firmness and reducing wrinkles.
Elbow, knee and hand care
These areas of the body, in general, are the ones that experience the most dryness. Whether due to the weather or various factors, the situation is not only unpleasant, but can be uncomfortable and harmful, and can even result in injuries. Nivea cream can improve your appearance after constant application thanks to its formulation.
Thigh irritation
If with the arrival of summer the skin in this region becomes irritated due to irritation on the thighs, Nivea cream can become a great ally in your care and hydration routine.
Treatment for dry lips
It is possible that during winter and cold, your lips become drier and your skin becomes brittle. With a thin layer we can hydrate them and regenerate this area.
Dry heels
The heels of our feet tend to dry out in the summer. But you can use Nivea and deeply hydrate this area.
Body scrub
We can make our own Nivea sugar and cream scrub at home. The recipe is as simple as mixing the two ingredients in a container, two spoons of sugar and two of Nivea cream. If we want a gentler exfoliation, we can add a little olive oil.
Hair mask
Although hairdressing treatments have been considered the king of hydration for years, there are certain remedies that work for those who can’t or don’t want to pay for the first option. Nivea cream can help hair regain health, shine and hydration.
Remove makeup
Its oily base is what can remove and dissolve all makeup, even eye makeup, although in the latter case it is more recommended to apply it in a second cleansing. On the skin, in addition to eliminating debris and residue, its unctuous nature makes it especially suitable for people with very dry skin who need extra hydration.
Tattoo treatment
Tattooed skin needs more care than normal, Nivea cream has a formula enriched with dexpanthenol and urea specially created to intensely regenerate extra-dry skin.
Widen your shoes
The only thing you have to do is apply a little product to the part you want to widen. Stuff your shoes with balls of newspaper and then place them near a radiator or heat source so they soften and the skin loosens.
Cleaning leather accessories
The product works to eliminate dirt and hydrate it, restoring natural shine, elasticity and beauty from the first day.
