Review on ๐Ÿงด NIVEA Creme Moisturizing Cream for Body, Face, and Hands - 13.5 Oz Tin by Brittany Rodriguez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent product on the case

I am very happy with my purchase an old school product that serves its purpose. It does wonders for my hands and my face tolerates it very well. I would like to point out that there seems to be a lot of debate as to whether it is as good as the European version. I examined the ingredients and they look identical. They just don't look the same because some ingredients use different terms/names which I think is due to different labeling requirements. The most obvious difference, which most people won't care about, is the use of "water" in the US version and "aqua" in the European version, since most Americans know that "aqua" means water. This is the mineral oil debate, where it becomes an issue. The US version is clearly marked as "Mineral Oil" but the European version is not. So, I've seen a lot of people claim that this version doesn't have it. However, it does contain "Paraffinum Liquidum" or liquid paraffin, a special type of mineral oil. With that in mind, I see no reason to pay twice as much for an imported version of a product that is essentially exactly the same as that for the market I live in.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • The packaging is ugly
