NIVEA recently launched a brand new skin-care collection combining advanced skin-care expertise with effective natural ingredients to work in perfect harmony with the skin! I was so lucky to get to trail this new NIVEA Pure & Natural Face, Body and Handcare line over the last few weeks to see what my thoughts were :)
The Pure & Natural range basically means that 95% of the ingredients are of natural origin and are enriched with Bio Argan Oil & Bio Aloe Vera plus containing:
♥ No Parabens
♥ No Solicones
♥ No Colourants
♥ No Mineral Oils
The magic for this new range all lies in the lead ingredient of 100% organic Argan Oil. A natural source of Vitamin E, Argan Oil contains three times as much Vitamin E as Olive Oil and is a natural antioxidant. Rich in essential, precious fatty acids it provides effective and natural protection against free radicals whilst proven to create a skin smoothing effect.
So without any further ado: Introducing the new NIVEA Natural & Pure Range:
Face Care
♥ NIVEA Pure & Natural Facial Moisturising Day Cream for normal to combination skin
"With optimum doses of moisturising Argan Oil and oh so soothing Chamomile it naturally soothes and softens skin whilst hydrating and nourishing with 24 hour care. Chamomile is known for its protective and anti-inflammatory properties which restores sensitive skin’s natural balance while guarding against irritation."
My views: This cream is available for normal to combination skin & also for dry to sensitive skin. I got the dry & sensitive skin one and found it very soft and refreshing on my face. Not too greasy and felt light but still moisterising. Priced at £5.10 per 50ml.
♥ NIVEA Pure & Natural Facial Cleanser and Facial Toner
"Used together these fabulous skin cleaners gently wipe away dirt and grime, whilst exotic Moroccan Argan Oil and Aloe Vera replenish and restore skin’s vitality, supporting cell regeneration and helping to protect against free radicals."
My views: This toner is absolutely my favourite of the range. It really cleanses the skin and leaves it feeling so refreshed without being harsh on your skin. So fresh - I loved it! The lotion is lovely but I have to admit that 'milky' cleansers just aren't really my kind of thing. These are both priced at £3.36. I would definitely re-purchase this toner!
BodyCare
♥ NIVEA Pure & Natural Body Lotion for normal to dry skin
"Enriched with our key ingredient Argan Oil, a natural source of Vitamin E, it has outstanding antioxidant properties and offers long lasting effective protection with plenty of moisture, leaving bodies everywhere silky smooth to the touch."
My views: Another favourite from this range! With the recent harsh winter weather my skin, especially my legs, has been pretty dry and flaky :( After using this lotion for a few days straight on my legs I noticed a real difference; reduced flakeyness and softer fresh skin! I like how it absorbes into the skin quite quickly as some moisterisers can make your skin quite sticky for a while after applying. The smell is also nice and fresh and not too overpowering which can really put me off some moisturizers. Priced at £3.57.
HandCare
♥ NIVEA Pure & Natural hand Cream
"The creamy formula sinks in immediately yet work intensively to restore the skin’s natural moisturising balance, protecting and nourishing dry hands all day long."
My views: No major comments needed, just a fab little hand cream for a fab little price of £3.05. Like it promises it leaves your hands smooth but not sticky, it just soaks into the skin!
LipCare
♥ NIVEA Pure & Natural Lip Balm
"This Lip Balm is overflowing with natural ingredients to intensively care for lips leaving them soft and nourished. Leading with Milk, a cooling and anti-inflammatory agent, and Honey, a hydrating ingredient that increases lips’ essential moisture, the powerful combination binds water to the skin moisturising lips to the max! Plus Shea Butter containing several natural moisturisers that are similar to the moisturisers produced by the skin’s sebaceous glands works with Jojoba Oil which is easily absorbed and protects lips, nature’s finest ingredients leaves lips with a soft supple pout."
My views: Great soft lip balm, a perfect hand bag winter staple to have. The milk & honey touch is lovely but not too overpowering. However, I have always been been a fan of Nivea Lip Balms so wasn't suprised that this one lived up to it's promises :) A bargain at £1.99
The Nivea Pure & Natural line will be available nation wide from the 20th February.
