Happiness for just $2!
I stumbled upon this Nivea cream at the dollar store, and what a find!
1. Hydration
It's packed with mineral oil, which helps lock in moisture and prevents your skin from drying out. I've heard the American version even includes petroleum jelly, making it even better!
2. Scent
While I'm not usually a fan of fragranced skincare, I don't mind it so much for hand or body creams. Personally, I love the scent of this Nivea cream. It's so soothing to apply after an evening shower - it really lifts my mood!
3. Price
With this level of hydration at such a low price, it's an absolute steal. Nivea is a long-established company, so you can trust the quality of their products. Forget those pricey body and hand creams - this is all you need!
I haven't found any downsides yet, except for the packaging. The lid opens too easily, making it tricky to carry in my bag as a portable moisturizer. There's a tube version available, but it seems I'd have to order that from overseas.
I recommend applying a generous amount to your hands before bed. It's also great for dry areas like your neck or knees.
