I've Joined The Nivea Family! | A Look At What I Received In My Welcome Pack

-If a product is marked with an * then it was PR/Gifted to me. This post contains no sponsored content-

I recently joined the Nivea Family which is a community of bloggers who love all things Nivea which is not only super exciting(!) but it also means quite a lot to me as they're a brand both me and my family have used for years. The classic Nivea scent is actually quite sentimental to me because my nan (on my mum's side) who passed away when I was 6 years old used to use the classic Nivea Creme so the scent reminds me of her and is quite comforting to me I guess. My mum has also been a Nivea fan for as long as I can remember as well. They kindly sent over a Welcome Package recently and I've been testing out the products that I haven't tried before so that's what I'm going to be talking about in this post as well as the products I'm already familiar with that I received the parcel too. 

Also before I begin, I just want to say that Nivea haven't instructed me to post this blog post. I have full creative control of what I write about and this is not a sponsored blog post. But I am excited to finally talk about being a part of the Nivea Family and I wanted to kind of do an introduction blog post.

The first product I'm going to talk about is the MicellAIR Skin Breathe Micellar Water Make-up Remover* which I'm actually already familiar with as I do use it sometimes. I kind of flip between the Micellar Water and the MicellAir Skin Breathe Professional Make-up Remover which is more of an oily makeup remover so it's great for waterproof eye makeup. However, the Skin Breathe Micellar Water is great for both makeup removal or just as a quick cleanse which is particularly good for me if I'm having a bad pain day and I just don't have the energy or I'm in too much pain to do a proper cleanse. So I would recommend if you're looking for micellar water as it does the job well and it's also unscented and suitable for sensitive skin.

I was excited to see a new product from the MicellAir Skin Breathe Professional range in the Welcome Package. The MicellAIR Skin Breathe Professional Exfoliating Face Wash* with Lactic Acid has quickly become one of my current fave skincare products because it just works so well! I know a lot of people have moved on from manual facial scrubs to chemical exfoliators but I personally still love a manual scrub (as long as they're not too scrubby) as I just think manual scrubs are quite satisfying to use. The MicellAIR Exfoliating Face Wash is more on the gentle side when it comes to scrubs and it really does leave your skin look radiant and feeling really soft. I'm obsessed!

The Q10 Energy Recharging Night Cream* for tired, dull skin with first lines is something I'd probably only use when my skin is looking or feeling a little dry, just because it is on the thicker side which I kind of expected with it being a night cream. However, it hasn't caused me to break out, it doesn't feel heavy and it sinks into my skin pretty quickly so I don't have any complaints, it's just that I tend to prefer a lighter moisturiser or a gel moisturiser, it's kind of what I'm accustomed to. I do think it gives my skin a nice boost and my skin always feels plumper the following morning and I also like the citrusy scent. 

The Q10 Energy Instant Recharge Sheet Mask* with Vitamin C and Skin Identical Q10 is a great way to perk up your skin if you're looking tired. The mask itself is biodegradable which gets big thumbs up from me! It's super refreshing and you only have to leave it on for 10 minutes and then you just massage any remaining serum into your skin, neck and decollete or you can remove any excess serum with a cotton pad.

I also received another face mask in my Welcome Package which is the Bye Bye Dry Skin Nourishing Face Mask* for dry skin but I've passed it onto my mum as my skin is on the oilier side and I think the Bye Bye Dry Skin would be better suited for my mum's dry/sensitive skin but she hasn't got around to trying it out yet. 

Moving onto the two bodycare products I received in the package...

 

I received the Refreshing Shower Fresh Blends With Apricot, Mango and Rice Milk* which is blended with naturally derived ingredients, fruit extracts and plant-based milk. It actually arrived at a perfect time as I've become obsessed with Apricot yoghurts recently for some reason haha. I love that the packaging kind of looks like a smoothie, however, the scent definitely leans more towards the Mango than the Apricot but it's still refreshing and nice to use in the morning to kickstart your day. I've also noticed that there are a few other scents in the Fresh Blends range and I'm particularly interested in trying the Watermelon and Mint Shower Gel so I will definitely give it a whirl soon.

Lastly is the Refreshingly Soft Moisturising Cream with Jojoba Oil & Vitamin E* which is super versatile as it's suitable for the face, body and hands. I've bought this cream a number of times before but I tend to use it as a hand cream and it does a great job at keeping your hands super soft. If you're looking for a super cheap hand cream then I can't recommend this one enough, I also love the fresh, clean scent as well.

  1. Who doesn’t love a good Nivea haul?! Nivea has been a love of mine ever since I got into wearing moisturiser really, back in my school days. These bits look great, I’ll definitely have to pick some of them up on my next trip to Boots. Their make up wipes are some of my favs x
