Thread: Nivea Creme

Hello,

Normally I buzz my head without a guard on the clippers but every once in a while I like to shave it. Last night I shaved it with my Griffin Carbo Magnetic, I only did a one pass shave WTG and had my girlfriend do the back of my head for me. I used Nivea Creme for the first time on my head and I was very nice. Wasn't oily and didn't irritate my skin at all. If you havent used it before check it out. It has a lemon fresh smell and is extremely thick.

Have a good day,

Chris

Hello, Chris,
Nivea cream is good stuff and worth the money. Also it is readily available at most pharmacies.

This is far from the first time I have heard great things about this stuff. If they only sold it where I shop. May have to order.

Ah excellent, it's smells kinda like lemon sherbert to me i didn't realise it came in the blue tub, shall have to have a look for some. Cheers Chris

Nivea makes good shaving cream as well. Paired with some triple milled soap it's always been a sure bet for me.

I've been using it literally all my life. Have the Anit-irritation ASB, Moisturising ASB, and the cream. I think my GF bought the 'soft', pretyy much the same stuff as I can tell. And I think here you still get it in the tin can. Although the 'soft' came in the tub. It's almost done so I'll probably use the tub as a shaving soap/cream container, perfect size.

Nivea makes great stuff period, although they slightly watered down some of the ASB's. Shame.

How are you guys using it, as a face moisturizer or as an aftershave substitute?

Unfortunately, I'm afraid that if my wife found me smearing Nivea on my face for any reason I would likely be forced to hand over my Manship card amidst fits of laughter....

....perhaps I'll stick with my regular routine!

Well, Mr. Yadgar, you haven't steered me wrong yet. I picked some up and if what it did to my elbows is any indication of its performance, I cannot say enough.
