NIVEA Men Sensitive Skin Shaving Gel with Vitamin E - 7oz: Paraben-Free, Face Application, Scented

I started buying this shaving gel for my husband 6 months ago. He noticed that his skin is definitely noticeably less dry after shaving with it and he no longer experiences dry patchy rashes on his face.

New formula is horrible. After 10+ years I'm off to find another product. It is no longer creamy and doesn't "gather". The scent is also different and not pleasant. It's not as effective. It's obvious they removed ingredients or changed to save money. However a bad gamble as you can see by others. I will find another brand. Shame.

I've purchased this product for years. It WAS the best. Now, it's the WORST. Why would the desire to be more biodegradable permit a complete loss of product performance and quality? Simply a terrible reformulation. We are men with sensitive skin, we could care less about biodegradability. Please return to the original formula.

I have been using Nivea shaving gel for ages. I liked the older products even better but still used their shavng gel, that is up until this very moment. In the midst of a shave, I just cracked open a 2-pack to finish my shave. This product is beyound horrible. The previous can was fine but the new formula won't gather together nor stay on my face. Thinking maybe it's just a bad can I proceeded to open the 2nd one, and again, this so called product doesn't work. It doesn't moisturize, it doesn't stay on one's face nor will it combine into a whole. It's horrible. Tomorrow I will figure out what brand of shaving gel I will switch to? As for this new formula 2-pack I just purchased, it's going straight into the garbage where it belongs.

The best!

This new biodegradable formula makes me feel like I’m dry shaving. Had to switch brands!

The new formula is not good. It creates a cheap foam that doesn’t work into your face well. It smells bad too. Too bad I bought a two pack.

Nivea Men Sensitive Shave Gel has been my preferred brand for decades, because it was a superior product. No more. I have a thick coarse beard that requires shaving twice (with and against the grain). I used to do that with a single application, now I have to lather up twice...and I do mean "lather up", because it now turns to foam almost instantly. If I wanted to buy foam I would have bought the Foam, instead of the Gel, which I prefer for it's lubrication and staying power. The new formula clumps up, and dries out. It's terrible. What focus group of morons thought this was an improvement? It is clearly an inferior product, so the only reason for change must be that it is cheaper to produce. Some bean counter has ruined my shaving experience. I originally switched from Edge (the very first shaving gel) to Nivea. Now I have to go and test every other gel on the market to find something worthwhile, because Nivea blew it this time. I raved about it for decades as the best you could buy. No more. Too bad I can't give zero or negative stars for a rating.

Great Shaving Gel for getting ridiculously of beard hair. It feels good after shaving since you don't feel irritated

The new formula is far from an upgrade. It’s so bad that I took the time to write this review. I had been using the product for 20 years and have stepped away. The scent is off, it’s inconsistent can per can, and actually makes shaving harder. Extremely disappointed.

Good for sensitive skin.

So I’m at Woolies wanting to buy a can of shaving gel for sensitive skin. Excellent product that I have been using for years - I KNOW what I want. The mugs at Nivea have changed the packaging for some inexplicable reason - it looks somewhat similar but now has a green band around the top

Great, when it works. I got 2 or 3 uses before it stopped dispensing gel. Very expensive for 2 or 3 shaves.

Love this whipped cream. Tastes like fresh homemade.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new biodegradable formula sucks. I've used this brand for years but now have to find a new brand.

I've used this product for years. The recent formula change is awful. Irritated skin, it's super thin, and doesn't create a smooth shave. I am looking for a new product when my current ones are used up. It stinks when something worked so well for so long is ruined when it wasn't broken to begin with.

I’ve used this product for as long as I can remember, and it was the best shaving cream. I don’t know what you did with the new formula, but this is by far the worst shaving cream I’ve ever used in my entire life. I wish I could get my money back for this.

I’ve used this product for years and would’ve given it 5/5 stars. I shave my head and face. I usually put cream on my face and head then shave my face first then my head. Never had any issues. They changed the formula and the shaving cream is just about dissipated by the time I’m done shaving my face. I’ve been cutting myself often now where before I never did. Bring back the old formula !

I have used this product for years. They went from a small squeeze tube that worked awesome. Then to a pump that didn’t work at all I had to use it like a dip stick. Suffered through 3 bottles that way. Now not only did you change the bottle which works better than the pump, but you changed the formula to something that looks like shaving cream but feels like sandpaper. I will be finding a new brand.

bought online to pick up in person and came with missing cap
