Nivea Oil Infused Body Lotion with Cherry Blossom and Jojoba Oil - 16.9 fl oz: Paraben-Free, For Normal & Dry Skin, Whole Body Application

This new formula does not absorb into skin. It feels gross and it does not smell good. I used the old one religiously and don’t want to use this new formula at all. I am so sad :(.

This has been my favorite lotion before the new formula! I used it daily, loved the smell, the texture, the absorption! The new formula is terrible! It sticks to the skin and doesn't absorb at all! And even after great efforts of rubbing it onto my skin to force absorption, my skin doesn't feel hydrated! Why did you ruin a perfect product? why? Now I'm stuck with a bottle that I can't use, I can't return, and I have to put it in the trash!

This was the first lotion I ever found that I didn't hate. Usually after applying most lotions, you can feel it on your skin long after it's dried. You couldn't feel this one at all! It was so nice, I was actually using it every day because of how easy it was to apply it and not have to worry about keeping my skin smooth and hydrated. But the new formula doesn't compare in the slightest. The residual, caked on feeling is very prominent now. It doesn't go on smoothly, taking a lot more effort to blend it into the skin to avoid white spots, and even then it's hard for it to completely fade. I was worried when I saw a new formula had come out, but this is beyond disappointing. I intend to return it and start my search for a good lotion again, because this just isn't it anymore. Extremely disappointing, as I'd been recommending this lotion to anyone who was looking. Now I just feel bad for potentially making them buy this new, worse formula. If there's any way for the formula could be changed back I'm sure I would not be the only one to come back, but until then I wish you luck with your enshittification.

This completely broke my heart. I knew when I saw the new bottle that that meant consumers were about to be degraded. This was my absolute favorite lotion this scent as well as the coconut scent. The scent is not the same. The quality is not the same. It is not moisturizing at all. This is one of the biggest injustices I was already so heartbroken when Nivea soft changed the formula. The crappy version it is now and I immediately stopped purchasing. I just don't understand why you would do that to your consumer base

New formula does not absorb!! Bring back the old formula!! I used it for years

I’ve used this lotion for six or seven years. I recently bought a bottle of the “new formula” and like many others here, I hate it and will not purchase again. It doesn’t absorb into the skin like the original formula and it does not smell anything like the original which was amaaazing. Please bring back the old formula.!

This is my daughter’s favorite lotion out of the dozens we have tried. It moisturizes great, the smell is lovely and it dries quickly and doesn’t leave you feeling greasy afterwards.

The title says it all I’m so upset that you changed the formula of the cherry blossom lotion it’s more oily than the old one and kind of burns a bit now on my dry skin so please change it back I like the older formula better because it’s moisturizing without being too oily and has more of a watery feeling than oily. Bring it back.

Love this lotion ~ it is a repeat purchase!

I've never written a product review before, but I am genuinely distraught over this formula change. I loved the old formula; it was amazing and my favorite lotion. It has a great smell and amazing light texture. It absorbed into the skin so easily. This new formula is terrible! It smells weird and does not absorb. The texture is like silicon and awful. It is clear they cut corners to make it cheaper to produce. They even have it titled as "oil in lotion" instead of the original "oil-infused" lotion. I will not repurchase this unless they change the formula back.

Please return the old formula and scent. The lasting effect is so low it’s almost a waste because I have to keep applying it. The old formula would last all day and I have super dry skin which requires a great deal of hydration. The new formula must have quick evaporating liquids and less oil(s) in its content. As far as the scent the new scents are horrible. I smell like I was doused with an entire perfume bottle attacking the olfactory senses. The old scent albeit distinctive, it was milder and pleasantly received by others in close proximity. I have finally given up on Nivea and until the original returns I will be seeking another brand.

The new formula is not nearly hydrating as the old formula. Please bring back the old formula as I will be looking for a replacement. I had used this lotion for years. I hate it when companies say, " new and improved". Which really means "cheapened for more profit."

The cherry blossom lotion was my husband and I’s favorite lotion until it was changed. The “new formula” does not feel the same and it smells terrible. It literally smells like a dirty armpit. Very disappointed in the recent changes.

Just purchased the Cherry Blossom scent and the lotion doesn't seem to absorb into skin like it use to. Did the formula change? Please change back if it did... May need to change to another brand but has been using this for years... what happened?

I really don't know why everyone is hating on this product, but to me this smells really good, it melts into your skin leaving a smooth finish. I will repurchase this again.

I recently purchased this and it smells like body odor. The first few uses I couldn't tell where the smell was coming from. Unfortunately, I realized it was the lotion. Eeeeyuck! It's a " no" for me.

They changed the formula and packaging and it's so much worse now. The texture of the lotion is waxy somehow and you can feel it on your skin long after it should have been absorbed. It smells like chemicals, almost like bad tanning lotion. There is barely a hint of cherry blossom scent now. There is nothing good about the changes they made to this product so I will never buy Nivea again. I always loved the quality and value of Nivea lotion but sadly they made the product way worse just like so many other products lately.

Původní krém byl skvělý, úžasné a bezkonkurenční složení, vůně, vstřebávání. To nové letělo hned do koše, s tím skvělým původním produktem to nemá společného vůbec nic! Konzistence strašná, mastná, nevstrebava se, nevoní. Tohle se opravdu nepovedlo ... budu hledat u jiné značky...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new formula is not good. I have tried to give it a shot but it's no where near as good as the old formula. I will be seeking a new lotion product (i was a consistent buyer for 5 years.)
