Sooo disappointed
I am 53 yrs old and have been using Nivea since I am 14, have also both my daughters on it since they’ve little girls. Sooo soo disppointed you ruined this amazing formulas (the skin firming for melanin too got changed) why ? Just why?? This now does NOT absorb, does NOT moisturize and does not leave the amazing sheen I have always adored and has kept my skin supple for years. Feels like you took off whatever ingredient that did these things and added a bunch of water, now the lotion feels like those toiletry ones they give at cheap motels, sorry. BRING BACK the original one, nobody likes this “new” version, is NOT good!!

Good choice
This lotion does a great job, it absorbs quickly and makes my skin so soft. The smell isn’t really something I’m into so I just use the lotion before bed.

Very thick and not especially moisturizing! I was hoping that this was similar to the Hydroboost lotion in effectiveness but it's not and doesn't work any better than lubriderm.

Formula change
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this particular Nivea since 2014. When I started using it it changed my life, my skin was finally seen and my issues were taken care of. And now over a decade later a crappy formula change ruined my Favorite lotion. I unfortunately am not a fan. The OG was incredible why did you change!?

gross - please return to old formula
I have been using this product through several name changes (extra enriched; enriched with Vit. D) and it was always fine. I liked the way it worked and that it had no fragrance. I often received compliments on my youtful appearance and always said " I've been moisturizing daily since I was 18 and bragged about the nivea extra enriched, but this is gross and will make sure to tell everyone. Now it stinks. Additionally, I now have a light rash on my face, athough I can't be sure it is from the new formula until I quit using it. I will go back to curel/lubriderm until you take out the fragrance.

Love the scent and quick drying!
A friend of mine introduced me to this lotion and I love it so much! I really like the baby powder smell and my skin feels soft and it lasts a long time too!

Do not recommend
I bought this on sale and have used it for 2 months, my skin became increasingly drier, sore, itchy and flaking. One day back using Curel and my skin is feeling moisturized and so much better,

Heartbreaking new formula is not good
Not hydrating, broke out my skin, and I’ve been a loyal customer, my aunts used to smell like Nivea, you have ruined core memories w/ my family by changing the smell. Now it smells like baby powder and you ruined your legacy. So sad, I want a refund and an apology by return to the old formula

Bad new formula
If Nivea does go back to the original, many will have already moved on. The new formula is thin. Not shiny. And I loved the old version. Booo Nivea

Bad smelling new formula
You ruined my favorite lotion.New one smells generic and cheap and baby powdery I’m throwing mine away. The old formula smelled luxurious and a true nivea smell . This new formula is so abhorrent. Smells like a doodoo

Bring back the old formula!
I had no idea there was a change until I needed to restock. Saw the new 72h HA version and was excited to try. The smell is absolutely overpowering - strong baby powder smell and it makes me feel like my throat and nose is burning. Even my husband commented on how it smelled bad. Also, it’s very sticky and greasy and leaves me feeling like I need another shower. I will have to find something else to use. Annoyed that I bought the biggest bottle because I had loved this stuff so much. Don’t fix what isnt broken!!!

Smells like all rich Nivea products, works well
I used the original Nivea lotion decades ago. But I didn't like it, and I thought the smell was too strong. As I have aged, my legs are even more dry now than they used to be. So I gave this lotion a try. I love it! It smells just like the old stuff in my opinion, but maybe even slightly lighter. I feel like almost all Nivea products have that same type of base sent. It does go on thick, but I just use a whole lot of it so I can smear it everywhere and I don't have to worry about it pulling on my skin like some reviewers. It takes a little time, not a lot, and then it is absorbed in the skin. And then throughout the day, my skin feels unbelievably soft. I thought my skin would never feel this soft because I'm older now. But it feels amazing with this lotion. Thank you! Although, judging from the comments, you probably should've made this a different lotion instead of completely reformulating the first and taking it off the market.

Greasy!
This is the worst lotion I’ve ever bought! It’s so greasy no matter how much you rub your hands and it gets on your clothes, desk, keyboard etc. I threw it away the first day.
