I have been the biggest fan of Nivea products for such a long time now, so the fact that I get surprise little packages from them is such a dream for me. I have been so lucky to be included in their Nivea Family and I love sharing their fabulous products with you.

I was recently sent a little bundle of products from them, all with being summer ready in mind.

First up, I received their Nivea Sun Protect & Moisture 50+ Water Resistant Sun Spray. A fab little product which is an essential at the moment as they’re now in August. The summer sun might be blocked a bit at the moment (because we’ve had so much rain recently?!) but wearing SPF is really important for your skin, even if it is cloudy. I wear Facial SPF daily so I definitely know how important it is. I always tend to buy Nivea Sunscreen as it’s got incredible protection and it’s super affordable. Having the Spray makes it really easy to constantly apply and I think the bottle is perfect as well, not too big or baulky but the perfect size for travelling/throwing in your handbag.

I also received their Dry Fresh 48H Protection Anti-Perspirant. I actually have both a Nivea SPF and Anti-Perspirant in my beauty stash at the moment anyway, so these are perfect backups! I normally try to get the Anti-Perspirants that don’t leave white marks (as I wear a lot of black clothing) so I never normally get to try their other scents. The great thing about this product is that it has been “life-tested” so should hold up pretty well however it can leave white marks so be careful of that!

Their Body Moisturising Mousse (48H Refreshing Instant Absorption) in the Fresh Cucumber & Matcha Tea Fragrance is such a lovely product that I am absolutely obsessed with. I gifted one of these to my mum for Mother’s Day this year (and I know she loves it!) so I’m quite happy that I’ve got one for myself to try. I feel like you do have to shake this for a good while for it to work however, it is such an easy product to use and it sinks into your skin SO quickly. This is a perfect product if you rush about in the mornings and still want to take care of your skin or just cannot wait for moisturiser to dry! I feel like there is also a sticky feeling to this but once this has absorbed, your skin just feels so lovely and soft. I love the scent of it too, it’s so refreshing and perfect for the morning.

The last few things I received included the Nivea Mango Shine Lip Balm (which just sounds like a heavenly product doesn’t it?) and their Deep Cleansing Shower Clay Fresh Body Wash (Ginger & Basil Scent.) I have been using the mango lip balm daily on my lips, I haven’t really noticed a colour pay off (which I’m quite glad about) but it has kept my lips wonderfully soft. This also seems to last for ages (I think because of the new melt in formula) and the scent is lovely.

The only product I am yet to try out of this lovely lot is the Clay Fresh Body Wash. I am planning on having a bit of a pamper tonight so I might give it a go then. It sounds like a wonderful product and is meant to deeply cleanse the skin without leaving it feeling dry/tight. I love the scent of this, it’s such an unusual scent however, in a hot shower I bet it’s lovely and uplifting.

Have you tried any of these Nivea products before?
