Nivea Daily Essentials Express Hydration Primer Review

Nivea hydration primer launched many months ago but I have never done a review on this product. So here we go...

Nivea hydration primer comes in a glass packaging, so it feels really heavy and can smash when dropped on a hard surface. It has a screw top lid which means I can get to every single bit of product left in the jar to finish it off. One thing I hate about tubes, is that its very hard to get all the product out and I feel like I am wasting the product. So for me, this is perfect since I can get to all the product.

 When I applied it to the face, it felt quite fresh and a wet feeling which went away after 5 minutes max. It left my face feeling soft and fresh. It felt like my skin was hydrated a lot more after I used this product and left my skin smooth. There is no chemical smell, just a very fresh smell (not very good at pinpointing smells by the way).The lotion is a white colour but when blended into the skin, it turns clear.

Half way through the day, it seemed like my make-up was just about there, got quite shiny but nothing too bad. By the end of the day, I usually use my superdrug tea tree cleanser and boots cotton pad to take my make-up off, I hardly got any product on the pad which means either my make-up has slid of my face or absorbed into my skin which is thanks to the Nivea express hydration primer.
