The Classic. The Reliable. The Icon. Nivea Moisturizing Cream.
Nivea Moisturizing Cream is the moisturiser that needs no introduction — the iconic blue tin that has been a trusted part of skincare routines for over a century, now in the practical, travel-ready 75ml / 2.54 fl oz size that delivers Nivea’s signature deep, long-lasting hydration wherever you go. Formulated to deeply moisturise dry skin, restore its elasticity, and maintain the comfortable, healthy skin feeling that comes from genuinely replenished hydration, it is the multi-purpose moisturising staple that works on face, hands, body, and anywhere the skin needs reliable, effective care. At $11.44, it is the accessible, dependable moisturiser that a century of skincare trust has made one of the world’s most-used daily skin care products.
Dry skin is more than a cosmetic concern — it is a barrier function issue. When the skin’s outermost layer loses moisture faster than it can retain it, the barrier’s protective function is compromised: the tight, uncomfortable, sometimes flaky or itchy feeling of dry skin is the sensory experience of a barrier that is no longer doing its job effectively. Nivea Moisturizing Cream’s formulation addresses this at its source — delivering deep, intensive hydration that penetrates beyond the skin’s surface to restore the moisture levels that the barrier depends on to function, while its occlusive components seal the skin’s surface to slow the transepidermal water loss that allows moisture to escape. The result is the long-lasting hydration that Nivea has built its global reputation on — moisture that stays in the skin throughout the day rather than evaporating within hours of application, and skin that feels consistently soft, supple, and comfortable rather than requiring constant reapplication to maintain its comfort.
Key Benefits
- Deep, intensive hydration for dry skin — moisturises beyond the surface to restore the skin’s moisture levels and the comfortable, healthy feeling that adequate hydration creates
- Long-lasting moisture retention — the formula’s occlusive action seals hydration into the skin and slows transepidermal water loss for hydration that lasts throughout the day and overnight
- Restores and enhances skin elasticity — well-hydrated skin is more supple and resilient, and the Nivea Moisturizing Cream’s deep hydration restores the elasticity that dry, dehydrated skin progressively loses
- Nourishes and protects — a moisturiser that does more than hydrate, providing the nourishment that skin needs to maintain its health, softness, and resilience against daily environmental stressors
- Multi-purpose formula suitable for face, hands, and body — the single moisturiser that simplifies the skincare routine by working effectively wherever the skin needs hydration and care
- Compact 75ml / 2.54 fl oz travel-friendly size — the complete daily moisturiser in a portable format that fits in a handbag, gym bag, or carry-on without taking up space or exceeding liquid restrictions
- Over a century of skincare expertise behind every application — the trusted Nivea formulation that has been refined over 100+ years of consumer use and dermatological development
Suggested Use
Apply the Nivea Moisturizing Cream morning and evening after cleansing, or any time the skin feels dry or uncomfortable throughout the day. Take a small amount — a pea-sized quantity is sufficient for the face; apply more generously to larger dry areas on the hands and body — and warm between fingertips before massaging gently into the skin in circular upward motions until fully absorbed. For maximum moisture retention: apply to slightly damp skin after cleansing or showering while the skin still retains surface moisture — the cream’s occlusive components will seal this surface moisture into the skin along with its own hydrating ingredients, significantly extending the duration of the hydration it delivers. For intensive overnight treatment of very dry skin: apply a slightly more generous layer to the driest areas — hands, elbows, heels, and face — before sleep and allow the cream to work overnight, when the skin’s natural repair and regeneration processes are most active and receptive to intensive moisturisation.
Key Features

Nivea’s Classic Moisturising Formula — Over a Century of Refinement: The Nivea Moisturizing Cream formula has been continuously refined since the brand’s founding to maintain its position as one of the world’s most effective and widely used daily moisturisers — a product whose longevity is the result not of brand recognition alone but of a formulation that genuinely delivers the deep, long-lasting hydration that consumers return to it for year after year. The 75ml format preserves the full integrity of this classic formula in a size optimised for travel, personal use, and on-the-go skin care — the complete Nivea moisturising experience in its most portable expression
-
Deep Hydration Mechanism — Beyond Surface Moisturisation: The Nivea Moisturizing Cream’s effectiveness at addressing dry skin is the result of its formulation’s dual approach to moisture management: humectant ingredients that draw water into the skin’s deeper epidermal layers, and occlusive ingredients that form a protective layer on the skin’s surface to prevent the transepidermal water loss that allows this moisture to escape. This combination — drawing moisture in and keeping it in — is the foundation of the long-lasting hydration that distinguishes genuinely effective moisturisers from those that provide only temporary surface comfort before the moisture evaporates
-
Universal Skin Application — The Multi-Purpose Moisturiser That Simplifies the Routine: The Nivea Moisturizing Cream’s formula is developed for safe and effective use on the face, hands, and body — the genuinely multi-purpose moisturiser that eliminates the need for separate face cream, hand cream, and body lotion products for consumers whose primary skincare need is reliable, deep daily hydration. This versatility makes the 75ml format particularly practical for travel, where its compact size and multi-use capability allow it to serve as the complete moisturising solution for an entire trip in a single product
