Valentine’s Day may be over, but what about the other 364 days of the year? You always want to have touchable skin and kissable lips – NIVEA can help.

The harsh winter doesn’t take time to consider it’s affects on our skin, so it’s up to us to make sure we deliver moisture both from within with a healthy diet and hydration and from the outside with nourishing products that protect all of our weather worn areas like hands, elbows, lips and more.

Introducing a line of brand new products from the skin care company you’ve been able to trust for 100 years. These new products feature the latest moisturizing technology from NIVEA and will keep your skin and lips at their best so that you are always ready for that special moment of touch. Two of the new products include NIVEA’s new patent-pending HYDRA IQ technology that works to unleash deep, non-stop moisture that absorbs quickly into skin, providing moisture that lasts.

NIVEA Vitamin Swirl Lip – Its hydrating formula is enriched with Acai Berry and Wild Apple extracts, both rich in vitamins and antioxidants, to help maintain healthy looking, beautiful lips.

This is my personal favorite among the new lineup. I really like how the lip balm is both tinted lightly for day wear and has a delicious berry scent — but — no clingy, sweet flavor that I’d get tired of after all-day wear. I use it at least twice a day and my lips say ‘thank you’. I am going to purchase a second tube just to set on my bed nightstand to help me fight against the drying that happens at night because of the central heat.

NIVEA Natural Volume Lip – With light reflecting shimmer pigments, this product helps give  lips a brilliant, sparkling shine for full-looking lips without the burning or stinging feeling that others leave.

The Volume Lip is a fantastic lip gloss for those days when you want a little color, but your lips are just too dry for your normal lipstick. It goes on super smooth and gives you a slightly fuller, glossy appearance. I probably won’t use this for every day – around the house wear only because it’s a thicker gloss than I’m use to. But it will be great for going out to lunch or hitting the store. What I really appreciate about this product is that it doesn’t sting or give your lips that weird ‘buzz’ feeling like other plumpers.

NIVEA Extended Moisture Lotion – Keep your skin soft with this fast-absorbing lotion featuring HYDRA IQ technology and Provitamin B5. Extended Moisture Lotion provides up to 48 hours of relief for very dry, tight skin.

I can remember using NIVEA cream for most of my life. Both my mother and grandmother always had a jar in their bathroom and that energizing, clean smell would wake me up and make my skin feel awesome. Now NIVEA has evolved to give even longer lasting moisture to women who are on the go – 48 hours of moisture. The smell is still fantastic, but the Entended Moisture lotion relieves my dry, tight skin with only a small application in the morning. I really like how it goes on ultra smooth and creamy – but doesn’t stay greasy.

NIVEA Touch of Renewal Lathering Body Scrub – Also with HYDRA IQ technology, this product delivers an unmatched balance of exfoliation, rich cleansing and moisturizing lather.

I have so many body wash bottles in my bathroom cabinet. I probably have a little bit of an addiction, truth be told. All the scents and lathers – oh la la. The NIVEA Touch of Renewal is the best of my selection for leaving my skin feeling soft – even hours after my shower. I’m a big fan of the exfoliating microbeads as well – it’s like a mini massage for my skin every time I bathe.
