As most of you already know by now I'm a mom to two wonderful kids. Whenever I buy things for their use or consumption, the health aspect is always a primary consideration. Thus when I received some samples from Nivea's Pure & Natural line, I was excited to see a pack of Nivea Baby Pure & Natural wipes.
According to the package, Nivea Baby Pure & Natural wipes have no parabens (which can cause cancer), no alcohol (so it's not drying), no perfume (so it's less likely to cause allergies), and is made with organic chamomile. It's 100% biodegradable too and it's flushable for greater convenience.
I was impressed by how thick and sturdy a single wipe was. There's a faint plant-like and grassy smell but that's about it. It's not overly wet too -- it has just the right level of moisture.
My son pulled at both ends of a single wipe and it would not break apart. It just stretched. It's that durable!
I'm very happy with its cleaning power too. My daughter came home from school with marker strokes all over her hands.
I used a wipe to remove them and it was very effective, so it's definitely nice to tote around in your bag for quick, easy, and safe cleaning. A pack of Nivea Baby Pure & Natural wipes costs P150 and contains 50 pieces.
Apart from the wipes, Nivea Pure & Natural has three types of deodorant. Since it's so hot here in our country it's kind of inevitable for me to use deodorants in order to prevent embarrassing stains on my clothes. Just like the baby wipes, the deodorants are free of parabens. They also contain 0% aluminum salts so they won't clog pores. Since all of them are colorless, they won't leave white marks on your dark-colored clothes too. This is definitely good news for me because as it is we're already exposed to way too many harmful chemicals for our own good.
The first variant is the Nivea Pure & Natural Deodorant Spray. Personally I like the spray type best. There's minimal skin contact and there's almost no drying time needed after application making it ideal when you're in a hurry. A 150ml spray costs P170.
The next variant is the Nivea Pure & Natural roll-on deodorant. This is the type I like least no matter what brand I try. :p
You have this ball on top of the bottle which you literally roll so that the liquid product can be dispensed.
I don't like roll-ons because they go on wet and I have to wait a bit before they completely dry. This one isn't bad though because as you can see it goes on clear. The main advantage of roll-ons is the fact they are usually priced the lowest. Case in point, the Nivea Pure & Natural roll-on deodorant costs P50 for 25ml and P89 for 50ml.
Last but not least is the Nivea Pure & Natural deodorant stick. If deodorant spray is not available then this is the type I would go for.
Nivea Pure & Natural deodorant stick is solid.
Like the roll-on, you rub it onto your skin. A solid stick has the advantage of going on drier compared to the roll-on though. A 40ml Nivea Pure and Natural deodrant stick costs P155.All three variants are scented with the essence of Jasmine. I'm not big on floral scents and so I'm kind of wishing that they just retained the plant-y grassy aroma of the baby wipes. It's not a big deal though because after application you can't really smell your underarm area anymore, hehe. :D
So... would you like to try some Nivea Pure & Natural products? Nivea was generous enough to give me a whole lot of samples and I'd like to share them with you. In light of recent events concerning DTI permits and what-not I'd like to make it clear that I am not required by Nivea to hold a contest and it is entirely my decision to share their gifts with my blog readers. That said, this is definitely not a commercial venture. :p
