Skincare routines have an indispensable step - sunscreen. For those interested in Nivea sunscreen, here's a fair review for you. This line is budget-friendly, not overly hyped, but with a certain fan base. Let's review this product objectively.
The Appearance of Nivea Sunscreen
This sunscreen is named UV Face Shine Control SPF50, specifically for the face. The design comes in a familiar plastic tube, very practical. I find it comfortable to hold, with its two-tone color scheme of green and yellow quite eye-catching, yet not too flashy, essentially harmonious. The product has an aluminum seal to prevent counterfeiting and tampering. All ingredient information is printed on the packaging. It comes in a cardboard box, matching the inner core.

How does it feel when using it?
I've always been looking for a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a high SPF. This one temporarily meets my criteria. It has a non-greasy finish. The color tone is light yellow, slightly dense, cream-like but requires only a small amount, and takes a relatively short time to absorb.
At first glance, I was a bit worried that this sunscreen might feel sticky. But after using it, I found that it doesn't feel sticky at all, doesn't alter skin tone, isn't greasy, and absorbs quickly. Oh, and for those concerned, Nivea sunscreen doesn't sting the eyes.
Review of Nivea Sunscreen
However, there's one thing I don't like about this sunscreen, and that's its strong scent. If you're sensitive to scents, you might find this product uncomfortable. While it doesn't feel sticky, it does have the downside of potentially causing yellow stains on clothing. So, be careful when applying it to your neck or face. This happens because Nivea sunscreen contains Avobenzone.
Especially, this one contains denatured alcohol, so if you're prone to irritation, you need to pay attention. As for the price of this sunscreen, it's a steal. At only around 150-200k VND per tube, it's super affordable.
To sum up, if you're wondering whether to buy Nivea sunscreen, I think you should give it a try.
This sunscreen provides deep, long-lasting sun protection, broad-spectrum coverage, and can even be used during treatment cycles. Just pay a little attention to the ingredients to see if your skin reacts to any of them. And always remember to do a patch test before applying it to your face.
Once it's all set, it feels dry and comfortable, not sticky, doesn't leave streaks or alter skin tone. It controls oil reasonably well, slightly transfers onto clothes or masks but doesn't change complexion. A great option for students, so give Nivea sunscreen a try and see how it goes.
