Nivea Men After Shave Balm (Primer?)





If you are an active member of the online beauty community, you know that a lot of people have been using the Nivea Men After Shave Balm as a face primer. When I heard about this, I had to get my hands on it.

The first thing that I can tell you I liked was the price. You get 100ml for well under $10.00. That is a lot of product!





I was worried about the smell. It has the typical male product smell. I was pleased to find out that the smell does not stay after you apply it. Since it has a stronger scent, I was also worried that it would irritate my skin. I have used this almost everyday for a month, and it has not irritated my skin at all!

I apply this to cleansed skin right before I do my makeup, as you would with any face primer. It will leave your skin feeling a bit tacky, which provides a great base to apply your foundation. However, it does not stay tacky.

It is a great product. It makes your skin feel soft and your makeup go on nice and smooth. It really helps your makeup last throughout the day. It does not contain alcohol, which means it isn't drying to the skin. What more could you want in a primer?

I highly recommend giving this a try.

Thank you all so much for reading. I will talk to you in my next post.

  1. I think I'm in heaven with the scent of this haha. I keep forgetting to apply primer so this always gets shoved to the back of my make-up collection but it is great especially as a hydrating primer!
