My go-to after-shave balm. Inexpensive and widely available. As an added bonus, it soothes razor burns and irritations.
Thanks for reviewing it. I’ve been using this for almost 2 decades and I wasn’t sure if it was time for a switch. It’s a life saver if you’re shaving 💯
Love this stuff. I found out that my local supermarket had them on closeout so I bought 'em all up, 7 bottles for $2.99 each with no tax! I'm set for at least 2 years with as little as you need with this stuff lol
TheAnimePiper wow . I just paid $7 in Toronto for one
i just paid 8.99 for one in vancouver canada
5$ in milwaukee for one and this takes the burn right away
2.50 in uk 😀
$6 in the U.S. currently.
I love this balm! I've used it when I started shaving and it's literally the only thing that has never changed in my shaving life. Great product.
is it good for using on groin parts or private parts
Picked this up at Target today for $4. The scent is great. I didn't shave today but my face felt dry so I put some on and wow my skin feels really hydrated and soft. Another great product recommendation thanks Nick!
Just bout this one my skin was irritating a little bit after my first time shaving hopefully its good on my skin
This is probably one of the best aftershave bombs I’ve ever used. I have extremely sensitive skin and I have to do a pretty lengthy routine just to get my skin ready to be shaved. And even then my face breaks out or has horrible razor burn. This cream definitely helps alleviate it along with skin bracer. It’s almost the only thing that works.
Edit: I have now finished my original bottle. Now I have removed the logos, and cleaned it, and I am now using it to store my aqua Velva aftershave.
This is the most perfect review ive ever seen.. wasn't disappointed in the slightest bit, he covers everything!
This is also by far my favorite aftershave. Really soothes well and makes my skin feel great. I also shave my head and use it on my head as well.
I swear by Nivea products, i have very sensitive skin and every other make i've tried brings me out in spots not just balm but face wash and exfoliating scrub and moisturiser too. So Nivea will always be my first choice.
Nivea is amazing. I have all three of them, and they really help soothe the face. The Cooling one is really good. I use my Nivea most days, certainly one most should have in their arsenal.
Best after shave I've ever used . I used to have skin problems that I'd get after i shaved but thanks to this product I now have clear smoth skin after every shave !!
I too use this product on occasion as an everyday aftershave. Its a GREAT all purpose after shave, its got a clean quick fading scent. Not thick or runny, almost a perfect consistency. Its great even just as a lotion! This really is a great product and HIGHLY recommended
Finally gave it a whirl, you are not kidding, fantastic stuff and the scent is amazing.
Aftershave balm, dude.....so after😆!
I've tried different post shave balms and this is by far my favorite.
for a dude whos channel centers around shaving, you can rock a beard.
Thanks man! I like having a beard, but I also like being clean shaven
@Brian T bruh theres a reason theres such thing called beard oil 😂😂😂😂
I love this stuff, and as you pointed out it's one hell of a bargain.
I generally splash a mixture of cold water, witch hazel, and Masters Bay Rum on my face (I mix them in my palm), and then follow it up with the Nivea Sensitive Balm just before the last bit of the splash evaporates. I also use it as a face lotion on non-shaving days.
I have recently started wet shaving and I realized I get sensitive after using my cologne. I reluctantly bought this thinking it won't have a masculine smell, but it actually smooths, moisturizes & smells great!!! Also I love the shave videos sir!
I have the cooling nivea balm. I use it after applying bump patrol. it's awesome. my wife also loves the nivea scent.
1uheepwizard just started using it. I am a black male. I have used Magic Shave for years. So recently I got a Braun electric shaver and I love it. So used this. What do you use as a after shave?
This is the best, budget friendly after shave balm I've tried yet.
You should make a vid about Nivea aftershave. I just started using it last week and love the stuff. Got plenty of compliments on the scent, too.
I just picked this up today based on your recommendation. I really like the smell and the feel on my skin. I will enjoy using it with my shaves especially on my neck
I get shaving rash very easily because I have sensitive skin, so I began using this balm and it reduced my shaving rash quite dramatically... I love it..
I've found it's helped when ever I've got cuts or rashes from shaving.
Nivea sensitive was my favorite aftershave for years, currently trying others to see how they compare
Hi Nick! I've been using this for years and it did a fantastic job of calming down my irritated skin and razor burn from shaving with a cartridge razor. I also really like the delicate scent which is not too overpowering. The ingredients are also very nice including hamamelis or whitch hazel as it is called which helps to desinfect and support the healing of the skin. When I started DE shaving and discovered Proraso I also bought a sample of their ASB from their "sensitive" white line and I think it works even better. In addition I really love the scent of the Proraso white line. You should give it a try.
Greetings from Germany

Been using it for twenty years, it's hard to tell if it has changed but the bottle definitely hasn't much. It works well, you need the tiniest amount too... a bottle lasts me most of the year.
I want to say that I think it used to have more alcohol in it and was a bit stingier but I'm not sure if I'm misremembering it.
grabbed a bottle of this stuff a few weeks back and absolutely love it. makes my skin feel amazing after my morning shave :)
I'm not sure, but since using this, I've gotten ingrown hairs on my neck. I shower shave everytime and use a best Badger brush and proraso's sandalwood cream from the tube.
I use a Merkur 34C with Astra blades. I follow up with this and a moisturizer.
Great stuff. Perfect for when you're shaving at night and you don't feel the need for a scent big scent. Just rub on some alum and protect with Nivea. As much as you love Nivea, you may find it nice to have a lil' bottle of Stirling with hazel balm as well, because you can use it to reinforce or even replace the Sharp Dressed Man scent. I actually got a complement today and I didn't even shave... All I did was put some SDM balm on my face because it felt dry. The Nivea soaks into the skin a bit quicker and easier than the Stirling, but the Stirling stuff is still great for your skin and may even be more hydrating/lotion-y.
You cannot ever go wrong with any product made by Germany.👍👍👍
I have 3 bottles put away !!! I use regular aftershave first for killing germs etc., or i use witchazel then i use the Nivea Balm.
Good stuff !!!
Yep Nivea post shave balm smells AWESOME! It's curiously similar to HUGO Boss cologne... at least to me anyways.
its really good, I swear, it even helps for beard growth that too soft hairs in starting and then harden's it slowly slowly, I really recommend it to be used by starters specially because it helps hair growth and I think he said he used it as a moisture, it would be that the hair growth in his hands will be probably more than the normal
I just started wet shaving and use coconut oil pre and post shave, it's awesome and inexpensive.
One thing I've started doing is mixing a few drops of aftershave or lotion with the nivea before applying, adds another layer of scent to it.
The first day i put it on, and the first thing i hear when i enter my class is i smell nice 👍🏻 great product
Anyone know what's better. Duke cannon, Harry's, or this one
I use this for every shave. I mainly shave my head and have a full beard. However right I am doing seasonal work that requires to be clean shaven. Use this on my face and it keeps my face from drying out. Works great for the head shavers too.
i have just started with the balm smells nice and it tells me what exactly whats in there good video aswell nick
Picked up some more Nivea after shave balm today. Some retailers are discounting it here in Scotland and I managed to pick it up for £2.63 , a total bargain. Surely the packaging and glass bottle would cost that alone ? Anyway it's an amazing product and why would you use anything else at this price. Keep up the good work Nick , I love your channel and your reviews of products.
I never tried Nivea Post Shave Balm before. My dad had some but it was the alcohol one. Burned my face and stinged alot. Bought the Sensitive Nivea Post Shave Balm and it's amazing.
I listened to a lot of positive stuff but the one thing that immediately made me completely trust it even before trying is "it's a German product"... I've never known a bad German product, from cars to blenders. Thanks for that part, all I had to hear 😂👍
As I live in Canada, I mainly use polar bear oil as after shave, it works great.
My daily ASB too, great stuff, 0 parabens, 0 alcohol, 0 silicone (dimethicone) and it's a bargain! Thanks Nick and all the best, Dan.
Outside of witchhazel and Clubman, its the only wet shaving-related product I buy from chain retail stores. It pairs well with any aftershave.
I've heard you rave about this stuff before, and your raving about HGTAM soaps was spot on so I will be trying this soon. I have some proraso sensitive balm left, but it's dwindling quickly. I really like it, but would prefer to be able to use cash in a B&M rather than CC online so I hope this lives up to your praise! I hate to admit, but I've switched to VanDerHagen soap (after watching your mild/warn review) for the same reason of avoiding using a CC online. I LOVE HGTAM, but am paranoid/conspiracist about buying online anymore...
Just bout this one my skin was irritating a little bit after my first time shaving hopefully its good on my skin
As a guy with very oily skin after shave balms tend to give me loads of pimples. What's more is that I just couldn't shave everyday while using this very product as it didn't help with reducing post shave irritation at all. Once I switched to splashes (specifically Pitralon) with enough alcohol in them to get you drunk as a skunk by simply smelling them, my issues were immediately reduced significantly. Nowadays I truly swear by my beloved "stingers"! I'm not an isolated case though as my best friend made the same experience.
Nick, did you ever try Neutrogena after shave balm ? It is good, protective, heavier than the Nivea. It takes a while to soak in but your face feels so good for many hours. I just love the stuff. They also make the same thing with sunscreen in it !!
My mom bought me this, but I didn’t know what it was, thank you for helping me
Good aftershave. For 20 years I use it. My face skin is really still young.
Yeah this is an outstanding product. I own several aftershave products and I think this is as good if not better than most! Great review!
Thanks for the recommendation. I've been using Shea Moisture's tea tree aftershave with good results, but as I have picky skin that tends to be oily but somehow also really dry during winter, I thought I'd supplement it with a balm to ward off the dreaded post-shower/shave skin flakes. I had pretty much written off all of the name brand shaving and skin care products that are readily available in stores, but Nivea seems to be the exception. "Sensitive" is usually a distant afterthought in products marketed for sensitive skin, but this really left me moisturized and smelling great and with no residual redness or dryness, even 12 hours later and when paired with the alcohol-free astringent. I'll also try it with Thayer's. I guess my only disappointment is that it doesn't have any SPF so I need an extra layer of lotion on outdoorsy days. But I'm just shooting for the moon I suppose. You can't expect everything from an aftershave lotion...but this one comes close!
Nearly 20 years I've been using this product 👍🏾👍🏾
I picked this up on your recommendation and I like it a lot. Because it's a weak scent (nice and clean, just not strong), I pair it with my soaps that have scents that I can't match aftershaves to. Sometimes it seems to strengthen the scent of the soap and make it linger. I have to ask, have you tried any of Stirling's aftershave balms (specifically the balms, not the splash)? I have the barbershop, and I love the scent, and it gives an amazing cooling effect. Also, I've been picking up more Nivea products in general since your review. I admittedly always overlooked it because it was so cheap, but I have yet to use anything I didn't like. They all seem to be great products that are made even better because you can get them at our local drugstore, or even grocery store, which is where I've been getting mine.
I use to use that. I'm not sure why I stopped using it. I use another one of there products. but I think I'm going to go back to that.
I have a question Nick, do you ever use an alcohol based aftershave with a shave balm at the same time? and what order would you apply? thx..
Nick you have to try the Duke Cannon after shave balm. It's magical
Thank you for actually making a SHAVING video for this. All I can find is Primer use. I have really sensitive skin and I shave my legs/underarms/what have you (yes, I'm a woman) and all the "after shaving" products for women destroy my skin and I end up in tears. I'm planning on buying this and trying it out. I don't really care about smell (women's products smell for two minutes).
Hey Nick! I see you like Nivea products. Have you ever tried the Nivea after shave energy splash? It comes in a clear bluish glass bottle that is the same shape and size I think as the balm. I found it at ShopRite and Rite Aid so far but I think it can be found at other drugstore/grocery stores. It smells great, has a minimal alcohol burn, and leaves my face feeling great!!
I use this stuff too. It's better than Blue de Chanel which costs 20x the price.
Only I use it after shaving my face. Not my neck.
This is a great product. After viewing your review of this product I gave it a try and I am happy with the results. Hey Nick, have you reviewed the Pacific shave cream?
Love that stuff wish Walmart still had it
I love the nivia shave cream . Now I am going to get this . Thanks . It's around $7. 50 in Canada.
personally i use taconic shave after shave balm unscented and it is really good. I almost never get razor burn and when i get get one it goes away quickly.
This is a great balm. Works extremely well for me with moisture and care. If you haven't tried it yet, please go out and buy it. You will not be disappointed.
It's OK. I think it's kinda thick for oily skin like mine. Smells good but in summer it melts smooth off your face. Haven't seen a dermatologist but not sure if this or liquid splash types are better. I started at 16 using splash then switched at 25. Now 32, think I'll go back to splash.
I use the regular balm. But living in Japan, some products just aren’t offered. I may give this a try if Amazon US doesn’t kill me on shipping.
Just checked. I’d have to buy 3 bottles and it would run a bit over $7/bottle. Not bad since I have to pay about $6/bottle here.
You should try the Nivea after shave splash then put the balm on. I found it at cvs.
Hi Nick
I picked up a bottle at my local Walmart for $5.54, I agree with you, it is very soothing after the close shave a safety razor gives and has a very nice scent. I like that it is absorbed quickly and does not overpower. Very good advise as usual.
This is my favorite balm ever
Hi friend, can you tell me if balm is used after removing the hair on your face or wearing your own beard?
I tried this because you highly recommended it, but unfortunately, it ended up giving me a mild chemical burn. I don't know if I had an adverse reaction to one of the ingredients or it was because my skin is really sensitive, but I haven't gone back to it. Can you recommend another aftershave lotion? Thanks- I started using a safety razor after watching your videos!
Use this all the time it's awsome
this nivea stuff is good - it kills any razor burn and sensitivity after a close shave - ie r41 really is good stuff , you really dont need alot id say a £00.05 p size drop , or whatever that is in the us ??? otherwise it feels like you put too much low factor sun lotion on you... really lovely stuff .
Hello, I’m new to aftershave. I’ve been shaving for 10 years but have never used aftershave. I’ve always had sensitive skin, especially under my chin, my chin, and about my chin. I’m looking for something that helps with the sensitivity, bumps, redness, etc. As I stated, I’ve never used aftershave, from the videos I’ve reviewed, I’ve noticed individuals applying it around the neck. If I were to use this product on my face after I’ve shaved it entirely, am I going to want to apply it all over my face, or just around my neck?
Hey Nick, I really enjoy the Nivea balm because of the scent and alcohol free soothing performance. I really enjoy the Nivea shaving cream as well. Have you tried the Kiss My Face moisture shaves yet? Great ingredient list and fantastic performance as well in my opinion. I'm curious what you think. You should do a lather and shave review!
love this stuff! side note question that is face related; what type of face wash do you use regularly?
hey nick, great review! my personal favourite is the exact same balm but in the "sensitive cool" version (not sure if it is available in the US). it just gives an additional cooling sensation which feels really nice.
oh and another thing about your nivea sensitive shaving cream! for some reason you can't buy this shaving cream over here in europe (!?!). seems odd but i could only find the "original mild" shaving cream...
greetings from germany :)
That's my favourite after shave too so I use it as well after I've shaved.
Absolutely great product...I'm using the same...Very nice...
This is my favorite daily aftershave balm. Always watch for deals. Lasts a long time. I always have a backup.
Im 26 grown woman why am i watching this??? 😆😆😆clickbait handsome guy... I'll click many times as I could😆😆😆😆😆😆
lmaooo you the clickbait
Ssshhhhhh..🤫
😆😆😆
I went out and got some
So far I like it . It was $7. At Walmart in Toronto .
How is this with oily skin, prone to break out with pimples? I found that using too many aftershaves with drying effects, tend to cause my skin to break out with pimples.
Appreciate your videos I've learned allot
I don't recommend the NIVEA aftershave balm. I recommend the Gillette aftershave GEL, this is a great product, I always used in Perú, but after some time it become more expensive. When I start to use it, its price was 7 peruvian soles ( like 2.5 dollars) it was in 2000 year. But now in Perú it cost 30 soles aprox 10 dollars. Now in 2020 I am in Spain and here it's more difficult find the Gillete Aftershave and it cost like 8 euros and only I could find it in "El Corte Inglés". happily i was able to find its replacement: BABARIA AFTERSHAVE GEL 3 EFECTOS and only cost 2.25 euros. I recommend it!!!
I bought this in Mexico and I noticed that it is German, very good ingredients. I do not know if it is paraben free but I like it (my be the FSC pine drawing or the letters PAP means that it is paraben free, I think this may be kind of certification. I will appreciate if if you make a review of Florena Men ENERGY After Shave FLUID mit Guarana 100ml 3.4floz which is German. Thank you.
Hmmmm... never tried nivea products. Seen them everywhere, thought they maybe soso. Ill have to give them a try. I'm drawn to barbershop fragerances in general. I use an unscented balm after shave after I shave then after half hour I'll use a classic after shave like Pinaud Clubman---Great stuff.
But thanks again I'll try it, especialy since its cheap and easily atainable
Hey Nick, have you tried the nivea sensitive splash? It's just as refreshing and replenishing as the balm, just a little lighter although I probably still prefer the balm. And still no alcohol of course
Can I use it on my face?
I have a problem with razor burn on my neck and I want to get a lotion or after shave to help the irritation and dry skin. My question is, what would you recommend and would the smell also clash with the deodorant I use, Old Spice Swagger. Great videos by the way!
I say give it a try. The scent is mildly floral to my nose, but not in a feminine way. It's nice and clean, and not overpowering.
Overall, I find it relatively neutral and It seems to dissipate quickly.
I wanted nothing to do with this stuff because it was not "traditional" Plus I have somewhat oily skin and didn't want to get this stuff into my pores. Being new to wet shaving I would cause irritation to my face because of a lack of good technique. I finally gave in to Nicks advice and purchased the Nivea post shave balm. Now with only a few exceptions I put on the Nivea before applying one of the myriad of aftershaves and colognes I now own.
Coffee Drinker Awesome! I agree. I have tried many, many other post shave balms, as this has been the best - its some amazing stuff
+nick shaves I bought this a year ago, based on this video; and I'm still loving it! Thanks, brother😉!
i use itto shave with then put the moistrizer on after
I have very very sensitive skin. I never use after shave because , 1. I have extremely sensitive skin. 2. I also have oily skin. It also doesnt help out i live in central florida. My question is this, after a shave should i wait a while maybe 10-15 minutes to apply this balm or any aftershave? Or will i be fine if I applied it directly after a shave. My set up is currently. Futur with feather blades and a pure badger brush from the art of shaving with caties bubbles gardenia. pleasae help lol
I love the irony, that more women than men use this product, as a primer foundation thingy, as it holds their makeup better than those 50+$ products :P You women, let us men have something for ourselves for a change, gez :D
I don't use this because it doesn't burn. Best part of the shave is good burning splash.
i bought this aftershave balm before really seeing into what non-comodegenic and parabens were.... i never knew this was such a hit product lol
Im all the more happy to have this now since everyone is hailing this aftershave balm so much :p
got a dual combo pack for $8!
and the way u pronounce balm....
aftershave bom
lol xD
Hey Nick, I had a few questions about the Proraso aftershave products. Is there any difference between the aftershave balm and the liquid cream aftershave? Which is actually more effective and how does it perform compared to the Nivea sensitive balm?
Recently switched to DE shaving and have been using alcohol based witch hazel aftershave ever since. I had the Nivea laying around and tried it today. It was horrible, I got no relief for skin irritation, quite in the contrary the feeling got worse. Never going to use it again.
nick what watch are you wearing its very manly
