Nivea is a globally recognized personal care brand owned by the German company Beiersdorf AG, first introduced in 1911 by pharmacist Oscar Troplowitz. The brand's name derives from the Latin word 'niveus,' meaning snow-white, reflecting the color of its original moisturizing cream. The iconic Nivea Creme, housed in its distinctive blue tin, became the world's first stable oil-in-water emulsion skin cream and remains one of the best-selling moisturizers globally more than a century after its creation. Today, Nivea offers an extensive range of skincare and personal care products including body lotions, face creams, sunscreens, deodorants, lip care, shower gels, men's grooming products, and the Nivea Men sub-brand. The brand is available in over 200 countries and is one of the largest skincare brands in the world by revenue. Nivea is recognized for its scientific approach to skincare, backed by Beiersdorf's extensive research and development operations. The brand has earned consumer trust through decades of delivering reliable, dermatologically tested products at accessible price points. Key product lines include Nivea Soft, Nivea Q10, Nivea Sun, and Nivea Essentially Enriched, catering to diverse skincare needs across all age groups and skin types worldwide.
