This new NIVEA product replaced my foundation, my day cream and my SPF (and I won’t go back)

Every summer, the same refrain: we are desperately looking for the right product. The one that really protects against UV rays, that moisturizes without sticking, that lets the skin breathe but also gives a nice complexion. In short, the perfect treatment. And every summer, we often end up giving up on one criterion. Too oily, not light enough, too covering, not protective enough. As if we necessarily had to make a compromise.

But this year, something new caught our attention. A treatment designed for those who no longer want to choose. Who want everything. Radiance, protection, comfort, freshness. All in a single, intuitive, and ultra-practical gesture. Spoiler: it really ticks all the boxes.

NIVEA Sun: the new essential step in our routine

Signed by NIVEA Sun, leader in sun care in France, this new product is aimed at all those who want to streamline their routine without sacrificing anything. The principle is simple: a tinted SPF50+ facial fluid, with an ultra-light texture, which deeply hydrates, evens out the complexion and effectively protects against UVA/UVB and blue light. A sort of gifted BB sun cream, which does everything in a single gesture.

Its formula incorporates two star active ingredients. On the one hand, Licochalcone A, a powerful antioxidant which strengthens the skin’s natural defenses against oxidative stress. On the other, Hyaluronic Acid, which needs no introduction, for intense hydration and an immediate freshness effect. Result: the skin is soft, luminous, protected, without overload. A true hybrid treatment, at the crossroads of sunscreen, skincare and makeup.

Perfect complexion, bare skin effect

Available in two shades (Light and Medium), this fluid offers subtle, very natural coverage. Enough to blur imperfections while letting the skin breathe. Upon application, it blends instantly, without leaving a greasy film or streaks. And above all, it resists perspiration and lasts all day, even under 30 degrees. The glow without the mask effect: check.

We also liked its ability to be forgotten: no feeling of suffocation, no sticky effect, no lint under makeup. It’s typically the kind of product you slip into your beauty bag for the holidays… but also the rest of the year.

A smart and responsible beauty gesture

Designed to easily integrate into a skincare routine, this fluid quickly becomes a reflex. A small amount is enough to hydrate, protect and even out the complexion. No more need to multiply products: it replaces moisturizer, foundation and SPF. And all for $12.90 for 40 ml. An ultra-effective formula, at a very affordable price. The launch is planned for September 2025: perfect timing for those who want to prolong the glow of summer… or start fall off on the right foot.

And to make matters worse, the brand has also taken care of the environmental impact: the bottle contains 94% recycled plastic, and its cap is made from 50% recycled plastic. A welcome approach in a segment where sustainability still remains too rare.
