The packaging
The package of BB Cream is white and quite unobtrusive. It is quite typical for Nivea and has a wider tube opening. Here you should watch something that you will not have too much product at one time.
The BB Cream is available in 2 shades: light and medium to dark. The BB Cream smells very pleasant to the typical Nivea scent.

The consistency and color
The consistency of the BB Cream is creamy and spreads easily. It attracts quite a quickly and leaves a nice finish. As a tinted day cream. Powdering is not absolutely necessary. Also it is not spotted or crumbly.
The SPF 10 but I find rather ridiculous. A BB Cream is characterized by a relatively high SPF. Just for comparison: the Missha M Perfect Cover has an SPF of 42!
And now the color. The definition of 'light' I find seeeehr getting used in this case. : D Seriously, Nivea ?! This should be light ?!
I think the BB Cream but quite dark and really has a strong orange touch.
The effect and opacity
As I said, the cream can be really apply very well by the beautiful consistency and spreads easily with your fingers. It is absorbed quickly, leaving behind a smooth complexion. It smoothes and moisturizes something.
The opacity I would describe as mild to moderate. Small pimples are not completely covered. Here you have to work over with concealer - but who has so NEN karottigen Concealer ?! ; D
Conclusion
For me, the Nivea is 5-in-1 BB Cream a tired attempt a tinted day cream as BB Cream for sale. The color is really dark and orange, too dark for me. The SPF is for me rather a joke and in summer absolutely insufficient.
For me, the BB Cream is not recommended. Since there are even on the German market significantly better and I will continue to cuddle with my Missha. ;)
