THE HISTORY OF NIVEA & THE CREAM TIN. The Nivea brand was founded by Paul Carl Beiersdorf a German pharmasist in 1882 and it took part in imoprtant researches related to medical industry. The name of the brand derives from the latin word'niveus' which means snow white. Nivea creme was only introduced in 1911 when Oscar Troplowitz, the owner of the Beiersdorf company discovered the first stable water-in-oil emulsifier called eucerin. This revolutionary material does not become rancide unlike the products of the preceeding times.

The basic recepie of the lotion is very simple: orange, bergamotte, levander, rose, lilac and lilly of the valley essence is added to the eucerin base and that's it. The range of products started to expand in the 1930s. The brand became an instant success among the wealthy clients in Germany and Austria and soon in the other parts of the world.

After the flourishing start of Nivea, in the 1930s due to the Nazi propaganda, the Jewish leaders of the company had to flee. The new leadership was forced to cooperate with the regime but at least the company survived the National Socialist period.

However, the ragged fate of the firm did not end in the 1930s. In the Second World War as a result of the severe bombings of the Allied Forces the firm was almost completely demolished and most of the western affiliates disappeared thus it had to regain its international popularity.

Today Nivea is among the most popular cosmetic brands being present in more than 200 countries. Was completely redesigned just 14 years after it was initially launched. In the 1920s, or the Golden Twenties as they were also known, a brand new zeitgeist emerged, and youth and leisure became the new buzzwords. NIVEA recognized it, responded to it, and adapted its brand profile accordingly.

The fancy art nouveau design of the original NIVEA tin was replaced by a simple, yet distinctive look. The year was 1925 and the look was the blue tin with white NIVEA lettering.
