    Has Nivea balm now changed, too?

    I bought a bottle about a year ago, and since I don't use it all the time, and not in the warm weather, I still have some left in the bottle. I was looking up who had it available locally, and I started reading reviews on the websites, and people were claiming that their latest bottles weren't like the product that they knew and loved. They claim that it is now thicker and doesn't absorb into the skin.

    I've been using it for the last few days, and I really like it. But is this yet aother reformulation of a well-loved product for the worse? Good grief!

    I've been dry so I almost bought some just today but instead went with a lotion by Zum (frankincense and myrrh).

    I have some Afta in my supply, which I like too, and costs less than Nivea.

    Would have bought Afta but Publix didn't have any.

    I heard that Afta is not allowed on the Starship Enterprise, anyway.
