If your kids are anything like mine, they can be pickier about certain products than I am. For some reason they’ve never really liked me to put lotion on them. They are super active kids though and their soft skin can easily dry out and chap; especially now as the weather changes and things get cold. NIVEA Fairy Tins are a limited edition version of their iconic Creme which makes putting lotion on them a bit more fun and adventurous.
NIVEA teamed up with acclaimed illustrator Joelle Tourlonias and author Udo Weigelt to create five original short stories and illustrations to accompany them. These tins, and stories, make for a fun bedtime routine with my little ones. We can read the fairy-tales (there are 5 different ones!) together and I can put lotion on their sensitive, dry, or chapped skin while we get ready for bed.
These limited addition tins are filled with the NIVEA Creme we’ve always trusted with all the benefits that the classic NIVEA Creme has. It’s great for dry skin and provides rich, moisturizing care with Jacoba Oil and Vitamin E and is safe for the body, face, and hands. This time of year the kids cheeks chap so easily from playing outside and I don’t hesitate to apply NIVEA Creme to those sweet cheeks.
While there are days that bedtime seems like the monster at the end of the day and I dread getting them all to stay in bed, there are many days that I love that time. Snuggling in to read a story and spend those last few moments of the day together.
Be sure to grab the NIVEA fairy tins quickly, they’ll only be around US stores through the end of December 2015. 9You can grab a nice gift set of them over at Amazon too! Be sure to head over to see the fairy tins on the NIVEA site- there are some sweet downloads for coloring pages and more! These tins are darling, and a fabulous stocking stuffer (the above is actually my 6 year old’s Christmas Even present to open- a book, pajamas, and a NIVEA Fairy tin!
Thanks to NIVEA for sponsoring today’s bedtime post.

I have never noticed those tins, but they would be the perfect addition to the gift baskets I make for the teachers. I love the idea of adding kids stories to them, as well. Thanks so much for sharing
Amy Desrosiers says
I think my kids would be more apt to want to use the cream if they had these tins. Makes me want to get some just because!
Kelly says
We are picky about certian things as well. I am super picky about the kind of lotion I use. Nivea all the way for me!

I will have to get some of these NIVEA fairy tins for the stockings this year. It is great for how dry my skin gets in the winter.

Vera Sweeney says
I love Nivea tins!! I had no idea they made these fairy tins like this, my daughter would love them.
Danielle says
This is awesome. I’m going to have to get some for my son. He will sometimes let me put lotion products on him, but not near as often as I need to.
Jeanette says
LOVE the creativity on the tins! It reminds me of what old fashioned tins looked like.
Jennifer says
Those illustrations are super cute. I know for my kids, if things are cute and a bit more fun, that definitely makes them want to use/or do something. I think they would enjoy these tins a lot. And you’re right, the winter can be so harsh on their skin. We live in Florida so when the temps drop even a bit and into (what we feel is cold lol) the high 60’s-low 70’s, I really notice our skin drying out more, especially our lips.
Robin Rue (@massholemommy) says
Those are wicked cute. They would be perfect for my nieces.
Jennifer says
I think it’s so cute that we can get great skin care, and the kiddos can have cute little stories. I love this!
