NIVEAscored September 2026

NIVEA was an early leader in localization as it invested in locally relevant talent. And it has long leveraged a global design template. It's only major weakness is navigation -- it still relies on a splash global gateway menu and leaves any visual link to this gateway off of web pages. If you look at the current header, there is ample room for a globe icon (in place of the cookie icon) for a permanent global gateway. Doing so would easily elevate this website to the next level.
